    It would need to be a rotating seat so Jackson could see further on down the court. Spare no expense, it has to be realistic.

    At least for me it will be nice to see the Lakers "run" other teams on offense (if the old dudes can pull it off) instead of getting ran by them all the time. Even under Phil the Lakers defense wasn't that great too many times to me.

    I know Phil has won 11 rings, but I never was a big fan of the Triangle Offense and thought it became outdated. The Lakers were playing a structured offensive game while the opponents were "comin at em", runnin them all over the court. Will be good to see them put more offensive pressure on teams. We'll see about the defense, but I think they'll be ok, at least D. Howards an upgrade from Bynum on D.

    Also, been waiting years to see Kobe in a less structured offense.

    Even though the Pistons blow come the second half of any game, it's so fun watching the rookies we've picked over the years start doing great things.

    I just wish we amnesty Charlie V.

    They called it the greatest discovery in human history. The civilizations of the galaxy call it...

    Knicks look good, shows you what some coaching and continuity can do.

    And on the seventh day, God rested. Having created the heavens and the Earth, the seas and all they contain, He ceased all labors. But the seventh day being a Sunday, and with all of His fantasy teams playing, He needed a shortstop. So God created Derek Jeter, and blessed him, and said unto him, be fruitful. And Jeter was good. Jeter held dominion over opposing pitchers (.343 AVG in 2006), was plentiful in power (14 HR and 97 RBIs), and moved over the earth (34 steals) and across home plate (118 runs). And God blessed Jeter, and sanctified him, and said to Roto owners everywhere, make Jeter your No. 1 middle infielder.

    He might not, if anything he will keep his mouth shut as long as the team is playing well.

    Pau is a ****ing idiot, I have no clue why he didn't call timeout.

    Great game, but he's gotta play better. 11 or 12 points isn't gonna do it. He spends way too much time on the perimeter.

    So I was looking at NBA team salaries in case things don't work out with Dwight Howard in LA. Good teams with cap room:

    • Philadelphia 76ers
    • Atlanta Hawks
    • Dallas Mavericks
    • Houston Rockets
    • San Antonio Spurs
    • Los Angeles Clippers

    17 Turnovers, just unacceptable.
