Yes. Maybe he just wants JaVale to step his Halloween photo game up.

Is it bad the first thing that went through mind was "Poor old George Karl, he's going senile"?

But then again, if Tyrus Thomas spent like an hour studying Tim Duncan we'd probably lose less hair over it. Then he could study Ray Allen, Steve Nash, Magic Johnson, Shaq, Ben Wallace, and Kevin Durant, and suddenly everyone's losing less hair watching Tyrus Thomas and NBATV can finally stop airing those damn Bosley commercials. All in a day's work.

Beal with another big game. Dude is scoring very efficiently too.

Washington will be dangerous in a year or two assuming Wall stays healthy and they nail their top 5 pick this year.

MDA and Thibs, polar opposites as far as coaches go. Chicago did it easy without Deng

Can't believe that MDA is so rigid in his thinking that he would rather bring Pau off the bench than try to adjust his system to try and utilise him better

Grizz send Speights, Selby and a 2015 first rounder to the Cavs for Jon Leur (sp?).

Diop's expiring would have worked.

That would be an even worse trade than the one for Leuer though.

Seems like Memphis also sent away Ellington in that deal. I'm so disappointed...

I think Ellington was included as well.

Is that really the best the Grizz could do to save cap space? The pretty much depleted their bench.

Speights only has 1 more year at $4.5 on his contract (after this season).

I would have eaten that for a 1st rounder.

Wonder what the protection on the pick is?

wtf Memphis got hosed some more. Pick is conveyed between 6-14 in '15 or '16 and then only top 5 prot after that. :o

Bradley tweeted after the game that he would have to take 40 shots to get 40 on him, a subliminal shot at Rondo. And rightfully so, I saw the game and I have to say that he could have done a much better job.

That doesn't really surprise me, the Celtics have their share of problems.

I can't be the only one who's over the moon about LA's struggles this season.

Normally I'd be thrilled but I'm actually completely ecstatic. My friend just bet me 30 bucks the Lakers would make the playoffs. :lol:

Can anybody see this team completely blowing up?

The Lakers are only 3 games behind the 8th seed in the West with 42 more games left. I wouldn't count them out yet. Personally I find it sad that they're playing so bad. I shifted my loathe from the Lakers to the Heat over the past couple of years.
