I would absolutely love to see Orlando fall apart by not dealing Howard and losing him in free-agency.

I also like seeing NY and NJ fail. It's fun to watch teams try and take short-cuts, become overhyped, and then fail.

You just have to hate the Heat. Always want Wade n Lebron to fail.

I think the Knicks will fail anyhow, they're looking for Baron to be their knight in shining armour ffs.

I want the Clippers to succeed just so they are the No.1 team in LA. I think that would be hilarious.
I can imagine just Billy Crystal mooning Jack Nicholson after the Clippers thump the Lakers.

I don't want the Clippers to succeed. Blake and his on court demeanor rub me he wrong way and it's gotten to the point where I can't even stand the guy

Milwaukee has certainly had its share of visitors. The French missionaries and explorers began visiting there in the late 16th century. Milwaukee is in fact pronounced "mill-e-wah-que" which is Algonquin for "the good land."

"Missing the bus for the teams morning shoot around" is actually Algonquin for "where's my contract extension mother f*ckers?".

Seriously - am I not going to get any Wayne's World love here at all?

Watching the Wizards play the Celts (who they had on the ropes) and down the stretch the Wizards are taking bad shot after bad shot.

They really are the most unintelligent team in the NBA today.

I hear the Kings have an average IQ in the mid 60s.

did anyone catch the bucks game tonight? jax played 27 minutes and finished the game with 0pts on 0-for-1 from the field. when has jax ever played 27 minutes with only 1 shot. was he pulling a kobe and refusing to shot? did the team freeze him out? is this part of his pouting about contract demands? or is it just a fluke?

Tony Parker had 17 assists tonight.

Flip Saunders fired. I think he is now happy and feel utmost relief and feelings of salvation. He really was clueless and desperate what to do with that bunch. I don't think he is good coach but I doubt his defensive scheme includes situation like this (via GB thread):

Post #233 » by **Diop** » Wed Jan 25, 2012 7:26 am

Orlando are letting Orton become an unrestricted free agent. I know we already have BB and Mullens but since Diaw should be gone and hopefully we can get rid of Diop I wouldn't mind having a look at him as our 3rd string centre. At least bring him into camp and evaluate him.

Post #234 » by **fatlever** » Sat Jan 28, 2012 3:37 am

seriously, what the hell is going on in orlando? they have to fire van gundy. last 3 games: scored 56pts, blew a 27pt lead, scored 67 (in a 30pt loss to the hornets of all teams)

its over for them.

He fitted in perfectly in MSG though. I really felt bad for him after the trade happened.

I'm enjoying the struggle the Knicks are going through so much right now. Two days ago on Inside the NBA when talking about NYK, Kenny said that once a player of theirs got booed when entering a restaurant in New York by the people inside. Damn, the New York fans really are blunt.

KembaWalker · Post #237 » by **KembaWalker** » Sat Jan 28, 2012 2:05 pm

I wouldnt mind taking a look at D'Antoni when he gets fired from NYK. Silas is a nice confidence guy or whatever but these guys need to learn actual basketball. Teach Kemba how to run a pick and roll

at least after we give Jerry Sloan a blank check and he rips it up

I actually enjoy watching Felton play now because every time he does the stupid things he has done his entire NBA career I don`t care because he`s not on my team any more.

To just be able to watch his game and appreciate it the way you would a Jerry Lewis movie is actually as enjoyable as it it funny.

Hollinger has been taking jabs at Felts shape via Twitter, too all season. Some of them have been pretty good.

i never really though felton would look so out of shape. he was always known for being such a hard worker. he has really packed on the pounds the past 2 years though. it kills the best part of his game, which coming out of college, was his speed. now his just an overweight pg who cant shoot consistently and cant beat guys off the dribble like he once could. if the blazers really want to make a deep run felton needs to get his ass back into top shape.
