    They've had all of last season to improve their defense. I'm thinking I should see improvement there, but I've yet to see any. The other issues probably point to coaching but we'll see.

    Oh, maybe they were playing lin with the starters in practice because of this..

    Stop trying to be rational and make sense... We are angry and we want blood.

    I smell a trade. Typical Le$ and Murray playing the PR game here. Obviously Heren is being shipped out for Patty Mills since he averages more movement of the court per game than Haren.

    It is simply strategic so that Kevin Martin doesn't go off.

    That sounds so weird to me and all wrong... starting someone because of a negative?

    I am very unhappy to hear of this. Asik will probably get traded in the future. I would like to see a SF/SG who could be an upgrade from Garcia and Brewer.

    It's weird but Yao said the same thing. Beverley is starting because he can't lead the offense of the bench.

    Commonsense has prevailed. You cant play these crazy games with the health of you're franchise player. His foot has some major swelling. He needs rest. We should win easily even without James. Timberwolves play no defense so we should score atleast 130 tonight.

    McHale is coaching. Easy wins become contested slug-fights.
