"you need to train you brain all the time... Are you?"

arkrud - I keep my brain trained by raining pearls like aspirin on your obvious pain

does that make me insane or worthy of your distain, or can you even remember when the Mets first baseman was nicknamed The Krane?

This is my mission to keep you brain working.

so arkrud, with all that being said, and based on your left and right basketball brains:

Can The Mayor play the two?

Why let your personal bias get in the way of some rational, original, creative, level-headed basketball discussion?

How about you answer your own question first?

You couldn't have spoken any clearer.

I hope you find your way out of your dungeon soon.

Crawford should be playing the point anyway w/Mardy backing him up... Nate's game isn't conducive to ball distribution
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

TMS - I dig the fact Marbury was held out of the Nets game to facilitate the opportunity for Jamal at the point. I don't trust Marbury's knees any more than I trust Q's back and the coaches are closer to their condition than any of us.

For some players, these pre-season runs are auditions for spots. For others, it could be a showcase. For the rest it is minutes. Yes, defense is critical but defensive cohesion comes with familiarity - and the return of Balkman won't hurt.

Nobody is primarily concerned with the won-loss record. You play to win the game but Nobody is losing any sleep today over the Boston or Nets games any more than the 76ers or Maccabi games.

I expect another "shift change" for the next game to get Lee untracked and Mardy Collins is on deck.

They're born, along with a basketball.

LB invented point guards.
Sh-t in the popcorn to go with sh-t on the court. Its a theme show like Medieval times.

Q. dj - are point guards made or born?

A. Both. If the baby comes out with his head up and eyes wide open, he's definately point guard material. If he hits you in the face with a squeezetoy - while looking at his bottle - hire an agent.

Actually, I think Marbury still has the head to body ratio of a newborn.
That's one big head!

Fred Jones and his new shut down defense. At least he won't be getting posted up constantly.

Nate takes a huge step with Boston game as point guard to be trusted

The Summer League maturation process could be a work in progress after all

Nate has skills. Can he keep his mind right?

I’m way better,” he said. “I’m more focused. Everything’s coming so much easier to me. I’m just slowing everything down. It’s kind of working out for the best.”

Nate once again for 20

It's only pre-season and it's only the Sixers but

if you can play two solid games in a row, you can play three...
