    That was.... holy hell that was amazing. And the best part is there was no "filler". He had a message with each of his bars. That is one of the best raps I've ever heard.

    And I agree with you, HCP... they don't make 'em like they use to.

    The Roots are probably my favorite hip hop group to see LIVE. They are just amazing performers along with Outkast. Saw them together back in 97 or 98.

    Makes Westbrooks 42 in ONE season that much more impressive......especially when Kobe only had 21 and MJ 28 for their ENTIRE careers.

    So because OKC is still struggling, you're going to go back and talk about stat padding from last season?
    You know Westbrick will never go to the Lakers willingly right?

    How the fuck do we get Tobias Harris away from Detroit without giving up any of the big 3? He would make this team so much better and Detroit was on a 8 game losing streak before their win tonight.

    The only thing Melo has over Tobias is name recognition. The man can play.

    He's scoring in double figures most games, but yeesh. 40% from the field, 38% from 3. Some poor shooting nights.

    Chili P is shooting 44/39 but on much less shooting.

    He's been great for my fantasy team, he's awesome from 3. He's actually shooting a full 10% higher from 3 than his career avg this year so far. That's insane. I'd love to have him on this team but I think he's a main cog for them. I really wanted him and Oladipo from Orlando, but ah well.

    I predicted after the trade that Crabbe's scoring would go up by a couple points per game, but his scoring efficiency would go down. He is who we thought he was.

    I'd gladly take Aminu over Crabbe 1000 times out of 1000. This year Aminu is shooting a full 10 percentage points higher than Crabbe from 3 and, unlike Crabbe, he also gives you defense and rebounding.

    Crabbe is still the same overpaid, inconsistent, 1-dimensional player he's always been.
