Wait how do we absolve Q Rich of his deficiencies but get on others like Curry, Marbury and James for theirs. He was indeed hurt but he was also overweight which didn't help his injury. He did no better defending his man than say Marbury defending the point or Curry defending the middle. Curry or Marbury held their own defensively on more than one occassion but we still give them the bad rap.

To each his own. If you think Curry and Marbury played as good as D as Q, more to you

Martin, come on, you know my point is that they all played bad D at their respective position including Crawford at the 2 guard. I just think Q is given a free ride in the blame department.

I am not giving Q a free ride. He was playing hurt. I thought that even with his back condition he played OK D.

Lemme Upgrade You (on defense)

Marbury > Duhon = improvement on defense

Crawford > Richardson = see above, with a bigger butt to post-up

Richardson > The Mayor = inexperienced but with better size and better quickness, when the knee is 100% healthy, watch out below

Randolph > Harrington = "there's no place like home... there's no place like home..."

Lee > Jeffries = you can never have too many of those glue guys

Marbury > Nate = enjoy California Steph

Curry > Tim Thomas = see "Harrington" above

LivingLegend - we're talking about The Mayor here.

I find it difficult to be disappointed in a virtual rookie seeing consistent minutes for the first time in his NBA career. Don't hate the 2-12, hate all the family members and homeboys begging for free tickets.

I can't be disappointed in Gallinari not playing if it means he corrects the problem and returns without causing more damage to his psyche.

Seeing them on the floor together will be a beautiful thing. I can wait.

I hear you on Wilson -- but NOTE I never mentioned Wilson's shooting as a dissapointment. I mentioned his defense lacking on occasion and that sometimes he doesn't attack the boards like he can. I love Wilson (really a favorite of mine because the guy just looks like a stud muffin). I expect him to really improve over time and I'm excited that he's doing as well as he is at such a young age. Thanks to Zeke for reaching on this pick.

Vote Early and Often

LivingLegend - great summry of your stance on the issues. You must understand that as The Mayors former Campaign Manager, and Press Secretary since 2007, that we take these matters of public information seriously.

Let me also add that Mr. Chandler is thankful for the recent outpouring of support from his constituents and intends to follow up on the promises he made during the campaign. The Mayor is commited to representing the people, fixing the economy and getting back on defense.

That Mayor thanks your for your support.
