The Regime

I would expect some [expletive]ty defense out of Phoenix but not us. It would be nice to see some effort out there.

Omg don't be silly, you know Odom is destined to be a Laker forever.

Orlando couldn't have played a [expletive]tier quarter lol. 2-20 shooting, and I lost track of all the turnovers. Credit to Miami's defense though they are intercepting a whole bunch of passes. Defensive rotations were excellent. One thing if for sure, once the Heat get momentum they are gonna be a tough team to stop.

Jesus.......Rashard Lewis is trash.

He has got to be the most frustrating player to watch on this team. A zero point effort so far tonight, he's pretty much a hit or miss. Is it just me or has he just not been the same player since he was suspended?

Orlando is pathetic. Is Dwight going to get any help tonight?

Jason Williams>>>Chris Duhon Duhon gave Orlando nothing valuable in the 7 minutes that he played. Just seems out of place. I don't see how Duhon is going to fit into their rotation once Jay comes back from suspension.

Haha I love JVG at times. "LeBron is the best player (*slight pause).....on this team."

Are you surprised lol? Dwight needs to make a conscious effort to keep on attacking Miami's frontcourt. Enough with those midrange jumpers, he's 0-3 with them and 5-5 inside the paint.

Dwight Howard's face up game makes me puke. I don't understand why you would even settle for that shot when Big Z is guarding you.

What a boring [expletive] intro, I was expecting some way better and bigger.

Yeah, why not. Iggy has already proven that he cant be a #1 option for a team on offense. He just doesn't possess the skillset to be a go to guy. On a healthy Bulls team he's possibly the third option, and a good one at that. Win for them. As for the Sixers they aren't a playoff team with or without Iggy imo. With this trade you give Turner an opportunity to run the show, and Deng is a good complimentary piece as long as he can stay healthy. For whatever reason the Sixers value Iggy highly, so it just depends on what direction management wants to go with this team. They'll lose the better player in this trade, but on the other hand Tuner will get valuable playing time as a rookie which will help him mature heading into his second season. Sixers should try and get one more player in the trade if possible though, a Taj Gibson (as Dash said), but if not I would strongly consider going through with it. The way I see it, if you're gonna invest so much into a guy you might as well give him an opportunity to prove himself.

Unfortunately I'll be stuck at work, but the lobby tv will have the Lakers/Warriors game on. I'm not sure what I'm going to do when I get off, I guess I'll just go with the flow.

Welcome aboard, stay active.

Brandon Jennings. Any guy who backs up Kobe and rips on LeBron earns my respect.

I'm curious to see how the Heat plan on stopping Dwight Howard. Pick your poison, either try to defend him one on one with your undersized big men or you double and hope the Magic don't hit their jumpshots. Just see Miami having all sorts of trouble on the defensive end.

I'm down. Dibs on Fins if they aren't already taken.

Oh, my fault I didn't see that.

Agreed with that. The Clippers have struggled with their half court defense tonight, any time the Clips have managed to play a good defensive sequence they've bailed the Blazers out with a foul. Offensively the Clips need to try to get Blake more looks looks in the post, almost all his points have come off putbacks.

Jesus Christ, throw up the lob to Griffin, you know he wants the ball on the break just look at his reaction lol.

The Clips are so inconsistent lol, one minute they go on a scoring surge and the next they are giving up 3-4 consecutive buckets. They know nothing about momentum.

And to think that the Rockets might lose with a +34 advantage at the free throw line, that's ridiculous.

The Clippers might be one of the most exciting teams to watch, especially when their first unit is in. Griffin and Gordon do a great job running the floor and finishing.

Blake Griffin is putting together quite a highlight reel tonight.
