    Not 100% truth.

    Go Big and Jump Shooting is the 2 things NBA teams working on beating the Heats.

    The Miami's D can destroy NBA teams who rely on their PG.
    It works against the Bulls, Nets and Celtics.
    Harden has PG skill. When OKC played him in the Playoffs finals, he got beaten.

    Lin holds the ball a lot and doesn't like make many jump shots, so he is more vulnerable to the Heats.
    But if he adjusts, makes more mid ranged and 3, he will get better.

    I love Jalen. Especially when he said that anyone suggesting Marc Gasol is a better center than Dwight Howard just doesn't like Dwight Howard. He also said that we should be disappointed if we don't make the WCF, which is higher than most media people say we will go.

    I'd rather have Asik in attack mode 12 minutes a game backing up Dwight. Add on the fact that I think that they will play great together, and it's a no brainer. Keep Asik.

    I think we should be the one getting a pick in that trade, maybe top 10 protected for 2 years?

    Maybe Asik for Batum... Maybe... Move Parsons to stretch 4.

    Jalen went on to predict that KD, at the expiration of his current deal, will walk away from OKC and join Dwight and Harden in Houston. He also thinks that Westbrook will bolt and join forces with Love in Lakerland, essentially leaving the Thunder empty-handed.

    Sure, it's just a theory, but he also called the Harden deal a week before it went down. KD has never been shy about expressing his love for all things Texas, and he already has a massive following around these parts. KD-Harden-Dwight would be unstoppable.

    Dammit, looks like I'm late to the party. Just saw Bima's thread.

    He should be good but he is neither an allstar nor a PF.

    what we need now.

    How is he not a PF? He has played like 80% of his time at the 4...

    I like the idea of adding Green to this team but him straight up for Asik is not enough return for a top 5-10 center in the NBA

    Bill didnt mention Green to say that he could be the missing piece for the Rockets.

    He is actually implying hat Green would not work out for the Rockets and that Rocket fans would be just as frustrated as the Celtics fans have been with him.

    Jeff Green will give you few good games here and there but will then dissapear for a large chunk of 'em.
