    FML. I actually really like the Landry/Bogut 4/5 that Mark Jackson has only started using the last few games. The problem is now you have to play more Festus (maybe at PF), Draymond Green, or smallball with Barnes.

    I guess the bigger problem is actually that the team at full strength rebounds very well. Denver is a great rebounding team, yet I liked our chances to win or draw the battle on the boards with Bogut, Lee, Landry, Festus plus good contributions from the perimeter guys. We outrebounded them by 10 last night even though they took fewer shots and shot a higher FG%. Now we might take a beating on the glass, which is very bad news.

    Pau has missed 6 of 9 shots and has 2 TO's already. He's playing like shit and the Lakers are getting killed.

    That means they are having technical difficulties and there is no need to call them.

    Gianobli is great but a back court of Blake and Nash will not slow many teams down.

    Blake played good defense in stretches.

    He did, and Meeks is OK. But when you put all three together as your back court, you get "scrappy" at best. I believe they started Blake as their SG. That will work in stretches but when teamed with Nash.......SA must have been happy with that match up.

    Why is Jennings breaking out the DMiles/QRich head bangs after made shots? He isn't cool enough to pull that off.

    I think this series is over in 3.

    Ya I expect MIL to forfeit after 3. Hell, they should probably save the anguish and embarrassment, they would be best served doing it now.

    This series is going 7 and the Bucks have a chance if the Heat tighten up. Bucks should win tonight. By the way, does anyone else hate the phrase "the series doesnt start til someone wins on the road"? Pau said it after the game. So if the Spurs win all their home games and thus the series, did the series never start? It's such a stupid thing to say.

    He was obviously saying that the series should be moved to the streets, where true ballers play.
