    Yeah, where was Batum BTW...

    I mean what a great dissapearing act he pulled last year....My hope is he doesn't pull the same type of performance in the playoffs this year as he did last year...

    I'm sure he'll have a few games where he disappears, because he's a 21-year old kid who lacks experience. If Nate plays him 5-7 minutes a game like he did in last years playoffs, then he'll probably play bad every game.

    So easy to say, but nearly impossible to do. I mean, yeah, it'd be nice to have 12 all-stars on the team, but that just isn't reality. There's a reason players are reserves- they're not good enough to make the starting lineup.

    Darren Collison is not available. But that's okay. He's not so great. He's Tyus Edney. Fast little PGs tend to burst on the scene and then, unless they're Chris Paul, kind of fade. See Stoudamire, Damon. Our backup PG is PETTERI KOPONEN: keep th' faith.
