If the Nets can lose to the Kings by 21, they're capable of being crushed by just about any team. So at what point of the season do we become more mindful of how the Hawks do on any particular night?
So what can we offer the Hawks such that they forfeit the swap deal? Give them Bass for the right for US to swap picks with ATL after they do or don't swap with Nets?
Probably nothing.
And it bears repeating that it's still early in the season. Bobcats starting 7-5, '10-'11 Warriors starting 6-2, etc.
In other news, CP3 became the first player since Magic to start a season with nine consecutive double-doubles. Would love to see him and Rondo in a race for the assist stretch later in the season (and seasons beyond). Like Highlander, but for point-guards.
