Shit, you're right - Blanks didn't slide in until off-season 2011. Boy, did that sumbitch suck.....

And then his final move was to get rid of Lopez just when he was finally starting to get good. ;)

Who knows though. Maybe he needed a change of scenery to wake up.

He just needed to get his back healed and his lower body strength back. He still isn't what Kerr projected him to be though.

Yeah - twice. ;)

I really did have high hopes that breaking a practice court door wasn't going to end up being the strongest impact he made while he was here.....

That's too bad. The Wiz look like a scary team in the East if healthy. I know it's bad for a shooter to hurt his wrist, but wrists typically heal 100% back to where they were, right? It's not nearly as bad as injuring a leg, I assume.

I hope so. IT2 is recovering from wrist surgery. He looks good so far.

Apparently LBJ set a screen for Norris Cole against his own teammate when the Cavs played the Heat tonight. :D

$300 million dollars and not a decent item of clothing between the two.

My, that was snarky. Where'd that come from?

I am eager to see Westbrook then.

And yes, we need to start on fire.

Durant carried the Thunder when Westbrook was out last year. It'll be interesting to see if Westbrook can do the same this year, especially considering there's a lot of people who think Westbrook is the better player.

What? Who on earth thinks that? All I ever see is Durant & LBJ mentioned in the same breath. Then somewhere way down the line Westbrook is mentioned. Weird.
