Once Melo gets back we're a entirely different team....No need to worry about wins at this point

Since we had a bit of a set back due to heavy wave of injuries recently, i really hope Melo being cautious for his return.

Once guys come back from an injury, team should play with high focus & intensity as being grateful of having everyone healthy rather than taking it for granted.

gotta love the consistency in nba officiating.

jr smith got bumped a little by monta ellis and they called the foul and he won the game on free throws a couple games ago.
jr smith got ran through and laid out in the exact same spot on the same play...and they called nothing.

Just unreal...why would Kmart be guarding Evans in the final seconds of the game?

because he's the teams best defender.

There's really not a huge need to panic. The team has been brutalized with injuries for the last month or so. Once we get Melo and Lawson back, we just have to hope we can stay healthy after that, and string together some wins. It's not like anybody else in the West is running away with #2.

I saw the replay on NBA.com (didn't watch the actual game), and yeah, JR did get fouled there at the end. It's not even close. HOWEVER, after the last couple of Laker games, it's kinda hard to feel sorry for you guys...

Kmart needs to be traded or someone needs to be moved in order to make our team a finalist in the west IMO....With an elite center and/or PF we'd take the west

Kmart has been playing like an elite PF.

Wow, poor game for Nene, but Chauncey and Jr indeed shooted 41 ball´s with poor accuracy, like Melo Yellow.

I don't think it's a matter of feeling sorry for us. Inconsistent officiating just provides an unclear picture of who was the better team. Games where the opposing coach lets loose right before halftime and suddenly the refs are swayed means they were either poorly officiating in the 1st half or poorly officiating in the second half. Wait. The inconsistency means they were poorly officiating all game.

Tyreke is really good at fading right beneath the hoop.....but he's really good fodder for an active shot blocker since he doesn't pass a lot. One man like K pressure him man to man then shot blocker comes over and times it just right and have an amazingly fierce block since Tyreke releases so low to the ground.

But......he beat us with a couple of good moves. If we wanted to win we would have played lock down defense in the final moments.

Nene playing like little girl specially on the road. But at this point of time there is not just any available C or PF that would come to us in a trade involving Nene. I am maybe dreaming but please don't spank me guys. If we can get Chuck & Carl for Nene & Petro + Allen, would be great! Ideas???

IMO .....

1. We need to acquire decent C we can actually use to cut Nene's PT to inject a thought that he needs to compete.

2. Shooter on the 4 spot to spread the floor.

One of the above is a MUST! to get somewhere in the playoffs.

Teens On Acid · Post #35 » by **Teens On Acid** » Mon Jan 11, 2010 2:43 am

i think we'd need to look east for a trade partner for Nene.
even then it would be a long shot.

eathy · Post #36 » by **eathy** » Mon Jan 11, 2010 3:34 am

Nene + JR for Bosh.

That's what I'm hoping. FO should do it quickly before other GMs realize how soft he is.

Damn! I thought it was bad but did not think they would put it on YAHOO!

grippah26 · Post #38 » by **grippah26** » Mon Jan 11, 2010 7:39 am

I don't believe Kmart is playing like an elite PF, but we all have different thoughts....as for the bosh trade...I would take it and run with it Billips, affalo, melo, kmart and bosh would take the west.

I wonder what we could pull out of that situation in Washington. Obviously Nene has the most value, but his contract is kind of long, so who knows. Kenyon and JR each have one more year left, so that could technically save some money off a longer contract like Jamison or Butler, but I doubt there is anyway they'd settle for some crap like that.

Teens On Acid · Post #40 » by **Teens On Acid** » Mon Jan 11, 2010 9:21 am

tons of risk involved in the locker room when trading nene or jr (right now i'd prefer to keep kenyon over nene) but i think we might need the shakeup...still too early for me to make a decision. maybe after the break we'll have a clearer picture of what this team has in store for us.

i still want Karl and Carter gone.
