    Hearing Rockets trading Capella for Covington in 4 team trade.  Apparently, deciding to play the 5 guard game. :rofl:

     

    I know Wetbrook and Harden get quite a few rebounds for their size, but, the hell.  I like Covington, as SF,  but he may have to be a PF/C on this team.

    I think they were looking at Capela's health (Ankle Inury?) and given Morey's tenuous position with ownership over the China thing, the guys I follow said this was a let's make the Most Mike D'Antoni team we can since it's very likely neither of us will be here next year.

     

    Also I think just having two guys who can't shoot (Westbrook and Capella) on the floor was breaking their souls. 

     

    I hate the rockets and I hope this bites them in the butt. But I see their point.

  2. Well Hardin's shooting has improved, Lonzo Ball put 3 quality games together in a row....

     

    Too many injuries this year - and I'm not just saying that as a Trailblazers fan.

    Giannis is looking more amazing every year, guy is averaging 30pts a game in about 30 mintues. He's the only top scorer this season who's average goes up on Per 36 minutes. 

    I'd almost put Carmelo as a feel good story, especially given the win on the road in (also injury plagued) Toronto.

    Doug Marrone makes sense. What I can't figure out is Freddie Kitchens. Specifically, why is Freddie Kitchens the head coach in the first place? Gregg Williams had that team playing like an actual NFL franchise the last half of last season. Why not keep him as the head coach?

     

    The answer, of course, is fairly clear: because Cleveland.

    Yeah, I think they REALLY wanted to make Baker feel wanted by going with his favorite guy...

    Found an interesting band. It's the surviving remnants of Ronnie James Dio's original Solo Line up, they started doing Dio Tribute/Covers in 2012 with a new singer. Then, like the touring Thin Lizzy band before them (or around the same time) they decided to head to the studio and record new material, changing their name to "The Last in Line." 

     

    They're good. Not just because they're reminiscent of Dio. They tried to keep his spirit in their song writing.

     

  5. Ah, Furious George. 

    Looks like the League viewership is down this year, guess the "Warriors are killing viewership" and the "NBA is better when the Lakers to be Good," and "James Harden is the best scorer since Jordan," lines of thought are not panning out.

    I think having the warriors destroyed by injuries wasn't the defeat people wanted to see.

    The Lakers have the best record in the west and no one outside of LA cares.

    And James Harden is the same as the old "Throw the ball into the paint and watch the big guy bang" kind of boredom but on the outside. The guy is a good passer and when Houston does some ball movement he and the rest look good. But watching him jack 34 shots and only  hitting 4 is...wild.
