I have always said if Weems narrows his focus to spot up shooting (with occasional bursts where he can utilize his other skills which are very inconsistent) and defense, he can be a very successful player in this league... look how much money those two skills earned someone like Trevor Ariza, hell Ariza isn't even THAT good at one of them. I think Weems can be a good player if he comes to the realization that he is a role player in the NBA, and not a scorer.. if he can get his mind right, I think Anthony Parker is a terrific comparison.

Accountability???? I almost forgot what that was..

Can someone explain why Demar only played 25 minutes? Davis is a stud and has been for a while now, get this dude more run!

Damn we got scrums already, maybe this season will be more entertaining than I thought... this is the kind of shit I love.

Shit is all conditional... we'll see if he is saying this a few years from now if they aren't championship contenders anymore.

Chandler is massively overrated.. Dallas made a calculated decision to not invest 15M annually in a guy who plays less than 30 minutes a game. Chandler is nearly 30 with a lot of miles on those legs, and he is a guy who relies heavily on his athleticism to be effective. Who knows how long it is until the Tyson Chandler that played in Charlotte 2 years ago re-appears? The Mavs made the right choice in letting him walk. Dallas is no longer in desperation mode, they can start thinking about what they are going to do a few years from now.. they still have enough talent to be a top seed in the west and make a run, and that is without giving someone much more money than he is worth.

Depending how that Wolves pick turns out, and how Gordon turns out as well as Aminu, it is definitely possible. EDIT: Bottom line, they took the sure thing in Chris Paul... now they are ensured a playoff caliber team the next half decade, and Griffin re-signing is probably a lot closer to certain than if they stood pat.. this move, I feel, was made entirely to appease Blake Griffin.

Kadri called up today... hopefully this is the last time he is called up, and he sticks.

Ah man that is a tough break... dude gets a few extra months off and still gets an injury at the start of the year... dude can't catch a break.

Bargs looks like an out of shape 8th grader from behind in that picture.

Heard it here first.

Don't like the idea of paying defensive specialists close to 10M a year.

Dude is still huge, he probably works out a lot less being in the offices now too.

Love the Rajon Rondo comparisons.

damn should be a fun pre-game show at least.

Pre-season or not, holding a team under 20 in the first quarter is something to get excited about if you are a Toronto fan lol.

If he fouls at a rate of once every 4-6 minutes, no not really.

What a hard game that was to watch. [expletive].

This is an extremely encouraging article. I have said it before, but we have all the pieces in place right now except for the franchise guy, or first option scorer. We just need to hope for a lucky bounce from the ping pong balls this year, and we will be in terrific shape. Demar should be a great 2nd offensive option, Davis is a great glue type of big that I think every team needs, I picture him being a walking double double with close to two blocks, Jonas looks like he will be a legit offensive option with solid defensive skills... I really like how our team looks if we can nab a top prospect in this draft, we have a ton of nice young supporting pieces, just need that alpha player.

First from the Clippers if they are looking like a middle to high playoff seed?

It will change every night. We don't have a clear cut 3rd, hell, we don't even have a clear cut second. If you are asking who I think will finish 3rd in PPG, I am going to go out on a limb and say Ed... I picture double digits from him and I don't picture more than 3 guys averaging double figures..

Amir is listed at 6'9 and I honestly feel like that is generous, he is a PF, not a C. Obviously the best of the group, but I figure it will be Gray or Magloire, probably Gray. Wouldn't be surprised if the Raptors went to a Bargnani-Davis frontcourt early into the season though. Davis can protect the rim better than anyone on our roster I think, and even though he isn't a C, he is our best defensive big and should get a bulk of the minutes.

40-26. 2nd round exit/
