Around the NBA III

Why would you think they were looking forward to the next game? Maybe Cavs just destroyed them?

Memphis hasn't looked good in months. I'm starting to wonder what the problem is there.

What does Lebron mean when he says that Kevin Love has to get with the program?

Starting to think Love might become a Laker next season. One year of Kobe, then its his team.

I heard Love went on the Dan patrick show and advocated Westbrook for MVP over LeBron. Bron must be upset

Because I think they are a better team than that, especially at home and especially since we're getting closer to the playoffs. What if they happen to meet the Cavs in the finals (which we all know they won't, heh heh)? Wouldn't be too good of a confidence builder for Griz.

If Love doesn't want another Minnesota, lose for years situation, he better either stay with the Cavs or go to a good team. Lakers are awful and won't have that much money to improve if Kobe plays on after this season. Maybe the Knicks are a better option, short term and long term. They can afford to get two star players at high price this offseason. Maybe even a one year deal to resign with them or somewhere else once the salary cap goes up the following offseason.

I don't know which is more maddening , watching James Harden flailing away or Toronto's ineptitude.

Note: Of course Toronto pulls the game out and makes my post look reactionary. Because it was. ::)

[Mylie10]

IMO Toronto needs to find their Steve Kerr if you will. Casey is a good stop gap guy like jackson, but for them to take that next step, they need a Buddenholzer, Kerr, Pop type.

Who doesn't?

I just mean that that specific team is primed for the type of jump in improvement that we had based on them being good, but just missing that added coaching.

[floppymoose]

I'm hoping the Spurs can get the 5th seed. I want the Warriors to beat the Thunder in round 1, the Spurs in round 2, and the Rockets in the WCF, and then Cleveland in the Finals. Let Curry best all the other MVP candidates (plus the Spurs).

I wonder if Billy Donovan would go to Toronto? if the rumors of him wanting to try the NBA are real. I think he and Hoiberg are the 2 NCAA coaches I would have my eye on if I were NBA teams needing a coach.

I have a deep seeded need to see this team embarrass the Clippers in a playoff series this season

Spurs might finish 4th record wise. Would be good to see the team dominate the Clips in the playoffs.

Interesting that the Nuggets apparently tried to trade Lawson for two 1st round picks. Still think he is a top 10 PG and Utah would be smart to trade for him, as he'd make them a real chance to be a playoff team. Dallas would also be smart to take a look at him as he might make them a bit better as well.

Denver is really falling and interesting how they have gone completely in the other direction that we have the last two years.

[floppymoose]

Iggy was their Curry, in terms of impact. The moment he left they were a different team.

[migya]

George Karl was what made it work. That team is run incompetently to say the least. If we could get Faried off them for Lee that'd be a nice thieving, since they are burning their ship.

We can't afford to pay Farried that much money to come off the bench. He doesn't play D anyway unless that has changed recently.

[East Bay Sports]

Anyone think Mario Chalmers could be a fit for our bench? He has one year left on his deal for 4.3 million. I've always loved his game as a 3 & D guard. He seems unhappy in Miami

I'd say no just because you're paying PG premium price for a guy who would play the 2 for us. I'd rather have Shaun/Andre handle the ball and there are cheaper options at the 2 who bring the same level of 3pt impact.
