He has been in the league way too long to try and get away with the **** he constantly tries to get away with IN WINNING TIME! His game makes me want to chunk kittens into the nearest creak. Every time he bates a ref by flopping on picks or throwing himself into the nearest defender/coach/cheerleader/mascot I want to muay thai grade school children. Every time he looks off an open player so he can Black HOLeD the ball and chunk up bull **** I want to heel kick volunteer candy stripers! The faster we get him out of houston the better.

There's a rumor floating around the board that you don't like Kevin Martin's game too much. Is there any truth to that?

Utah has New Jersey's first rounder, so he'll probably gone by when we pick anyways.

:(

Good riddance.

1-2 from the field and 23123123213 - 23123123213 from the FT line? His TS% would be at like 9999%.


Kevin Martin is a 2nd/3rd option. I dont mind him too much. We just have to go out and find that 1st option so Pumpfake can run amok in the first 3 quarters and then hide somewhere in the corner in the 4th quarter where he belong.

Lee's been playing out of his mind the last 6-7 games, he's looking like something good, with elite defense.

Hayes would have gotten more minutes if the Suns didn't give Gortat significant PT. We bring in Brad Miller and got a series of mental lapses. :lol:

And who can we get with PHX's pick that will land us a superstar that ORL or NY's pick won't get us. The bottom half of the first round has no one special AKA no one worth tanking the rest of the season for. I'd take my chances trying to make the playoffs. I mean, Jimmer Fredette, really?

Brad Miller :nonono:

I wasn't this into a Rockets game in a while. Had TWO chances to tie the game, but Miller messed up both, Lowry should have just taken the shot again in transition.

Why would I dislike Euros?
Thinking about it I actually may not be all that big on Euros, but my dislike for Dragic goes beyond him being a dirty Slovenian. ( :) )

To be honest I haven't really made my mind up about Dragic and this Jimmer talk was just nonsense. I don't know how he'd fit in either. I was just mad we lost the game.
I'm the last guy that wants to tank and I'm still hopeful we make the playoffs.
That said, you gotta be realistic and look ahead. We won't do anything without a good center. I love Chuck, but we all know he's a backup on a championship team. I woudn't mind trading Scola for a high pick, so we can draft somebody like Jonas Valanciunas. He's one of the few Euros that, from what very little I've seen, I do like and I'd be more than comfortable with Patterson starting.

As for Jimmer the prospect, I simply like the guy. He's a joy to watch and even though you gotta question how his game is going to translate to the NBA due his lack of athleticism/explosion and foot speed, I'd probably still take him over those other guys I see floating around in all the mock drafts. Granted I haven't watched all these guys and I don't watch all that much College basketball in general, but so far no other prospect I've watched has impressed me in the slightest.

EDIT: Just watched another Valanciunas game. Dude is still very raw. Needs to eat more meat and hit the weight room badly. Sets illegal screens on every possesion. Looks a bit a off balance moving, but he's pretty active, keeps the ball high and got good size. Would get abused in the NBA as of right now, as he's simply too weak. In an average draft this guy probably goes no higher than #10. Enes Kanter is probably twice as ready, but I'm not convinced he's a pure center.
I really want a center tho :( . Preferably a big black guy.
