I was watching the Magic/Rockets game to see Gilbert but then I also saw the Jeffries make a nice pass in garbage time. The o-face is averaging a great 1.6 ppg and 1.7 rpg- and he's shooting 32% from the field.

EFJ ruined Jeffries' game. When he was at IU he could shoot, no idea what happened.

Jared Jeffries also had a 3 point shot entering college. Jeffries has never been as good since he left EJ. Mostly I blame Jeffries espeically since every player under EJ improved offensively.

Mike Hall and the Dakota Wizards face the Austin Toros live on NBA TV at noon ET to tip off the second day of the 2011 NBA D-League Showcase in South Padre Island. This will be the opening game for both teams.


Mike Hall the biggest name on our D-League team :-?

Jamison after the 112-57 destruction at the hands of the Lakers:

"It can't be any worse than this. If it is, someone will have to help me because I don't know how much of this I can take," said Antawn Jamison, who had six points. "This by far is rock-bottom. It's definitely by far one of the most embarrassing moments that I've been a part of as far as basketball."

Not a good scene.

^^ I don't know what Jamison is complaining about. He has Alonzo Gee who had 12 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 steals.

Here are what look like more accurate quotes:

ABJCavsInsider Jamison: "13 years, I can honestly say I ain’t ever felt that embarrassed to be on the basketball court."

ABJCavsInsider Jamison: "It can’t get any worse than this. If it is, Heaven gonna have to help me because I don’t know how much of this I can take."

ABJCavsInsider Twan: "This by far is rock bottom. That’s impossible with professional athletes how you lose by 55 points. I don’t care who you’re playing"

ABJCavsInsider Twan: "The only thing that keeps me going is that Alonzo Gee dropped 12 and 8 on them"


OK, I might have made the last one up.

Amazing with how bad the Wizards are, Antwan has actually found himself in a worse situation.

Jamison bailed on us to win a championship with our mortal enemy, which turned into an epic failure. I feel no sympathy, especially considering the defense he played for us.

Meanwhile, I picked up Mr. 50 on my fantasy team last week and I have been reaping the rewards.

Jamison didn't bail on the Wizards; management traded him to our mortal enemy. And I believe Cleveland was the only team that was willing to take on Jamison and his contract (for an expiring anyways).

Jamison may not have been public about it, but he did want to play for a contender rather than the Wizards.

'Tawn was always a class act with us, so it still sucks he found himself in such a terrible situation. I doubt he gets traded though.

Jamison deserves so much more and I hope the Cavs trade him to a contender.

Jamison's on/off differential was -46. Shockingly, that wasn't the worst. Manny Harris was -57.

So that contender can go into the toilet too?

Class act my ass. Maybe Jamison should throw a tray of fruit around to get his point across. That's a prime example of his great leadership skills.

Being able to give a well spoken interview to a beat writer doesn't make one a class act.

I really can't think of a good fit for Jamison at this point. I suppose he could fit as a replacement for Rashard in Orlando. At least Dwight could cover for some of his defensive lapses. Maybe Dallas could use him again as Dirk's backup.

Unless the Cavs are willing to take back a longer contract, Jamison might not have any value in a trade until next season when he is expiring.

Wasn't Jamison constantly throwing the young players under the bus?

Although based on what we've seen this year maybe he was right to.
