Alright I'll give a similar warning to last time BUT...no time for post edits in this thread, anything resembling the madness from the last couple threads will be escalated immediately.

We always shoot for no drama, but as recent activity has mandated we will be monitoring the thread (and rest of the board) post by post and nothing will be tolerated anymore.




With that said, thanks for making the thread RvM and let's get em tonight!

Difficult game. Very difficult. I wish Warrick will play well in 1st unit. I think Brooks can be clutch today. He has something with Rox :) Go Suns!

Nah, he will get around 18 minutes if he's lucky and will probably go for this stat line:
11pts, 4reb, 4ass, 3to, 4pf

I'm more worried about our PF situation.
Prediction for this season: Spurs beat Heat 4:2 in the finals (the revenge of Pop)
I don't like it, but it is highly possible this season with IND and OKC struggling

I'd seriously like to see some smothering twin towers action this game with Robin at center and Gortat as the power forward. Gortat is 6'11, and Lopez is 7'0, both of those guys clogging up the paint and forcing them to shoot jumpers all the time would be good to see. Aaron Brooks is going to play well tonight, he's much faster then Dragic. I also hope when Goran comes out they give him a standing ovation.

With Nash's Pelvic injury, and us playing against Brook's former team, I think Aaron is going to go off tonight. Dude was MIP and the teams starting PG until he got his ankle injured. Came back and his job was gone to Lowry, i think Brooks has something to prove, and he will show the Rockets up tonight.

Tell you what, ol' Kerrsy.

If Brooks isn't the gorilla game, you put in a pro-Manu avatar.

If Brooks is the gorilla of the game, I'll put in a pro-Duncan avatar.

Do you accept?

No news that I see but he's been in the league for 311 games and hasn't missed a game yet. Guys a warrior. I'd be surprised if he doesn't play at least part-time considering Houston can't really lose any games like this and they have a three day break afterwards. You probably know this since you're from Argentina but others might not.

I also think we should and we will play Gortat and López atb the same time for some periods of time, as we have any other solutions, in addition.
Gortat can defend Scola to a certain distance and hope he has not a good day with his jumpers, if he finally plays.
Grant should hold Martin, so he cannot play the 4. Childres could help a little while Siler could play some too in order to compensate for Gortat's minutes at the four.
Carter should post up Martin all he can and, if they switch, Hill should Martin is he has something left in offense.
Difficult game because, with Yao out, he can defend perfectly ours 2x2s with Nash and the centers, with Warrick... should take advantage though og Miller's presence, as he is slow and cannot jump.
The greatest thrill is not in killing, but in letting live.
