Turn it up .. Turn It Up.. Mash it up. We gonna party like, party like it’s the end of the world. We gonna party like, like it’s 2012. You know that it doesn’t matter as long as we got each other.

I'll always love you for all that you are. You have made my life complete, you're my lucky star. You are the one that I've been searching for. You are my everything, tell me who could ask for more. And I'll always love you, Honey, this will never end. I need you by my side, baby, you're my lover, my friend.

I'm really excited about going tonight, because for the first time in who knows how many years, we are going to be playing for the season sweep of the Lakers. If we come out strong on defense, and play our offense and not get stagnant, and Hibbert comes up big for us, I feel good about our chances. -
http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70592/20101215/carl_landry_open_to_houston_return/ I never have liked seeing players talk about where they are going to play next during the season when they're with a different team. Even though I don't like that, this makes a lot of sense for Landry. When he was with Houston, he was one of the better sixth men around the league, and he just hasn't worked out since leaving there. It would make a lot of sense for him to return to Houston. What would you guys think of him coming back to the Rockets? Thoughts?

http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70587/20101214/knicks_pursuing_telfair/ He'd fit the system in New York almost perfectly I think. He's been having trouble fitting in with systems around the league throughout his career, but found a nice spot last year with Cleveland. If the Knicks are able to acquire him, he'd fit right in with their run-and-gun type of offense, and he'd have the freedom to be a playmaker which is what he likes to do. Makes a lot of sense to me. Thoughts?

It's looking like he's starting to get his legs back under him on his shots, and that's the reason they aren't falling short. With his knee issues in the past, he's been coming up short on his jump shots, but now he seems to be getting the lift he needs. Not exactly sure what's gotten into him, but if he keeps playing like this, he'll force the Pistons to play him more. Very cool to see him playing well.

Denver looking to trade Smith to Chicago
The Lone Granger replied to Real Deal's topic in Denver Nuggets Team Forum
The Bulls already have a high-powered offense, but adding Smith would just be impressive. What kind of trade would the Bulls have to send back to Denver to acquire Smith? -
I love the move for New Jersey and Houston. This gives the Rockets another athletic player to run the break, and the Nets receive a couple first rounders and a good perimeter shooter. For the Lakers I just really can't say I understand what they're thinking. Joe Smith is not going to fix anything, but who knows. Good all-around trade though. Surprised to see Williams dealt just as it looked like he was getting back in the good graces of Avery Johnson.

Collison Confused By O'Brien's Rotation
The Lone Granger posted a topic in Indiana Pacers Team Forum
http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70549/20101213/collison_confused_by_obriens_rotation/ I'm not going to lie, I've been very disappointed with the lack of playing time for Collison. He was brought into Indiana to be that point guard we've been looking for, and O'Brien isn't playing him when we need him the most! Very disappointing the way he thinks Ford is better in clutch situations. Play your best player, and give your team the best chance to win! Thoughts? -
He was just like, woah, did I just do that? Did you see that? Lol, great dunk!

Suns, Pacers Discussing Minor Deal
The Lone Granger replied to Jammin's topic in Phoenix Suns Team Forum
http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70544/20101212/no_truth_to_clark_for_jones_rumors/ Well that's too bad, I would've been happy with this trade. -
What would it take? If we can up and runaway. We can throw our problems away, and get out of town. And how do you feel? I hope you know that I'm for real. I ain't playing games baby, I'm serious now.
-
i'm serious too. let's do it TJ, let's run away together.

What do you guys think about Ben Hansbrough (Tyler Hansbrough's younger brother). He's been putting up some huge numbers for the Irish this season, especially from behind the three point line. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/player/gamelog?playerId=32034 http://www4.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Ben+Hansbrough+DX5gJgJILXvm.jpg I've been thinking about if he will be able to make the NBA or not, and I'm honestly not sure. He runs the point fairly well, and he's an excellent shooter. He plays hard on defense, but he's not exceptionally quick. I want to get your guys thoughts on B-Hans?
-
Looking forward to this game. Coming off a nice win against Charlotte, we have confidence, and we also have our point guard back that wasn't available last meeting. If we play harder, and don't turn the ball over, then I think we'll win this game. Atlanta is without Johnson, so that will help us a lot as well. Should be a great game like Cobb said.
-
Any chance you can put Wade in a Pacers jersey?
-
I really don't think that he can play until he's 38, but at least he's set a goal for himself. Assuming he's willing to be a backup, then I guess there's a shot, but he's already starting to lose his game fast, I just don't know how much longer he can play at the NBA level. Thoughts?

http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70517/20101211/karl_gets_1000th_win_as_nuggets_top_raptors/ Big milestone, great job and congratulations for George Karl. Couldn't have happened at a better time to a nicer guy. Great to see him get this win. Thoughts?

Happy Birthday Roy Hibbert!
The Lone Granger replied to Warren2ThaG's topic in Indiana Pacers Team Forum
Having a great room for sure! Happy Birthday big Roy! -
http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70523/20101211/milicic_i_didnt_work_hard_with_pistons/ That's something that I would have kept quiet. It was already obvious that he wasn't working hard with the Pistons, but still, don't go making it extra public. Tough news for Pistons fans though, very sad that he wasn't working hard and that franchise got completely screwed over because of him. Thoughts?

http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/70515/20101211/knicks_could_get_pick_for_randolph_to_use_in_trade_for_melo/ Randolph really isn't fitting well in New York, so why not see if you can move him for that pick? Houston makes sense to me, because he'd fit in well with the system there, and he'd be asked to score the ball quite a bit as well. You get the pick to acquire Melo so why not? Makes perfect sense to me, and it's being very smart. I'll add some more thoughts later. Thoughts?

The Miami Heat have shed that disappointing start to the season and have now won 7 straight games. The main part of this to me isn't the fact that they are on a winning streak, but how they are winning these games. They're playing great team basketball, and they look like they are listening to the coach, and also they have turned to an up-tempo game. I don't think they can play in the half court very effectively, and it's about time they experimented with the run and gun game and it's working. They're winning these games very handily, and it should be very interesting to see how they keep playing this year. Thoughts?
-
And another good win against the Bobcats. I've been very impressed with how we bounce back from tough losses this season. We came out knowing we let one slip away in Milwaukee, and we went out and dominated tonight. There was no doubt that the Pacers would win, even when the Bobcats made runs. The Pacers dominated this one, and it's a huge win for us! Let's keep up the winning ways tonight against the Hawks in another big game.

Suns, Pacers Discussing Minor Deal
The Lone Granger replied to Jammin's topic in Phoenix Suns Team Forum
I'd love to have Solomon Jones stay on the roster, but if we can get a guy like Earl Clark for him, then sorry Solo, but you have to go. Clark can score the ball very nicely from the power forward position, he just hasn't gotten enough of a chance with the Suns. If they were to just give him a shot, I think he'd produce. This is a typical Larry Bird move to get a guy who is under-performing and give him a chance (similar to McRoberts). Should be interesting to see if we get this deal done. -
Looking forward to what this kid has in store for us in the future. He's got all the skills necessary to play some great professional basketball, so cant' wait to see what he brings.
