I don't even know what happened in Houston tonight.

Parsons, Melo, and Felton all on from three. It was absurd. 15 threes between them (but 10 misses to boot).

This will be an anomaly type game for Parsons. I doubt he drops thirty again this season, but tonight will at least showcase the way he plays all over the floor. He got points, rebounds, steals, etc. I will not call him an elite player, by any means, but he is pretty damn good.

18 and 14 for Asik. Damn. Did anybody see these games coming? I know I didn't. I expected him to throw the ball up like a bitch every time he had to try and score. It's what I saw him do in Chicago. Glad to see they're making something of him on the offensive end.

Houston was on, and NYK lost the game when they lost their cool. Melo and Tyson Chandler both got unnecessary Ts and that was the point when the game got out of hand. There's no way Houston could take it to NY like this again, though. Guarantee it. We were due for a good home performance, but this is going to get people too excited, too soon.

i dont think hes a franchise guy, i think he just has that mindset, minus the ego. hes going to be the guy who understands his role, makes everyone better, and wants to win. hes never going to worry about himself.


i just hope we're in the spot to draft him and then use our cap on extensions.
You have some guys in the NBA who are excellent rebounders so a team can afford to have someone how is kind of a chucker, shoots 40-42 percent from the field, because you can rely on that guy to clean it up. Think of Sprewell with Garnett, or Maxwell with Olajuwon, and so on.

I don't think Monroe is that kind of guy, and yall have Stuckey. So a lot of points are being left on the floor. You can't just pluck these types of guys off the bench, but a efficient scorer would be excellent for yall.

ive been saying for two years we need a go-to scorer before we compete.

Hornets have gone from being up by 19 to down 11 in less than 10 minutes, wow.

Would the Cavs ever consider dealing Varejao? His value has to be skyrocketing lately. He's been playing out of his mind. Certainly helping my fantasy team.

I had nearly 60 boards from Varejao, Asik, Duncan and Faried combined. I'm destroying my roto league in the rebound category.

I'd have to assume it'll cross their mind come February. He's 30 years old and obviously not a huge part in their long term plans.

It's not that he doesn't listen I just think that a lot of people in the organization (not just Dumars) thought that Rodney Stuckey would flourish in that role.
i stuckey would make a good two but its clear thats not true. dumars does need to try harder to get this team out of the hole, they need to really ship tay out.

The Thunder really should offer Lamb or that Toronto pick for Varejao. He'd make their team so much better.

He figure he'll learn from Chauncey Billups and Rip Hamilton.

The Blazers bench only average 12.8 ppg? That has to be a mistype.
