    Nic hasn't been that bad this season, but I kinda expected him to be on a level where you were hearing his name often.

    Derrick Rose is turning into Roy, one huge game followed by head scratchers

    Batum FG percentage isn't that great he's just playing on his normal nonchalant style

    I'd like to see Aminu guard Kawhi as well as Batum has so far tonight. Not to say Batum is necessarily that much better a defender, but he's got a lot of years being the guy who guards the NBA's best scorers. I bet Kawhi is able to get Aminu into foul trouble, not so easy to do with Nico.

    I still can't believe Dallas gave Wes a max deal. That's going to be an albatross for them.

    If he's putting up 9 ppg, then yes.... that's a huge salary for an average role player.

    Jazz are kicking the Grizzlies in the ass much like us. And here I thought we beat a good team. They are awful.

    1. Wes is worth it!

    2. And it helps keep the Mavs from getting better.

    I see multiple wins in this salary.

    Who knew 3 years ago, that we'd have a better PG than Derrick Rose now?

    Did the Texas turncoat get injured tonight? Why the hell did he only play 17 minutes?

    I didn't watch but he had 4 fouls so that could have been part of it. Maybe Pops should consider bringing him off the bench in an instant offense kind of way. I'm sure his ego would love that.

    So there you go. Rondo had kick ass numbers tonight and he did it without ANY Hall of Famers. And he was being guarded by a HOFer.
