Im gonna like this Jae Crowder kid

I think the team people may be over looking is the Clippers. That teams depth is going to give them a chance.

I expected the Lakers to start out rough. Howard isn't quite Howard yet. Their bench is still weak. I favor them, but SA, OKC, and the Clippers will all contend. They won't get the cake walk the Heat will get.

He's feeling it for sure.

I keep waiting for the day where Gasol will get a call for getting elbowed in the face over and over or at least go off and start firing on somebody's mug but I am getting the feeling neither will ever happen.

Our bench is garbage.

I can't believe we couldn't find someone better than Jordyn Hill.

If your not going to play D and your bigs won't stand up for themselves when they are being constantly hacked with no calls you don't deserve to win. I am pretty much gonna crash unless their effort changes really quick.

Meh, he was decent last year and didn't cost too much.

Bet you he misses these.

Finally a friggen call on hacking a big. I didn't even think they would call that. Hill will b alright.

Told you.

I'm savoring this because I know there's a 50/50 chance the Mavs won't make the playoffs.

No effort by the Lakers tonight. 2-7 footers and get killed on the offensive glass. It's a long season, but they are going to have to play a lot harder than this.

Carlisle is a hell of a coach. You'll have a good shot.

Maybe. I just don't see it.
