With the Lakers acquisition of Howard we're going to need more fouls to use against him if we choose to hack-a-howard. This guy is as good as anyone out there to play that role. And what about injuries? We need more depth at the 4-5 spot.

Welcome to the Purple Hayes!

So does freeing up a position in the back court indicate which way Jeff is leaning in the draft?

I'm still questioning whether we should give up Casspi. Yes, I know that defensively he's currently a liability and that offensively he doesn't have much of an interior game but if we could change our offense to be more aggressive, especially the second team, I think he could be quite valuable...

Sorry, I can't accept that logic. That's like saying that it goes on in all other sports and that the NBA has the only logical way to prevent sandbagging. Again, I don't buy it. It's exactly what the NBA wants you to buy into. And, if that's so then what's that say about the integrity of the...

While it's probably much more mature to be like most of you who are trying to see the silver lining in all of this I, for one, prefer to vent on a unique system to sports that rewards better teams over lesser teams simply by the owners wanting to create more excitement and anticipation for their...

While I'm also loving the 20/5/5 I'm also loving the lack of turnovers that so many of us were afraid of when they decided to let him run the point.

I think this hyper-activity also explains his problems on offense as well. He tries to make the moves so fast that he loses control of himself and is off just enough that his shot bounces off the rim. I could live with his foul problems more if he were more efficient at putting the ball in the...

I thought the more noteworthy info of this article was that apparently the Kings have deemed no one, not even Martin, untouchable in any trade scenarios that may evolve. I haven't heard that Martin was available before.

I think I'd rather have Tyreke Evans at PG even if Rubio is available. I can just see us with Rubio bouncing bullet passes off of JT's noggin til one or the other gets totally frustrated or hurt. Evans is a big PG that can get to the basket seemingly at will, draw fouls, post up smaller guards...

Nice to have you aboard, coach. I think you bring the right blend of knowledge, positive experience and willingness to work for the least amount of money being paid head coaches in the NBA! But, in fairness, what I've read indicates you set your own salary so you must have the confidence to...

While I'm all for CWebb lending his high profile to our team to gain respect, establish legitimacy, and teach our "bigs" my only concern would be that his opinions and public quotes may overshadow or cause confusion with those who are really in charge. Then again, given Geoff's reluctance to...

Which brings me back to my original premise; if more picks, at a lesser cost, allow us the opportunity to mine more nuggets (especially now the way none of these kids are putting in 4 years in college that would allow for greater scrutiny) then wouldn't that be the way to go? Especially if we...

Not having time to read the preceding 22 pages I hope this idea hasn't been discussed already but if so my apologies. What does everyone think about trading our #1, if it indeed happens, to someone with multiple first round picks such as the TWolves? With only six returning players next year...

Coaches are over rated. I doubt they make more than 5 games in a season difference one way or another. You need talent on the floor and we don't have enough of it in the right proportions at the right positions. Any coach saddled with this mix is bound to lose... at least until the kids get...
