Well, the addition of McGee has done wonders for Denver's defense. They've yielded 117, 121 and 115 in McGee's 3 games.

I hope that those who said we need to get rid of the knuckleheads meant that that would be the first step to fixing this team and not the only. We are still lacking competent scoring and shooting from anyone. Crawford is inconsistent and inefficient. Wall can't take over offensively very often. Our bigs are not developed.

We need better players now that we got rid of the problem players.

Seraphin has been running hard. He's probably winded. Also, Whit didn't want him to pick up the 3rd foul.


Oh no, I'm not legitimately upset by the move. I'm just offended that the Wizards are reduced to actually inserting Brian Cook into games.

That is, indeed, offensive.

Hurts to be without your starting PG. . . especially in the college game.


I don't like Carolina but I felt for Stillman White. He's a fourth-string point guard and KU dared him to shoot the entire game (when he was in). Nobody ever really pressured him. They just slumped off him and doubled down on Zeller or Henson. UNC lost all 3 point guards for the year. Tough to win that way. I think Kentucky might win by 15 over Kansas. Not super impressed with their defense. Robinson can score but he struggled to rebound against Henson. Might be more of a tweener. Tyshawn Taylor had a strong game but he's also liable to put up a stinker.

Getting rid of McGee while Ernie was GM and Wittman coach was premature. Could have got rid of the knuckleheads another way.

Crawford was a much worst culprit than McGee. His shot jacking is really bad, before trade and after.

Really. Virtually everyone around here was saying just that, practically word for word.

To be fair Seraphin has played 19 minutes in the first half.

When he gets an offensive rebound sometimes he rushes the shot and goes up too weak. He blew a couple of easy ones like that. I would like to see him attack the rim more aggressively.


Yeah. Let's play him 48 minutes with a 3 in 3 back end coming up tomorrow and no other center on the bench. I don't get why everybody gets so upset when we actually go to the bench when we are playing out the string.

And what were you going to get for Crawford? A pair of MJ's?

Karl is going to fool around and get fired. Karl's lineups are terrible.

McGee isn't the problem in Denver. Al Harrington with Wilson Chandler is not working. Andre Miller is hurt and really shouldn't be playing.

Since Mcgee has been traded they have beaten 2 bad teams and nearly beat 3 playoff teams. This is the first out of 7 games when they haven't been competitive.

I have no problem getting rid of Young and Vale. I was and still concerned about Nene's contract and health. The trade is a major risk and I wonder if Ted just wanted to make a move to excite the fanbase. Not sure if it was totally EG who wanted to get rid of his own draft picks. But even though they are flawed, there's just a better feeling of team ball when Nene is on the floor. Obviously Crawford is still the liability but we need his scoring to be competitive.

Crawford should not touch the ball early in the clock.

Celtics look disinterested. Maybe we make it a game in the 2nd half.

And the lead is 10

Good thing I showed up :D

Boston just seems to be missing shots now. They got looks. A couple Js from the top of the key from Wall. KS in the post. Crawford for the and 1 and they are right back in it.

A good defensive team can stay in games. That was a quick run.

I feel good about picking Seraphin off the waiver wire.
