    That said, Byron needs to start playing the young guys.

    Tanks to Carlos Boozer tonight, who shot 4-11 and was a -15 on the evening. Great job Booz! Now if we could just get Sacre and Black minutes over Hill and Davis....

    Except when we force fed Dwight and he looked like a poor man's Kwame Brown in the post.

    Why would anyone build an offense around Dwight? There is a reason Kobe told him to be Tyson Chandler and not Shaq.

    Whoa.....Whoa....Whoa.....where are you going with that thought? "Shirley", you can't mean you were down for passing the torch to that guy when Kobe Bryant was still on the team and playing great pre achilles tear? [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Why did Lin wait until after the deadline to start playing? Trying to avoid a trade? Wish he would've waited until his next destination.

    Yep, the only things he is going to accomplish from here on out is get himself a new contract and hurt the tank. Wish we would just bench him.

    Back on track, losing to a star-less OKC. That win streak this week was blatant competence by the staff. All 3 of the previous games were completely losable. Lets get everybody on the same page here.

    Update for March 2nd:

    Philly is hosting Toronto.
    Wolves are hosting the Clippers. I hope they can win this game today.

    ^ Toronto managed to lose to NY, maybe they'll lose to Philly too.

    I still have faith in the 4th spot. I'd love the 3rd, but I still have faith this pick is ours.

    The only focus is not letting Orlando get to us.

    We should be fighting for the 2nd spot. Damn these unnecessary wins...

    Crap. Without the win streak we are right there for the number one pick. Still time to pull out a top 3 pick, but man...

    Not only that but with Lin, Ellington, Hill, Wes all going nuts to try to get new contracts (or their option picked up) and Byron not being smart enough to bench them we are in big, big trouble. With Denver and Orlando losing like crazy I honestly don't see us finishing 3rd or even 4th. Just too many guys playing their a**** off because their careers are on the line and there are so many games left on the schedule where they can do serious damage. We will end up praying for lottery luck because our coaches and front office aren't making the necessary moves to lose like they should.
