    I seriously watch mason Plummer and say things like "is javale McGee that bad?"

    According to that Doritos commercial, anything is possible

    I haven't watched Mozgov play this season but being a Cleveland fan, the crazy thing to me is, two years ago I thought for sure he'd get a max contract when he was a free agent just due to his size and his ability to protect the rim, rebound and shoot the ball and then last year, the guy looked completely lost. Pretty much lost all playing time and somehow still managed to get what, a $64 million contract?

    Oh, and he has by far the worst hands I've ever seen. Couldn't catch a bounce pass to save his life.

    Could be a case of those Bulls miles finally adding up. He started last season a little slow as well, so we'll see. At this point in his career he should probably be shifting to PF. He played much better in Miami last year when he was a t the four. As a Bulls fan, I'll always have a soft spot for Deng. I hope he turns it around for you guys.

    I only have seen Mozy a couple times this year. He looks better than he ever did for us last year in Cleveland, but it's still not great and he doesn't make sense with how LA wants to play. I think there is something deeper with that knee injury. There is no getting around how good he was in Denver and how huge he was for Cleveland that first year. He was not an elite center, but definitely a sound starter. He just isn't the same guy anymore. I don't know if it was the surgery, the rehab, a re-injury, or some combination, but he has not looked right in a while.

    Mozgov had that one great alley oop dunk against the kings though, so that warrants his $65 mil in my opinion.

    Nah, I'd be screwed then. Unless we're talking 8ft rims.

    I normally find myself rooting for the Blazers, but when they play the Cavs I hope the Jail Blazers show up.

    It'll be the exact opposite. Cant wait for a top 5 pick

    Holy hell. I just check Love's box score. 28 points in the 1st!!! Lebron with 7 assists in 8 minutes. Damn.

    81 points in the first half! Holy hell. I don't blame Harkless for getting pissed. Tristan is annoying to play against and they gave up lots of points.
     
  18. Kemba balled out in the 4th tonight

    Team fell apart at the end though

  19. Hornets had 8 players in double digits and lost. That's weird, right?

    Please give me lots more of Zeller playing the 4 with Horford on the floor, Brad

    Man, I was hoping Love would keep that hot streak going for the rest of the game and he'd hit like 60 or 70.

    Gah man. Brutal way to lose to the Spurs. Charlotte is a good team. Need to get Zeller back asap though.

    I get Davis is really good, but Minnesota has one job on defense: make someone else shoot on the Pelicans.

    Davis was probably just sick about hearing about Towns being better than him. Kind of like how Towns dominated Embiid.

    Yeah, way to get embarrassed on like one of five national televised games we have. Woof
