    This is a new play that the Atlanta Hawks started running a couple of weeks ago. They overload the block on the weak side with 2 players. Jerry Stackhouse curls around the big men for a wide open 25-footer. Triple. Nothin' but net.

    Frank is balancing the fine line between tanking and corner turning. In essence, he's trying to outlast Joe D while lowering expectations for next year at the same time.

    they used to think asset meant your ass sets on the bench.

    This line is what's separating the good coaches from the truly great.

    these wins are doing no one a favor, where is the long-term perspective if we somehow end up at 10th seed in the east?

    Clearly the fresh-faced lad understands how you properly tank a season.

    19 minutes, 1 for 7 FG, 1 rebound, 1 assist

    This team is getting better. If we have a high lottery pick I imagine a scenario where instead of Jason maxiel starting alongside GM, we have Thomas Robinson (Kansas). With a late lottery pick we have Jeremy Lamb instead of Damien Wilkins. If we amnesty CV we have Jeff Greene instead of Tayshaun.

    Some sort of javascript error I presume. Not sure we have the talent here to troubleshoot the issue. You can try pressing F5 to reload the website assuming the issue is here.

    I really like Robinson. I'm not sure if I'm with you on Greene. He's always felt like a poor man's Tayshaun to me, and with his health issues...

    Greene is superior to Tayshaun ALL DAY LONG. In Greene's 2nd year he avg'd 16.5ppg, Tay has never done that! In his 3rd year he took a backseat to the Durant/Westbrook show and his scoring dropped to 15.1ppg, Tay has NEVER avg'd more than 14.7ppg in his entire career. On THIS team Greene would be the 17ppg scorer we need to bring this team together, plus he's a great defender at the SF position.

    I like Greene, and if his health issues are truly behind him, then why not? Having said that, he's not really the impact guy that I'm hoping for. He was a 16 point scorer as a second option on a 23 win team. Tay's been the fourth option on good teams almost his entire career. Greene was also pretty bad in the playoffs last year.

    Again, if he's healthy AND cheap, then he could help this team. I believe that he's ideally 3rd/4th scoring option at best. That's fine, since he would be behind Knight, Monroe, Stuckey, and hopefully, a stud wing. He'd fit on that team just fine. He's a versatile, smart player who could compliment a number of players.

    I get this message once in a while, too. Not that big a deal, but it does pop up a couple times per week.

    Help me with a bug report. OS, browser, browser version, and possibly the page it occurs on. Also, if you can copy and paste the output of the error message details to a private convo, that will help me get to the bottom of it. Thanks in advance.

    Only bug I'm having lately is this annoying banner
    keeps showing up...asking for people to join fantasy baseball.
    There is an "X" in the corner to eliminate the darn thing,
    but the "X" keeps disappearing whenever I try to click on it.

    Once you join the baseball league, the banner goes away.
