    Bobcats also interested in Brendan Haywood. Mullens experiment over too?

    Who replaces Griffin on the roster if anyone? Davis?

    Davis got called to start participating immediately.

    I'm happy for him. I'm not glad that he got hurt, but I'm not a big Griffin fan. I'd rather see Davis on the squad.

    They need size so I doubt Mullens is going anywhere. Apparently he's been working out with the new coach already.

    Mullens does a lot on the perimeter. Haywood's an underneath big body...Bobcats had Diop the blob and an athletic young shot blocker but Haywood should fill that void. Mullens improved on rebounding and post defending....but he's not there yet. He's the Bobcats poor man's Dirk.

    Rockets might amnesty Scola. If they don't land Howard I don't know what they'll do. They have young talent, but unfortunately Aldemir, Jones, Leuer, Morris, Motejunas, Parsons, Patterson, Royce White - all drafted between 2010 and 2012, all play SF or PF.

    They literally have about 3 guards left on the roster and no PG.

    Anyone watching the USA/Puerto Rico exhibition? 5 to go in the 2nd, Durant with 5 3s.

    Yes. Very underwhelming performance by USA so far. I know they will win by 25+, but still.

    Too many 3's. They need to use their athleticism more and get to the hoop.
  • wildcats20
    Griffin is done til NBA training camp, most likely.
  • wildcats20
    NOW, we are starting to see the USA team I expected. Defensive pressure at 100% and out and running.

    Scottie says the Dream Team beats this team by 25.

    Just heard that, no way.

    Not by 25, but they do beat them.

    I'm not sure, it would be a close game imo. I would probably favor 92 but who are Magic and Bird going to guard? They were at the tail end of their careers and shells of themselves.

    Who's guarding D Rob, Ewing, Chuck and MJ?

    They will only play one big at a time, put Lebron on Charles, Kobe on MJ, Chandler on either Robinson or Ewing, whoever is in the game. Chandler doesn't need to score just rebound and play D and he can do both. If this team had Dwight healthy I might be inclined to pick them. Who the hell would guard guys like Durant and Westbrook off the bench, good luck Stockton lol

    Barkley said it best the only players on the team now that would have made the dream team would be lebron Kobe and Durant. The dream team played a tough physical style of basketball. I think they would beat this team by about 15-20

    I disagree, the game would be within 5, play a best of seven and it goes 6 or 7 imo.

    Griffin has a meniscus tear.

    Why is Bynum not playing this summer? Is he hurt?

    Because you have to be invited to play.

    You honestly think Chandler would be able to match up with David Robinson in his prime? LOL stop it with your nonsense.

    How the hell does he not get an invite? Anthony Davis does?

    Yes, Robinson isn't going to get 30 and 20, that's ridiculous to think that. This year's team is too athletic and versatile for that to happen.

    Bynum is a dbag. I'm sure everyone involved with the selection knew this.
