Similar to what happened to Westbrook I guess

At least it wasn't another acl

Definitely. Probably out 6-8 weeks if they re-attach it.

Man i dont know if the Sixers should build around Evan Turner or trade him

he's turning into a damn good player in this league

I think Indiana has a legit shot at 70 wins. The East is historically bad thus far, with only 4 teams over .500. They're young/hungry enough to do it.

Sucks about D-Rose.

1) Wiggins
2) Embiid
3) Randle
4) Parker
5) Smart
6) Gordon
7) Exum

lol at the bobcats
Tanked the wrong season

If you look at their schedule...they have had only two tough games (both against Chicago). They won 1 and lost the other. They also played Memphis at home...but Memphis has been wildly inconsistent.

I've only seen them play 5 times...but don't think their offense can consistently score against good defensive teams. They got a road-trip coming up soon where they face the top teams from West. That should give us a good indicator.

...btw, this is great for the Heat. Keeps them motivated during the early part of the season to not fall too far behind the Pacers - since the Pacers are already talking about nabbing the no.1 seed so they can have home court in game 7

I'm still mad about the Magic/Heat game tonight

At least this guy is a stud

Portland & Brooklyn

After watchin' him play against the Heat for a game and a half...I really like his game. Plays solid defense for a rookie and gives his all on every play. He's gonna be a really good 2-way player in the league.

feel really bad for drose. sucks to see one of the good ppl in the association get hit with those big injuries.

always been a fan of turner, ever since his Ohio State days. i see good leadership and i feel he's really good on the offensive and defensive side of the ball.

Just put Indiana vs Miami in eastern CONF finals already

the blazers are a problem..
