    Chase their shooters off the arc, overplay them. Outside of Melo they are all lousy finishers. Dalembert can handle anyone that tries to lay it in. If they aren't hot from deep they have absolutely nothing.

    Keep winning. Puts us in good position for the deadline.

    If Melo is out, I say we win by double digits.

    I think the consensus is dead on. No way we are not drafting in the 10 - 16 range unless our starters are decimated by injury. The knickelodians have reasonable chance of drafting in the 6-12 range. But to be realistic their pick will probably be 13-19 even being as dysfunctional as they currently are.

    Has there been any word on whether Martin is going to sit again? I'd assume so if it is in fact Plantar Fasciitis, which im pretty sure usually means sitting and resting for awhile.

    Martin was going to play yesterday because he went in the dr's but they gave him some corticosteroids(?).
    I don't think that he's hurting enough to not play but then again, I would let him rest if he wants to because we can win tonight without him.

    It would be nice to have two lotto picks in this draft (which would be easy to trade up if we wanted because of how widely talented this draft is), but I think I'm off the tanking bandwagon. As long we have NY's pick.

    Go Rockets!

    KMart is going because he doesn't want the Dinger to render him expendable.

    We'll see if Bud is capable of putting together good back to back performances this season. He that one good game earlier in the season but he went back to stinkin' the next game.

    Stat on Scola will be scary to watch. I hope SammyD doesnt get into early foul trouble.
