    I don't think that will happen but i wonder about it also. He rode Duncan for all he was worth. Phil Jackson had a couple decent players also.

    Really, Ha dated your sister? That was while he was with the blazers, I assume.

    Did he attack her with his pole?

    Balanced out by Kevin Harlan, one of the best.

    Who wants to take a guess on the rotation

    My guess is the starters stay the same.

    Second unit:

    Curry
    Hood
    Turner
    Layman
    Collins

    Layman is most likely safe for now. Collins and Leonard will battle for minutes.

    What I would do (short of unrealistic shit like benching Turner) is play Hood over Curry.

    Absolutely 100%. Curry should only be used in spot minutes to bust a zone or stretch the floor on last-second inbounds plays.

    Unfortunately Hood doesn't address our two biggest weaknesses - Aminu at PF and Turner as 2nd unit ball-handler. In theory he can take some of Aminu's minutes by sliding Harkless/Jake into the PF spot more often while he plays SF, but he himself doesn't directly take Aminu's minutes. And there really isn't anyone who can take Turner's ball-handling duties.

    It's like he knew Neil was going to fuck up at the deadline.

    This is the first time I've ever seen LeBron play as a Laker. Predictably, I hate it.
