    Is It Impossible to Stop Duncan

    If Marion didn't guard Parker so much, maybe he could have better offensive games against the Spurs.

    Is It Impossible to Stop Duncan

    One problem with Duncan is that he has the passing skills to stay a huge threat even when he doesn't shoot at high %.

    Time to celebrate?

    It may sound depressing... but right now I feel the NBA looks more and more like WWE.

    Bill Simmons on Donaghy and the NBA

    When you see that Sterm only solutions to the NBA crisis are to impose a dress code and to apply rules following the letter of the law you know he has to go.

    Diaw could miss 07 Euro

    I try to translate: Hampered by back pains during a good part of the last season, Boris Diaw could miss the 2007 Euro in Spain. In addition to the recurring injury of the former Palois (Diaw played for Pau-Orthez), another serious problem arises. Phoenix required the French Federation to pay...

    Are GM's All Crazy?

    You can also try to list the PF/C under 22 who are better than Darko. Howard, Biedrins, Bogut arguably Bynum or Aldridge probably one or two from the 2007 draft and then??? Superstar like Perkins/Petro/Swift... Feel free to add names to that short list I don't have a great memory. Just to...

    Are GM's All Crazy?

    I agree with you. But Orlando didn't chose to throw him away. To land Lewis they had to send Darko away. It doesn't mean they didn't see potential in Darko. Detroit was a contender... it is hard to find playing time in a contender rotation when you are a 20 yo player. It is even harder for a...

    Did anyone said Darko is a great player?

    Are GM's All Crazy?

    And he is still 22, it is a bit early to judge his career. As a #2 pick he is and will always be seen as a bust. But he could turn into a very valuable player.

    Are GM's All Crazy?

    Seattle wants to build a team arround Durant and Probably Swift. This could take many years to make this team good enough to win a championship. In 4 or 5 years Allen will be 36 and ready to retire and Lewis would have been a backup for Kevin. By sending them away now Seattle free the cap space...

    Boris and the French Team

    The good news is that with France Diaw is forced to be a leader (with Parker). He can't hide behind Amare...

    Boris and the French Team

    French should be interesting to follow because the French coach has decided to modify the team composition and preparation. He decided not to select some NBA players (Pietrus , Gelabale, Petro) to take specialists (like Ferchaud a pure 3 pt shooter) and a player able to create when Diaw is on...

    New and Improved 2008 Draft Prospects Thread

    About players for the 2009 or 2010 draft. There is a young french SG born in 1989 who is having stellar games in the U19 WC in Serbia: Edwin Jackson (son of Skeeter Jackson a former member of the French national team - born American). In 4 games and 90 minutes he scored 81 points shooting at...

    New and Improved 2008 Draft Prospects Thread

    Rubio already makes the game change on defense when he is on the floor. And he does it against men in the best european league. This is amazing for a 16 yo kid. This kid should turn into a very special player.

    So why aren't we looking at big men?

    Going bigger will not help against Parker, since he is developping a very good jumpshot (Utah is big... and they didn't stop him). If we want to stop him or at least slow him down we need someone able to defend on him (No Shawn you can't defend on Parker).

    So why aren't we looking at big men?

    I know... that is why I put the focus on Petro... but I don't think Petro would be helpfull.

    So why aren't we looking at big men?

    Maybe we could get Petro from seattle. He has all the tools to become a decent center and should be athletic enough to play with the Suns. But he is a poor defender, not a good rebounder and his work ethic is questionable. Moreover he should not develop into a good center before Nash days are...

    Now this future draft Prospect looks impressive

    Actually I don't know this guy... you are probably right... but Ricky is not impressive... he is ****ing impressive... he not only play in ACB and Euroleague at 16yo he already makes things happens on defense, when he is on the floor the game change. I don't know how Ricky will do in the NBA in...

    Now this future draft Prospect looks impressive

    Ricky Rubio precocity is phenomenal... You can be impressive without playing the euroleague at 16yo. You sounds like saying Nash is good at best because Wilt or Jordan were what you'd call impressive.
