ok here it is PG: MCW. LOL Can't shoot bad ballhandler for pg plays great defence. He's not the playmaker anymore but acts like a ballhandling wing that cuts to the basket. SG: Middleton. He is the primary playmaker. Elite shooter great defender likes the turnaround jumpers and posting up is the ballhandler in the pnr now in the last one month. He's on a roll and has been scoring 20 points for the last week or so. SF: GA can't shoot is hesitant is the secondary playmaker who cuts to the basket. Lately he's the one who guards the pfs because of rim defence. Beast in defence and transition. PF :JP can't shoot threes but has lately found his legs and confidence and has attempted good midrange jumpers likes to dunk. Beast in transition C: Monroe has become a little better in positional defence lately has good post up game can shoot some midrange jumpers if left alone, great passer quite often the offence goes through him through the high post. Bench: Henson backup c who is an elite shotblocker .When defence is needed he's in for Monroe. Bayless is a good 3point shooter and backup pg. Vaugh: rookie who has been getting around 10 minutes a game as a backup sg. Will end up being a good shooter one day but right now incosistent. JOB: The worse player in the nba last year now he has reached third pf status. Hustling player who has midrange shot. The Bucks are a team who has great ball movement all the players pass well and cut to the basket lately has improved their defence and likes to run in transition. Shoot very few threes but at a good rate. Don't defend the three very well. They switch often in defence and double team and try to take advantage of matchups to post up almost everyone except MCW.(he has been posting up only midgets). They make almost all their points in the paint (1st in the league). I wouldn't be surprised as ridiculous as it sounds if Harden is guarded by Parker. He will be doubleteamed for sure though quite often. The key for the Rockets should be limiting Middleton trying to exploit his handles (which are not great) and trying to move him off the 3point line. And pack the paint. And be careful of backcuts. The Bucks dont' defend the three well so if the Rockets shoot ok the lead can balloon very fast. I don't trust either team AT ALL so I don't know who will win. I think the Rockets will. .... I will be cheering against Houston tonight so I will disappear from this thread. Hopefully it will be a great game.

Glad the Smithsonian is back. He's not the finality. Watch for the fire sale. Barack---what's good? Hillary? Cold feet? Meek Mill's home? Sell it. And, I love what Cyber brings. But, from what i've heard from a few good guys. We're giving Ty this season to work it out. Love ya'll.
thats good to hear seems to me something still maybe possible with Chicago -- my huge hope would be Thibs of course - but with Noah's injury i cant see how chicago could give up anyone else right now Hillary - NY? something with NY may still happen but doesnt look possible considering they are perfoming above expecatations. edit: forgot about brooklyn now - could still be something with the Nets since there was talks about Jack before? Meek Mill -- Markieff Morris still? Sell it? maybe he is still on the move out? the fire sale part is still intriguing - what so everyone is available on this roster I am guessing outside of Harden, Lawson (since it seems as Cod said they will give him the season) and Smith since he just joined the team?
can anyone post an update whether smith will play tonight? didn't he play in memphis last year the day we got him?

with smoove taking us even deeper into lux tax, no doubt les/morey must already have plans in place to unload contracts galore now
When Codman mentioned Meek Mill, he meant Philly, not PHX; Markieff is still playing for PHX (at the moment).
It's been 4 hrs since the news broke. It takes 4 hours to fly from NY to Houston. The game is also in 4 hours. I say....HE PLAYS!
damn. When he said firesale he meant we do the firesale? I thought/hoped he meant Charlotte and the firesale that it's coming over there.
If Embiid didnt play the role of Greg Oden...Noel wouldve most likely been shipped out. Noel is their team anchor and really doubt that he gets moved now.
Noel will get moved I think by the summer. He doesn't fit at all with Okafor he can't play pf and ever since Okafor is in the team his perfomance has dipped. He became a little bit better with Smith but now he's back to sucking. This is asset deteroriation and will only continue to get worse that's why Hinkie must make a decision soon. The pieces don't fit together.
