Amare lovest to talk trash and for some reason I wish players did it more because it starts great rivalries. Can't wait for January 27 when the Knicks come down to South Beach.

God, I hope you're right. Without hayes, the kings could be a little screwed, though. I think they'll eventually play something like this:
PG: Jimmer
SG: Tyreke Evans
SF: Marcus Thornton
PF: J.J. Hickson or Jason Thompson
C: Demarcus Cousins

Not a bad team. Clear weak spots are the forwards, although Hickson played well in Cleveland when he had LeBron to do more of the scoring. Marcus Thornton is a natural 2 guard, not a 3, but you could really play any two of Fredette, Evans and Thornton at the 1 and 2. Unless you want to move Tyreke to small forward, which would never happen, the Kings will remain sort of weak there, because Thornton's not an SF normally and Donte Greene and John Salmons are...well...Donte Greene and John Salmons.

D-Rose with a clutch performance down the stretch. NBA where Amazing happens:) Melo n Lebron both with outstanding performances, 37 points each. Orlando got smashed by the OKC. The new Number 1 LA team is probably going to end up beating the Warriors. A good Christmas day.

Ricky Rubio is the next Nash.

he's the closest thing to the next nash we'll see in a long time because he truly is a pass first pg. the nice thing about watching rubio play is he plays to bring the best out of his teammates very similar to nash's style, however i dont think he will ever make the 50-40-90 club because he simply doesnt have the full package and struggles shooting the ball. i think he'll have a lot of success in the nba though, his court vision and passing is superb.

Looks like Westphal was the problem...probably...hopefully. It seems like he's being a bit better for Smart, and Westphal got really petty in his last few days as coach.

I have to admit, that Kobe does play better when he's having personal issues. 4 straight games with 40+ points is amazing at the age of 33. But Lakers aren't going anywhere with him doing all the work. -Lebron James 2012 finals MvP.

The age ain't the surprising thing. It's the fact that it's his 16th season. Which translates to 70 regular people years. If Lebron ends up being the Miami closer, ExpectToFail. And don't be so quick to count Chicago out.

i disagree with the fact that you don't think he'll make the 50-40-90 club. for the past 5 years we've been looking for Rajon Rondo to step up and shoot the ball better. well, in Rubio, you ultimately have a Rondo that has a decent jumper. give him 4 years in the league and he'll be leading the t-wolves to success.

bulls will NOT make the finals, they've made no changes. adding rip hamilton has not turned out the way they were hoping, he's injured often and not making an impact when he is healthy in the lineup. they lack the same problem they did last year and because of that will go crashing out in the playoffs again. we saw today what happens when rose doesn't play, they lost memphis who doesnt have zeebo even playing. no one steps up in chicago when rose isn't on ... chicago screwed up by not persuading jrich enough to sign. jrich had the choice between orlando and chicago. as much as we hate to say it, there is no team that will hang with the heat in a seven game series this season. not only did they beat a fully loaded hawks team with both wade and james out, but everyones forgetting about the rookie bringing a whole new energy off the bench ... norris cole has been stellar.

OKC will Never win a Championship. they are cursed by Seattle SuperSonics Fans, one day Seattle will Defeat OKC and make the finals, And WIN. and navkarn my friend you are very right about the Heat, I don't think any team can handle them in a 7 game series. Lebron James will have your full 4 Quarters in change for your damn dollar this YEAR, I promise. and... Ricky Rubio is the next Nash.
