    These bitches need to stop jumping on our bandwagon.

    And props @ Nate for admitting his stupidity about starting Blake.

    Let them jump on all they want. It will be good practice for when we shock the world and win the NBA title this year.

    I didn't really get that from Nate... Although that line about how Dre looked at Blake and thought "I could kill that guy" was pretty damn funny.

    "Other than Robin Lopez being injured, you mean?"

    Nice to see the excuses being started for the Suns already. Cry me a fricking river.

    I just don't understand why people don't give credit for US being hot down the stretch.

    C'mon, we lost to the Warriors on the last day of the season-and they only had 5 healthy players! A hot team wouldn't do that...:dunno:

    lol the warriors game wasn't important which is why almost everyone who wont get much time if any in the playoffs play'd more minutes then our rotation players. Dunno why the anaylist don't take a look at that game and realize it didn't matter so we didn't have our starters in except for batum.

    No wonder it took so long to shake McMillan out of that experiment, he was focused on a poor analogy... Ray Allen isn't a primary ball handler, and unlike Roy, he excels at playing off the ball. The Celtics don't have a problem with that combination because their two guys have much less overlap in skill sets.

    The thing is that Nate's probably thinking about Ray Allen and the way he used him in Seattle, where Mr Shuttleworth handled the ball quite a lot (averaging assist rates of 23, 18, 17 and 19% which is very close to what Brandon has done here).

    As always, Vecsey is the last boob to hop on the bus.

    and neither should Roy be one, given his mediocre ballhandling skills.
