He's out 2-3 weeks

Good thing is D'Antoni's gonna HAVE to play someone new, Im hoping A-Dolph gets some PT, it'll probably be Roger Mason though.

Yeah he really needs some more playing time. Antoni really needs to give this guy a chance..

T-Mac nearly had a triple-double last night <_<
Yet we lose.

Mac' can still ball. He is way better than he was last year...every now and then he will explode past his defender and slam it. If the Pistons weren't so damn dumb they would realize that he is two times the player Prince and Hamilton are at this point and actually give the guy some court time. Consistently.

Really couldn't say it any better.

sooooooooooooooooo, are the Mavs pretty much screwed without Caron or is it not THAT big a deal?
(out for season for those who havent heard)

 

[Whisper]

No Butler means forcing Deshawn Stevenson to play more meaningful minutes, big deal imo. The Mavs will still be good, just not as good.

Anyway, Pistons fans should watch the game tonight. With the way the Lakers are playing they might be able to grab a blowout win and gain some confidence.

 

[RipCity32]

I plan on watching.

Dallas should REALLY look into trading for Hamilton. Would be a great fit IMO.

pistons have a definite shot at winning if stuckey plays more minutes. lakers cant guard him
ben gordon will surely have a big night if fisher is guarding him
tayshaun is long and will give kobe's old ass fits
jason maxiell types bug the hell out of the lakers

can tmac still shoot 3's? if the pistons get hot from 3, it's game.

all they have to do is run and they have a shot. lakers blow ass. so old and slow

Then there is this: Love told SI.com that during last summer's World Championship in Turkey he had conversations with USA Basketball teammates Russell Westbrook (who played with Love at UCLA) and Derrick Rose about the possibility of someday teaming up in the NBA. Oklahoma City's Westbrook and Chicago's Rose are also permitted to sign extensions this summer.
"We all talk about playing together," Love said. "It's fun to talk about. When the time comes, we'll assess the situation and figure it out."

lol there's almost no chance this happens

it wont happen in chicago. rose will get the max, noah is locked up, boozer is locked up.

only way love and russell reunite is if they both go to a new team.
If OKC offers Russell the max like im sure he'll demand, then they're cash strapped and wont get anyone else like love. but if okc doesnt offer westbrook the max or close to it, some team will

love wants to leave minnesota, so if some team offers him and russell more money, i can see it

Mavs looking at Iggy I've heard

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Won't matter because the Lakers are so much better than the West it's not even funny/

 

[BCRondo9]

Yeah im not really sure whats going on with the Lakers either, guess Kobe cant carry them like he used to hahaha

 

[Mexi]

Mavs looking at Iggy I've heard

for who?
Jesus Beaubois?

 

[DJT]

They will play Dom Jones who played excellent in the summer league. Maybe he can play well in the real league.

They also should have Roddy B coming back soon-ish. (don't know why he isn't playing yet)

 

[dez]

Knicks about to get their biggest win of the season.

Up 122-112 vs San An with about 3min left

Without Gallinari I might add..

 

[MR.ballin]

Fuck yeah beat the best team in the league 128-115. Chandler is such a beast droppin 31 points!. We got 20 wins now, last year we got 20 wins in February LOL.

 

[Mexi]

sign of a bad team: getting blown out by the lakers

f the spurs. hopefully they continue to lose. 29-5 my ass


and the other day LeBron said he doesnt think he or Wade will win MVP
Bron, Bron, Bron...Wade keeps playing like this, he's MVP

 

[MapleLeaf]

DeShawn Stevenson...

 

[Whisper]

My question is, while I love T-Mac and am all for his resurrection, why is he starting @ PG? Why did Stuckey hardly play? Is he in a slump? In the dog house? W'sup with that.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Lakers whooped up on the Pistons, seen that coming. If you are in need of a win, play the Pistons!

Man Im so happy we finally beat a great team this year. We are continuing to move in the right direction. Hopefully we can get Danilo back soon enough.
