i was suprised by james..he had some pretty nice moves in the post

Completing the triad--- need more conditioning. All these guys need a weight trainer. They should go on the Biggest Loser. They could make it a special edition. Include Mo T for fun.

Curry was awful again thou.

Curry must have drawn 8 fouls over the course of the game. He needs more conditioning and FT practice, but "awful" is a tremendous overstatement.

Curry is getting back into shape. I've said this before and I'll say this again: this team won't be special until Curry and Frye learn to play together, and Marbury and Craw learn how to play with them. Imagine a close game in the 4th quarter and Curry is cooking in the post, Frye is hitting from the perimeter, Craw and Marbury have single coverage on the perimeter. That will be a special team.

what is outstanding talent--a 35 inch vertical leap and 7-1? butler has VERY good hands very good fundamentals
he catches the ball, he's very smooth and soft at the basket--hes strong and can rebound in traffic, he may be 6-9 or so, but he has long arms that compensate for lack of height. hes not flashy, but if this cat gets 14 FGA's hes taken down 8 of them with 8+ rebounds with the PT once he gets rolling. I would definitely cater to LOCKING up Jackie Butler LONG term WAY before Ariza.

He has a nice touch around the rim and a good nose for the ball, but I'll have to see more from him before I'm convinced he could get something like 16+ppg consistently, on 57% shooting no less. He does have skills but I don't know if he'll be anything like a go-to scorer in his career.

But yeah, at this point if I had to let one or the other go, I think I'd let Ariza go as well. Still early in the season though, things can change, but Butler seems to just have a better grasp and more well rounded game for his position than Ariza does for his.

JB doesn't have much of an outside shot, does he? Things could get crowded with him and Curry or James under the rim. They are kind of big bodies.

Butler rocks. Frye is amazing. Curry will come around. James might be useful. Lee needs more run. There a comment on every big we should keep. Dispose of the rest.

Fellas, seriously, James and Curry have to get in shape before you can start accurately judging them. Curry is a shell of the player he will become when he gets in shape and JJ will be more then servicable as well. Give them some time...
"It was good," Curry said. "I killed Malik, Jerome. The usual suspects. It felt good."

I agree. The ingredients are there to be mixed. Once Starbury and Crawdaddy (and Nate) remember to look for Frye, and Curry, good things will happen. They can get mismatches, like the Giants get with Shockey and Plax!

yeah I like Jackie, he has shown some good play, but on the offense he needs to handle the ball better, develop some moves and a nice jump shot, then he will be a much better player.

I agree. He is playing well enough to deserve some minutes. That playing time is helping his game.

we just need to move davis for a SF like Ruben Patterson--maybe if Miles is not hurt that bad--we go ahead make that trade while he is hurt--if its not microfracture--and put Ruben in at SF and work Darius back in--Im sure Portland may reconsider

at the very least couldnt they use mo t?:>) for blake and Patterson?:>)

BRIGGS, what do you think of Qyntel Woods?

BRIGGS, what do you think of Qyntel Woods?

He's got athletic talent, good size, hes dominated SLs, but has done nothing in the NBA that sticks out other than smoke dope and get him self in trouble in rather strange ways. I certainly would have him on a tight rope and wouldnt turn down releasing him if a nice deal comes our way where we need a roster spot. Hes got more offensive upside than Barnes, bt the negatives--hes going to have to pull his weight quickly on the court and basically practice and go to his room and shut up
