Indeed. When evaluating the work done this past summer, a lot of people (particularly some visiting mods that are welcome to repent :-D ) looked at the top end of the deals this summer and completely overlooked the complementary pieces. That was a mistake on their part.


Don't go too attached to Willy, Kuz, and KOQ.

What if Sacramento would take some combination of them along with Noah for Cousins?

I know it's highly unlikely and Cousins probably wouldn't work. All I am saying is that these guts are raising their value assets and maybe part of Phil would not be opposed to making a "Kwame Brown for Pau Gasol" type of trade in the future.

Away game + back to back is not a good recipe for the knicks

We'll definitely lose, Charlotte has lost four in a row


We pulled it off against the Bulls last season. It completely demoralized them and made them stop caring about making the playoffs.

His shooting has been ass and his defense was awful tonight. Got torched by Bellineli and he keeps throwing up bricks. He gets so many open looks and momentum changing shots that he just keeps bricking. We need this guy to hit those shots when we look to take the life out of the other team but his bricks usually do the opposite and bring life back to the other team.


He actually makes really good team plays and passes the ball effectively, even when his shots not falling...

ultimate glue guy, I'm all in on Lee

It's because the East is garbage :D It's filled with all these scrub teams - Celtics, Raptors, Hawks, Hornets, Bulls, Pistons, Pacers - that are all on more or less the same level.

Unless it nets us a superstar on the cheap, we'd be really stupid to trade away players like gomez and kuz especially with the contracts they have.

Hey, it's a win-win. We will either keep our guys and watch them grow, or we'll trade them for better guys we'll love just as much.

Derrick Rose did not bring anything tangible over to give Melo for Thanksgiving.

He brought love.

What can we get for a Lee + Lance Thomas or Joakim Noah package? Lol

You spelled including wrong. If both Melo and KP are on we can hang with the cavs as well.
