I see Aid has joined us in trolling, Magic.

The Bulls will win the Championship in Game 6 against the Nuggets. Book it!

Spoiler for Rose sucks:

Well good news for Lakers fans. Apparently Dwight has been active in practice and despite previous reports that said he would miss the beginning of the season to recover from his back injury, it seems as if all signs are pointing to him participating in full training camp and preseason and playing opening night.

god damn, sometimes this team just seems to have everything go their way.

























































....and that's usually when everything goes bad.

I hope Rudy Gay and Zach Randolph and co-exist together in Memphis. It seems as if they just don't compliment each other well, since 2009 when Z-Bo joined the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies are under .500 with both Rudy Gay & Zach Randolph starting. Because if you ask me, Rudy Gay is the main reason the Grizzlies lost the series against the Clippers. Was the definition of selfish, inefficient, chucking hero ball. He ruined the team's chemistry, became a black hole on offense, etc.

My thoughts are that if Z-Bo is healthy this upcoming year and is playing like he was during the 2010-11 season and Z-Bo/Gay are still not complementing each other well, my thoughts are to trade Gay for some complementary pieces. Trade Gay to a borderline playoff team that's looking for a player to push them over the edge and hopefully get some great pieces back.

But of course I hope that doesn't happen because my wish is that the two do co-exist together, the Grizzlies are a top 4 seed again except this time hopefully getting past the 1st round.

The Rudy + Z-Bo/Gasol not complimenting each other is a bit overblown. Randolph admitted to only being 60% in the playoffs and the only reason why the Clippers beat them was because Reggie Evans/Kenyon Martin truly shut down Z-Bo/Gasol in the paint.

A healthy Randolph + Jarryd Bayless who should be better at SG off the bench than Mayo was should give the Grizz the 4th or 5th seed again.

Right now, I think teams could make the WCF easily: Lakers, Thunder, Clippers, Spurs, Grizzlies in that order.

I think OJ is better than Bayless.

Royce White has shit his pants already didnt even bother to turn up to the rocks camp.

disappointing i thought he would actually do well in the NBA but i think the anxiety problem will get the best of him
