Hard to decide who would be better next to Biz: Hibbert or Monroe.

I dig them both.

Wonder if Kemba will get a shot at Knight tonight?

I'm sure "DJ The Prick" will keep Kemba from facing off against Knight.

I think we're going to win this game. I wouldn't dare bet on this group of ragtags right now but I think this is a game we can steal.

Prediction: Bizzy with a triple double or comes close if he plays at least 30 minutes. This is a good team to do it against.

Confused about the prick reference, and highly doubtful Biyombo gets a triple double. But I am interested to see how he does with a nice break in between games to finally get some good practice time with this hectic schedule.

That is a tough one. I'm going to try and play down my bias against Hibbert.

I would say Monroe overall, b/c he can step out farther on offense and wouldn't clog the lane for Biz, kind of be the Love to Biz's Pekovich. Plus he's a better passer I think. On defense, Hibbert with Biz providing weakside help would be stout.

Well I think Hibbert provides all those same things to a similar degree, but Monroe isn't big enough that you can for sure say that he can guard all the starting Centers. I'd go with Hibbert's size.

Bynum is my dude. Charlie V? He's a player I should like but I don't. Don't know why either.

Bynumite. That little freak kills us.

Is Villanueva even in the league any more?

I think Biz will have his hands well and truly full just trying to guard Monroe.

Monroe has young Tim Duncan like skills.

I remember watching Charlie V drop 48 a few years ago.

Now he's just an overpaid wash-up.

Looks like Hendo is starting.
DJ, Hendo, Maggette, Diaw and BB.

First time we have played as a full squad. Will be a lot of pressure on Silas to see some improvement.

I haven't seen Jonas Jerebko go off in a while, I can see him giving us trouble for some reason.
