    As good as Lopez has been playing this season, I fully expect Drummond to absolutely dominate this matchup based on his streak of 32 consecutive double-doubles.

    Also, the team seems to be playing much better since all of those deals at the trade deadline.
    Prince to Washington for Kevin Seraphin and the Wizz's first rounder looks like a no-brainer at this point!
    ...and how did Joe manage to convince Indiana to do that Paul George for Austin Daye deal???
    CV for Millsap??? - Joe is a freaking Jedi!!!

    When I was a kid, we lived for a while just outside of Philadelphia. I was 10 years old, and the Dr. was a superstar, and my favorite player. I carried around Chapstick because he endorsed it. Begged my parents for his shoes, and drank Dr. Pepper, just like Dr. J.

    ONE of the first books i ever read without being told to was DR J's biopic. ......the fact that I never even saw him PLAY up to then made the book even better!

    Nothing much new in this one. Bynum played a lot, socred a lot. In the past two games, he has scored over 40, but is just plus 4 in the two games in total as his defense is that bad. Meanwhile, other guys who should be getting the ball do not.

    In all, for the season, coach will not use units that work. Tonight, as usual, he put out a unit to start the game that can't function, followed by subs that just make us worse and worse. Good to see both English and Middleton get some burn in this one. It is a tragedy however that neither got any significant playing time this season.

    Basically, if Gores keeps Frank, its a signal he wants to waste another year chasing draft picks. Which is crazy to do since Dumars has no track record of ever making a draft pick amount to any wins for us.

    The trading deadline. We make a cap move. We lose a couple of decent players, get zilch toward building the team. Pretty much typical Dumars ever since we won in 2004. Cap move after cap move. Now Gores is here, and another major cap move with no chance of helping the team from it. So far, Gores talks about wanting to win, but has not done a thing towards it.
