Yes if you take out the fouls it ruins a HUGE element and factor of the game. Big men would be getting fouled when they touched the ball right away, the penalty wouldn't even be a threat anymore with big men being the only ones fouled. Sorry but Van Gundy might be a good coach, but he is a moron IMO.

Nice... played COD for a bit and come back to watch the Raptors getting stops and Bargs getting a steal.

Why do we help everytime someone, regardless of who they are, get the ball 8 feet from the basket, would rather them get the 2 then a wide open 3. Co-sign that notion on Wright, also wish Jack would stop shooting and start slashing. Bosh gets his eyes gouged out no call, and Miller gets that. Bosh got mugged for a no call, the refs are so suspect sometimes damnit.

Just run pick and roll all day. Shaq is mad that D12 is the new best big man in the NBA, he should be congratulating him not dissing him. I hate Shaq, I Hope D12 drops 30-15 and Shaq only plays like 20 minutes in foul trouble.

Camping in this game is driving me [expletive]ing insane.

Over/Under 230 combined? Anyone else concerned Bargnani is falling back into his jump shots only mode again? EDIT- Lol then he does the drive

Gay would never have developed this quickly, playing on a good team isn't a good thing for a rookie development IMO. In Memphis he has been allowed to chuck and get his points, where in Memphis he would have been stuck behind a bevy of wings as a rookie/sophomore. They probably could have gotten better value than a role player for Gay though.

Hedo no doubt. Gives us a much more creative player than Jose. And also as he gets older it won't be as much a concern as Marion who relies 10x more on his athleticism than Hedo. I am taking Hedo and it isn't even close, I like how Jose isn't in complete control anymore and Hedo does some creating instead of watching Jose run the pick and roll each play. Plus eventually my hope is that Hedo will be able to get Jose involved as a spot up shooter more often, Marion obviously can't play point forward. I am probably more confident in Jose to nail a jumper than anyone on this team, besides maybe Bargs but he is streaky as hell. I guess overall I like what Hedo brings to the table a lot more than Marion.

We should be running a couple more plays for him or getting him some touches. With him out there at times it feels like we only have 4 guys on the floor because he just gives the ball to Jose once he gets it. But Bargs, Bosh and Hedo all come first. I prefer Demar staying within himself rather than trying to create. If he gets consistent with his spot up jumper he will become more involved.

Ya that is why Kobe has a chance to be right there as one of the best ever to do it, if he already isn't lol. He will be effective till the day he retires because he has one of the best mid range games ever if not the best. And now he has this supposed post game, I haven't watched a Lakers game yet, so he is just adding new things to his arsenal that don't require outstanding athleticism. He is just working to become a completely rounded player. His defense will obviously get worse but he is smart enough to still be a competent defender, and he might not be dropping 50's anymore when he is 36 or 37 but he will still be a 20+ point guy and still able to positively contribute to the team he is on. That is why you hope one day Bynum can develop into a consistent 20+ point type of guy because Kobe won't be able to carry this team forever. He will be effective until he retires, would not be surprised if he played past 40, whether it be in the NBA or in Europe for huge money.

Anderson is out? He would have been huge for you guys tonight. The Cavs big men are too stupid or too big to come out and guard the perimeter. Anderson would have a game like he did against Toronto.

Has Boykins ever averaged 20 a game?

Tank and get John Wall. This team needs an A1 star to get them excited, kinda like AI.

You can't expect to have a great defense when you are taking as many shots as we do, at least in terms of OPPG. But at the same time our defense has been absolutely pathetic, we are only in games because while we can't get any stops we are making it hard for other teams to get stops. We have a ton of offensive weapons, if our defense can just be average without affecting our offense too much then we should be ok. But frankly I don't see us getting out of the bottom 5 in terms of defense unless we were to do a complete 180.

They don't have any draws to bring people to the games. Brand is washed up, plus they have other sports to be excited about.

Game is definitely not worth all the hype. Solid game but is no better than the first Modern Warfare IMO.

Still not taking this team lightly, I am expecting their shooters to have a hay day as most usually do against us. Backup PG's seem to have their way with Jose more than stars.

I just googled a workout plan, and this looks really solid to me. I am taking a workout class at school but I am mostly just doing bicep and tricep workouts daily. I definitely suggest getting a gym membership because using all the different machines is definitely better and more effective IMO then just using dumbbells. Also there are people there that can give you advice and suggestions. Of course you could adjust so that you are doing biceps or whatever you wanted on this thing more often, like for me I try and do Bi's and Tri's each day. http://www.shapefit.com/workout-questions-dumbbell-workouts.html Just my .02 Also just try googling 'freeweight workout plans' or 'dumbbell workout plans' and you will probably get some more in depth things to work on too. Mostly for me though just bicep curls and tricep extensions (overhead for freeweights) is what I would do if you are looking to do strictly biceps and triceps. Make sure you are increasing or else you won't improve obviously lol, also decide if you want muscle or endurance. If you want to bulk up you do less reps of more weight, if you want to get tone or endurance do more reps of less weight.

Turkoglu should have the ball at the start, middle and end of every game. He can do so much more with it than Jose plus he isn't afraid to push the ball. Jose is solid but Hedo can turn nothing into something, Jose just does what he does and rarely does anything outside his comfort zone. He pulls the ball out when he is on the fastbreak it is so frustrating.

Are you going to a gym? Or looking to do this at home?

Too many Lakers fans.

Why are your guys favourite players so average? lol, also lol at Osgood Warren. G - Patrick Roy (retired) D - Al Mcinnis (sp) D - Ray Bourque LW - Milan Hejduk C - Joe Sakic/Doug Gilmour RW - Corey Perry Most my favourite players are old or retired, don't really like hockey as it is now, miss the early 2000's.

Whatever, wish we could land a set up man for Blake and Kessel. Jonas has been playing good and has all our wins I think, don't want to see him get yanked already. My friend told me there was a Toskala+pick for Frolov type deal on the table I wish that could have gotten done if true lol.

This is what I am doing lol. This [expletive] is the most insane thing I've seen for a video game, I wasn't into video games during Halo so I can't compare them but I know that was pretty crazy too. Our EB Games is having a launch party I am gonna get there at 11 so I can get my copy by 12 w/my friends and play tonight. Hopefully I like the game lol.

Sheed and Dirk are post threats? I see a lot of average post players on there on championship teams, the game is changing, a post threat is no longer necessary to compete IMO, it is more important that your big men can defend the post to me than if they can score in the post. I agree you need good big men, especially on the defensive end but I don't think your big men need to be scoring the ball to be successful, which I am not even sure you are saying that but I am just saying that lol. No team is a sure lock for the finals, the Lakers could very well get knocked out of the playoffs too, it almost happened last year. I am saying a Wade and LeBron led team with a competent supporting cast SHOULD be the favourites for the finals. Nothing is ever definite, as Dirk.
