The Pelicans front court are morons. You have Davis going all world, yet Tyreke, Gordon and sometimes even Holiday insist on bricking up more shots than him.


i like the Pelicans team but I don't like it at the same time. There's just something missing and they really don't have many options to get better. I mean everyone is pretty much who they are and I don't really see too much internal growth other than Davis.


they could really do with a 3 and D guy on a wing, rather than one of Gordon or Tyreke


Most likely Gordon but he likely has little to no value. So more realistically it'd have to be Tyreke, but their fans don't want to trade Tyreke.

They're likely capped out next season as they'll have to re-sign Omer. They'll have major capspace in 2016, but so will a lot of teams and that's when the cap is expected to spike. They'll have to bank on the fact that players want to play with the Brow, which may or may not happen in New Orleans.

Their GM really put them in a tough position.

Mark Jackson throwing Klay under the bus discussing not fouling up 3, literally he mentioned him by name.

Watching Memphis and Toronto. Gasol is such a beast. A good post defender in chuck Hayes really bodied him up. Got into his body with his low center of gravity and Gasol still made a turnaround fadeaway 15 footer, a contested 20+ footer with a hand in the face and then 2 FTA when Toronto decided to double.

Ross is playing out of his mind right now too. Maybe he's thinking, "Klay made the jump, so can I".

SA is the other team because for some reason they just take us to task in the regular season.

One thing to note here is that Mo plays Z-Bo really well. If he keeps producing, I'd expect him to get more run (would hope so) against them Z-Bo is a load, but believe it or not, Mo has the strength to match up with him and they are both about the same height. Hopefully Kerr recognizes this.

Clippers playing better the past few games. Only 2 games behind us in the loss column. Still feel the Clippers are going to be a top team in the West after their weird start.

Priceless.

Knight hit a huge 3 in the double OT period to lock it up. Good response from that.

Says a lot about the Lakers when the wiretap headlines involving them are "Lakers Working Out Roscoe Smith" and "Lakers Plan Multiple Workouts For Gal Mekel, Dwight Buycks."

once this guy adds the 3 ball (I believe he will) it's officially over for the league

On track to become the first player ever to lead the league in blocks and steals. Amazing

Franchise bigs like Davis (Webber, Duncan, Garnett, Amare, Dirk, Kemp, Malone, Barkley, Ant Randolph) give me wood.

Weird deal. Wonder where he will sign if he does indeed wind up getting bought out by Philly

Brandon Wright with another 6-6 shooting game for Dallas now shooting a remarkable 80% for the season.

Mo @ 64% and Bogut @ 61.3 are at 4th and 6th respectively.

Two Warriors out of the top in FG% is pretty good I'd say.

AK would probably go overseas? Not sure he has anything in the tank left for the NBA.

Right now, I wouldn't touch AK with a 10 foot pole. Who'd we get rid of? I guess it would have to be Rush and we're starting to see some signs of him getting back some of his skills (at least defensively).

Rush looks awful to me. I am rooting for the guy, but not holding out much hope.

Props to J-Kidd. Weird dude but it seems like he knows how to coach.
