Pekovic ... I just like watching him whether he has a positive effect or not.

Anyway, I agree PG play has been a key drag, but so has defense. Tonight, even Love showed some quicker decisions on the defensive end ... I was quite impressed on our team defense at times in the second half.
Flip response to Love wanting out, "He has no reason to be upset, you're either a part of the problem or a part of the solution"

The Hornets board has a thread on their first page where the last post is Oct 27, 2010. Ugh...

That board is as dead as their attendance is even though they got a winning record. :lol:

"But...But we have another message board and the...the Saints, yeah! The Saints make us not go to games! Just wait until the Saints suck, then we will go to the games! and unemployment. So you see, those are all valid reasons to keep the team in New Orleans and not have them relocate!"

LOL. Yeah, it's pretty sad in a pathetic kind of way. I hate to talk bad about other cities/franchises but I'd love to see that team move to Seattle.

For the last few years, the few NOH fans would regularly rip me when I'd say that Shinn's financial situation was getting desperate.

As of June 30, 2009, the partners' deficit totaled $83 million


Shinn sold the team the day before he was to make the first payment on his loan from the NBA, something he couldn't afford it when the sale fell through to Chouest.

If the Wolves were winning and showed the same lack of support year after year, I would begrudgingly be in favor of relocation.

Us "smaller market" teams should band together, because we get lumped into the contraction/relocation talk, but if they can't even go to the games while they are winning, and have one of the most dynamic players of this era, it's hard for me to feel sympathy.

That is the exact reason why I was not upset at all when a lot of the Tampa Bay Rays players bolted and signed with other teams. One of the best and most exciting teams in baseball and yet they are ranked 22nd in attendance. How pathetic is that? A city doesnt deserve such an awesome team with that putrid level of support

But yea, Ive actually thought our defensive rotations looked better in the last few games. Hopefully this continues

Most impressive stat of the night was Beasley with 7 assists, thats almost doubles his season total :lol:

But to be honest these last 2 games he has shown that he can be an all around player sooner than later. He is seeing the court but what has really impressed me is his defense is improving. Don't get me wrong he is not there yet, but he is showing that he wants to be a leader.

Durant just said Darko is one of best centers in the league. For once, I'm not being sarcastic in a tweet. #Twolves
