    I always wanted a Blazers jersey with Gay on the back. Do it, Oshey!

    Some serious Kentucky curse going on right now:

    Bledsoe, Booker, Knight, etc: Suns -- 3-9
    Cousins, WCS, Skal: Kings -- 4-8
    Davis, Jones, Goodwin: Pelicans -- 2-10
    Wall: Wizards -- 2-8
    KAT: Wolves -- 3-7
    Murray: Nugs -- 4-7
    Noel: Sixers -- 2-9

    MKG, Lyles, Randle are like the only players of significance that are on winning teams. Interesting trend.

    Calipari's recruiting mirrors Whitsitt's GM'ing. With more dollars under the table, of course.

    The teams had to be bad to draft these guys in the first place and looks like many teams have just stayed bad.

    As meh as the Evan Turner signing was, Parsons is yet another free agent that saved Neil from himself by signing with another team.

    Did they photoshop a hand? That whole thing looks weird.

    I thought that at first, but upon review, it's Cousins hand.

    It's almost an optical illusion making Boogie's hand look like it's Pauls...Paul got that left hand flick off so fast it is almost invisible

    The hand wasn't photoshopped, but they did have to photoshop the rest of Paul so that it looks like he's not flopping.

    Yeah. Turner at $16M might be mildly movable asset in the future. Parsons at $24M you could not move unless you added about three first round picks.

    I'd like to believe that all the players he whiffed on would somehow dominate.

    It does seem like when Neil is trying to give out a decent sized long term contract he goes for fit over talent but the small contracts he grabs whoever he thinks is talented.

    Too bad we couldn't have played tonight - looks like it was the official "underdog wins" night.
