30 and 16 tonight for Greg Monroe. Still 2 minutes left. Pistons suck but he's progressed nicely.

Mike Conley airballs a freethrow lol
Bill Walker throwing in some 3's albeit nearing garbage time but they count just as much.

Wasn't Conley perfect from the line this year?

Orlando is built almost like they were in 2009... A lot of shooters around Dwight and Dwight actually has some post game this year.

They would be legit if they could guard anyone on the perimeter, Dwight can only cover up so much. That team goes as Hedo goes imo. When Hedo is good they are extremely tough to beat, when he is stay out partying every night Hedo they are average.

That's friggin brutal. You'd think a superstar would care more about honing his craft.

21-39 is an improvement for Howard. He is shooting 45% from the line this year.;)

That's pathetic. You'd think he'd work on improving that, just like Lebron would suck up his pride and develop his game on the block.

In Lebron's defense he is already satisfied with his game so he doesn't need to work on anything.:laugh:

The fact that Howard's game has pretty much reached it's ceiling, like Lebron's, leads me to believe Dwight feels the same way.

I guess Dwight does want out of Orlando since he can't lead them to a title either and wants to join other superstars to chase one.

Lebron has probably posted up more this year than he ever has in his career, hence why he is shooting like 60% from the field.

I'll be watching Bulls-Celtics tonight with some buddies (hopefully Rose plays), then trying to catch some of LAL-Cle at the bar. Good night of games tonight.

I think Dwight is vastly improved in the post. He's finally got some nice go-to moves.

Shaq was never a great FT shooter either, but he's one of, if not the best centers to ever play the game.

May have already been posted but I heard on the drive home that Howard has been working with Mark Price as a free throw coach.

The Wizards would lose to most of the teams in the top 25.
