  1. If only there was some actual center-sized center whose team was desperately trying to trade him.

  2. Simply no one available to challenge Lopez in the lane. Don't know if even Sanders would have made a difference in putting up any kind of resistance to Lopez. Hope he's real proud of himself stealing a paycheck.

    Also their offense is a mess. No one moves without the ball. No one has enough smarts to cut into the lane. The guards stand at the 3 pt line dribbling between the legs for 10 seconds, then pass to another player who does the same, and then someone throws up a jump shot. Wolters is especially bad at the former and OJ Mayo at the latter. If that's the kind of offense they wanted, they could have kept Jennings. All of that meaningless crap and mindless dribbling was his specialty.

  3. hensons going to be a really nice player once he fills out, gets in the right position, and gets some quality coaching. probably with another organization. and why not play giannis more? eppy oopy gives them nothing so whats to lose. at this point who plays where is hardly significant. just play guys who have something to offer now but mostly in the future. did we all think Brandon knight was better than this? including Brandon knight?
  4. Another loss directly related to Sanders and the bar fight. What a "face" for the team. A season of hope shot down by one selfish act of the "face of the franchise". Terrible just terrible.
  5. ________

    Caught the second half of this thriller, and was reminded why
    Jim Paschke needs to go away. And, that man next to him who
    seemingly insists that each moment be filled with the sounds
    of his voice, or Jims'; momentary, and necessary marks of silence,
    lost as Mc> drones on about something.

    I'm frustrated with this teams lack of energy (If Jim Pash> tells me
    one more time their tired I'm going to lose it), and serious deficiency
    in any sort of offensive prowess; save those brief zones when the jump
    shot of the night is falling.

    That frustration finds me 'short' with this TV Crew as they
    whine, and annoy me with their endless banter. I respect everything
    that is J. MC> and what he's done for this team, and city.
    But. The guys gotta go>

    Wait...there's another jump shot.

  6. _______-

    CHICAGO -- Brandon Jennings and Detroit's big men helped the Pistons to their first successful trip to Chicago in seven years.

    Jennings scored 33 points and the Pistons beat the short-handed Bulls 92-75 on Saturday night for their fourth consecutive victory.
    12-22...5-8...4-4... 25 >

    *The kidd had a couple of 'Big Dog Yank" moves at the three point
    line that had the wounded Bulls falling to the floor. Add five assists to
    that line above, butt slaps by teammates, and a very confident look on his
    face, and if one pays attention, this Jennings is starting to find a groove
    with his new club. Not a guy you want on your team if losing is paramount>?

    Is there something to this?

    @cf_gardner @nbated Is Gary Neal in Larry Drew's doghouse? DNP last night, didn't appear in 2nd half tonight.

  8. Good news sports fans, some sorely needed national media attention:

    (from SI on the five biggest letdowns in the Eastern Conference)

    C: Larry Sanders, Bucks

    There’s not much to say about Sanders’ body of work because there isn’t really a body of work to examine. Milwaukee’s franchise center has played 52 minutes all season (fewer than he would have liked when healthy, to be sure), the same number logged by Magic guard Arron Afflalo during Tuesday’s double-overtime thriller against the Sixers. Holding a legitimate injury against a player would be unfair, which is why Bulls guard Derrick Rose doesn’t appear on this list. Unfortunately, hurting your thumb during a late-night club brawl so badly that you require surgery and a six-week absence does not qualify as a “legitimate injury.” In some ways, Sanders is lucky to be playing in Milwaukee: Imagine what would happen if a Knick, Net or Laker found himself in the same situation.

    Wonder how O.J.'s feeling this A.M.?
    ("What could I have done different..."?)

    Madison - Marquette guard Todd Mayo has been suspended for the Wisconsin game for a violation of team rules.

    He's on the bench in his warmups.

    Mayo, a junior, has been sent home and academically suspended during his career.

  10. Also from SI, a story as old as the NBA itself:

    "But Parker, like any NBA prospect, isn't without his question marks. The biggest concern is his NBA position. At 6-foot-8, he has the skill inside and out to play either forward position and score. But can he defend bigger power forwards in the NBA? And is he quick enough to handle professional wings?"

    Whoever we draft in this lottery of lotteries, let him be big enough, fast enough, and offensively skilled enough to play his pro-position. No more "tweener forwards", no more "combo guards", no more shot blocking Frankensteins, PLEASE!
