Lakers home fans were booing the team when they got down by 20 at the end of 3rd and at the start of 4th before the team kind of made a run to cut to down to 14. Interesting.

Mavericks are lucky to have Tyson healthy and fully capable to fix some mistakes. If they didn't, that defense would be historically bad. Nelson, Barea, Harris, Ellis, Parsons, Dirk - all very negative defensive players Wright is average only because of his length. I enjoy it when teams with good offenses just pick apart their horrid defense. Especially if those teams also have a good defense and watch the Mavericks fall apart. Teams like the Spurs, Rockets, Grizzles, Warriors and to a lesser extent Portland and Suns.
Inside info: Big Baby was whining to the point of almost crying before the lockout a few years ago and KG cussed him out.

How long do the Knicks and Pistons stick with Phillip and SVG respectively at the rate those two teams are going? Neither one should be THIS bad, right?
i think phil knew his team was going to be worse, but it was about getting some pieces for the triangle and freeing up salary (the mavs have to pay felton $4m next year too...) and maybe adding a nice draft pick to the basket. The Pistons i have no idea, were they meant to be going for the playoffs or are they tanking?
