Byron Scott fired? Damn, joke decision imo. He's getting a decent amount out of a mediocre roster and his 3-6 record doesn't tae into account they have played LA, Boston, Phx, Dallas and the Spurs so far.

In a way this was the perfect time for them to pull the trigger after that 121-63 game.

(y) Cavs

Awesome dunk from Wade on Varejao in the first quarter though.

The players don't like Scott. You could see that coming a mile away.

Hoggy31 · 13-11-2009, 08:16 AM

Cavs look pretty good when Mo hits his shots.

Wolves without Jefferson for 2, expect a couple of 50pt losses but Big Nate might be a chance to start.

duffer · 13-11-2009, 09:34 PM

**** I hate NBA refs. Lakers on a back to back so lets put Melo out with 3 horrible fouls in 12 minutes. Artest getting targeted for breathing on someone. Seriously, unwatchable. Ruining what should be an awesome game.

EDIT: Nice to see Nate Dawg get 26 minutes for the Twolves though. Hope for him yet.

Yo dcye, you said you didn't rate Afflalo? How awesome was his D on Kobe today? Gotta thank Joe Dumars for another steal.

I feel so bad for Ronron too. This is such bs what keeps happening to him.

I haven't watched it yet, was at cricket all day, but will catch the replay tonight. I'm easily persuaded

Lawson is quite the player. Just watched highlights of that game, nice to see Bynum back too.

I've seen a lot of guys try to defend Kobe but this was awesome.

-He didn't foul
-Stayed in front of any drive attempts
-Kept him out of the paint (i don't think Kobe even had an attempt in the paint)
-Didn't bite on any pump fakes
-Still contested every jumpshot
-Didn't make the physicality personal. As in didn't need to resort to thuggery like Dahntay which could earn you fouls on any given day.

Also, some pretty sick dunks so far this season.

Outlaw tomahawk on Rudy Gay
Iggy's lane drive
melo
D-Wade making Varejao his bitch

and my personal fav from today's game:

Lawesome dunking on Mbenga and Powell

duffer · 15-11-2009, 12:04 AM

Brandon Jennings is frighteningly like AI was in his rook season. The only two guys I've seen with that freakish lateral speed and handles. Just a freak.

Remember those sick AI v JKidd East Coast battles? Jennings/Rose. This is going to be amazing. Just hope Redd doesn't come back and take the ball out his hands because Jennings as #1 and Bogut as #2 option is working big time.

Mister Wright · 15-11-2009, 12:14 AM

Yes. Very exciting for Bucks fans

Also, good to see that Bogut is firing, he's needed someone like Jennings to really show his strengths.

dontcloseyoureyes · 15-11-2009, 12:31 AM

Dwade is so good.

Wow @ Jennings. What an insane performance.

How ridiculous is it that Slow-Mo Miller is in the all star ballot but Noah, the guy with 6 double-doubles in 9 games is nowhere to be found. Makes me dislike Miller just a tad. Also, Rose really needs to start driving more often, he's so good at it. Saw him lay it up over Dalembert with ease a couple of times, makes you wonder if he's just lost his confidence for some reason.

Isn't he carrying an ankle injury of some sort? Was sure I read that yesterday, which could be some of the reason.

Awesome stuff from Jenning (y)
