Jeremy Lamb looks smooth out there. Kid has so much potential.

Reading that tweet was pretty intense for me..

That is good news.

No dealing Dwight Howard to L.A. Lakers unless Andrew Bynum comes back and he agrees to an extension.

Otherwise , I hate thought of losing another great center to the Lakers and forming another Super team.

My guess all along. I don't like Hennigan's slowness but he does have this organizations future in his bests interests and for that I'll support this team no matter how slow.

The game comes naturally to him... just scored again... easily

Lakers: We want Dwight.
Cleve: Well We want Bynum?
Rob: I want Picks and young players.
Lakers: We gave our picks away already.
Cleve: We have Tristin Thompson?
Rob: (Dial Tone)
Lakers/Cleve: "Rob you there? "

Watching Lamb and Parsons (yesterday) kind of makes me understand why the Rockets feel as if they're giving a good deal. Those 2 guys are going to be very good players that will contribute for a long time.

Yep, and Morris as well. He's made some nice improvements on offense.

I agree. I always viewed him as a stiff at Kansas. He's definitely worked on his ball handling. Looks comfortable in face-ups, off the dribble, and on the perimeter.

I'll sya it again, we need to pick up that Machado guy.

Yeah exactly, I liked the back-down to the face-up, then the strong drive to the basket with his left hand from the right elbow earlier in the game... he drew the foul I believe... he has to play more aggressively every time down.

Well I'm going to bed... I'm sure MTB or arsenal will make the next thread parts.

Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine

Jeremy Lin clock did eventually, officially start tonight after all the, uh, delays. NYK have until 11:59 PM TUES to match on Lin. Or pass

Cause they suck! Even WITH Dwight. Oh my gaad. :-?

@ESPNSteinLine: Also told Rockets, even if they unexpectedly land Lin AND Omer Asik, still think they've got Dwight trade offers (yes, plural) to please ORL

In a sense. I think the tweet is real, but the info is not true at all. I looked at Stein's twitter history and he said nothing about it being dead.
