    Here's the problem with Boozer, he would completely stunt the development of Robinson. I think he'd be great off the bench, and he's exactly the kind of vet we need, but you might as well deal Robinson if you bring in Boozer.

    Kobe will be traded for Garnett contract and Marcus Thornton at the deadline. Nets are only team that can afford him and Lakers will want to get out of his contract for free agent money that final season.

    True, true about T-rob. Plus, Boozer is still making quite a bit, IIRC.

    Indiana is really pissing me off. Up by 15 in the second quarter they promptly turn the ball over on what seemed like 6 consecutive possessions, and start bickering with each other about who's fault it is. Now up only 4 points at the half. Million dollar talent and 10 cent brains.

    It's to be expected. They are not contenders because of the east. They would be an average team in the West.

    Indiana is like a monster truck. They kick ass for about 20 minutes then they run out of gas.

    Miami is like a Honda. Steady, reliable and get the job done at the end of the day.

    LeBron and Wade may be the most efficient duo of all time. Those guys are always over 50% shooting.

    Paul George gets to the line a lot off some bullshit.

    Hibbert is nigh on useless.

    The one person who would LOVE to have Hibbert here is Meyers. It'd take Meyers out of the picture as the most polarizing player on the team.

    How the hell does Hibbert only get two rebounds against the Heat? The only thing they suck at is rebounding and he can't even capitalize on it.

    If he keeps it up, his butt will be gone. I can't believe Larry will put up with this.

    Would we want Hibbert for expiring contracts? Insane how much his value drops in 3 months

    Chris Bosh is the softest player in the game. I don't even know if I'd want him as a backup. If LeBron goes to Cleveland this summer Heat are the worst team in the league.

    If he's a cancer, the last thing we want is for it to spread. Is this organization, team strong to deal with what he might bring in this regard? Or would they feed off of it?

    I would take Hibbert. I would take him in a heartbeat. The guy is an All-Star center. That team is a mess. I think he could do well here.
