They literally do nothing but argue the whole time. Noah is the biggest bitch of them all, but he's hardly alone.

blame paxon. you cant go into a season with everything up in the air like he did.

biffing on blockbuster after blockbuster, guys who were looking for their first big contract of their career seeing their name attatched to every trade rumor in the league.

i dont think you can overestimate how bad of a job paxon has done.

hes a classic example of the saying: "more is lost to indecision than to bad decision". what a clown.

Am I the only one that thought that Tay's injury and sudden recovery was a bit "D-WADE"-ish?

God, that was hard to type.

I think you guys are being dishonest.

When he was squirming around on the floor in pain, I was thinking "fuck, he's really hurt".

I was starting to picture Valter in the rotation and Hayes starting.

It wasn't good.

And then, after like 5 minutes kicking and yelling on the floor with his teammates around him, he popped up, shook his hand and shot two free throws.

He then proceeded to play better than he has in weeks, throwing down dunks, etc.

My wife even said, "man, he was really milking that injury, wasn't he?"

She mentioned Mateen and I had to tell her to shut it.

I agree. Move Dyess back to the bench, have him play 25 minutes a night rather than 30...

Theo is PERFECT for the role. Plus unlike Sheed, he can win the opening tip.

Not to mention, HoopsHype had a brief article about Theo takling to Joe D about him coming back next year to be the 5th big...

If you look at Tay, there isn't much cushion.

I didn't see it, but I wouldn't doubt he milked it. He's had a growing flair for the dramatic with the way he always bitches to the refs. Its starting to get old.

I think Sheed -could- win the opening tip if he wanted to.

The one thing Jerome James was good at besides fouling was winning the opening tip, which is how he got to be a starter.
