    So any thoughts on the Bledsoe for Millsap rumors?

    The bare bones of that deal are a complete steal for Los Angeles. It does beg the question of playing time though. Blake Grffin has only played 15% of his team's minutes at the 5 this season and 0% at the 3. Millsap, on the other hand, has played 0% of his team's minutes at the 5 and only 3% at the 3. Based on those numbers, as well as the way both plays are effective, it's hard to see either of them on the floor at the same time for extended minutes.

    I like that deal for both teams. Man, Utah has a bright future IMO.

    I'm just having a hard time figuring out where the minutes for Millsap would come in Los Angeles. Millsap is the definition of a power forward, and Griffin's most effective at the four as well. If this trade went through, you'd have two guys that are arguably "top 10 PF's" who can't really play other positions on the same roster.

    I think they'll probably get a 3rd team involved. The Clippers are in a win now mode.

    I just finished watching the Memphis/Detroit game (DVR'ed), and my takeaways from it have nothing to do with the Grizz but rather how pathetic the Pistons are right now.

    I don't know if I've seen a team this bad all season long, nor have I seen a home arena as empty.

    I also noticed that Corey Maggette has basically gone into retirement mid-season, and apparently coach Frank has a real problem with Jonas Jerebko, who wasn't let in the game til the final minutes but wound up leading the team with 13 impressive points in garbage time.

    I have no idea how this team has 21 wins.

    Is Tim Duncan the only player to have a 20+ PER ever single season of his career?

    But if you use per 48 minutes, he's terrible.

    Poorly written. When it was time to run the play, was Howard on the bench or on the floor? If on the bench, how was he supposed to run a play?

    What do ya'll think of Tony Parker as a potential MVP candidate? There was some talk of that during the game TNT tonight, and honestly, it's the first I've really heard the talk or given it any consideration, but I guess he has as much claim to the award as someone like Durant or Paul does.
