Howard would probably put it on as well! Great idea and different!

Dwight had 24 points and 21 rebounds... Just that?? What a slacker! He played with no energy! lol i didn't say it, that's out of stan's mouth, he said dwight had great energy the first quarter, but then his energy tapered off. remember i said he played with less energy, not bad, i tried to make that difference apparent the first time, but i guess i'll write it a third time in another post if you want. LOL. I was just messing with you. You stated it was Stan who said that. I guess he was tired b/c they played back to back games

IMO Lee is overrated and his numbers are good becuase of their system. He a good player, but his number lie. He gets a lot of rebouns b/c he's the only one that can rebound on that team. He can barely block a shot too!

He pushed Howard after a foul and earlier in the game Howard was doing his thing with the ball after a free throw and Lee just took the ball away from his hands. Did any one else see that? I posted this at the game thread last night.

Both have young up and coming superstars at the key positions, both have aging 'star' players surrounding said superstar, both got 3 players into the all-star game, and had one player that might have also deserved consideration, both are high in payroll in struggling markets, both wear pinstripes... Only, we are the Hornets of last year. the hornets got 3 players in the all star game? their market is struggling much more than ours...it's sad to say, but they might not be able to survive, much less compete, in nawlins. My mistake, I thought Chandler went as well last year. But it was just Paul and West. Still, the point stands. As in, they looked so promising, nothing changed (except adding Posey, which should've made them better) and yet they are nowhere near as good this year. they've had pretty significant injuries to both west and chandler have missed stretches this year...i think paul missed a few as well. Add to that the fact that they lost some of their bench players from last year. J. Pargo was one of them.

You can't sell out arenas in 15 cities when games happen so frequently. Just isn't happening, not enough demand for the product. Edit: I said 15 because on any given night, that is how many cities have a game going on. Just to clarify. That makes little sense. So because Boston is playing at the same time, fans in Utah are less likely to go to a game? Am I misreading the point? If anything, the real problem lies in the long schedule, not the large number of teams. Yeah, I was afraid I didn't word that properly. What I meant was there isn't enough demand around the country in cities like Milwaukee and Memphis to see the watered down talent. The more teams there are, the more talent is spread around. And the NBA, moreso than any other sport, is based on talent and star power. What average citizen is going to go to a Bobcats - Sacramento game on a Tuesday night? Now, when Lebron comes to town, that person has some incentive. Not sure if that makes sense the way I worded it. Funny you mentioned that. I was telling my friend this past Saturday that the league could be more interesting if they get rid of about 6 teams like (Bobcats, Clippers, Rapotors, Thunder, Grizzlies etc) These teams are usually bad and I'm pretty sure their attendance isn't that good. Those teams have decent players that could make other teams better and the league would be more competetive. Too bad Stern can just get take those team out of the NBA.

Alston is playing good and his court vision seems to be really good. My championship faith came back when we traded for him, but the way Nelson was playing this season there wasn't a lot of PG's that I'd trade him for. Alston wasn't one of them.

This thread should have been called "The Alston bandwagon"

He said that "Redick has to improve his defense because he isn't gettin enough minutes, but his doing a great job."

Some interesting observations that I agree: http://orlandomagiczone.com/ev...?r=34710891#34710891 That was a great observation. Now that I think back I see what you are saying. I have seen that numerous times.

If you are going to correct someone's grammas make sure yours is correct. I do remember that game against the Suns. Although Hedo is a bad defender he didn't get any help on that screen. When AJ came to our team I heard he was a good defender, but I have seen anything good at the defensive end from him. Oh really?..any sense of humour?gramma...+s.. LOL. Typo

Hedo does not defend the opponent's best scorer and that is the reason why the people he guards don't score 50+ every game. Hedo is a SF and so is LBJ. You would rarely see Hedo trying to keep up with LBJ. WOW...I used Hedo trying to keep up with LBJ in the same sentence. so if he really sucks, other teams SFs still can score a lot on him because he is bad.. what u said doesnt make sense at all. pierce is SF and great scorer i haver seen he score over 30 on us either. and yes hedo defend him most part.. mostly gurds score big on us if you notice. hedo is NOT DEFENSIVE player and you know that long time. only think i dont like is when he drives he doesnt finish strong,waiting for foul. but he is the only one at least drive to line unless someone who does 200 pump fakes before decide what to do... he is great versatile player and can take over a game by himself. thats because he had bad season that makes you guys talk and i dont blame you.. actually last month his shooting and 3s were better untill jameer got injured.. bottom line he is an offensive player and not much to say about his defense.. he can shoot,drive,pass,go to line... watch him after alston arrive... Dude take Boston aside and tell me if he has to guard LBJ, Vince, T-Mac, C. Butler, Granger, J Rich, Melo, Durant etc. He has no choice with Pierce because he can't guard Ray Ray or KG. Also Boston's players don't usually score 30+ games b/c of their style it's kinda like the Pistons a few years ago. You said I don't make sense and I apologize I can't make a come back, but I couldn't understand what you tried to say. I'm not expecting Hedo to be a good defender, but that does not mean I can't talk about it! guarding work both ways.. do u think granger,j,rich,mc grady vince can guard hedo? yeah i dont think so, most of them too small to for guard hedo. if hedo hot nobody can guard him if one those guys hot same counts for them too. as you say your last sentence if u dont accept him to be great defender so whats the point arguing.. and no im not just hedo fan, im also howard,meer,lewis and others in this team fan too.. trade dead line ended so u stuck with hedo.. like it or not.. and dont jump your assssss off if he beats the buzzer again... This is a battle you are alwasys going to lose. Howard shots 58% from the FT line and will propably be that way for his entire career. Does that mean we can't talk s*** about it? People still talk about Shaq and his free throws. There are bad defenders and there are lazy defenders. There are bad defenders that at least make an effort to stay on top of the players his guarding and Hedo is not only a bad defender, but he's a lazy one as well. Don't tell me you don't get upset when he gives up easy points as well as and 1's...when you know he su*** as a defender.

You're right bro. My bad! I shouldn't have said that.

Sorry if you don't like it, I'd like to see you come up with better then... Don't take it personal dude. I did not have an opportunity to see those game threads. I did see the one from last night against the Bobcats and it was really good.
