They don't need to take 3 pointers, they have Jones and Chalmers to do that.

James Jones 48.4%
Mario Chalmers 44.4%
Both are career highs at this point.

Yea Celtics vs Dallas should be a good game.

Don't feel like going back 20 pages, so, this is for Boltman.

Bogut had private family illness issues in Australia. He was given time off by Herb Kohl and all the other brass, all the way down to Skiles.

Looks like Rose will be out for tonight's game. Bulls sign D-Leaguer Mike James. Hopefully this will be just one game.

Good, would rather he sit out a game against the Wizards and rest up than play and get worse. No need risking further injury for a team like the Wiz. No offense Wizard fans.

I say, sit him out for the week. There is a chance that Watson could play sometime this week so as long as he's there he can keep the ship going while Derrick rest.

Some good games tonight....

For the games I care about:

Spurs get their revenge vs the Rockets

Boston squeaks out a win @ Dallas

ORL over Portland

LAC over MIA

Games in Boston not Dallas.

Why was Mike James in the D League? Doesn't the D stand for development? I guess I thought it was primarily for young guys to work on their game.

Reporter: The Jazz said they traded you because they didn’t want to go through same thing Denver did – were they accurate?

Williams: "I’m going to answer every question you have about tonight’s game. Or Utah’s game. Other than that, I’m not in there – I’m not Carmelo Anthony, I’m not the Denver Nuggets, I’m not Chris Paul, I’m not the New Orleans Hornets. I’m not Dwight Howard, I’m not the Orlando Magic. I’m not the Utah Jazz anymore either. I’m the New Jersey Nets, the last time I checked."

Reporter: Let me phrase it this way then. …

Williams: "You can phrase it anyway you want, you’re going to get the same answer."

Reporter: No, this is a chance to defend yourself. …

Williams: "I’m not defending myself. Nobody’s coming at me."

Reporter: But people sometimes put you in that class. …

Williams: "Look, man. Look. Look. You’re not understanding, I’m not going to talk about it. No matter how you phrase it, no matter how you put it.

Reporter: I just wanted to ask you if you thought it’s unfair. …

Williams: "I got traded. It’s part of the business."

Reporter: But you never asked, so it’s unfair that people lump you in. …

Williams: "Still asking the same question. I said I’m not going to answer it."

Reporter: Alright. …

Williams: "Alright."

I don't think I'd have a problem with that. Though with turf toe, that's not going to go away any time soon. We're going to be hearing about this for the rest of the year.

Damn. I hadn't heard that name in a while. He was pretty good when he was with the Raptors back in the day.

Wonder if that was a NY reporter.

DWill was trying to reflect it as much as possible. Handled it with class.

Wonder how much more he can take.

Nah it was a local reporter from Denver.

Reflect as in look back upon?

Or did you mean deflect?

Honest question because I don't know how you were interpreting that.
