    Sixers have everyone right where they want them....ugh.

    Lakers are guilty of losing games on purpose....ugh.

    C Bags and Pistons suck...

    David Stern legacy alive and well. Thank you for killing the CP3 trade. The law of unintended (er, intended) consequences on full display. We have league powers battling for last instead of Championships. NBA Action! Its mediocre.

    Thank you Hawks! First, you embarrass LeChoke And then the very next night, you let Philly get a W against you. they get my vote for team of the week. Hopefully Philly will have a few more games against teams with nothing to play for.

    New York has a good shot tonight, too.

    2/3 teams won tonight and Knicks gave it a shot. Very good day for us, indeed.

    Tomorrow we got Boston @ Orlando.

    Great night for the tank! Glad to see MIN and PHI get the win. Would have been nice NY and SAC win too but I'll take it.

    Don't wanna be Debbie Downer, but if we hadn't freakin beaten Boston and Utah we'd be tied for 3rd worst record. And if we don't beat Milwuakee we'd be alone in that spot. I know it's over and done with, but damn it irks me.

    No regrets, Knicks and Sixers only win because they have a little margin in the tank race. If we lose all our games they'll still try to be worst !

    We still have.....

    1 game vs the Knicks
    2 games vs. the Wolves
    2 games vs. Philly

    Philly - Plays the Knicks twice and us 2x

    Minny - Plays the Knicks once and us 2x

    We can still make some serious ground for the 2 spot. At this point if we aren't sending out Clarkson / Ellington / D-League guy / Kelly / Sacre and sitting Lin/Hill/Boozer, the FO needs to make the changes for Byron.

    We should not be playing players that are not going to be here next season.

    I am starting to wonder if we aren't considering bringing some of these guys back. It is hard for me to believe the front office hasn't discussed long term plans and made "suggestions" to Byron at this point in the season.

    Parsons is returning to the Mavs tonight; I think we lose this game, but I think it wil be competitive and ultimately decided in the 4th period.

    Also, after this Dalls game, we have Detroit and the Knicks. I think we win both those games. Pistons have been struggling and you know the story with the Knicks this season...

    Love that Black is getting minutes and that Kelly will get to play the 4. Hopefully Sacre plays off the bench over Boozer. At this point JC, Kelly, Black, Sacre should all be getting 30-35 minutes a game, whatever is left over can be divided up amongst Lin, Ellington, Ed, Hill, Wes, Booz, and Young when (and if) he returns.
