Kinda been a down year. Maybe the lockout has had an impact? Rudy Gay has played well and Kemba's enjoying a solid rookie year (enjoying might be a little optimistic being in Charlotte). Ray's been injured and has been up and down. Rip and Emeka have missed most of the season. Caron's struggled. Ben had one great game. CV hasn't played. Hash and AJ haven't done much. Does anyone know what's going on with CV? It would be nice to see Ben Gordon return to the form of his Chicago days. Too bad the Pistons have a dearth of combo guards. Hopefully JL and AD can inject some life into the UConn NBA fraternity.

Ray Ray going to win his 2nd title this year :)

Going to edge out RIP in the Eastern Conference Semi's and beat Caron for the Championship

that's all that matters to me when viewing the NBA. (well that and wanting the Heat to lose)

Kemba going to be very very good

I just wish Kemba didn't have to go to a horribly bad team. He's played pretty well but his team is awful. Better luck next year kemba.

Yeah, I feel for him. You know he'll be fine. I just hope Charlotte can surround him with some talent soon.

If they get the first pick they Might have Anthony Davis and Kemba playing together. That would be interesting to watch.

I would like that. As was posted last week, the worst team usually doesn't end up with the top pick. They could (should?) trade half the team, hell, trade everyone but Kemba, Augustine, and Biyambo.

It's bad when you lose to the Celtics by double digits and they don't play Pierce, Garnet, or Allen. There's also been a CV sighting. 13 points in 20 minutes. BG had 9 points in 29 minutes, took I believe 5 shots. They were a plus. 35 minutes for Stuckey (-16) and 38 for Knight(-11). Stuckey took 19 shots and scored 32 points. BG needs to be on a team with a true point guard where he could start at the 2 and have the green light.

We're actually in a weird spot where pretty much zero fan bases currently like their UConn players (with some extenuating circumstances). Memphis would like Rudy a little more if he wasn't making max money, Celtics fans are ready to develop the younger talent and appreciate Ray, but would prefer he be put out to pasture, and Bobcats fans haven't warmed up to Kemba yet (due to his shooting woes). Butler was more liked in Washington, Ben more liked in Chicago, and Rip's Detroit situation fell apart.

agreed... if they don't get him talent, he should get his stats and game up a lot and be a great trade value or pick up as a FA

Yeah, something we're not used to.
