OKC not ready, they need someone else....... Harden Maybe
Thabo guading Lebron and not Durant? According to DK, the best players at each position are always supposed to guard each other. What does this say about Durant? Is he scared to guard Lebron? Or maybe he's out of shape...
Watching this Mia-OKC game and am seeing a lot of iso-ball and one-on-one play, esp in the 3rd Q. Durant jacking up shots trying to get the Thunder back in the game rather than moving the ball and Lebron iso'd quite a bit on the strong side with the rest of the team on the weak side. It's not just the Knicks, its a league wide phenomonon for the most part (save for some teams).
Duke-Carolina.........Perhaps the best rivalry in college Ball

Of course it is...I don't understand why members continue to engage in this ridiculous arguments with some of the members on this site.
Its why I have said in the past that people here (regardless of what they say) are NOT watching games. They are only watching box scores and reading ESPN

This.
Wow the bulls are crushing the nuggets. The big mammal is playing for the nuggets.
I like what the Lakers did with the Steve Blake trade. This kid Kent Bazemore looks really good. Also Marshon Brooks fits with what they want to do with MDA going forward. Lakers quietly have a lot of good young players. Lakers also received a 2.8 mil trade exception.

I have always been surprised brooks hasn't done better. Hope he turns things around in l a. Also, maybe Austin daye fulfills his potential with the spurs.

Warriors sign big man Hilton Armstrong to a 10-day deal, per team.
Cavs sign Onuanku. They have been developing him in Canton. He is a monster, fantastic rebounder. Should be a nice pick up for them.
Clips get Davis, Twin to BK. Hoping the Knicks don't go with vets and try to find a young guy or two to develop.
Interesting to watch GS beat the Nets without Bogut and Lee. In a similar situation, the Knicks would have expected Anthony to carry the team and put up zillion shots and hope for the best. Instead of leaning hard on Curry to score (he only put up 13 shots), Jackson let Curry (and to some extent Blake) run a "small ball" team and get everyone involved and, somewhat like what they did during the play offs last year without Lee, make the best of a tricky situation. Jackson's not my favorite coach but he gets props for reworking GS for a night without Lee and Bogut in a way that's more sustainable than just telling Curry to put up a 100 shots which is what I'd guess Woodson would do in a similar situation.

I started watching that game and fell asleep. How did Festivus look? He is one of those guys that has the freak measurements, reach, hand size etc. I wonder if he can put it all together and become a starter.
? Festus Ezeli? As far as I know, he's still injured.
Saw highlights of Nets-Blazers and they just ran them out of the building! 40pt loss? Thats awful!
Nets on TNT taking frustrations out on Nuggs.
Mozzy looks good, Nuggs missing a ton of players. Faried on a mission.
Turned the game on it was 44-15. 59-35 now. Im going to bed.
Nice small move for OKC that gives them some help in the bench.
New Orleans v. Phoenix is Davis v. Dragic, so far. Both amazing players. For my money, Dragic does a better Nash, and sometimes Kidd, impression, than Curry. (Yes, Curry has some Nash riffs but his game seems more old school, more Frazier, more Cousy.)

I agree, he is was one player I would like to target for 2015
Players with high IQ should initiate the offense
I said Houston made a mistake by signing Lin instead of resigning Dragic at the time
Dragic is much better than Lin
The Atlanta Hawks have released center Dexter Pittman.
Pittman, who was signed to a 10-day contract on Feb. 22, appeared in two games with the Hawks this year.
The Hawks have signed Muke Muscala in a related move. Muscala was the 44th overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft.
Briggs was really high on Muscula, for those who missed it last summer, he was hoping we would trade acquire 2 2nd round picks for PG, Nate Wolters and PF/C Muscula
Possibly even trading down for them, with Horford out,
Pero Antic
Muscula
should be part of their development plans with veterans Elton Brand and Millsap to help the process
I personally thought he was a skilled stretch 5, Briggs thought he was more of a 4
Briggs was very HIGH on Vuvevic in Orlando that was selected by Philly right before Iman, saying he likely would take 1-2years before he contributes but would become a very solid NBA C
with versatility and a shooting touch
