    Jaylen Brown woulda been nice for the Celtics. This was expected after the Celtics absolutely destroyed them a couple weeks back.

    Knicks just gave up 70 in the first half to a hapless Pacer team after Thibs started benching dudes and calling out their effort on defense.

    Another team ripe for change and one we can potentially exploit given their desperation.

    I don't know if we want their GM. They had enough cap room to pursue two max players in the off season but they decided to re-sign all of their role players to big contracts. It was a head scratcher then and it looks absolutely idiotic now.

    Steve Perry has been comfortably on my do not hire list since i read up on him. He is the one who picked Hezonja 5th in the draft, then tried to bring him in to NY as well a few yrs after. Dont trust him.

    Is Lawlers law dead with many teams hitting the 100 mark before the 4th quarter now a days?

    There's like 6 threads going that could have just been in this thread? No wonder you all get each other confused all the time.

    I hate that the story was Brandon Roy wanted him off the team.

    Couldn't get along with Z-Bo. Couldn't get along with Andre Miller.

    That was tragic...I think Nate saw Brandon as the guy to please period....losing Z Bo and Dre set us back.

    Pretty much gave up Z-Bo for nothing. Channing Frye. Good dude and all, but no Z-Bo.

    Andre Miller was my favorite pt guard until we got Damian Lillard and even that....we haven't had passing and court vision like Dre had since we lost him...not even close

    In Lakers' big loss to Memphis, guess which two (playing on different units) had worst plus/minuses? Could it have been Westbrook and Melo?
