Guys lets remember that it took the Thunder a few years to build their team into a contender and IMO we are ahead of their pace right now.
We could use a lottery pick this year + one more big free agent PG and then we are set to go.
Yah I'm from Toronto and was around the basketball scene and I've seen Kobongo come up from his early highschool days.. I like him but I don't think hes anything more than a backup PG in this league.. I've seen him get his *** beat by Kevin Pangos and Corey Joseph more than a few times and Corey is now a 3rd stringer for the Spurs and Pangos is a Soph at Gonzaga.
We need some lob plays for Davis!

The biggest problem with the game was turnovers. regardless of the play of our guards, we limit our turnovers and we win this game.
Unfortunately, we can't pin it on a single thing. The Hornets did so many things wrong tonight. It was a combination of things like boxing out, allowing 16 offensive rebounds, turnovers, fouling, and poor defense all contributed to the lost. This is to be expected of a young team without their best player on the court.

Brandon Jennings 22 pts, 9 asts, 8-16 FG (+11); Monta Ellis 22 pts, 9 asts, 8-16 FG (-11). +/- is stupid.
Get outta here with that. Plus/minus shows the power of teamwork. I know you and dcoop want to be 'that guy' but after the game he had last night wasn't the night for it. Save your schtick for when he actually has a bad game. Last night wasn't that night. And he wasn't in double digits for 'several games in a row'. Sure, everyone in the starting lineup was minus against the Thunder but hey, they were getting their teeth kicked in from the jump. The guy has a good game and people are talking about plus and minus. Ridiculous.
We lost be double digits to Oklahoma and lost yesterday... obviously Davis as a starter is going to be in the -. The stat is worthless.... Joel Anthony had a great +/- last year... should that tell us that he is a great player?
Again +/- is only valuable for role player who player limited minutes or if you put in the context of 5 man units. It is an absolutely useless statistic which provides absolutely no valuable insight whatsoever.
Why do people continuously feed these trolls? They only grow larger.
