    Let's see if he can duplicate it. Everyone was ready to crown Joey Dorsey as an all-star for getting 12 rebounds against the Grizzlies. He hasn't done jack since except get traded to the Kings.

    I was obviously joking about the MVP. But he is much more productive than Hasheem Thabeet. Haddadi looks aggressive every time he's on the floor. He plays smart and plays hard. Thabeet looks lost.

    Ok so how did Hollins do in the game last night? I guess he was terrible on defense getting boxed out every possesion and couldn't grab a board to save his life.

    Coulda had Reke and Blair....

    Dispute what I said for once instead of transferring blame to somebody else. You criticized me for saying I like the way Haddadi is playing. I say he's been playing well and he's much better than Thabeet (who you've been defending since the draft). Now tell me why I'm wrong...

    We could replace you with a bucket of warm spit and it would be a major upgrade.

    No he's been EXTREMELY productive the last 2 games and he's been productive in very limited minutes all year. Who's more productive in your eyes up to this point in the year-Thabeet or Haddadi?

    if we could replace you with someone open to others opinions and not so full of yourself that you can see light at the other end of the tunnel, it would be a miracle

    its great to have an opinion, but someone's ALWAYS gonna have a different opinion than yours...and dont think that by people not arguing with you that you are 'right'. its called not wanting to argue with an adolescent who thinks their sh@t don't stink

    Do you always butt into someone else's conversation? This was between Ice&FireTiger and me.

    I think taking a dump on the players on the home team's roster is worse.

    I won't do it to the Tigers and I won't do it to the Grizzlies.

    Ogress you have dumped on players from both teams plenty.

    EDITED by Peyton: Ice&FireTiger, please keep name calling to yourself or you can exchange PM's with the person, but do not post them on this message board. Thanks.

    i'm sorry, but even if Thabeet played for the Tigers i'd clown on him. He was awful for UConn. I watched PLENTY of Big East ball last few years (i ALWAYS have to defend myself here in Tucson when i say the Big East is the BEST basketball conference year n and out) and he was manhandled by way too many smaller 'PF's' in college. Blair destroyed him every time they met, because he had more heart. A 7'3 big man for one of the best coaches/teams in the country will get the numbers he got in college. Doesn't mean it will translate to the league.

    Haddadi gives it 1000% when he's on the court. I saw this in summer league play and its noticeable now. Neither he nor Thabust is a great player, but Haddadi has that edge that Thabeet might never be able to say is a consistent part of his game.

    I think we should hire Dikembe to teach Thabeet (how to use those 'bows)

    Muhahaha! The Wizards don't get to do that anymore so it's hard for them to win games that turn into a shootout.

    I'd be fine with that. I'm not sure Hollins is the right guy for the job. He hasn't developed any of the bench players. That's on him.

    i don't think it all falls on Hollins. he does have assistants who probably play a more prominent role in the development of the secondary players as opposed to the Mayos and Gays (lol, sorry)

    I think you're sellin Hollins a little short. He seems to be one of the main factors of getting these guys to buy into the team concept. I'm not too fond over his obsession with MC Jr., but MC has thrived under him so i ain't complainin too much
