Dr K sayeth:

Kind of baffled and jealous. And I don't know about Sasha. I used to think the same thing about Jaric and then he started banging out my dream woman.

I meant to ask, banging out? how does one...wait...I think we found your problem.

Hey now.

Anyone else gay for Cousins?

I am. Dude is a HUGE beast.

James Anderson has scored 11 of Oklahoma State's last 16 points (16-3 run for Okie State). At one point he went on an 8-0 run. It's been all treys and one fastbreak dunk off a steal. He just drew a foul and knocked down both freebies, so 13 of 18 for him.

Yeah I'm not sure so much separates Anderson and Henry. They're essentially the same player a few years a part. Henry just has more hype.

[horaceworthy]

27 points at the half for Anderson. It'll be interesting to see what happens the 2nd half, because the last time he did this he pretty much disappeared for the rest of the game.

Yeah, right now I'm having trouble seeing what makes Henry better than Anderson too, other than being younger and playing for KU. Anderson's more athletic and a little more polished, plus he's shown he can take over games during conference play, which Henry hasn't shown.

Krap, I think I'm through with denial and ready to cop to my prospect love for Hobson. My DVR has a standing appointment with any televised New Mexico game. I got pretty upset with the last one, because the women's game that was on beforehand went into quadruple OT, so the first half ended up not being televised.

I read somewhere that Hobson is shooting like 35% over his last 10 games. Is that true?

My crystal ball says he's a future D-league star that the Warriors turn into a solid NBA player.

[dunkonu21]

I mentioned James Anderson a month ago. Mad props to me.

[horaceworthy]

Nope, not true, although the tad above 42% he's shot over that time (and the mark he's hovered around most of the year) isn't exactly stellar. The somewhere you read it was likely Givony tweet from about 2 weeks ago (true at the time). He's played 3 games since then. His last 12 games he's put up 14.7/9.6/4.3 while shooting 41.7/67.6/45.2 (on 2.6 attempts per game). Still turning the ball over a lot, but from what I've seen that's at least partially on his teammates.

I say we go Turner/Monroe/Hobson in the draft, then when we bring Rubio over we can trot out the best passing lineup the league has seen since the '86 Celtics. Monroe/Love/Hobson/Turner/Rubio. Ball never touches the floor.

Did you see Goerge returned and dropped 30? I've said it before and I'll say it again, I think his ceiling is Danny Granger. I think he has that kind of talent. Whereas Granger worked inside out, George will have to work outside in. He would be a great piece to play off of Turner.

With the Utah pick? That would work.

MN pick: Turner
Charlotte pick: Alabi
Utah pick: George

Nice scenario.

They're traveling to Mississippi St next Tuesday, great chance to see Cousins/Varnado; Cousins against a good athletic defender and Varnado vs an NBA type size/quality frontcourt w/ Patterson/Cousins. I'm looking forward to that one

Wait...I just assumed it did...does it not?

...

GAME ON!

[Krapinsky]

Aminu completely outshining Favors right now.

[cpfsf]

Grab Henry if he's available with the Charlotte pick and run.

[hotshotschamp]

talked during kentucky game rumor going around is Cousins will be coming back to school next year.

Who knows, just a rumor. He didn't play that well tonight.

[Devilzsidewalk]

i'll take that bet

[hotshotschamp]

so to recap today.

Favors did nothing
cousins didn't do much on offense, 1-8 FT shooting, rebounded well
John wall played pretty well
Aminu played well, didn't shoot the ball too well
Whiteside 10 pts, 8 rebs, 4 blocks.

Kind of a Meh day.
