Hopefully they'll get it right soon....

give it 15-20 games.

once the stars pick it up, it's easy for the role players.

and in 2 games pau and kobe looked great in princeton offense (because of triangle background)

and dwight is benefitting from bynum-like gimmies.


the problem i foresee is not the system but the coach's substitutions.

even top ingredients and great recipe can be ruined by a crappy cook.

i like the blazers. they're never a threat.

True.

Hopefully this will be the year.

Blazers are always second best though. Pretty weak.

im waiting for Mitch to pull out the magic wand and send Blake for Lillard...

portland should give us their no. 1 picks.

we'll know how to use them.

we'll split the players we draft.

When your back up PG (Blake) is a scrub who can't score along with the return of other inept bench players (Eubanks) it doesn't matter who the cook is. This is not Brown's fault. The Lakers bench still sucks right now and they can't win it all with only 5 or 6 reliable players. The only strong bench player right now is Jordan Hill. Jamison and Meek's could break out soon but beyond that the pickings are slim. If things don't improve with the back up's it's going to be a disappointing season.
