Is it just me, or does this happen every time Rondo and LeBron share the basketball court?

I'm taking a break from Ravens Talk. People there are very tense right now.

I didn't see the game, but the Lakers finally lost their first game. I'll probably check my friend's DVR or something later.

Funny gif and I love Ong-Bak(got it on DVD) but LeBron's face should be replaced with Bosh's. His refusal to contest Rondo's dunk attempt last night was absolutely shameful.

I thought Charles Barkley said it best. Whats a power-forward who averages 15 points, and 6 rebounds? - A small forward.

I heard that line on [i]Around the Horn[/i] but didn't know that Charles said it. His comments sum up Bosh perfectly.

[Ed_Reed20]

Westbrook is the fastest PG in the league not named Wall.

Who would have ever thought Kevin Love would have the first 30-30 game since 1982? Shame the guy's stuck in Minnesota.

Beasley has found his scoring touch the past two games but those two aside, the T-wolves, have little ging for them.

Yeah. I forgot about Wes Johnson and Johnny Flynn as other building blocks but they do need a PG.

The Heat looked strong last night... the Wizards looked awful without Wall against a legitimate team.

I hope he comes back soon!

[Jamal]

Its a shame about Oden. Especially with a team like Portland, whose already been through this before. Last time it was MJ, this times its KD.

Yeah, I don't see how Oden will ever pan out at this point given the types of injuries he's suffered and his propensity to get re-injured. This could turn out to be the 2nd worst pick in NBA history (next to Sam Bowie over MJ).

Bosh was certainly hot but I want to see him do that against a team with a legitimate front court.

Yeah, the commentators seemed to make it a point to mention that the Suns are an undersized team. I think they're still coming into their own, and haven't even scratched the surface of how good they can be, even if facing a legit front court.

[Jamal]

I think the Heat can get away without a PG, because LeBron can certainty play that role, but I don't know how they can overcome Boston or maybe even Chicago once Boozer comes back, without a Center.

I think once Chalmers gets healthy, they'll have a legitimate PG. He isn't in the realm of guys like Paul, Rondo, Williams, Rose, Westbrook or even Jennings, Wall, Curry or Evans but he plays good D and can shoot threes.

I'm starting to think they'll trade for one before the deadline.

Draft picks and maybe James Jones if Mike Miller plays well when he returns.

[AwakenTheDemon]

This has nothing to do with the Heat trading for a PG (although with the off-season they had it wouldn't surprise me), but NBA.com is buzzing with ideas that the Suns could be looking to shop Nash. Personally, I'm not keen on the idea. But hey, if the Suns are looking to get rid of him, I'm sure there might be a few teams interested if the price is right.

I'd be interested to see what a team even gave up for Nash.

[AwakenTheDemon]

I don't think Wall has rookie of the year locked down, injury or not. Blake Griffin has pulled ahead of Wall, in my opinion, these past few games. It'll be interesting to see who ends up with the honor at the end of the year.

[XxSizzleXx]

Damn that white boy on the Clippers can throw it down. Never seen a white guy dunk like him.

[XxSizzleXx]

Lakers should trade for Nash, Fisher is getting old. That would be sick.

He's actually mixed but an amazing dunker nonetheless.

Awww, thought us white guys could say we have a good dunker now lol

The Birdman can still dunk.

Apparently, the Heat are signing former Maverick Erick Dampier to a one year deal with the recent injury to Haslem.
