Never. That would be illegal. That's why I stuck with pot... [rimshot]

Goddamn Ridnour. I don't know how one player can single-handedly kill of the team's momentum, but he managed to do it quite easily.

That was a pretty entertaining game...watching Earl damn near single-handedly pick apart the Grizz despite being 19 down was quite impressive.

You know, if he wasn't making so much money, I'd be a big fan of Wally Z.

how about earl...what a game. if we were gonna trade him, now might be a good time, especially if we're gonna take a PG in the draft. I don't imagine he'll be wanting to play another season as a back up PG on a rebuilding team.
Awesome game though.

Great game by Earl. I have to say Earl has shown in the last 5 games more than Luke has shown in his entire career.

I have been wanting to trade Earl and hang on to Luke but quite simply I have been wrong. Luke needs to be the one to go. Earl has really been playing well and he is more reliable off the bench.

Jeff Green come on man we know you have hops to don't have to try to hide them from us and brick a lay in. That had monster dunk ESPN highlight written all over it.

Actually that play gave me a Nick Collison flashback from the Spurs series when he choked the bunny. (ick)

12 times D5? Really. I don't partake anymore but I have hit it 12 times in a day. Heck there were probably mornings that struck 12.

I can't mess with it anymore. It makes me (Please Use More Appropriate Word). Save the punch line Dick I know it's up on a T.

Lastly, when Wally expires I want him back on the cheap. He's a good guy to have on a team if he's healthy. He may not bring the D but over all that guy is a plus.

I've been one of Luke's biggest supporters since I first saw him take the court from the stands at Mac Court...but I'm tired of waiting for him to get it. Earl's had his bad games for sure, but Luke just seems to be pouting again. He needs to be over that by now.

^Agree.

Last night I almost felt happy thinking he'd been traded when I didn't see him sitting on the bench early in the game. Unfortunately he was wearing a green warm up, hiding in the sea of white everyone else on the bench was wearing.

i was all over luke last year but was still willing to give him a chance. i thought he just needed to nut up, now i think he should pack up. he just isn't getting it, or doesn't want to get it. if there was ever a guy who could use a "change of scenery", its luke.

So is 8 minutes the big look that PJ's giving Swift? Or is he just not ready for more time on the floor at this point?

i think they want to ease him back in. rushing back is what got him here in the first place. 30 games left, no hurry.

PJ told the media on Monday that those lineup changes wouldn't be made before the end of the week.
He most likely believes that Thomas is gone by Thursday and probably wanted to give him a last home game before they'll ship him out.
