Lakers finally win a good road game at Memphis. 2Ot's.
Bynum with 37 & 16
Bryant with 34/9/5

Hopefully Gasol is traded tomorrow for a PG.

Bucks now have two of the biggest shot jackers in the league in the same back court, good luck with that Coach Skiles.

This, or the fact that they weren't going anywhere with him. They obviously want to invest in the future of Steph Curry and want to get better defensively. Bogut is hurt a lot but he affects the game in a lot more areas than Ellis does, all he does is score.

Not like Curry is an exact model of health either though.

True, ankles have been a problem. I think they've had a long enough look at Montae, they know what he is and were ready to move on.

The Warriors are going to struggle to score. Bogut and Curry are also both made out of glass. This was a terrible move IMO

You dont like Jennings game? Arent you A fan of D-will though as one of the best Pgs in the league? They put up about the same shooting numbers, almost identical in %'s and attempts. I think the Bucks obviously arent gonna win anythign with that front court of theirs, but that backcourt is scary

I like Jennings game, he just takes bad shots. Perhaps because he has had to with Bogut out and Stephen Jackson in the dog house with Skiles. With this trade, maybe he gets a fresh start along with Montae. That's just a lot of shots from your primary ball handlers. They will have to find a way to make that work. Offensively they could be a pretty scary match up for any opponent, but neither brings much in terms of defense.

DWill is having a down year because he really doesn't like NJ.

Look at their career averages and it's no contest. DWill is above 45% from the floor and avergaes 9 assists. Jennings is a career 38% from the floor and averages about 5 assists a game.

DWill >>>>> Jennings.

I like Jennings game, but he doesn't seem to make teammates better.

Just read that, looks like he resigned. Doesn't matter who the coach is, Melo and Amare aren't going to become good defenders, and until that happens that team isn't winning anything.

I think NY is starting to turn on Carmelo. I read an article earlier today about how the return of melo has screwed up the offense. He was frequently in the wrong spot which hurt the spacing and flow of the offense. And because of this it was having an effect on their already bad defense just compounding the problem.

Does Melo last in NY or is it starting to look like a failed experiment?

They are definitely turning. The papers have been blasting him daily.

Damn you. LOL

Hell, I'm a Syracuse fan and a Knicks fan and I mostly blame Melo for this too. What a letdown after Linsanity and the optimism and excitement that it brought. Back to losing again. That is the life of a Knicks fan....

Dwight is one weird fucker. I mean make up your fucking mind. He's wanted traded to 20 teams, wanted help for his current team, and now wants to not opt out. Dudes worse then lbj.
