No, she's not dry. She's hot, like the tub you didn't get into instead of making a thread.
Thanks for the link.

Man Jefferson is a beast pulling down 12 offensive boards?

We'll still roast them though. If we lose well there's something wrong... I hope Chucky trade goes through. He's barely played anyway... and we use that TPE for someone else

What's TPE? Is it the same as MLE?


P.S. I don't really like the font used for the game thread :(

win this game... and we have a good chance of moving to seed #2.

i know it's still early... but seriously, when was the last time the Nuggets have been number #2?

George Karl runs the worst rotations in the league, no question.
I can't keep watching him give more time to both AC and Chucky than JR, while Balkman sits on the bench racking up DNPs. It's ridiculous.

Is there a reason for JR smith playing such little minutes??? i mean he had that one turnover then he wasnt back in till garbage time... whats going on there? after a 32pt night???

I couldnt believe i had to watch Billups, AC, and Chucky on at the same time... I hate George Karl

yay win.

time for the toronto board to start another thread speculating that jr's gonna be shipped there for joey graham.

atkins is awful.
billups played great.
melo still can't shoot.
andersen falls for every pump fake.

nothing new.

At least we dont lose any more game for scrubs anymore, i can understand Karl rotations eighter, im sure its something personnal against Jr. but well, we have to get used because will not change anymore...
