10! The reason I am a Magic fan and would have had a Hall of Fame career if it were not for injuries.

You have any description on the guy, I haven't been looking too much into the draft this year so I don't know a lot about the players.

I just posted that in the wrong thread..

I'm not a huge Jameer fan, but he IS the best PG on out team. Everybody who is saying AJ should play because he was putting up better numbers...well, he was putting up better numbers, but thats not what will win games. Look at the way the team plays with Jameer on the floor compared to AJ. The offense flows better with Jameer. I will admit, the offense flows better with Rafer than Jameer right not, and that is why Rafer is starting. AJ, however kills our O. On most possessions it takes him atleast 6 seconds to get accross half court, then another few seconds to get in the offense, he kills our shot clock because no other pg respects him. That is why Jameer is playing over him, he can get the team into its offense, whereas AJ just backs the ball down the floor wasting half of our shot clock

Wow, if he was in, everybody would be screaming to play Jameer. Anthony Johnson is not going to give us any extra lift to beat LA. Everybody screaming for Johnson are probably the same people who hated him playing during the year.

Hah, I was angry we took Howard over Okafor...then after the draft I told my friend, if Howard would be like Amare Stoudamire was when he came out, I could live with that...MAN AM I GLAD WE TOOK HOWARD and we didnt go with my decisiion

I would love for Jameer to get some time in the finals!

He's attempted 188 free throws and made 142 of them averaging 28.4ppg from the line...which means he's only averaging 12.8ppg from the field...hardly impressive. I'm sure it's already been discussed but i thought that would put it into perspective. FYI, I think you need to look at the stats again. I believe hes shot 188 free throws the entire post season, not just this series. This would mean he is averaging 10.92 ppg from the line for the post season. This is still a lot and as I've heard may break the record for free throws in a post season...but its not as crazy as you thought it was.

quote: Originally posted by JRam027:Gained respect for his play, but have lost any ounce of respect I had for his so called 'team' No one on that roster would make the rotation for us. Mo Will who's their next best player would be the 3rd PG for us. But yeah, LBJ is kocky as hell. To be fair, Mo would be a second string PG for us behind Jameer. I love the way Rafer has played for us, but I'd feel more comfortable with Mo that him. As for LBJ, that guy is freakin' good. I've gained respect for his game, he is freakin' good. I knew he could take over games...but I never knew he coule just hit those cluth jump shots, clutch 3's... did not know his shot was that good. Going with the theme, lost respect for the ref's..anytime he goes to the lane its a foul...stupid

He's not 18 anymore! But I agree, I would like to see him be more aggressive when finishing, it seems he goes up too soft around the basket now.

cant do it like we did against Boston. If we bring Alston over, Mo Williams can knock down shots.

Big Baby and Perkins are moving on everyone of those screens on Reddick to free up Allen!

Being that I am from Ohio...I actually hate the Cavs...but will be rooting for them 100% to take destroy the Celtics...and also for Ben Wallace to knock the **** out of big baby davis and rondo. But if all goes well, Big baby will already be at home crying watching us beat the Cavs

Time for Bostons parade to the line?

This just pisses me off. Is there anything we can do to at least be heard and let Stu Jackson know we are on to this ****. This has got to stop!

Howard and this team need to learn the art of the repost. Shaq was one of the best at this. If howard does not have good position, pass the ball back out while getting better position, then pass the ball right back into him. When he gets the ball too far out he tends to take bad shots. Once he starts a move, hes doing it no matter what. If he has better position, this will not be an issue because with good position he is unstoppable. He and this team need to just be more patient in the post and work the re-post. Howard could also afford to become a better passer out of the post after dribbling, rather than just passing out before the dribble. He gets in trouble when the help comes late. This is in no way a post hating on Howard, just saying he, and this team still have some growing to do. Howard will only continue to get better at these things, especially if our perimeter players would be patiend enough to throw the ball back in to the re-post.

During the game i did not think he would, but after watching how much attention this is getting, and also seeing the replays that it was blatant, yes he will. I just wish now that he would have made it worth it and really connected, I hate Dalembert. He was definitely pushing Howard with his forearms before that happened.. Now we will really get to see Marcin Gortat. Hopefully Lee is back and Lewis continues what he did tonight.

I must admit, I still break out my Penny jersey from time to time.

This is the Shard we need EVERY night!

Man I miss Jameer, he would always hit the daggers when we needed them.

WOW, I'm watching this on a philly station because I just moved to PA and dont have NBATV, these announcers are HORRIBLE! They just defended that call saying Lewis DEFINITELY pushed off and also claim that Howard gets away with so many offensive fouls and travels.

ISO FOR LEEEEE!!! I'm pumped!

Wow, as I was reading through this thread, I was actually thinking how Courtney Lee's game reminds me of Brandon Roy. Lee is just going to keep improving, and he is a very smart player. I think his offense is going to keep getting better with the more freedom he gets in the offense.
