Damn, Ronnie Brewer is stepping UP without our glue Luo!


LOL! Dirk with the play-by-play, SHUT IT DOOOOOOOOOOWN ;D

.. and of course the week after I drop Austin Daye due to lack of playing time, he gets playing time and does like he did during the preseason >_<

Problem with Detroit's players is that they are so inconsistent, which is to be expected of young guys. That last foul looked like Lebron lost the ball, and while trying to regain control got slapped on the forearm by Daye. Not sure how they usually call those, but I'd assume they usually give the benefit of the doubt to the shooter.

I was thinking about the blocking foul Daye got when LeBron delivered his submission for the Oscar award

.. also, the Bulls have been manhandled in the paint, just goes to show how big part of the team Deng & Gibson is..


AND WHY IS SCALABRINE GOING FOR A FUCKING THREE!?!?!?

Oh yea, that foul was kinda bogus. Even with Brewer playing well, Bulls are surely missing Deng, and they play Miami this Sunday with Wade returning....

Luckily Taj Gibson will be back for that game, we need someone who can scrap with Bosh and rebound on all plays

Finally Pau Gasol is playing aggressively! I love it.

Griffin has been incredible this half so far as was Caron Butler in the first quarter. Good game so far, holding out for the Lakers to take this one.

i feel like the knicks being terrible is a trend that wont end for a while.
they always manage to buy a "superstar" and have that superstar miserably fail

the whole offense is ugly and players who were excellent before are consistently underperforming


Buying the two "superstars" that they did was just a dumb move. It seems like they where trying to create a good fantasy team instead of a good NBA team. They got a PF and SF who have played their entire careers with hall of fame PGs and need a solid PG to play effectively and they simply cannot produce the same when the PG position changes every other month. Also the way that they got Carmelo, trading away half of their starting roster, was a terrible idea, if he really wanted to play in New York he would have just waited the extra months and signed in the off-season (yes I know who would have had to take less money due to the new CBA, but he could have made that up in promotions and other mediums) and allowed the team to keep their roster in tack.

The second problem is that both of these guys are used to being #1 and having the entire offense go through them. If you watch them play they don't know how to play off the ball offense, they'll pass the ball to someone and then just stand around and wait to get the ball back again. Carmelo and Stoudemire have no idea how to play together and are both used to playing styles that contradict each others. Stoudemire is used to playing the pick and roll game while Carmelo seems to only know how to play iso.

Final issue with this team that is leading to all the ugliness is the lack of a true PG. As good as Shumpert has been he is a rookie who has been thrust into the starting PG role (I personally think he is a SG), with two all stars on his team; there is no rookie in the world that would know how to handle that.

Indeed they are. Definitely a team to watch out for in the east once the playoffs roll around.

Amazing to see what happens when the Lakers offense focuses on Kobe, Bynum AND Pau. Artest looked good despite playing 38 minutes too, which is a great sign for the Lakers if he can keep it up.

Very scary. I said they'd have a shot at top 4 in the East but this is ridiculous: Indiana has played 11 road games and only 6 home games. Very possible for them to have a big win streak sometime soon.

Billups, maybe?

Did anyone see the pat Pau gave Paul at the end of the game? Holy shit, how good must that have felt for Gasol! :p

.. also; Gordon rejects extension offer (no surprise really), where do you guys see him going when his time is up in New Orleans?
