I'd love for Tapp to just say, "Hey we're gonna lose. Let's get Crit-i-cal!"

You won 3 out of 4 last season, so you are the favourites tonight. I heard Arenas is still laughing after your last win! :lol:

I am looking forward to seeing your young guys tonight...

Anybody know if the newcomers are suiting up? If we had Haywood, this would be close. KG, Perkins and the like are gonna have a field day. McGee will probably start well then get benched because he obviously didn't get the tank memo.

Hey! We almost knocked-off the Lakers when they got lazy, maybe the same will happen tonight.
Throw a tall-ball lineup at-em.

More for show I suspect. I'd be surprised if they sniffed more than garbage time.....depends on how Juan does I suppose.

We're going to win by 20, easily.

Insider mentioned that James is more likely to get immediate minutes, since he's a (of course) veteran. I forget what it said on Crittenton, but I imagine that makes him the fifth guard, at least in the short term.

BruceO · Post #17 » by **BruceO** » Fri Dec 12, 2008 1:04 am

Time to whoop their butts. I think javaris and Mike James might play some. I so want to watch Javaris vs Rondo and Blatche vs Garnett and Nick vs Ray Allen. I'm so excited we are finally moving towards getting a team that fits prototypical championship teams. A Sg who puts pressure on offense. A PF capable of playing the Center spot, a Pg who can put pressure on offenses with slashing abilities and quicks. The X factor McGee. Our Bench is set Javaris, Young, McGuire, Blatche, McGee. Now if only we can get the Blake griffin charector.
Also we need to change our starting SG and Our starting PF to go along with the prototypes. I want rudy here. I want Battier here, and I want griffin here. Stevenson out and Etan out. I'd also sacrifice Jamison to get those three pieces I wanted
I'd put this squad against san antonio, Boston, LA and cleveland
Gilbert/ Javaris
Rudy/ Nick Young
Caron/ battier/ Mcguire
blatche/ Griffin/ Songaila
Haywood/ McGee

barkley says we have zero chance of winning this game lol. we are not a full strength but atleast this time I'm happier about our guard rotation without Gilbert. I hope Javaris shows why we were so high on him against Rondo. It'll be important to show he can compete. I can't wait for when our team moves into becoming a monster on everyones arrival. Barring any agenda to tank ofcourse. (the only spots with good players is 1, 2. Rubio and Blake. Possibly thabeet and Hardin. Everyone else is overrated and 22 pg's may come out lol. Lets get Deshawns replacement next draft if we dont get our man

Literally, the announcers have not stopped talking about McGee, and we're five minutes into the game.
