He's shown flashes of nothing. The only good games he's ever had were fluke shooting nights and he's shown in every other game to be a horrible shooter while being almost Dwight-bad from the line.
Believe it or not, I've never been inclined to call into ANY radio show lol
lol I figured. I don't think even you could troll like that lol

Watch Gasol on the bench. Any other player who wasn't a media darling would be getting destroyed for that body language lol

If Kobe was benched for Jodie Meeks you'd be having an aneurysm.
Perkins + K-mart for pau, 100% you're the only person in this world that gonna say yes.

the funny thing about the Pau situation is that he's been playing noticeably better since he got benched. and the team is winning.
also, shouldn't he be happy that he gets more rest this way, and that it helps his knee tendinitis and plantar fasciitis?

make it stop.
Dumb analogy. Meeks isn't outplaying Kobe. YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME!
no you don't you get play to get paid
when his contract expires and the Lakers don't extend, a lot of owners won't be gullible enough to give him a big contract because he'll be known as that guy that got benched for Earl the Pearl

In retrospect, getting K Mart and Luis Scola would have been much better than Aminu, Kaman, and a perennially injured Gordon. Hard to know that at the time, though.
What's it about? Avoiding child support?
People who think Earl Clark is playing better than Pau aren't really watching the games.
But that's not the point. Antawn Jamison played more minutes than Pau this game, and Pau had a great game. So how does that even make sense?
The team's been winning? He just watched the team almost blew a double digit lead. At home. To the Hornets. Fuck Pringles and fuck anyone who thinks Pau is the problem here.

Rivers is making our Morrison pick look better in retrospect. At least Adam Morrison was a decent player before he got injured, Rivers can't make that claim.
3, and the jizzing is more about how they are playing
Some day when you get demoted or are being scapegoated because your boss is a fucking idiot, then you will understand
until then you're a random Kobe homer on the internet with zero perspective
speaking of terrible analogies, gino has mostly been a sixth man his career, is a wingman, and he plays at the ends of games

Cuban needs to be strung up by his balls for thinking that big free agents were going to sign with the Mavs. If he doesn't pull the trigger on some trades I'm going to be pissed. They've got severe problems at the PG and Center positions.

Still interested in seeing which fool team is willing to pay Josh Smith the max.
Like this was anything but a throw away season for them.

Speak for yourself. The team is awful and I can't even be bothered to attend games if I'm given free tickets.

Eh, Kemba can be fun to watch, same with MKG. They've definitely turned shit around in the last couple of years. Pretty sure the Cats will be a fun team to watch in a couple of seasons so long as they keep drawing high picks.
It's kinda disappointing though. Still I'm having fun watching,but it really sucks that its just a wasted year with no guarantee that its actually going to get better next year.

Didn't Dirk say some shit like he's not motivated anymore or something after chipping.
Shitting all over LeBron and Wade both after years of build up has to leave you pretty much ready to give no fucks unless your life is dedicated to basketball aka Kobe.

I don't recall Dirk saying that. He had to go to conditioning courses to improve his game last season, but I think his competitive spirit is still there. He has been riding Cuban's ass in the media and openly questioning whether or not it was smart to disband that championship team.
I still had Dallas as a playoff team this year, but Dirk coming back so late in the season really fucked that up.
By the way, Dirk recently passed Iverson on the scoring list.

I think he would relish playing on a team going up.
What is current rumor on the Toronto side? No one on the memphis side can figure out where the third team is going to come from.
Right on schedule IMO

I would say Atlanta, but they had the balls to suspend him when he was acting like a fool so I'm not so sure anymore. Houston is the best bet now I think.
They're awful now, but they're awful for a reason. Hopefully it will pay off in the next few years.
If we can draft Noel this year and a scorer in next years draft I like our chances.

I played Metal Gear Raiden Revengeance Whateverdafuck and I think I just broke the game by destroying geometry that was necessary for me to continue forward...I chopped a stairwell down.

If the Rockets draft a combo guard like Smart and sign Jsmoove they'll be at least Grizzlies good.
Lin/Smart
Harden
Chandler/Morris
Smith/Jones
Asik/Montienunas

Smart will be a Top 5 pick imo, I dunno maybe they could use Goodwin tho he may not be much better than Toney Douglass at this stage

He has already been to the second round though

So retire. Alot better than getting shit on and swept out of the playoffs every year, while watching Lebron and Wade chip from home.

His hands are tied. He can't help what Cuban does. I think letting Chandler walk was enormously stupid considering Chandler is having a better season than Dwight.
LegendofJoe

if they can't get Smart they'd be better off drafting Burke, stay as far away as you can from guys with low bball IQ like Goodwin imo.
Latest addition I read was somehow we're including a draft pick in the deal.

If BC gives up draft picks to take on salary Stern needs to step in and veto the trade for "that's insanely idiotic reasons." The precedent has been set, and BC seems like he's on a mission to make the NBA fail in Canada. If that doesn't count as basketball reasons I don't know what does.

I still have no idea why Toronto wants Rudy Gay so bad.

Expecting Toronto to offer Bynum the max at this rate.

Pretty much. I'm pretty sure it was Jameson who was guarding Ryno and getting worked at the end there too. Pau was working well with Dwight in the post all night as well. Even when were doing well I hate Dantoni. Its not like weve ran his offense the last 3 games either.
I like him

Yeah, but they should be lusting after good players.
