So basically, Jim Buss seems out to prove that he is every bit the in-over-his-head dumb *** that Magic called him out for being earlier this week. Do it Jim.

Every time the Lakers show interest in a player, the rest of the league goes all out to make sure they don't get him. I wonder if this might be something they are fully aware of
 
u never know dough.. Dwight is soft, bu hes into HARD ons and ens.

No wonder he went to the Rockwt
 
Scott Brooks. He’s been called awful so many times that he’s probably underrated, and his contributions in getting the Thunder this far have been overlooked. Injuries add a giant asterisk to everything that’s happened this season. But none of that means he should still be coaching this team. It’s only gotten more obvious as OKC has struggled this season and all the problems from the past few years have only gotten worse.

Think about how Golden State pulled the trigger on getting rid of Mark Jackson last summer to add Steve Kerr, who has taken the Warriors to the next level. Then imagine the exact opposite. That is Scott Brooks in Oklahoma City.

which one of you wrote this? these dudes are definitely lurking :nerd:

Chris Paul and the Clippers. No team makes less sense than the Clippers. Everything Zach Lowe wrote about their offensive brilliance and playoff potential is true. But they’ve also been absolutely brutal to watch. Blake Griffin is teaching himself to be a small forward, Big Baby is 50 pounds overweight and still plays crucial minutes sometimes, Matt Barnes is the Clips’ version of Kendrick Perkins, and it’s all so grim that it doesn’t even matter that DeAndre Jordan is having the best season of his career.

Then there’s Paul. It seems like he’s gotten more ornery with age. Everything that was annoying about CP3’s game — flopping and cheap shots and *****ing to the refs nonstop — has only gotten worse, and what he does well has gotten less fun. It’s why people are beginning to turn on him. Everyone’s pointing out that he’s never made a conference final, he’s difficult to play with, etc.

The Clippers would get a C-minus or a D for the first half, but let’s just wait to see where this goes. Griffin is out for at least the next three weeks, and I think we’re about to see why Paul is one of the greatest point guards ever. It’s just a gut feeling; there’s zero evidence to support this. But the “CP3 is overrated” camp is getting way too crowded. Paul is not overrated. He is getting older, he’s obnoxious as hell, and he has never won anything. But he’s still the best point guard we’ve seen since Isiah Thomas and Magic Johnson. If he can keep the Clippers alive in the middle of the West with Griffin gone, that’ll just be a little more proof. And then if Griffin gets back just in time for the playoffs? The season from hell might not look so bad come April.
