    I don't know about that, but some nights it looks as if he hates playing basketball for a living.

    lol "blanket statements" ok buddy keep defending your boy. I want him to succeed more than you, but let's face it...he isn't on that elite level. He's an all-star, but he's not an elite scorer.

    The elite scorers get double/triple teamed all the time, too, but they still find a way to score. I love Roy, but he is what he is. A perennial All-Star who is pretty good at everything.

    How is taking one game and making broad generalizations about it not considered making a blanket statement? How do you know how much I want him to succeed? When did I ever say he is an elite scorer? Again, how can I get some of what you're smokin?

    I'm only going to respond this one time and you can think what you want. Miller did look for the open man some. Maybe not as much as he normally would because people he passed to were not hitting there shots. He had to try and make something happen and he did keep us in the game with his scoring. I love Roy and Batum's game but they stunk it up tonight and trying to blame Miller for Roy having a terrible game is just silly and stupid. Yes, I am a terrible speller but I just made a mistake and didn't proof read what I was typing. Maybe you do know a little about basketball but it sure doesn't look like it from what you are posting.

    What i've noticed watching Roy is that when the double and triple team comes, he always does the same thing. He always back pedals with the ball and continues dribbling instead of passing the ball quickly to catch the d out of position. the backing up allows the d to rotate over and cover open players.

    roy loves to hold the dribble instead of moving the ball, and thats one thing he needs to improve on. he needs to make quicker decisions to and let his team help him out.

    lol, but as for what we were talkin about, I still think Mark Price would beat Kevin Durant at HORSE. Even if the Grizzlies are already eliminated from the playoffs this year.

    So could the spurs. They play the Magic (Fri) and then off to the Lakers (Sun). Those two games could be 2 loses for them.

    Bullshit. Bayless came in and Martell was on fire. Then Miller came in and Webster was wide open for most of the second quarter and Miller forced up terrible shots. Miller wasn't finding the open man at ALL.
