2010-2011 NBA Season

D-Will hits a last-second shot for Utah. The Jazz have trailed at the half by an average of 13 points in all of their last five games. In those games, they are 5-0. Now that's saving the best for last. By the way, those five wins include victories against Orlando and Miami.

By the way, Dwight Howard doesn't even look like one of the top 15-20 NBA players at this point, and Orlando will be lucky to draw a six seed in a conference that features Chicago, Miami, Boston, Atlanta and an improved Bucks squad. Of course, it's early.

 

Yeah, to those who watch the Magic regularly (I don't think I've seen a minute of them) what's their deal been?

 

Tony Parker had 21 points and seven assists last night. No word on whose wife he banged after the game.

 

Outside of Vince Carter, who on that team can create a shot on their own?

How many players do they have that can curl off a screen like Allen? I'm trying to remember how well Lewis does that.

 

Although they are on a two-game winning streak, they are ranked 28th in team assists and had only 12 assists in their last game. It appears their problem is that they create too many of their own shots.

Boston leads the league in assists. Also in the top 10 are Chicago, New Orleans, San Antonio, the Lakers, Utah, Dallas, Golden State, Portland and Atlanta. Do you know what those teams have in common? I'll give you a hint. Check the standings.

 

How many of their points came off of offensive rebounds?

When I say create a shot, it does not have to be their own. Sorry about the confusion on that.

Steve Nash is a great example. He is very much a one-on-one dribbler, but his efforts unsually give another player a good shot.

 

Magic have a few weakness, Quinton Richardson is just a three-point shooter at this point of his career. Vince Carter is slowly declining, Dwight Howard is a terrible Free Throw shooter, Lewis is very lazy at times and relies on his jumper to much instead of driving into the lane(I know that's been his game most of his career.)

I believe that Nelson has to become a pass first shoot second point guard. I've watched about six Orlando games this season, and I believe he takes to many ill-advised shots.

 

South Beach 8-6. They will be very very good at the end of the season but it's been nice watching them struggle. It's not an easy game, even with 2 Hall of Famers.

Will LeBron have a little tantrum soon and alienate DWade?

 

I, Rick Stain, was completely wrong about the Heat and entirely fooled by them.

 

It amazes me how people vastly overrated the Heat from the get-go, even when they are so horrendously poor at two vital positions.

I just hope Spoelstra isn't tabbed as the scapegoat. He's a good coach with two great players, one average player and the rest are scrubalicious.

 

Do you guys think the Heat will get to 72 wins? Only 64 to go!

 

If LeBron doesn't win a Championship this year, the racists and terrorists have won
