Why did they take out Kevin Love and let the Thunder come back to within single digits then?
He can't play all 48 minutes, unfortunately.

And this run is largely on Telfair. Fuck that guy.

I remember the days when Rodeo was high on Bassy and "Fourth Quarter" Foye.

I hate Foye.
 
Why doesn't korver start for the bulls? His D isn't terrible, he can shoot and he passes the ball pretty well. I'd rather have him shooting than Deng.
 
Man, still can't believe how young the Clips' starting lineup is. Probably one of the youngest in the league, if not the youngest.

Bledsoe - 20
Gordon - 21
Animu - 20
Griffin - 21
Jordan - 22

U23 indeed.

Hi d is terrible, just not as bad as bogans.
 
Gallo must really like Manu. He does the same exact flopping on drives.

Bogans should not be in the league. He's the reason the knicks were raining 3's against the bulls.

Youngest, and by a long way.

That's starting to piss me off. I remember him going up stronger on drives last year, must've hung out in Europe or something in the offseason. Dude needs to cut that shit out.
 
Rookie Watch: Redraft, Version 1.0

Pick No. 1: John Wall to the Wizards

Hmmm, would the Wiz take a point guard who shows competitive fire, Formula 1 speed, a willingness to defend and the charisma of a star? Of course they would.

A better debate about Wall: Where would he go in a draft with Derrick Rose and Blake Griffin? I'd guess 50 percent of the GMs would take Wall first. That's how special he can be.

While Rose is a dynamic scorer and Griffin is a beast all over the court, Wall can be both a great scorer and a more natural lead guard than Rose, while also being an upgrade on defense. And it seems the league values guys like him more than anyone else besides star quality centers.


Pick No. 2: Derrick Favors to the 76ers
This looks like as much of a no-brainer as the No. 1 selection. With the Nets, Favors has shown tremendous promise as a rebounder and scorer in the paint and would have gotten plenty of minutes in Philly's rotation.

Which looks like a better foundation to build on: Jrue Holiday and Evan Turner as a backcourt duo or Holiday and Favors as a pick-and-roll combo? Holiday and Favors are two of the youngest players in the league, and both possess a demeanor that suggests they are very serious pros.



Pick No. 3: DeMarcus Cousins to the Nets

New Jersey would be a perfect spot for Cousins, if Favors weren't available. Tough-minded coach with lots of credibility. A culture of rules and discipline (see Terrence Williams and the D-League). And a franchise center already in place. There wouldn't be any gargantuan banners of him hanging off buildings, as we've seen in Sacramento. And my guess is that in Jersey, we would have seen a slimmer Cousins, who'd have had to work each day just to survive matchups with Brook Lopez and Avery Johnson's expectations.


Pick No. 4: Al-Farouq Aminu to the Timberwolves
Who knew Aminu would make more than half of his 45 3-pointers in his first 20 games as a pro? And at just 20 years of age (a full three years younger than Wes Johnson), his upside is huge. He would have been a great fit on the Wolves, an improving team that could really use perimeter shooting.

With the way Kevin Love rebounds, the Wolves would have been able to play Aminu some at the 4 with little fear of getting killed on the glass (before he builds enough strength to hold his own). Eventually, Aminu should be able to learn to do some real damage from that spot.


Pick No. 5: Eric Bledsoe to the Kings

Sacramento has the second-worst record in the league for the year 2010, with just 15 wins since Jan. 1, never winning more than four games in a month. The Kings epitomize rebuilding, a mode they've been in for years. (They got good value with Cousins, but in this exercise, he's off the board.)

Now it looks as though the team realizes that the reigning rookie of the year, Tyreke Evans, is better off playing next to a true point guard. And Bledsoe has shown the ability to play that part well this season in his stints as a starter with the Clippers. With his explosive athleticism, he would have given the Kings a very young, very interesting backcourt going forward.

Interesting. No Fields in the top 5?
 
Thunder thought they could come back but talent wins out in the end

DAT BREWER

Love with his seventeenth double-double.

I don't know why you tend to be so high on Telfair. He's pretty bad.

I don't think Mayo finishes the season in Memphis.

There's been talk about Chicago wanting to trade for him, since they need a SG, but I don't know if I would want him. Would rather look for a deadline trade on an expiring contract. Just need defense and a good jumper.

Stockholm syndrome, maybe? He was playing really well earlier in the year. He's just regressing back to the mean, I guess.

Huh? I remember you loving him all the time. Last season, offseason, preseason. It didn't start this year :lol
 
Why doesn't Thibodeau put Boozer into the game? His presence would be great right now in the paint.

And damn the Bulls need to work on their free throws.

Yeah, I know. It's irrational. He's been my guy since the KG deal. He'll have another good game here soon that will validate it.
 
J2 Cool said:
They've look so uninterested the entire game.
TBH I thought this might happen... Cavs have looked so awful lately that okay to good teams like the Bulls start looking past them, even though only elite teams can look past all their opponents and still win.
 
What a shitty pass by felton. Puzzling.

Knicks finally going aggressive to the whole, however Raptors beat them to that.

Gallo gotta hit that shot.
It was a terrible pass. Its never a good look when a player has to catch and shoot starting from his feet.
