    Phoenix pushing hard to nab a top 10 pick in a shallow draft? SMART ;)

    We still have 4 games left with them, and Gortat may be out for the season.

    For a minute there I thought it said "Goran", who is still a bigger threat than Gortat because of our inept perimeter D.

    All that means is that I get to watch the Rockets pummel the Suns in 2 days!

    Gortat is unmotivated this year anyway.

    I believe McHale will adjust by not playing Asik and playing more small-ball (to match up with Luis Scola at center). We'll get to see McHale's 2011-12 small ball anchor vs his 2012-13 small ball line-up. Should be fun. NOT.

    and Lin will be benched for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter. Then Cole Aldrich will magically appear in our roster and be forced to play center for the whole second half.

    Remember when we lost to the Timberwolves D-League team?

    Oh well, it's still good news for us.

    McHale will bench Lin and play Brooks (no defense) to ensure Dragic gets better stats, to stick it up to Morey.

    He'll say, "I felt we needed Brooks' 3pt shooting."
