    Sorry long day, anywho. I dont think the Lakers would be all that interested in NO. The lakers under the buss kids have been all about flash and the “Laker Brand”, they’ll go after a huge named guy like Myers, or someone who played in LAL or some “big name”, I dont believe Neil is that big of a name, I mean maybe he is and maybe they think getting NO might give them a chance at Dame or CJ but I doubt it.

    Utah has one guy on their team who can create his own shot (Mitchell) and even he is young and somewhat inexperienced. Not a could recipe for the playoffs. Not on the road anyways.

    Yeah I don't know what's going on with Utah. Seems like they were one of the hottest teams in the league since the ASB. I say they get swept. Falling apart like a cheap suit. Zero offense (Mitchell had 11) and absolutely no way to slow down, let alone stop, Harden who triple doubled it seems. All I noted were silly fouls on him. Rockets and Warriors will be a knock-down drag-out brawl. I seriously don't know if GSW can stop them unless Harden craps out. GSW has serious mental lapses at times it would appear. They don't lack talent that's for sure.

    2 more wins. Its best to 4 not 2.

    However Utah hasnt looked even capable of staying in the game... Now maybe they’ll figure it out and get momentum at home thats possible.

    I'd swap our 25th pick for their 11th pick if Olshey wanted to go there.

    Bad logic. Nurk is already under contract. And, it's on a lovely deal.

    You're talking about adding Blake's albatross of an injury prone contract...

    Why didn't Jerry Buss re-sign Shaq?

    Because he didn't want to pay him all that money for 65 games a season.
