Stop hating on Battier, guys. He's awesome. #Detroit

Interesting.

Melo is a good(very) scorer and very poor passer. There is a big difference between an average passer (as in makes the passes he should) and a very poor passer and there is a decent distance between a great scorer and a good scorer. We are talking the difference between say Jordan and Mitch Richmond when you compare Durant and Anthony on the scoring front.
On top of that, the Thunder are better managed and have a lot more talent around them. You also totally glossed over that Durant is a great teammate and not a blackhole cancer, basically the two words that you never want to hear as adjectives for your star.

That wasn't my point. They'll be fine, just saying they'll need to stop being little bitches.

And my point was that without the flopping, all Battier can do now is hit a wide open three. And outside of the finals, he's sucked at that.
Speaking of Harden, he's really put me off these playoffs on him. I like him a lot, i really do, but he is so god damn reckless and stupid sometimes. Him and Russ have a way of turning stupid mode on and just going three or four straight possessions being black holes. At this point i'm not sure which one i'd prefer to keep.

To a team like the Heat, there's a lot of value in a guy who can flop and hit a wide open three.

Charlotte Bobcats hire St. John's Assistant Mike Dunlap
Interesting hire that probably nobody saw coming. He actually did a decent job filling in for Lavin last season at St. John's considering the team was full of freshmen.

That's kinda sad, that the only person willing to take the job was the assistant at a middle tier basketball school. #KillTheBobcats

Deron/Roddy/Marion/Dirk/Kaman?! Doesnt matter
Isn't Greg Oden a free agent too? Bring him and his kneeless self to Dallas.
We got some money to sign some good players and it's a big FA summer. I'm more excited for that to start than seeing the finals.

Oden isn't playing next season, he already confirmed as much. And that lineup isn't very strong.

I'm pretty sure that you get a free pass on changing teams if Jordan is involved in the management of your team at any time.

I know this will sound super homerish, but I honestly believe Brooklyn gives Deron a better chance to win, especially down the road, than the mavs

I think Deron is more concerned with who gives him the best chance to win next year, especially after considering that the Nets have used "the more optimistic down the road" tag for a while and it's gotten them nowhere, and to this point there's no evidence that it'll change any time soon.
