Home Miami Heat Friday March 23 2012

Gotta go Pistons at home against the Heat........

Pistons by 3..........

Would you please stop copying my picks?

Gotta tell ya...my post was first. All you had to do was choose Lebron..........

This is going to be the best game the Pistons play this year. Can't wait.

Heat schmeat.
Pistons by 30.

Pistons by 14

Charlie Villanueva will score a triple double like this.. 30 points - 10 rebounds - 14 turnovers

Nope. Apparently, he hurt his other ankle now.

Iron-Garbage is so tough he makes Harmonica look soft.

WHAT MOST PEOPLE CALL HELL, HE CALLS HOME

I'm only a casual internet fan but I gotta think that my intelligence is being insulted here.
So the Pistons and Charlie are actually asking me to believe that the other ankle was hurt while he was simply running down the court in Practice? I'm happy that Charlie hasn't played this year but I refuse to believe that his ankles were injured through rigorous sleeping and simply trotting down the floor during practice.

Charlie and the Pistons are finished with each other and the team is doing CV a favor by allowing him to save face with some phantom injuries to his ankles. Joe can't trade the guy because he sucks and has a sucky contract.

Charlie will be bought out or amnesty'd when the opportunity presents itself. Joe will blame injuries for the fact that it never worked for Charlie in Detroit. I will continue to roll my eyes.

Joe learned his lesson. He's deliberately keeping CV out of the rotation to prevent him from ruining the tanking. Chaz Garbage is the ultimate tank-buster. Perhaps we should call him "the bazooka".

I believe that CV has less of a chance of being picked up by another team as did AI...........

The Chazooka!

No way that this is fake. Charlie wouldn't let his market value drop based on fake reputation that he is fragile.

The reality is that he is fragile.

This may be impossible to answer, but what is the most money ever payed to an NBA player in a season who played, but failed to score. Charlie is sitting on 3 games, 9 minutes, 0 points, and several million dollars.

Gnarly Charlie and Jake Voskuhl have the same number of points this season!

I wish it was only several million dollars.

I was able to go back 7 seasons. Here's the number of players that played but failed to score. I listed the salaries for players that made >$1M.

2011-12 sesason: 6 players. Chaz ($7.5M)
2010-11 season: 4 players.
2009-10 season: 2 players.
2008-09 season: 1 player. Martell Webster ($3.77M)
2007-08 season: 1 player.
2006-07 season: 6 players. Vitaly Potapenko ($3.67M)
2005-06 season: 6 players. Nene Hilario ($3M). Bryon Russell ($1.1M)
2004-05 season: 4 players. Ibrahim Kutluay ($1.6M)

Interesting stat is the 05/06 Nuggets having two players in Nene and Russell playing and neither scoring a single point. Of course Nene is considered a premier big man now. Perhaps Chaz will start tearing up the league in 2018.

I'll predict the Heat win this by 30.

I thought we were cheering for the Pistons tonight.

Cheering for them is one thing. Facing reality is another. The Pistons don't play tonight, by the way.
