They are headed for mediocrity. They will never be anything special until they get rid of Mark Jackson. Ohh and the whole Andrew Bogut trade? Total waste.

Have you seen the Warriors play? They aren't playing defense and if Curry doesn't go ape shit they have no chance of winning. Mark Jackson has reached his potential as a head coach, and Andris Biedrins will have to play at center with Bogut being out again.

Well, if the Spurs played like they did tonight, i dunno! Spurs have been known to lose in the play offs early lately.

Well I really don't like Denver (0-4 this year)for the Rockets, but you can't lose to Phoenix and risk dropping to the 8th seed. Even though I don't expect Houston to beat anybody, Id hate even more for them to play OKC. Good news would be that Denver isn't very good on the road. Might grab a game or two. I guess if both GS and Houston lose out, Houston would play SA

Nice win, lakers. The cavs would be very, very happy to get that top 20 pick if you make the playoffs.

Top? Yes. Dominant? Those days are long gone. Calling Howard dominant this year is laughable too.

Not a chance. The Spurs have throttled back considerably in the last 2 weeks. When the play offs start up, you'll see the intensity ratchet up. Pop has been saying for a couple weeks that he doesn't care about the #1 seed and is going for the team being as healthy as possible when the playoffs start.

Cutting Captain Jack was a clown move

Also, I love this Rockets team. So happy they made it.
10 games over .500 with 7 guys in the 10-man rotation at age 24 or younger. And Asik is only 26. That doesn't even include T-Rob. It'll be interesting to see if they try to get another Max player, but I kind of hope they don't and stick with the young guys. Dont want Love or Josh Smith... I have faith that Terrence Jones will develop.... more so than Motiejunas or Robinson |

Apparently it was a long time coming. Jack had been complaining about not playing and his reduced role. Pop doesn't tolerate that shit. When you play on his teams, you play his type of ball and do what's best for the team. Pop didn't want that dynamic heading into the playoffs.

It's a clown move whether Pop or Jack is right. They should have just traded him if they had any respect to his wishes. They didnt, and instead ****ed over his chances to play on a playoff team, which if they traded or cut him before the deadline, you know for a fact a team like the Bulls would have picked him up in a heartbeat. It's a shit move so he cant run against them in the playoffs. |
