    Canaan is a slower Aaron Brooks.

    if he's so freaking amazing then why did Morey trade for a bag of chips? Yep, you sure know more than him.

    Canaan just had 8 assists, 5 rebounds and 12 points and only 1 turnover.

    As the leading point guard, he just led the worst team to beat East's best team.

    Only on clutchfans will you see a guy with the 5th +/-, 7th shooting %, tied 3rd in points as the player who "led" his team to a win.

    And also in the same post called a team that started Mike Muscala, John Jenkins, and Kent Bazemore "best team in the East." I bet you also thought the lineup of "Beverley, Brewer, Ariza, Jones, DMo" represent the 4th best team in the NBA?

    Atlanta's record is 49-13. That is one game behind Golden State (which has the best record in NBA).

    He went up against Jeff Teague (an All-Star). Teague had 4 assists, 2 rebounds, 17 points, but had 5 turnovers.

    Canaan certainly hold his own against the best the East had to offer.

    2-13 from the field. 13 shots and 8 free throws to get 12 points. And the Hawks had 3 starters sit out. 2 of their starters aren't even part of the regular rotation.

    It's pathetic to leave that kind of stuff out. We all know where to find the boxscores.

    Wow, Canaan is bring 76ers back into the game. Only 6 points down with 8 minutes from the end of the game.

    So far, he had 20 points on only 9 shots.

    What do people think about Philly trading Embiid for Okafor and drafting Russell?

    Okafor
    Noel
    ?
    Russell
    Canaan

    How has he managed 0 assists in 30 minutes?

    He's a point guard right?

    AB showing Canaan and Ish Smith that he's the best ex-Rocket PG castoff (in the last year)

    The two ex-Rocket PGs on Philly combined for 43 points tonight. The one on Chicago got 31 points all by himself.

    We could have Aaron Brooks in our rotation if we didn't throw him around like a ragdoll the past two seasons we had him.

    Considering that's how he plays on defense, probably not a big deal

    Funny joke, but I'd take AB over Prigioni.
