Meanwhile, outside of Kemba Walker, none of their 5 recent first rounders (Gerald Henderson, Bismack Biyombo, Michael Gilchrist or Cody Zeller) will ever be stars. All are very solid players, but they gotta do better.

MKG has potential but that jumper needs work.

He's like another Gerald Wallace or Andre Iguodala. The latter is probably the peak. Even if he were to really focus on his offensive game, I think some of his other things might suffer. He's got the potential to be a lockdown defender and get 8-10 boards a game.

I dunno, it's just tough to justify taking a guy who doesn't have the potential to dominate with a #2 pick.

Watched the 2nd half of the Suns/Thunder.

Eric Bledsoe had 26 points, 14 assists and 7 boards. He had a few key turnovers late and the Thunder really took control in the 4th. I will admit, the Suns look much better than I thought. I had them in the bottom 2 or 3 in the West and with a decent shot at top 5 worst in the NBA.

But they are reviewing the play. Looks like the block will be changed to a charge because the defenders feet were outside the restricted area.

They ruled it is a block not a charge. Defender was moving so it was probably the right call. So gasol to shoot 2 with 6 seconds left, tie game.

Lakers up 2. Atl to get last shot. Korver is 6 for 6 behind the 3 point line.

They can review block/charge calls now??

Jesus that is a horrible idea...unless its a black and white review where the call is only changed based on feet in or out of circle. But it doesnt sound like thats the case based on your post.

Just got the 5 team package (Pacers, Magic, Warriors, Pelicans and Trailblazers).

For anyone who cares, PS3 struck a last minute deal with the NBA and now has the PS3 as an option to stream the games through. Made my fucking night!

Of course, they are having issues, and I was no exception.

After making the 5 team selection, the PS3 says I havent made my picks so I cant watch.

Got to speak (chat online) with a representive and complained about it all. Said they should have the app fixed at some point and are upgrading people with the issue to premium broadband. So I guess that is nice...

I watched the Cavs game last night with the free trial. I'm not sure I'd pony up the cash. My internet connection is fine and it was choppy here and there and completely cut out twice.
