    I think they're actually doing the opposite. They had a lot of good role players that could be quality depth on other teams, but lacked good starters. I can only assume they view Gay as an above average starter, even if most of the rest of us do not. Seemed like a classic case of trading multiple solid guys for one better player.

    I was saying Isiah Thomas should start anyway, so it gets him into the starting unit. Their team does not fit together well at all, but they seem to be consistently making moves to add better talent. Fundamentally I think they're right to make moves to add talent even if the pieces don't fit right. But I agree with most of you that trading for Rudy Gay probably isn't the best way to turn the franchise around.

    It will never live up to the Gay Love era that could have been in Memphis.

    Anyone else not really impressed by OKC beating Indy? Schedules matter. "Back to back vs SA" plays "day off and playing at home."

    When he got blocked and fell over and took his time getting up like an old man... I almost felt sorry for him.

    Lakers cannot win with Kobe. Not the way he's playing right now.

    Toronto's offense looks horrible. They've run the same exact play 4 times in a row.

    0-4 on those plays. lol.
