NBA Season 2015-2016

It's also really nice to see MKG back in action. I was pretty bummed when I thought he was out for most of the season.

It's just a silly observation, but Julius Randle seems to play well every time Smart plays well.

10/28 - Smart drops 13 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block with 37% shooting.
10/28 - Randle counters with 15 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists with 39% shooting.

11/1 - Smart drops 17 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block and 4 steals with 58% shooting.
11/1 - Randle with 22 points, 15 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 block, 4 steals with 53% shooting.

11/15 - Smart has his Westbrook game... 26 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block with 64% shooting.
11/15 - Randle can't match the Westbrook game - 8 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 1 steal with 37% shooting.

1/1 - Randle with 15 points, 9 rebounds, 2 steals on 60% shooting.
1/2 - Smart counters with 11 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assistgs, 3 steals with 43% shooting.

1/14 - Randle with 14 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block on 50% shooting.
1/15 - Smart counters with 10 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals on 33% shooting.

1/17 - Randle with 12 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block with 50% shooting
1/18 - Smart the next day with 20 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals with 61% shooting

1/25 - Smart with 13 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals with 45% shooting.
1/26 - Randle fires back with 16 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks with 43% shooting.

Tonight - Smart with 16 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 block and 3 steals with 56% shooting.
Tonight - Randle with 23 points, 14 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal with 56% shooting

It's almost like they follow each other since they were drafted back-to-back.  I mean, I'm sure that isn't actually happening, but it seems that way.

I have said before and I'll said it again: Glad the lakers chose to select Russel because he is a BUST. He reminds me of our own James Young. He's all about flash, bling bling, all dressed up, new hair, following all trends and all, but not matching that on the court... yesterday Kobe called him out for laughing out loud after the team lost by 20 or something like that... then we got the rumour that the lakers would like to trade him...he's not playing big minutes and when he's playing he rarely has a good game... he's no pass first pg... he's turnover prone... not athletic, no good d... maan I'm so glad they chose him because he's everything that I hate about them... and despite all that the media is all up on him and he gets chosen to play in the Rookie challenge... if he had played for the Charlotte or in Portland they wouldn't mentioned him...

Wow! Sixers now tied with GS with 22s left. Almost down 30 points at the half.

Dagger by Barnes. Gotta love Sixers effort though, I think they have a good chance of surpassing Lakers and Nets when it's all said and done.

Agree. At the moment the lakers and the Suns are the only teams in the whole league that purposely tanking.
The Sixers woke up from the sleep and seems willing and eager to win some games...we'll see the landscape after the deadline...

[CroCorvus]

I'm pretty sure these teams are going be sellers at the deadline:

Houston (what a mess of a team - under performing), Phoenix (rebuild), Denver (rebuild), Milwaukee (under performing) and Orlando (pretty messed up team. should trade some players. maybe fire the HC. under performing).

I didn't include us and other potential trade targets seemingly not so obvious (Clips for example). Rumors are that Utah and Atlanta are in there also, we'll see.

Hope Danny can work something out, because if we want to keep our core together, in order to get some xtra quality players, we must do some trades with multiple teams and players involved. I know this is complicated, but historically looking most of big blockbuster trades were complicated involving few teams and number of players.. hope Danny's team is working on some magic...

I LOOOVE RUMOR SEEEASOOOOOOON!!!

Myles turner just ate lebrons lunch! What a block!

Who to root for tonight:  Minny v. LAL

A Minny win puts more cushion between them and the Nets (3 win gap).

An LA win puts LA closer to the Nets (2 Win gap).

My hatred for the Lakers leads me to want a Laker victory in hope that they do not overtake Philly for worst record and maybe get enough wins to overtake the Nets for 3rd slot.   But it may be best for Minny to win.

On other courts, hoping for Phoenix to upset Toronto, and hopng that Portland can beat Milwaukee and get another step closer to Dallas.

i think id prefer a minny win, either way, cant loose. Unless the suns keep loosing.

I vote Minny win, as they're already ahead of the Nets.  A bird in the hand, as it were........

It's a shame you aren't running the Lakers.  I'd be thrilled to see them foolishly give away a superstar prospect. 

Russell is going to be awesome.

[esel1000]

Can't believe we lost to this Lakers team and their pathetic defense

[trickybilly]

Man Monroe needs to be traded....somewhere.. I have no idea where, but he should be on a winning team by now you'd think..

[ImShakHeIsShaq]

Now the tankers play well...
