    I just heard this about 20 minutes ago, and was like "Wow."


    Robin Lopez, Thomas Robinson, Lamarcus Alridge, and Joel Freeland had a COMBINED total of 12 rebounds last night.

    Nicolas Batum: 13 rebounds.

    Batum looks like a good rebounder because he plays with Aldridge, the wimpiest big man in NBA history.

    Lopez got into foul trouble.

    Robinson and Freeland each have 1 year. What is their rebound/foul ratio? They don't know how to play.

    H, why don't you find a quiet hour to sit down with him and have a talk about wimping out on shot opportunities.

    Appeal to his French dignity. Slap him in the face so he'll take it out on the next team he plays. But in a friendly way so you can have more talks.

    Hcp why does it ALWAYS have to be about u and ur personal relationships with these dudes?? Did u not hear what Batum said about quick once he was gone? Threw him away like yesterday's garbage! U think these guys are really ur boys?? Hahaha. He is an average player that got his ass whipped by Pj tucker! Jeez be fair for once please! Batum is over rated!

    With Matthews' arthritis, heart problems, and senility setting in, why not try him at the Rebounding Forward position? That's what they called it in the 70s. Back then, a guy his size and width played SF, with minutes at RF.

    Meanwhile, Aldridge is unhappy at his shooting being limited. Give him a few minutes each game at Guard while Wes rebounds. Or at least design plays for surprise role interchanges by those two.

    What does this even mean? How did I get into this? All I hear is how horrible of a player Nic is, but he yanks down 13 boards and nobody says anything. What does this have to do with my relationship with the players?

    Hickson may be a hard worker but he's not a team player. On numerous occasions Lopez boxed out last night providing rebounds for others. Batum obviously benefitted.

    I wish Batum would just be a little tougher and more consistent. Take it to the hoop more.
