    I like our bench better than Orlando's.

    Brooks won out because he's a far better shooter than Lowry. Korver could only take it to the rack like Budinger in his dreams. I'm not crazy about this column at all.

    The Celtics have the deepest bench in my opinion.

    I agree with flamingdts. The Celtic bench is the strongest in the NBA. Ours is second or third, but it has the greatest longer term upside.

    I was watching ESPN's NBA summary last night w Bucher, Stein and company and they never mentioned the Rockets through the whole 1 1/2 hour show.

    I don't think it will take long for that to change at all. The Rockets are primed for making a run early on.

    Bleacher Report may as well be threads started in the GARM.
