+1000

It upsets me to see some negative nancies on here saying we're going to lose more this month right during literally the best performance we've seen from the team in 11 frigging years.

Our team and fans have been through too much. The Dwight Howard thing was too long ago.

Kick every frigging team's ass I say.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

I think we're going to continue to see Paolo take a leap this season, he'll avg more ppg as the season goes on

If he can continue building on his 3 & defense, get better at protecting the ball on drives, & improves at making quick decisions, specifically when he has the ball & is caught between passing or shooting, he will be a top 5 player in the NBA in his prime, no question

The difference between trying to win and trying to tank while also running a hospital ward.

Yeah he's nuts no lie :lol:

I still think he should sit out a couple games to rest up, esp the game against the Pistons

I think the conditioning team, Coach Mosely, & Suggs need to redefine what "healthy" is for Suggs because of his football mindset. We can't judge if he's okay compared to the rest of the team.

All I can think of is at the end of his rookie season when he played through a fractured ankle for a month or 2

Suggs like to do the rope a dope.

I dont want Suggs playing if hes not healthy, but him being questionable is good news I guess.

We don’t need Suggs playing hurt.

The Detroit game scares me. Pistons are getting healthy and we are at our most injured. Detroit has lost an astronomical number of games in a row and should be desperate. We struggle against strong guard play, with losses to Atlanta, Cavs, and Mavericks.

They did just lose Duren for a couple of weeks to a sprained ankle which helps as he's played quite well for them.
