    The Wolves are garbage so this is a huge embarrassment for the Nets.

    Yeah. Needs 5 steals in a quarter to get it. It can happen!

    Does Brooklyn have a pick in the 2014 draft?

    MCW was ours for the taking. We probably blew another draft. Jordan, Paul, Durant, Faried, MCW...

    I don't see how Wolters and Mo necessarily had anything to do with one another. You already had an elite SG in Wes and still have been drafting garbage SGs late in the draft every year. You can blow a 2nd rounder on a player and still pay for an FA at the same position. Anyone expecting their second round picks to produce in an NBA rotation right away is nuts.

    I don't recall anyone calling Wolters a "shooter". If you had to give him a singular description it would be PG/floor general/playmaker. And if a rookie second round pick's biggest problem is outside shooting then he's in pretty good shape. Thats something that players can and typically do improve upon significantly.

    MCW in the same breath as Jordan after 12 games?

    We're not missing out.

    Nate Wolters has a 12.5 PER and is struggling shooting for a bad team. Why would the Blazers want him? I'd rather have McCollum.

    Marc Gasol out with a knee injury in the first half ... no word on severity.

    MCW may be getting near triple double

    But, he misses an easy layup and 1, and misses both ft's. 5 minutes left in the 4th. #clutch?

    Bucks beating the Sixers. I don't know who the worst team is, they both look really bad.

    Dude, none of those other guys are as good as Jordan, but they are stars in this league and we passed on them.

    He hit a game tying three to send the Sixers to OT earlier this season.

    Oh wow. Sixers with 25 turnovers.

    Lavoy Allen had a WIDE open look at the top of the key, and decides to try to pass it between 3 bucks to try to get it to Hawes... airmails it all.
