I think the path to contention remains developing our youth and collecting valuable assets. We'll stay the course. Which is why I think IT stays, and one way or another, Dragic goes.

Did you guys see this play? In the last minute of the game, the Miami Heat committed a turnover by trying to inbound the ball twice. LOL. I love how the ref was right on top of it.

The funniest part is that this mistake came in the last minute of a game where the Heat were within 1 point. It may well have cost them the game.

It did cost them the game. Cole told Whiteside to inbound the ball & it already had been. He should have been aware but what the hell was the PG doing telling him that? This is on Cole imho.

With Jacques Vaughn fired, who are the worst coaches in the league now? Ty Corbin has to be #1 worst, right?

Corbin definitely sucks, but Monty Williams is like THE worst. If you have the 3rd best player on your team and you can't make your guys see that that player needs to get 20 shots a game to fucking win then you SUCK at your job. Then Corbin. Then Shaw. Then Byron Scott. That dude is a total relic and a douche-nozzle.

Also, I don't want to put Brett Brown on the list but he hasn't shown me squat. It's like giving him the Washington Generals and asking him to beat the Globetrotters evry night, but still... show me something man.

Corbin's the worst. Shaw's bad. Scott is the ultimate douche. I also don't think McHale is all that impressive as a coach.

I thought this was cool:
The starting five of the Atlanta Hawks and James Harden have been named the NBA's Players of the Month for January.

He has improved their defense a lot. #11 or so after their horrible start. It's something, I guess.

I can't really fault Brett Brown. Their front office is putting a HORRIBLE roster out there. He has nothing to work with. Not saying I love Brown or think he's amazing, just that I can't draw much of a conclusion based on what he's had on his roster so far.

Adam Silver is in favor of putting the best teams in the playoffs. Good news for Suns fans (and basketball fans in general).
