[Nawzlew]

Dirk is dope

 

[scotthallwithapick]

There's nothing wrong with Dwight playing the ASG now. But the fact that he said "If I re-aggravate my shoulder in the next 2 games, I'll only play for a few minutes" says something tho

If he gets injured again, with all his problems, with all his team problems he'll still play

so whats up with Anthony Davis?

He's the 2nd most efficient rookie behind Drummond.

 

[mmg]

According to tweets he's since deleted, he's asked for a trade. And on Sunday afternoon, 11 days from the trade deadline, he tweeted something along the lines of "11 days left" or "11 days to go..". I wouldn't be surprised to see him moved next week, even if things are quiet.

Well give you Gerald Wallace for him

Davis is 7th in block rate, 10th in blocks per game/nearly 2 a game, 12 points a game, 7.4 rebounds, 1.2 steal all in 28 minutes

Same blocks and steals as Joakim Noah (who averages ten more minutes).

Anyone who thought he would step into the NBA and average 14 rebounds and 4 blocks a game was mistaken. He's putting up solid numbers as a rookie, and he's on track to be great.

 

[Bert.]

just sayin, have not heard one thing about him since the season began.

 

[sohi 23]

he caught a few freak injuries. son is the goods tho.

 

[JD617]

He is beasting, plus he's still 19 years old. Not that many teenagers have ever been as good as he is now. He's doing just fine.

Louis Amundson, released by Timberwolves, has cleared waivers and is drawing interest from several teams needing frontcourt help.

With all the injuries the Wolves have had, its kind of crazy to me that they outright released somebody. Adleman must really not be a fan of Lou's.

It's probably because Gelabale and Chris Johnson (originally 10-day contract guys) have played pretty well in their short time in Minny. Both producing given their minutes and sparking the team.

Here:

MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Timberwolves have waived forward Lou Amundson to make room for forwards Mickael Gelabale and Chris Johnson for the rest of the season.

Gelabale and Johnson joined the injury-plagued Wolves in January on 10-day contracts. Their second 10-day contracts expired Friday, meaning the Wolves had to let them go or sign them for the rest of the season. Both players made strong enough impressions to stick around.

Gelabale, a swingman from France, averaged 6.5 points and 2.2 rebounds and is giving the Wolves some size on the perimeter.

Johnson is energizing the team at both ends of the floor when he's in the game. He is averaging 8.6 points and 3.6 rebounds as a post player.

He's been banged up anyway

BTW I'm surprised Mr Unibrow hasn't put up Blake Griffin rookie avgs.

 

[cato312]

I have two differing viewpoints of Rose's statements:

1. He's essentially saying to the Org, get it together roster-wise. Booz for Bargs is not an enticement to come back early.

or...

2. He is echoing the Org's ultra-cautious approach in his rehab and eventual return. Reinsdorf also used similar wording in his prior statement regarding Rose and his comeback. Plus, the Org's been slyly selling the so-called 2014 / 2015 "Plan". He could be speaking based on their promises.

Personally, I wouldn't really mind if he came back next season.

Yep, Chris Johnson and Mickael Gelabale have been solid considering what they COULD have been.

Don't they feel like they type of players that we saw on this team 3 years ago though?

They're good stop gaps for everything the T'Wolves have been dealing with though.

 

[david bowman]

I k ow its not lebrons fault, but this lebron coverage on espn makes me want to hit a baby. Jesus Christ. So if they lose othe playoffs who's fault is it? Spo or wade?

 

[651akathepaul]

Yes. Eerily similar. It's unfortunate too, but it is what it is. There's always next year...

 

[Master Zik]

Snitch *** Jay-Will Lame *** ************. Son can't handle irrelevance well at all.

That title for the Rose almost had me. @ getting him for 110% actually not being attainable. Shots fired at the Chicago area educations system.
