haven't been able to watch any games yet - how has MKG looked this season 

 

You could easily make an argument that MKG has been the best player in both of the past two games. His defense is incredible. He shut down Melo and Rudy Gay. Both guys were very inefficient and got most of their points when Jeff Taylor was in for MKG.

 

He also has been fantastic on the fastbreak. I would love to see him get more postups too because he has made a lot of good moves.

Kemba was unquestionably the best player against the Knicks. No doubt about it. MKG himself would agree.

No doubt that Kemba's offense was great that game. But you just can't ignore MKG shutting down the reigning scoring champ. Melo scored 32 points on 28 shots. And most of those points came against Taylor. But like I said, you could argue it.

 

Either way, Kemba and MKG are no doubt the cornerstones of this franchise going forward. Hopefully Zeller (and Biz) can become part of that. Kemba and MKG are showing that they can be stars in this league.

I'm not as sold on MKG as others, but he did a great job defensively in that game.

I didn't participate in the game thread tonight because sportssouth and directv can't decide what the fug they want to do with the games apparently.

Everything blacked out one night. Next night I can only see it in standard def. The next night I can see the game in HD. Then I'm blacked out altogether again... smh... so pissed off. I hope they get it together.

Anyway, according to ESPN, we're in first place now, lol.

It was a fun game to watch last night, the arena wasn't very full but the people who were there were into the game.

 

Kemba didn't look like his usual self due to being banged up a bit in the NY game.

 

Hendo played like a starting NBA SG.

 

I'm liking Biyombo's intensity.  He is aggresive on the boards and even scores a little lol.

I think my favorite play is the one where Sessions dribbles around for 16 seconds then drives out of control, leaves his feet, and throws a cross court pass to nobody.

We run it about three times a game.

Smh

 

Teeray, watching that game last night, my post in the Knicks thread came to fruition the moment he entered the game.  Sessions is not a PG in my book, and he waits too damn long to make a decision, which is usually the wrong one.  Insists on driving everything to the hole and throwing something up.

 

I'm with you on the Pargo train.

Hansbrough sits on the bench for a team that lost to a team that starts mcroberts and Henderson.

 

God, my favorite thing about Hansbrough when he played for UNC was how pissed off other ACC fans got whenever you mentioned his name

 

Still puts a smile on my face seeing how salty yall are after all these years

Yes and it is the reason we won, the question is can he do it consistently, and history says no.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
    • I think google is confusing signing bonus with guaranteed money. If you get a guarantee of say $10 million, it doesn’t matter if the signing bonus is $5 or $8 million, it’s the $10 million number that affects the cap, as the signing bonus is always just a portion of the guaranteed money anyways. And again, I’ll admit I’m not 100% sure about it, but I’m pretty sure it is the case.
