For some reason some Lakers fans actually care about the standings right now.SamuraiX- said:What the hell is this? Don't tell me you had money on the T-Wolves and the Kings. :lol
Bynum just had his first 5 on 5 practice just recently... I seriously doubt he'll be back by next game.SamuraiX- said:Oh please. Bynum will be back for you guys next game. Lakers will still come out 1st seed in the West at season's end.

And nothing is written in stone. Any losses we take and any wins the competition gets is a set-back as far as I'm concerned.
The Hawks aren't exactly the best representative team, but I was surprised at how well Bosh did against Horford, I'll say that much. Everyone pretty much expected them to win these last four games though (except the crazies who thought they would lose in Cleveland) and they don't have any more tough games until like Wednesday or Thursday.exarkun said:Caught some of the heat game on a friends DVR, damn did Bosh look good. Starting to look like they can play together. Johnson is out though, but a win is a win.
Why doesn't Spo play Erik Dampier more often?Sharp said:The Hawks aren't exactly the best representative team, but I was surprised at how well Bosh did against Horford, I'll say that much.

Corran Horn said:Man this is horrible. Watching kings games is just setting myself for disappointment every time.
We need a winning team too. Worried about Kings leaving Sacramento due to no one caring for a team that cant winSamuraiX- said:This season is tanked man. This team is just too damn young, and Westphal hasn't been doing the job of making them commit to concept not being completely retarded on the court.

SamuraiX- said:Yeah, we've been in the bottom of attendance averages the past three seasons (including this one). Just haven't been able to find anything that works.
I don't want a HOF coach or anything, just some guy like Scott Brooks who can take a group of young guys and make them buy into a defensive mentality.
The Chosen One said:Just saw the score-line of the Wolves - Cavs game.... :lol :lol :lol
That Miami game must have really broke their spirit. How on earth do you get blown out by the Wolves!?
And the Kings blowing another 4th quarter lead.... :lol
Seriously, this is the most entertaining regular season in a long while.

SamuraiX- said:Whatever you say, champ. As much as anyone likes to pretend they're right, we'll never actually know unless he somehow gets consistent starter's minutes in the future.
I'd take him over Bynum/Zombie Pyrz/Biendrins/Dalembert in a heartbeat.Blackace said:This is true... But Gortat has played real mins during his career and in the playoffs. I think a lot of people here overrate him a bit... But he is still better than a lot of starting centers in the NBA
He might knock out Evans.LiveFromKyoto said:Ah, but there is somebody far more entertaining.

The Chosen One said:This wasn't some tender love-making either. Bron pounded them bareback, slapped his willy across their face, defiled them in every possible position and then bailed leaving two Benjamins on the night-stand.
Yeah, our best player missed the game with a sprained ankle. Thankfully, Wesley Johnson decided to play like he was the #4 pick or something.ph33nix said:And they did it without Michael Beasley :lol
Its going to be a battle of the injuries. Ginobli is like Bynum in that you can count on them both to get hurt during the season. And I am not sure that either Duncan or Kobe's body can handle the entire season (hell Kobe didn't start the year healthy and he still isn't back to 100%).The Crimson Blur said:But if thats the case, you probably won't sleep well for a while. It'll probably take at least a month for the Lakers to overtake the Spurs, so I'd be patient if I were you. I'd be shocked if you guys didn't end with the number 1 seed though.

Hornets are the worst team in the league you know.sillymonkey321 said:the only televised game for me today on nbatv is Hornets vs Spurs, at least it's a good game, yesterday's game was what's left of the Magic vs the Bucks....
The way the Hornets have been playing lately that one will be pretty one-sided. Ironically the Raptors-Knicks game might be one of the more competitive ones tonight.sillymonkey321 said:the only televised game for me today on nbatv is Hornets vs Spurs, at least it's a good game, yesterday's game was what's left of the Magic vs the Bucks....

Listen, lets drop the shameball moniker with the Knicks for now. Reggie Evans is out, if Ronny Turiaf is playing Knicks will rout Toronto. Believe in STAT SWAGGER.Sharp said:Games of the night:
Tier 2 (should be good):
Knicks @ Raptors -- Both teams have been playing surprisingly well lately, to the point that I am willing to believe that this will not be just another episode of shameball. Almost.

See? This is already how you know it's going to be a great matchup! Two teams... two overconfident fanbases... two D-league callups... two (advanced) stat monsters... one winner.The Frankman said:Someone hasn't heard about Shawne Williams.
So, the NBA says they're about keeping the team there, yet have identified potential cities for relocation.As the NBA moves toward buying the New Orleans Hornets, a league source has identified a potential administrator to run the team on an interim basis -- Jac Sperling, vice chairman of the Minnesota Wild.
Sperling would be charged by the NBA with running the Hornets while overseeing their sale to a permanent buyer. The league has said it wants to keep the franchise in New Orleans, but the team can opt out of its lease if it averages less than 14,213 fans over a span of 13 home games from Dec. 1 to Jan. 17, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune. The 13-5 Hornets were averaging 13,826 with four more games to go before the deadline.
These developments follow SI's original report last week that the league discussed during its October board of governors meeting a takeover of the Hornets from owner George Shinn, who wants to unload the team but hasn't been able to find a buyer.
Two league sources tell SI.com they expect the NBA to take control of the Hornets soon. "It could happen within 48 hours,'' said one of the sources on Saturday.
If the Hornets were to move, possible new locations would include Kansas City, Anaheim and Chicago, which is the third-largest market in the country yet has only one NBA franchise.
Moving them to Chicago would create a Lakers-Clippers situation... do not want. Anaheim would be dumb too, way too many teams in the same space. Kansas City could work if it weren't an awful market... they'd be consigning the team to failure. If only there was a city without a team that had historically supported basketball and was a pretty good sports town.Rodeo Clown said:http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/basketball/nba/12/05/hornets.takeover/index.html?xid=si_nba
