    Almost all of it. The players aren't getting the 'shooter' role' anymore. The ball just bounces off the rim.

    Shane is always a player who contributes more than stats. :)

    I've seen that from Battier. He doesn't always look comfortable with the ball from way out. Gotta get it to him on a catch-and-shoot or when he's moving in close the bucket. He's not gonna put the ball on the floor much from 17 feet out and make something happen.

    Anyone watching tvants or the shanghai channel tired of that stupid Doublemint commercial? How can they make a chewing gum commercial so dramatic? It's making me sick. Give me some Trident.

    Why wouldn't the Nug just send Smith to the knicks directly?

    The score was 37-32 at halftime, neither team shot well.

    Was it a legit foul or did the refs make a BS call? I'm trying to get a sense of how the refs will treat Yao this year.
