Real Deal

They beat Orlando last night, probably tired. Miami is pissed because they have lost two straight home games, and I doubt Wade plays that bad again. No major point guard advantage, even though Jack and Calderon are both better PGs than Arroyo and Chalmers. Bargnani isn't a traditional back-to-the-basket post scoring threat. The Heat should win by 20+ tonight. Hope I'm wrong.

Isn't this similar to what Blair is going through? I'm pretty sure there was talk that Blair doesn't have any knees (ha), and it was amazing that he was even able to get off the ground high enough to grab boards with the weight he has.

They wouldn't be interested because they wouldn't trade their big pieces for him. It's basically the same reason why the Heat wouldn't call. Sacramento would brush off any trade that doesn't involve Pierce, Allen, Garnett, or Rondo, and the Celtics aren't desperate enough to get that done. They are the best team in the East. I'm sure the Hawks would consider it, and maybe even the Thunder. Both teams can afford to get bigger up front. Denver would probably consider trading Melo for him. With that said, I don't think the Kings are actually considering a trade. As mentioned already by a few others in here, there's no reason to trade him just yet...and they won't get what they want from many teams right now, especially top-tier teams.

Uh oh!

Probably not the Heat. They don't have anything to offer. They've spent all of their draft picks (and don't have the cap room to begin with), and they would have to give the Kings four players at the minimum salaries they are signed to, or deal Mike Miller...but Sacramento wouldn't hand over Cousins for that crap. I don't see Boston being that interested. Orlando? They definitely need him, although Brandon Bass is showing signs of better play. The Magic would immediately stick Cousins at the four, and they would finally have a legitimate power forward that can start for them.

One definitely isn't the Lakers, that's for sure. He was running his big mouth all game long against us, and even before that, he took a shot at Drew. I really wouldn't want him here. I'd rather have Drew back for the next meeting, just to eat this kid alive.

Didn't watch the entire game, but he dropped four buckets off of offensive boards. Looks like two of them were tip-ins, two were pulled down and put back up. So, eight points. He was fouled a few times and put on the line after an o-board, too.

Hey, if the play doesn't work the first time, run it 20 more times for the hell of it!

...and Gordon chokes.

Welcome to the best.

Blake Griffin doing everything in his power to win, and Gordon is choking. I don't see how EG can't get his game going with someone like Blake down low.

Rudy with the choke.

Durant and Westbrook with the last 17 points for the Thunder. Big-time play by Westbrook, especially...dude is doing everything on the floor, and has a career high in points.

Kobe-esque.

Durant and Westbrook killing it. Someone else has to step up offensively, and this entire team has to play better back on the defensive end.

He should be. They'll lose him anyway.

LOL. I really haven't seen Wade play that bad in a long time. It's not like I watch every Heat game, every year, but I don't remember the last time I watched Wade and saw him completely ineffective on the offensive end.

Then they should've selected Durant with the first pick in the draft. :o

My brother said they had them at Hibbett's about two months ago, and now all they have are the white-on-white.

It's Durant and Russ time!

Nash has 26, dude isn't playing around this game.
