I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that we all are more often wrong than right.

Can't we all just get along?

I miss Jaruff, he always had some wacky ideas.

Or trade for Derrick Rose. Now is the time to do so.

Is Thomas Robinson a better stretch 4 than Cody Zeller? If so then we should've traded for him when he could've been had for peanuts and drafted McLemore instead. Oh hindsight. What's done is done now so I want Zeller to keep playing aggressive until he get it together.

I really HATED the idea of us drafting Robinson anywhere in the top 5, but was (and actually still am) a proponent of trying to get him for 2nd round picks. If we had done that, I believe we would have still drafted Zeller since Cho absolutely loves him.

At the time, I thought that would've been a wise move for the Bobcats, but I wasn't that big on Thomas Robinson so I didn't dwell on it after he was traded to Portland

What's with all the broken hands? JJ Redick, Anthony Davis, Paul Pierce. Weird, it's usually knees.

Brown finished as the Euroleague’s fourth-best scorer in November, with 18 points per game, while also contributing heavily on defense, posting 24 rebounds, 6 blocks and 5 steals. He did all of it with a true shooting percentage of 67.29%, meaning that for every 3 points he attempted, Brown made more than 2 of them. Keeping in mind that defenses were focused on stopping him every time he touched the ball, that efficiency is a big reason that Lokomotiv won four games and that Derrick Brown will receive his bwin MVP for November award at an upcoming home game in Krasnodar.


yep...i always like D-Brown

The fact that the Lakers are 9-9 with a glorified Expansion team this far kind of blows my mind.

Try not to laugh, but the Houston Rockets are asking for two 1st round picks for backup center, Omer Asik

Philly will have 2 really high picks with the Anthony Davis out. Plus they get back Nerlens Noel. They'll have 3 solid young players to go with MCW. They should have the money to lock up Turner.

I believe that there's a good chance that Hinkie won't even try to retain Turner because he wasn't one of his very own picks as the GM, especially considering Turner's inconsistencies beforehand

I expect a sign and trade with Turner. I don't see them keeping him and I don't see them letting him walk.

OKC should jump ALL OVER that. 2014 and 2016 1sts + Perkins for Asik. Hell they should even give them Perry Jones to make that happen. It's not like they're asking for lotto picks.

Homer Omer is a good center, solid defense and rebounder but i dont know about 2 1st round picks, maybe if those picks are in the mid-late 20's its probably a good deal
