    NO I have an ongoing bet with a Kings and Hornets fans, this guy needs to play for us to win some games. Just need 2 less wins than the Hornets to win this damn it

    Well there you go. BI needs to get his puss a** back on the floor.

    You have a friend who's a Kings fan?? As Pau so famously said when referring to similar with the tenants, ("this is where the parents come in"). Or should have.

    LOL... I dunno he started watching when they had CWebb and White Chocolate.

    And yes BI, there are more important things than your future health, namely my approximately $20 bet:Laugh:

    LOL, the photoshop potential with this pic. BI holding something like a waiter and Lonzo licking his chops.

    I guess none of us want to be in a position where we say "we told you so!"

    But if BI is heading in there then I really hope we can start winning and go back to sending the 12-14th overall pick to Philly instead of 8-11th.

    Agreed. It would be nice to see the team crack 35 wins.

    Even in a rusty state in limited minutes, his impact on this team is hard to miss. Good to have him back.

    I thought he played pretty smoothly out there considering the time off. Sure, 40% shooting is a little bit low, but his overall play was pretty solid. So good to have him back.

    Yeah, the rust was clearly there, some bad turnovers, but still, so great to have him back. To be able to have the ball in his hands again at the end of games is really nice, especially with Zo getting hurt. I forget if it was Stu, or Caron or Worthy who said it too, but just having him on the floor opens things up for others as he has to be guarded on the perimeter, and he can shoot or drive in on you.

    It's nice when he gets the ball because (despite some obvious rust) I really believed something could happen. Kuzma and Randle can break their guy's down off the dribble, but after those two, the only way we can get a decent shot is with sharp ball movement or a post up by Slopez.

    But Dallas is bad. In the second quarter we had a lineup of Zu-Kuz-Wear-Ennis-Carsuso out there and they couldn't build on their lead.

    doubt they were trying though, Carlisle went on a panic mode after they had a 13 point lead and pulled his starters

    I don't think you panic during games when your the head coach and clearly tanking. Looking over at their starters during the tail end of the 4th quarter, they are all used to this (not coming back into the game).

    Elgin, you wanna tell 'em? Or should I?

    Shut.His.Frail.a**.Down

    Minutes restriction? Put his a** on a Free Throw restriction in practice. You can't do anything till you make 1000 of them s***s.
