or is it all the defensive attention Melo commands that’s opening up both of them? (I think this is the closest to the truth of the three)

The Honorable Cock Jowles: You were right the first time, guy.

heh, I changed that twice. Owen, the problem is it's just not so easy to extricate individual performance from team performance, at least not with the stats available to the public. is it Chandler's presence in the middle that's leading to so many open 3s, or is it all of the made 3s that's giving Chandler more room to operate in the middle?

“Really, dudes played great for this team IMO. Articulate how this statement is incorrect….or don’t and don’t. Sorry to be obnoxious, but this is the best season in a long time for me.”

It’s just not all about Melo. That’s my point.

What I see is what I saw last year. Tyson Chandler is far and away the best, most important player on this team. And it isn’t close. Not only the heart and soul of the team but the most talented.

Our success is about him and about the talented collection of role players and specialists we have collected in the last few years – and Melo…..

i’d be lying if i said that i wasn’t enjoying watching dantoni screw up the lakers with his dogmatic my way or highway approach and not coaching the players he has. systems dont win. players do. and AND he’s forcing the lakers to trade gasol for $.50 on the $1.00. god bless jimmy buss.

Lin sitting on brench in crunch time against the Lakers who have been getting lit up by point guards this season. Meanwhile the Rockets make up a 10 point 4th quarter lead and Hack-a-Howard is working like a charm.

The Honorable Cock Jowles: Before this year, he was one of the worst players in the NBA. That’s basically irrefutable. This year? He’s a borderline all-star. Look at his box score tonight.

right, and if you were a GM, you wouldn't have picked him up this summer if he were the last man on earth. idiot GM 1, you 0.

jon abbey: on a different note, do you guys remember when just a few months ago, one of those idiot GMs that THCJ likes to mock so much called Andray Blatche the single worst player in the NBA? oh wait, that wasn’t a GM, that was actually THCJ himself… :)

No problem, Judge, us veteran fans of the ’69 -’73 teams have to stick together!

Good for Washington, hate seeing teams lose nearly every game (unless it’s the Celts or Heat, they could never lose enough)
