They're very deep. I am surprised they're playing this well with Mark Jackson though.

Clippers on a 8 game win streak, Thunder on 11 and we suck! We might get like 6th seed at best

Jordan Hill's value is close to its peak. What can Mitch find around the league? I'm looking for a player that's perhaps leaving his team or is undervalued.

No bro. Hill has more potential...

It does make sense to move Hill once Pau returns. You can't have a three man big rotation that can't mix and match parts. Tired of the Hill can't play with Dwight, Gasol-Hill works but Gasol is the jump shooter nonsense.

The team needs a true PF.

Im joking, but I really like Hill and would not give him up for just anything.

I wouldn't either, but I think this is the maximum for his value with the Lakers and I'd rather chip in on him then watch his value go down and trade Gasol.

I need to start watching more Rubio. Easily the best passer since Magic and Steve Nash. There was one pass vs Dallas to Stiesma I guess, that I don't think anyone else would even see let alone try and connect perfectly.

Something around Pau-Kirilenko would be amazing for both teams.

Speaking of Kirilenko, Batum got the first 5 x 5 since AK47 did it in 2006.


11 points, 5 boards, 10 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks.


Only the 15th in NBA history. AK and Olajuwon got most of them... WIki link (decent article)

I know he's pretty athletic but 5 blocks is pretty impressive for anyone at that position not named Lebron or Kirilenko.

Batum is the perfect fit to the Lakers starting lineup. I think the Blazers could have been the best team in the league if it worked out for them with Roy, Batum, LMA, and Oden. They had the perfect balance of youth, athleticism, play making, spacing, and defense.

Those were some elite level ball handling skills but Kidd played it well. It sucks that I'll never get to see Kidd in a Lakers jersey. Been my dream since I was a kid. Damnit.

Mavs will be calling up Chris Douglas-Roberts, widely regarded as D-League's hottest current prospect, to replace Fish. ESPN link on the way

So Dock, do we read anything into this or not? Is Fisher better than Duhon or Blake?
