    He will not get fired. The one thing I am 99% sure of is the Nurkic injury bought Neil and Stotts another year. I would be floored if either of them got fired now.

    I don't want Rondo. He's fine for 10 games in the regular season and some playoff games if he is slated for a big role, but he's a headcase if he's relegated to a minor role.

    I wouldn't hate it as a Turner replacement because I know for a fact Rondo would get the 2nd unit to play uptempo which I think would be really good for them. I see your point too though so I'm kinda indifferent about it.

    I'm on the Rondo bandwagon, of course, I'm not sure what he's done for LA.

    These stats seem skewed.
    I was told in a game thread ET's impact is amazing and he's clearly Portland's best bench player.

    If it's in a game thread you have to believed it.

    Carlisle has reportedly recommended Rondo to other coaches/teams, so doubt there’s an issue.

    Jake Layman sure plays well with ET...haven't seen those alley oops since they both came off the bench much...ET knows he's out the door..that being said..I like the guy and think he's just on the wrong team for his skillset...he should play for the Grizz

    I know what Carlisle has reportedly said, but I doubt that's the same thing he'd tell his close friends, lol.

    Really the only I seen out both players is they looked to shoot first type of players.

    For the most part I agree with this.

    13-11-10 and only 1 turnover. 5-5 FG, 1-1 3pt, and 2-2 FT, and led the team at +15 in 25 mins.

    WTF got into ET tonight?

    Minn plays so much defense that even ET can't mess it up?

    The only guy we could trade ET for is Nic Batum. $125 mil ... doesn't even play for Hornets anymore.

    So the answer to the OP........averaging a triple double while shooting 100% on 3's, 2's, and FT's.
