  1. bring the post up big man back into the game? just a thought.
  2. what about shrinking the paint?
  3. i got a feeling chet is always going to be hurt.
  4. lucas raymond currently sits 19th in the nhl in points. at 22, he is the youngest player in the top 49 players in points. and he's 19th!
  5. **** defense by ausar. lucky shot, but if he just stays in front or near him it doesnt happen.
  6. i hope the warriors lose and implode. but now they'll probably win a championship because life isnt fair. see lions, detroit.
  7. wtf are the bulls doing?
  8. i was beginning to have my doubts too. and this may be us getting too excited about winning a lot of close games and that worm will eventually turn. but for now, viva el stevie! raymond and seider developing into stars has been the biggest development to me. they desperately needed that. and at 8 mil aav!
  9. why? why cant they just trade for butler without doing anything with beal? oh yeah, the salary cap and all its minute, ridiculous rules and subrules.
  10. people getting traded for tax and luxury tax purposes, not because of basketball reasons. people traded into cap space or max exceptions and not traded because they bring 3pt shooting or rebounding. its almost all cap moves and money stuff. some of the big trades are fun, the other stuff seems hung up on financial details. like, jimmy butler wants out, but phoenix cant trade for him because they cant aggregate salaries and fit him into cap holds and exceptions and blah blah blah.
  11. the nba salary cap rules really have ruined a lot of the fun of the sport.
  12. check the last 15 or so posts before yours. 😉
  13. first of all, its not enough money. cozens makes $7 mil. he has 10 goals in 53 games. just like andrew copp. now, he had one season where he scored 30. he's only 23. in a sense he fits their timeline as a #2 center. but if i'm making that kind of deal and taking on that kind of money, i dont know if i'm giving up a first. otoh, someone else might. and buffalo isnt giving him up without getting a first in return. if stevie thinks he is a true #2 center, then a #1 plus berggren and velenonis a steal.
  14. saw it on twitter. i dont listen to detroit sports radio.
  15. who is this person we just traded for?
  16. but before we (me) get ahead of ourselves, they were headed for the playoffs last year and one dylan larkin injury and the whole thing collapsed. its going to be tough sledding down the stretch. we'll see if they do anything at the deadline. pretty sure they have the best record in hockey since mcclellan took over.
  17. i think a lot of us owe steve yzerman an apology (except for the pro scouting department, they still suck). making the playoffs this year puts them ahead of schedule, imo. seider/raymond shouldnt even be in their primes yet... and lucas raymond might need a new agent.
  18. kane wins the shootout with an amazing move. streak is alive!
  19. sloppy play and bad goaltending. 4-4
  20. elmer! 4-2. nice play by veleno.
  21. there is nothing admirable about jimmy butler. not even bizarely.
  22. i feel like duren had five a few days ago against the bulls.
  23. i love hongbit the michigan defender. 🙂
  24. ball's been pretty injury free so far this year. and if all youre giving up is tec or thj and a second rounder, i'm good with taking that risk. i do think that won't be enough, and at the end of the day someone might pony up a late first for him. he's a solid player when healthy.
  25. he did say danielson could have been #2 on the list. but then goes on to say he doesnt look like a #1 center and the offense isnt there. i give credit to wheeler for putting out as much stuff as he does about hockey prospects. he's got great knowledge of a lot of different people. but having a wide base of knowledge doesnt always correlate to a deep base on each player. which is ok! there are hundreds and hundreds of these guys and i wouldnt expect him to have a deep knowledge of each one of them. i appreciate what he does while also disagreeing with him because ALL i do is follow wings prospects so i have different opinions about them. and im a little biased. 🙂
