    Sad. Losing out on LeBron led to a lot of bad choices. On that note, can you imagine how big of a star Lillard would be if he were a Knick?

    His numbers are way down. He's just not used to playing with that many good players. No chemistry yet......they'll be fine.

    I'm sure they will be, but dame is better than Deron. And Lillard would have blown up. Bet get superstar calls too.

    God this pisses me off! I hate nba refs!

    Re: The 2013-14 Around The NBA Thread......

    Dwight isn't the same Dwight from those magic teams. His back has made him 80% of what he was. When he was on the magic he was the most dominant big man in the game and it wasn't even close. A big part of that was just the freak athlete he was that allowed him to do things like come out to the top of the key and then turn around and get back in time to block a cutters shot, he can't do those things anymore. He is skilled but it was his freak athleticism that really allowed him to be such a monster defensively. He has relied on that athleticism to much over his career and neglected developing different skill sets and its really showing at the moment.

    Even Bargnani has no problem defending Dwight's "post game".

    I think Houston might be the most overrated team in the Western Conference. I think it was Bill Simmons who pointed out that Dwight is on the fast track to mediocrity.

    Nice take . . . I agree.

    I do wonder if he will get to 100% again and be dominating again . . . but each season that goes by it becomes more and more unlikely.

    Never thought I'd be rooting hard for the Knicks. Never say never I guess.

    Chandler Parsons gets brushed and a foul is called. Minute later goes and chats up the refs.

    Because of the Hack-A-Howard situation the Rockets are playing Terrance Jones and Parsons as their Center and PF right now!!!!!
