Why would Thompson get a max deal?!?! He's good, but not that good.

Im not sure he does either but how do you explain that to Thompson when they were willing to trade him for Love is getting that amount. And also when there are other teams that would be willing to pay him big money. They have kind of painted themselves in a corner.

If I was playing Jessica Alba I would let her win too.

Bayless on the Bucks now? Yikes! That guy's going to give Tony Massenburg a run for his money.

I thought he was a stud! If used right, he could really help a team.

Mo Williams had a monster game tonight for the Wolves..19pts, 6 reb, 7 assists and 3 steals in 29 minutes!
Raymond Felton on the other hand played less than a minute and a half, had 0 stats except 1 BA and fell driving to the lane to be carried off the court

 

[PDXFonz]

Raymond Felton and now....Chandler parsons?

Its weird to me how many guards the Suns have on that roster that are worthy of playing time. Are they going to be better this year or was last season a fluke?

It was a little flukey. The suns are well coached and have some talent but I see them regressing to 40-42 wins.

The cavs offense is pretty cool.

I haven't watched, care to elaborate?

It might be just preseason but they swing the ball well and transition very well. They rotate on defense decently too, very opportunistic as well.

This might be just the LeBron effect though. He can make any team look good. Hell, I'd bet he could take any nba team to the playoffs.

In the post game presser, Chris Haynes just asked Bosh what it was like playing against Lebron.

Very fortunate! Opportunity to build a nice division lead early!

 

[THE HCP]

Wow! Huge blow to the Thunder! I doubt WestBrick can carry them the way Durant did.

Raymond Felton better not miss his return to portland again. He was injured last season with the Knicks. I have tickets to the Dallas game on the 6th and would really like to boo him with the 23,000 fans there.

Kobe looks really slow. A lot of guards are gonna abuse the Lakers, but what else is new I suppose.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Kobe Bryant has a +/- of -39

I can't wait for Kobe to demand he guard Lillard out of pride.
