Hornets play the Blazers today, I'm feeling a pretty big loss.

 

[cruzg24]

Mavericks face the Lakers, gonna be interesting watching Odom play his old team. Lakers remember very well how we swept them last year, good times.

Monroe vs Hibbert for backup all-star C at the moment

Tyson Chandler?

 

[jonathanlambert33]

He will have to do it fast, only getting 20 minutes on the court a game.

as bad as i would love to see gmoe make the all-star game i dont think he will. hes playing on a horrible team and i think its gonna come back and bite his ass, though i think even on a good team he can still get these numbers because hes that kind of guy. rebound, put-backs, and pick-and-rolls. you dont need to run plays for him and he'll still get his.

You know now that I think about it Ayon's game is like Monroe's a little.

Obviously Monroe is better but still.

Jimmer Fredette is struggling to score in the NBA and head coach Keith Smart has some advice for the rookie.

"Looking for his shot a little bit more would be better for him, but I think he's trying to fit into a team," Smart tells The Sacramento Bee. "But I'm telling him all the time: 'Be you. Don't try to be this point guard and average 10 assists -- just be you and shoot when you have to shoot. The team understands that.' "

Fredette is currently starting in the backcourt with Tyreke Evans, who says the rookie just needs to play.

"It seems like he's just thinking too much," said Evans. "Coach hasn't yelled at him or disrespected him for him not to be playing how he played in college. He's just got to go out there and play and put everything else aside."

Fredette is averaging just 7.8 points and he's working with assist coach Bobby Jackson on how to get his shot off against taller defenders.

Final roster for the Olympics.

 

[Hurricane Season]

loaded

 

[DJT]

Bulls and Grizz playing right now. Bulls wearing the black jerseys.

Grizz have the slim lead.

 

[Hurricane Season]

We need to stop feeding Noah in the post... he isn't, and never will be an offensive threat.

 

[.infamous]

if the us loses with that roster :spideypalm:

 

[DJT]

Speights doing well.

76ers were dumb to never play him.

 

[Pugz]

we will not lose with any 12 man roster that involves those players.

 

[RipCity32]

I wish the Grizzlies would just start Mayo and stop fucking around.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

That would make their team worse...

 

[RipCity32]

How? Mayo was a good player when he actually got the minutes.

 

[RipCity32]

LMAO. Noah thought he was going to get redemption from getting blocked on the other end, so he decides to guard Gay at the 3 point line, and ended up getting dunked on.
Fail.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

How? Mayo was a good player when he actually got the minutes.

Tony Allen is a great defender and that's huge for their team. Starting Mayo would be a huge detraction from their team defense. Allen was one of the major reasons they did so well in the playoffs.

 

[cruzg24]

Omg Tony Allen just missed another fucking layup!!!! That dude....
