Had 5 blocks tonight, we know he can score, just needs to tighten up defensively and on the boards.

They definitely are. It's pretty pathetic to lose to the Pistons and Wizards back to back. Not characteristic of a championship team.

Not playing like one right now, that's for sure.

Kris Humphries just had an unreal block on a Blake Griffin lob. I really like his game, gritty, sets good screens, relentless on the boards. Really makes you work for everything you get.

Every time I see highlights of a raptors game in toronto, I freak out that someone is going to get hurt tripping over the sign under the basket... But it's just in 3D. Crazy though!!

I believe early in the season I mentioned Kobe's quote about the offense not even done with the "blue prints" yet. I think all Cleveland fans know that Mike Brown knows shit about offense. He can do defense, but not offense.

Well it looks like the Lakers and the fans are starting to realize this.

I really don't think Brown lasts longer than next season unless he can get a top offensive assistance in to take control of that mess.

Actually just read an article that says he's (Evan Turner)starting the rest of the year, I'm guessing to give him some confidence.
It is sink or swim time for Turner in Philly.Collins has said that Turner will start the rest of the year at the PG position. Good luck, Evan !!!

Mike Brown is a terrible coach, because he can't adjust his offense. He has no clue what to do on the offensive end. Yes his teams play great defense, but whats that going to win?

I laughed at LA hiring him the second I heard it.

I was a bit perplexed by it as well. They hired him really quickly as well if I remember correctly. Glad to see some lakers are already QQing about the triangle offense coming back. Funny thing is when Phil came back to the Lakers, I remember players QQing about using the triangle offense.

Poor Defense was why they lost last night. I am not going to throw Mike Brown under the bus for the offense not clicking yet. There was no off season and really no pre season and not much practice time between games this year. This year is a waste because of the lock out. Teams that didn't make hardly any changes are doing well and teams that made a lot of changes are not.

Good to see Mike Brown show some emotion and get angry with their performance.

Or the teams doing well are just good and the teams that aren't playing well just aren't good?

Call it an excuse if you want but when you totally switch your offense it takes practice time. LOL'd all you want.
You do realize the Playoffs start in about 40 days right and the season is 2/3 of the way over?

Exactly, 40 dyas away from the playoffs and you're already calling this season a wash because the players missed some practice time? lol
