    It would be absolutely hilarious if he didn't.
    A huge slap in the face after this offseason where they thought they could do whatever they wanted.

    Wouldn't matter though. They'd get 7 of the next 9 first draft picks though.

    I would take Sacre and Davis off their bench in a heart beat... Davis goes hard on the boards and Sacre is a 7 foot body that we don't have...

    Not at all, but his decision will be based on how things are at the end of the season. What's happening now is irrelevant unless the bugs never get worked out.

    have you seen how Sacre plays? He's like a 12 years old boy in a 7ft tall body. Can't dribble, can't shoot, can't defend. He's like a poor man's David Andersen.

    Ed Davis is good tho

    The Lakers got blown out today, but I think they may not be as bad as their record indicates.

    Those guys have played the toughest schedule in the entire league by most objective measures. They are also undefeated (3-0) against below average or ****ty teams.

    I think it's safe the say, the Mavs are way better than us with 2 starters out.

    Haven't been following the Mavs.
    But what's with them blowing out every team they played lately?

    Hot shooting. They shot like 70% from 3 against the Lakers tonight.

    Not to take anything away from them, they're playing great and doing what they're supposed to do but they're playing cupcakes.* They did beat a decent Washington team (by 3).

    That Sacramento game did wonders for them. Down 24 early, had 4 points with 3 minutes remaining in the first Q, came back to win and they haven't lost since.

    And with all these blowouts, they get to rest their guys. Great news for a guy like Dirk.
    Dirk is averaging 19 points in just 27 minutes of play; last 5 games: 17 points in just 23 minutes

    *Again, not to take away from anything they're doing. They're playing great. Comparing Houston & Dallas, Dallas is blowing out teams Houston is struggling to get by or losing to.

    Why can't our bench score some points? Our bench can't even score in a blowout.

    The Bulls aren't this bad, but when they too are missing two starters and another key player in Hinrich then it becomes very hard to win games and takes a hit to your depth.

    Reminds me of another team out west...

    To be damn honest, Dallas might be the dark horse to win it in thine West since OKC is out of the picture. They will give the Spurs a run for their money. Dallas took the Spurs to 7 games in the playoffs and now this Dallas team is much stronger better with depth! Scary ass team I tell you. Gosh I hate Dallas.

    LOL. Run for their money? They lost to the Spurs already, if you don't remember. And the Spurs didn't even have Kawhi and Splitter playing.

    Good to see New Orleans lose big... to DENVER. Didn't expect that at all.
