    Combating Kobe
    4 minute clip of Batum and Webster shutting down Kobe from a film study point of view. Very entertaining and insightful.

    Once Nico becomes a little stronger, he'll have much more success against the likes of LeBron and Melo. Right now, he gives the smaller players fits. He truly is one of the elite perimeter defenders in the game. Durant would have been a great addition, but I am HAPPY with Batum and his ability to guard any teams best player at nearly any position. He fits this team like a glove.

    On to Martell. His contract sucks due to its length, but if he can't find a niche as a dead-eye shooter, he'll find it as as crappy defender. The one thing you don't need minutes or rhythm to perform well in is the art of defending. If he can continue to progress as a defender, our perimeter defense, once thought to be a major weakness, now becomes a strength.
    I am a fan of Watching Elliot Williams Take Flight!

    Batum wrist wasnt hurting. If it was hurting that bad then he wouldnt have played.

    Yeah I was one of them *blushes*. I was never a diehard fan of basketball until the 2011-2012 postseason. I could name every team, but I always forgot two. Kings and Blazers. 

    Do we really WANT to get noticed though? What good is it? I...

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
