Another Blowout Loss...

And yet, Vinny still has a job. It just doesn't make any sense. The team can't score a hundred points against two of the worst defenses in the league (GS and TOR) and they don't defend worth a shit giving up almost 100 per game. So let's see, you can't score, and you can't defend. And your telling me this has nothing to do with coaching? Seriously, make the fucking move, the team can't get any worse with Bernie Bickerstaff and maybe you can bring in a guy like Avery Johnson, Lawrence Frank, or Sam Mitchell before the end of the year and still salvage this season and have a shot at a solid FA in the summer of 2010!!!

Other Notes:

Under no circumstances will T-Mac ever play for the Houston Rockets. I'm very excited to see how this all plays out. My guess is T-Mac will be shopped and will either be traded for one young average player and expiring contracts or he will be bought out for less money after the trade deadline passes. Either way, you can write it down, there is no chance he suits up for Houston.

Yes the Lakers are one of the two best teams in the League, but let's all calm down with the talk of them dominating night in and night out. They've played 17 home games already, by far the most of any team. Last night they started their first road trip of the season, and oh by the way, they lost in Utah. So yes, they are a great team, but they're not going to win 70 games and it's not a forgone conclusion that they win the title.

I love the Mavericks and even though there is no chance they win it all this year, I love it that they're going for it. The offseason moves may hurt them in 2 years, but this year they are a great team to watch. Lots of ball movement, good defense, and the first open shot is rarely passed up. It's the way the game should be played. I think the Mavs can beat everyone in the West with one exception...The Lakers. The only way the Mavs can beat the Lakers is if Josh Howard turns back the clock and dominates both defensively and offensively like he did when the Mavs went to the Finals and lost to the Referees and D-Wade. Which sadly isn't going to happen.

I've watched Miami play a few times this year, and I can't help but think it would be in their best interests to trade Michael Beasley...for the right player. At this point everyone has to think Chris Bosh is leaving Toronto, so if your Miami why not offer Beez, Haslem, Diawara, and a first rounder for Bosh. Toronto would be silly not to take this because there is no way they will get a better deal for a rental. And all this talk about a sign trade in the off season is silly. Bosh will hold all the cards at that point, and why would he agree to a trade that would gut the team he is going to? It just doesn't make any sense. If Toronto continues to suck, the Raps should trade him because they are capped out, and that team isn't going anywhere without some major moves. Getting Beasley, expiring contracts, and a first rounder would count as a major move. Hell you could even expand the deal and make the Heat take Hedo for O'Neal and then buy O'Neal out! The possibilities for the Raps are endless, but only if they make a move before the deadline! As for the Heat, if they bring in Bosh, they can sign him to the max six year deal and he would definitely take a lot of pressure off of Wade. That pairing would have a chance at a title for as long as their together. The rest of the team barely matters.
