1. Finally.. Maubury is now not as popular as Palin is atm. Get his money and get out of NY. (who needs a point guard with a large payroll??)
2. Playoffs or bust. I'll assume if they can keep an above .500 record then their chances are good.

I know it's early in the season, but I already see a Lakers-Celtics rematch in the making. |
Yeah pierce hit the game winner on Atlanta last night when they were down for awhile. Shows who is still boss in the East.
Lakers are the bulls without Micheal right now. Going for 17-0 and maybe 72-10 but in the end they can't disappoint unlike MJ's bulls!
Persoanlly what happened last year is they got tired at the end. The west winning like that was tough but they ran out of steam losing so easily to the celtics who grinded out each game meaning they were not tired yet until it was over like MJ's bulls over and over.
"Howard recorded his first career triple-double with 30 points, 19 rebounds and 10 blocks Wednesday night" against OAK :wtf: I knew Dwight did not dish out assist but then 10 blocks damn. He is playing volleyball out there hahaha....:nervous: |

| i've learned something today with the spurs. They are going to fight and grind their way to wins until january, and they look like they have the appropriate role guys to do it. Mason and Hill both are filling in the best they could, and so far it looks suitable. The spurs are playing good D with just role players, and if they finish .500 before parker and ginobli come back healthy, then i say it's a positive gain for the spurs. |

doesn't matter, if they go into the playoffs with the 7th or 8th seed they will get bounced in the first round |

with their role players back by the playoffs(Gnobili and Parker) I am certain they are not going to be another Dallas. |

when you pay for a seat that close I would want a sniff of that also :)
My NBA notes:
-Mcgrady is Mr Glass!
-Shaq thinks jumping into someone with an arm going at them will not tak their head off!
-Wade is def back(not the heat just yet) |

I kept my mouth shut about the wizards until I read this..
Arenas: Last place 'for the better' -- if there's a Duncan in draft
| quote: | Gilbert Arenas is already thinking about the possibility of a last-place finish for his Washington Wizards -- and finding the silver lining.
With Arenas still working his way back from a third knee operation in 1½ years, the Wizards are off to a 1-8 start heading into their game Friday against the Houston Rockets.
"I don't want to see them struggle," Arenas said Thursday at Madame Tussauds, where his wax figure was unveiled, "but if this is one of those years where we don't make the playoffs or we finish in last place ... that's what happened to San Antonio and that's how they got Tim Duncan and look at them now ... and that's for the better."
The Wizards haven't given a timetable for when their All-Star point guard might begin practicing or playing this season.
He, though, now is targeting the start of 2009.
"They said Jan. 1 -- there is no doubt that I will be good to go ... play 40 minutes," Arenas said, according to a transcript provided by the team.
"I definitely want to wait until after New Year's. ... It will give me time to get in shape. Plus I want to learn the new playbook," he added.
Arenas first had surgery on the left knee in April 2007, then had another operation in November, and appeared in only 13 regular-season games last season. The latest surgery was two months ago.
"The old me would have already been playing by now. Getting older, I start thinking smarter, and everything is going well," he said. "Right now we are just playing the waiting game."

If I was the President, coach, even players I would kick his ass! He is getting easy money by sitting on the bench and because his team is doing bad goes and says being last is good. It does not matter because the season just started idiot!Now losing all those games for your fans might make them happy?? I thought he was a good player in his own special ways but now he better be looking for another team in the next few years because that "Tim Duncan" player they will get will play better and get him kicked out :whip: |
