Where the hell you at Matrix?

Suns hit 22/40 from deep in a win against the Lakers and you are no where to be found.

But, if Fisher hits one three to win against the Suns, you raise hell in here. LOL

LA still let's PHX get wide open looks from distance. Didn't learn from last year's playoff series. Oh well.

Anytime you give up the 2nd most three's in one game in NBA history, you deserve to lose. Embarrassing.

I think he went out with Jack Daniels after the Texans game.

Good game, could have been better. Obvious problems, won't work every time.

Good win.

Forgot to add this earlier:

Was proud of how New Jersey looked last night against a top team in the league and was impressed with how they kept playing hard(which is something they rarely did last year)and was/has been impressed with how Devin has been playing this year, even though I ridiculously said that he would not be starting by the All Star break but he's been looking like his old All Star self so far. Travis Outlaw's corner 3 = $$$, even though I don't think he should be starting.

Was also glad to see Brook FINALLY stand up to Dwight and have his best game against him in his career, even though I wish he would've been more active on the boards. We got our 4 game West Coast trip coming up(LAC, SAC, UTA, DEN)but I think we can at the most take 2 of those but as long as we play like we did on Saturday Night, then we'll be alright.

One thing's for certain: these aren't last year's Nets anymore.

Gotta get it right. It's "Yeah, sure, it gets the job done, but are you really satisfied?"

*Pours one out for GSW*

"Sure there's a lot of scoring and penetration, but you can't be happy with what you see or can't be happy with what you're watching or can't be happy with what you're seeing.

Either one of those I like the best.

^^And to think I thought this guy was crazy for opting out of his contract last off-season. ^^

He made a great team choice right there.

No he isn't.

Look it up my friend. Chris Paul has no meniscus in one of his knees.The cartilage in his knee is almost completely gone.

As we've touched on previously, it's been reported Brandon Roy has no meniscus left in his left knee due to an operation two years ago. Essentially, he's been playing bone-to-bone for a while now, and it's causing his recent loss in explosion and limited minutes. (Roy also has no meniscus left in his right knee stemming from an operation in the spring.)
In Monday's PER Diem, ESPN's John Hollinger writes about the Hornets' hot 8-0 start.
And tucked inside his analysis is the fact that Chris Paul had a similar knee operation to Roy, and is also miniscus-free in his left knee.
Does that mean Paul could be headed towards a similar fate?
Hollinger explains:


ESPN's John Hollinger

Why Paul could end up like Roy

"If you're following the Hornets closely, what's happening with Roy has to have you a little freaked out. Pardon my Stephania Bell impersonation here, but Roy had the meniscus removed in his left knee two years ago, leaving it in a bone-on-bone situation, and after two years of that pounding he's now paying the piper. We don't know what his future holds, but we're guessing it's dramatically less productive than his immediate past. (Wait, it gets better: Roy also has no meniscus left in his right knee as a result of April's surgery. This whole routine may play itself out on the other leg two years from now.) Why am I bringing up Roy? Because Paul had a similar procedure done after his knee injury last spring. So Paul, like Roy, is meniscus-free in the knee, and I suspect that grinding action is going to have a similarly destructive effect someplace down the road. But for now it might have created an especially focused player. While all athletes face a rapidly ticking clock before their bodies give out on them, it seems to me that Paul's is ticking even faster than most, and I wonder if that created some of the urgency that led to all the drama this summer."

Read em and weep.

Same here, man. The team is playing great ball so far this year. I just hope it can continue. Even the Red Rocket stepped up against OKC.
