Thought the Raps had it and had to switch the shyt on when I saw the lead evaporate. Mans might have to have a funeral for Watanabe. That lineup in the second half of the third was horrendous.

Looking at that makes me think when has a team been able to draft a bunch of players and transition them all from the bench to the starting lineup like that? It's actually pretty incredible.

i want demarcus
i know the cacs on realgm and the cac writers on the athletic are talking about a "horrible fit"

even though we were starting alex len and still trot out aaron baynes
demarcus is still an elite rebounder and a big body and thats all we really need


id take demarcus over baynes any day of the week

Cousins parting ways with Houston? Forget Drummond :camby:

demarcus was avg 8 points 7 boards in 20 minutes
yeah he was shooting 37% but aaron baynes is shooting 40% and avg 5 points 5 boards in 20minutes

we owe nothing to baynes at all not picking up his option and hes 35 and crap
we owe nothing to cousins as well if hes crap don't play him or waive him
its not like we have a young big he'd be stealing minutes from

right now we are sixth and the way the east is we might finish number 2 again :heh:, if we ain't going to tank at least get a proper big

At the top.

Never seen anything like it.

We need to improve our bench, Powell can't go back there ..his splits coming off the bench vs starting is ridiculous.

Curious to see how Fred does in this one. Always getting bodied by Simmons.
