[MENTION=430]Dr. Jones[/MENTION], do you know what's going on between Cousins and Randle?!?!



Aren't they supposed to get along as fellow UK alumni?

Randle caught Boogie in the face going after the ball in a double-team.
Some key commentators have been defending Cuz with how much he gets hacked during games with no calls.

As for the Kentucky thing... lol.. these guys joke around, a lot, about how many guys are U.K. guys and they playfully take a bit of a WWF/WWE approach to it all .. (will not expound).

It looked serious though that's why I asked.
 
Exciting finish to this Kings vs Blazers game going into OT.



Cousins means business this year. He has that 'look' I'd never seen before. Doesn't make as many bone-head decisions as before. I don't know if it's the change in the coach, or a change within himself, but he wants to win this year.

I was hoping this might be the season Kyrie finally steps up as a real co-star for Lebron, looks like not yet. (team points per 100 possesions)

Lebron without Kyrie/Love - 160.7 Offense 100.0 Defense
Kyrie/Love without Lebron - 108.0 Offense 132.0 Defense

Obviously small sample size applies (only ~30 minutes for each), but it continues the trend from the last few seasons. Lebron is the Cavs, they are nothing without him.

Those are stunning stats.
 
Man, I feel so bad for Pelicans fans. Dell Demps should rename himself Dell Dump. He signed Solomon Hill to 4/$48 and he got replaced as the starting SF by Dante Cunningham.
 
DeRozan is definitely the early MVP of this season that isnt getting talked about as much. He scored over 30 points in 8/9 games, has had 2 40 point games and the one game he did not get 30 he scored 20 and they lost. He is averaging 34 points on .533 shooting and their team is 7-2 so far. He had that one rough game and the only other loss is to the Cavs from a game winner from Kyrie. He is putting up as many shots a game (24) as Westbrook but scoring more efficiently. I am not sure it is sustainable with the amount of shots and minutes.

DeRozan's been phenomenal but Harden is the MVP right now tho.. He's putting up prime Tiny Archibald/Oscar Robertson type stats 30ppg and 13, apg, 8 rpg..
 
I've got some friends that are Nets fans and they didn't think Trevor Booker was going to make a difference, but now they're all convinced.

Win #4... and only projected to win 21½
 
The cool thing about DeRozan is that his shots outside the restricted area are basically all 90s/00s shot selection. So what he does goes against the defensive instincts that players learn in practice where the emphasis is on pressuring good shooters outside and keeping guys out of the paint. That way he getts looks that are cleaner and he's somehow efficient from that area. Kinda like Wade always managed to defeat the analytics even after computer simulation found its way into the league.
