Should never had got the job in the first place.
Interesting what they doing with Howard....compared to Bogut,
both coming off serious injuries and major surgery.
Lakers are opting to play him as much as possible,
while the Warriors are limiting Bogut to 20 minutes a game and resting him when they play back-to-back games.
And is actually being rested for the next 7-10 games....taking it very slowly with the A-Bog.
What's with this +/- (team net points while player is in game) stat the NBA use??
Makes no sense to me.

If you know what it is, it's a great stat for basketball to show how influential a player in a game is.
It shows the difference of points the team achieved (scored - scored against) during the time the player was on court.
So if a player finished the game -10, his team was outscored by 10 points while he was on the court.....kapeesh.

Yeah I kapeesh, but it's not a realistic way to measure player performance. Just a bit of luck involved in it IMO.
TigerForce said:
Yeah I agree there, 4 other teammates on the court so not really a fair individual assessment.
I prefer.... Player efficiency rating (PER).

It was a strange turn of events.
Majority of the players endorsed Phil,
and Phil Jackson himself said he would return to the Lakers if the negotiations between the team and his agent went as expected.
Apparently Jackson said he was stunned when told that D'Antoni got the job.
D'Antoni did a good job at Phoenix but the defensive was ordinary,
they had a stack of outside shooters that would sometimes leave Steve Nash as the only guy in the lane.
D'Antoni's biggest asset is offense..but it's the D that's the problem....ranked 18th there.
We'll see...
Massive coup for the Melbourne Tigers signing Johnny Flynn....6th pick in the 09' draft....he was just about my favorite college baller outside of Blake Griffin.
He's too good for the NBL though.

Bucks are going better than expected....equal 3rd best record in the East, they have had a reasonable draw thus far though.
We'll claim him!!!

Wow that is impressive.
108 shots he had....most teams usually only have about 85 :hihi
Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 in an NBA which I find remarkable.
