Hate to be he one who says this, but these threads would be much easier to view with just regular pictures for the starters. Names can also help. Who's that guy in the #30 New Jersey jersey? I'm sure he's one of the recent acquisitions, but he's relatively a scrub, so a video of a lay up don't help me.

So I appreciate the hard work, and I hope you take this as positive criticism, cause I don't mean to be an arsehole about it, but I'm sure it comes out like that anyways.

I always appreciate honest opinion, I will try to fix those issues, before tip off.

a-rod, you need to add a text-list form of the games to your threads, so it's easier for people to make their picks.

Detroit
Denver
Warriors

Great to hear Nene is going to return tonight... Denver's definitely going to need all they can get from him.

0-3 fg with 3 turnovers and 2 fouls in 5 minutes of play isn't exactly going to help us tonight.

I do think our bigs will own tonight though...Malik Allen, Erick Dampier, and Brandon Bass? I'll take that matchup. Just have to worry about containing their perimeter shooting(JT/Stack going off scares me a little), and I think the Nuggets take it, as they've been pretty much unbeatable at home since the start of 08....with the only losses coming in OT to the Jazz(on some BS) and then to Detroit by a couple points(wins against teams like Boston, Phoenix, Utah, San Antonio(x2), Orlando, New Orleans, Houston).

Not in the original post, though, and that 2nd post just looked like your picks for tonight to me. But what I said was in general for your threads, not just this one, obviously. Especially since there's only a small amount of games tonight.

Like this:

team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team
team vs. team


at the bottom of your game threads, it's just a suggestion because it's more convenient to look over the list of games and make picks. Also is what is usually done in part in making game threads.

How in the world did Brandon Roy make the All-Star team over Baron Davis? Baron Davis had better stats than him and his team had a better record.

lol, it's not like that, just like I said, it's a simple suggestion that makes things better in doing the threads.
