For the life of me, I don't know why you guys continue to argue with KobehastheMagic or AndrewBynum17. (amongst a couple others)

Glad your first game went so well, dude! I was sitting next to a Bulls fan in the nosebleeds. He was not happy.

I was sitting in the Premier Section 11 (A friend splits season tickets with a couple of people), and there was a Bulls fan in front of us. It was really funny because she still thought that they could pull a comeback, even when they were down by 20.

And there were fans behind us who kept blaming the wrong guy for mistakes. When Kobe would throw a bad pass, they would yell "Come on LO what are you doing"

Which is what?


Sasha will perform better than normal when you put him in the game when we are either up 20, or down 20.


LMAO or , I don't know which one to do.

Without the all-NBA defense, size, rebounding, and court vision. Yeah, other than that, he's way better than Kidd!

Don't get me wrong. I love Farmar's game. I definitely think he should be getting the majority of minutes at PG, if not starting outright. However, let's not compare him to an all time great just yet.


I agree - I don't see J-Kidd in his game. I actually think he's starting to look like a young Tony Parker. He's even getting that tear drop fallling, he penetrates at will, he seems much quicker and faster this year than ever before. Just a lot about his game looks like that to me.

Either way, our young guys are making sure they don't get traded - and they're doing it be bringing their potential to the court and getting the job done, while still having so much more upside relative to their youth.

No one would except KobehastheMagic


Nope...never wanted Ben Wallace for him. kwame provides a poor man's Ben Wallace. I still want a good two way player like Ron Artest for him.


Over the next couple months it will become painfully obvious that your evaluation of AB was slightly off.


It's already obvious. Heck, I think it's even obvious to him, but he just won't admit it.

No one in their right mind would trade away a double-double big man whose 20 years old, for a freakin SF who has been a cancer on every team he's ever been on. Heck, people wouldn't make that trade even if he had never been a cancer, because it's a stupid trade.

I don't think Farmar's first step is that great, which will prevent him from being as effective a penetrator as TP. However, his end-to-end speed is fantastic. Once he gets a head of steam (takes him 2-3 steps as opposed to 1), he's seemingly as fast as anyone in the game...

I'd rather him get posterized trying to prevent a dunk, than running out of the way in fear that he'll be posterized. One of those scenarios is about a guy focusing on helping his team win, the other is about a guy being more converned with ego.

I choose the winning mentality, even if it's embarrassing on occasion.

That's fair enough.

Thing I like about Farmar is how well he moves without the ball. Most PG's (including TP) seem to stop moving a lot of the time when they don't have the rock.

Farmar is also turning into a nice rebounder with those hops.

Yeah, Farmar is not quite as quick on the first step, but he has an amazing burst near the rim. His stats are very similar to TP's stats at the same age (19):

TP PPG 9.2, RPG 2.6, APG 4.3, Steals 1.2, TOs 1.9, 41.9 FG%, 29.4 MPG
JF PPG 9.6, RPG 3.2, APG 2.8, Steals 1.2, TOs 1.2, 48.5 FG%, 20.8 MPG

Jordan is a better shooter, scorer, but with less assist and TOs because he doesn't have the duties of a traditional PG. And Jordan is doing it coming off the bench (TP started) playing about 70% of the minutes TP did - 8.6 MPGs less.
