The Cavs were 12-23 before the Deng trade,

now they are 18-22 after the Deng trade.

Man Lance is good. He's the only pacer who looks like he is enjoying himself.

He just has to be more consistent doing it against teams that can make him pay for some of his over aggressiveness at times...

Since the Pacers got Turner, they have been doing horrible.

Hill and Hibbert are doing VEEERRYYY bad. Turner is also not doing so well. West is OK, and George's FG% is like JR Smith's or even worse. Stephenson is doing good.

Knicks ain't missing tonight...

Nets on the other hand....yeesh. Guess I'll be rooting for Chicago to win out and Toronto to drop a game or two the rest of the way.

Tbh it'll be funner that way than Miami/Atlanta

Re: 4/1 - 4/6 Games Discussion Thread

Wizards are officially playoff bound for the first time since the Agent Zero days.

I love Lance, but he needs to pass the ball more like he did tonight and particularly like earlier in the year. Pacers are a much better team for it. Same goes with PG.

I've always said the Nets will only go as far as Williams takes them. That he needs to be Utah Williams, the Williams that many said was better than CP3. So in short, I don't like their chances. Especially if Lopez aint comin back.

Typical Brooklyn on back to back games. I'll just forget this one

Not sure if you've been watching him these last few years...but he hasn't been his Utah self in quite some time and their chances weren't that good anyway, even with Lopez. To me at least.

Tonight ain't on Williams though.

Oh yeah, I have been, but I put it on the injuries. I've been watching him closely this past month and he showed some flashes but overall a lot of meh. That's why I didn't put him on my top 10 list when we were talking about point guards.

But yeah tonight wasn't on Williams it was on their whole team and a back to back. New York is playing for their lives as well.

Re: 4/1 - 4/6 Games Discussion Thread

Since the All Star Break, he's looked like an elite PG. Hell, the last 2 years he's stepped up his game after the break.

The problem is that he can't do it for an entire season because in the last 2 years prior to the ASB, he's looked/played like an average PG. And with that, I can see why people either have him on the border of Top 10 or have him out completely...the consistency isn't there.

Re: 4/1 - 4/6 Games Discussion Thread

Haven't watched him as close as you have since then, but I don't know man, elite? Elite by definition is the cream of the crop.

Re: 4/1 - 4/6 Games Discussion Thread

When Williams is on though he's gotta be one of the toughest players in the league to guard. Arenas has been mentioned a lot here recently and that would probably be a comparison. He's just too big and strong for point guards to defend yet still has the ball handling and quickness.. When the jumper is going and he's aggressive I can just imagine trying to guard him would be a nightmare. He just hasn't been that guy consistently enough over the past few years..

I'd like to see him team up with an elite big man. Someone who is really effective in the pick-n-roll game. They would be a deadly duo and make each other better.. It's really no surprise that neither he or Boozer as been quite as good since they parted ways.

Tyson Chandler comes to mind, could fill in for Lopez since he's hurt 70% of the time. That'd be a big frontcourt with him and Garnett.
