    Hello darkness, my old friend
    "No way Dante Cunningham starts this year. Heh, he's behind so many guys, there would need to be like four separate injuries in order for him to start."

    Well, you can't say Cunningham isn't willing to commit to whatever he has to do to get his shot. Let's call that moxie. Rather than cancerous and quite illegal teammate-injuring.

    I thought we could rely on LMA for 38 minutes a game?

    Oh, well. I'm not always right, either... I'm the one who (still) thought (thinks) Dante will be a better SF than a PF. We'll see how he does tonight, I suppose...

    Fuck. Dante and Juwan and that's it? Wow. Nights like this are kinda fun because you get to see what these people can really do. I do remember LMA missed 6 games during the 13 game win streak but of course we had Frye and Outlaw back then. Frye played well too. Fuck. Dante and Juwan. This means that we have to play some Twin Towers and it means that Oden MUST get touches. We need 20 out of him tonight.

    I was at the game last night and the whole RG was shocked to see LA in his Sunday's Best rather than in uniform. Nobody had a clue what happened. When word got around that he was sitting out with a knee contusion from a game EXACTLY a month ago . . . there was unrest. Why tonight? You can't say that any 1 game in December is a "must win", but it was pretty close after the Memphis and Utah debacles. Plus they have 3 days off after last nights game. Maybe there is more to the story, but it doesn't sound like there is any way playing last night was going to further "damage" the knee - maybe he would just have to play through some pain. Maybe there is more to the story, but it doesn't sound or look very good considering the situation.
