Players are dropping like flies with injuries. Looks like RealGM is limping as well lol.

At this rate Liggins and Harper could end up finals co-MVP's lol.

The refs in the Knicks/Heat game have been atrocious. Condoning flopping, the weak flagrant call, random techs, and 33 ft attempts to NY's 7. Sickening to see how they protect Lebron and Wade.

That flagrant on Carmelo and Chandler was weak.

He's not coming back, even if the report was early, it was probably true.

I agree with you. I just cant stand the Twitter itchy finger craze. Its annoying to hear so many unconfirmed reports taken as fact because everyone wants to be the first to break the story.

Brandon Bass making the same defensive mistakes as he did here. Late on rotations and very little pressure on the ball handler on pick and rolls.

This is one of Otis's trades that I actually liked.

magicfan217 · Post #33 » by **magicfan217** » Mon Apr 30, 2012 1:03 am

I don't miss Bass at all.

Of course, 3/4 of the way through the season we ALL would have traded baby back to boston, just to get out from under that contract....Baby looks well worth the money now.

Yeah, I actually liked Baby from the beginning (although I hated his shot selection). He was the only player on the roster who came in every night and gave everything....

We have to remember, this is a new team, new teammates, new coaching scheme, and little to no practices and training camps due to the lockout. Add to that all the stuff going on hin his personal life, and that's a bad combination. He has really pulled it together, though.....That trade is looking better and better.

Rondo is probably going to be suspended for bumping the ref

He better.

Hedo got suspended earlier this season, and he wasn't even being aggressive with the ref.

Of course all of the analysts will defend him, the exact opposite of what happened when Dwight elbowed Dalembert, or when Alston slapped House....they crucified those guys, but Rondo will get a free pass, just like Perkins did when he elbowed Pietrus in '09.

Stu Jackson is a crooked POS.

Wow the Clippers could have come close about 6 times in the last few minutes.. just keep choking..

Didn't get a chance to watch either game tonight. I'm a little surprised the Celtics and Sixers came up with the W tonight.

I might catch some of the Lakers/Nuggers game that's currently on right now.
