Irving ABUSED lillard last night. Fun game to watch for sure. TT keeping it up, which is incouraging.

If you watch the highlight play, Lillard does his best Te'o GF impression. *Ba dum*

I think you could punch Luke Walton in the face during a play and he would get called for the foul

Maybe. But luke Walton should never be on the floor. I have no idea how he's still in the nba. He's trash!

I hate Luke Walton more than any player, ever. I swear he averaged multiple airballs a game, even if he only shoots 3 times.

Sucks for Andy, hope he recovers well. Still pissed that we didn't trade him though.

Would keep him. Brings too much value to the team to trade him.

Sucks about Andy

Now it's time to see what TT and Zeller are made of

Good news is that Dion has been playing some solid ball as of late, seems like things might be slowing down for him

Dion and TT have def stepped it up, just hope it starts to translate into wins next year. Still wouldn't take a late first for Andy.

And would you like me to do the same thing you just did for all the all-stars that were taken at the end of the 1st round?

The chance of getting an all star in return for Andy is good enough for me to be okay wiht trading him, especially considering a) we're going nowhere with him b) he is old and c) he can't stay healthy.

Don't worry guys, the Lakers apparently have strong interest in making a trade for Boobie.

Boobie and Walton for a Hill out for the season. Lets do it!

Then the Lakers sneak into the 8th seed and we get their pick. They still have a good shot. Only 4 games out, and lets be honest, it cant get worse.

Just filed to ESPN: Cavs & Grizzlies are in talks on a deal that would send Marreese Speights & Josh Selby for Jon Leuer. Picks involved

Selby haha

I'd love it if he turned it around all of a sudden...but I watched almost every game of his at Kansas, the kid simply isn't very good.

The only all star taken at the end of the first round in the last ten yrs is David Lee. Lee has also battled injury issues.

Speights would be a solid add.

This is really the only relevant player in the deal. I'm assuming Memphis will get a second rounder in the deal as well. Solid add for the Cavs especially with Varejao out.

Lakers won't make the playoffs. I could see Houston and Utah dropping out, but Dallas is going to sneak in and both Portland and Minnesota are better teams than the Lakers.

Some notable players taken late 1st or 2nd.

Mo williams
Marc gasol
Carlos boozer
Luis scola
David lee
Jameer nelson
Andy vareajo
Kevin martin
Nikola pekovic
Deandre Jordan

Overwhelmingly most late 1st and 2nd picks don't add up to much. But there can be great value. I was a fan of keeping him for year. Sucks he got hurt, but I'm glad to see TT step up. Hopefully Andy comes out strong next year And we move him
