    I love Isiah Thomas on Sacramento. The kid just knows how to play.

    Oh dammit... I was looking at the per 36.

    Doesn't change anything though. He's still .2 blocks from making that list.

    How bad and broken down are Pierce and Garnett? Garnett 3 for 10 in only 19 minutes. Pierce off the bench for 15 minutes, 0 for 7. I think if i went to a game I would want to run on the floor and get down on all fours behind Garnett and start barking!
    I almost feel sorry for their owner for trusting this American GM who is not only spending all his money, but putting a bad product on the floor and crippling them for a decade. they traded three first rounders, plus Boston's right to exchange picks in a 4th year, for some guys that it was pretty obvious were already over the hill.

    A big part of it is coaching. Good coaches know how to put players in positions to maximize their strengths and minimize their weaknesses. Kidd just throws them out in the sea to fend for themselves. Brooklyn management and ownership can blame themselves for hiring a coach at the highest level who's never had a job.

    Is anyone else kind of laughing at the revisionist history for the Suns? I've seen some articles talking about how ownership "bought into" the new management trying to compete when they were hired when i seem to remember them trading away their starting center for a guy with an expiring contract that probably isn't going to play this season.

    Maybe it was addition by subtraction?

    Worst Christmas Day line up EVER! Gawd, Bulls vs. Nets is painful to watch. Will either team break 80? Then we get two yawners: OKC vs. NYK and MIA vs. LAL. The only game worth watching will be HOU vs. SAS.

    Bah humbug!

    Warriors-Clippers games are usually good, particularly in Oakland.

    These Big Logo uniforms are horrible. They look like cheap Halloween Superhero costumes.

    Tony Parker: 6 points 3 assists and a -25. A true All Star like Lillard wouldn't be caught dead with such a horrible showing.

    I am in no mood for this.

    I will edit myself

    SlyPokerDog is fucking idiot with these comments. Lillard has had shitty games as well. All great players do from time to time. Seriously, SlyPokerDog, what the fuck is up with you lately? You yell at people to learn the game and then post, but you yourself post this garbage?

    To be fair, and even though it was in a win, he did have a 4 pt, 6 assist night, with a -4 (1-15) shooting @SAC.

    Also, Parker had 4 assists.
