Looks like HBS for Gallinari.

T-Mac sighting! Wish I could be more amused by this, but I wonder how this will affect Ariza.

I'd like to think Mcgrady will help draw the defense away from him more (assuming Mcgrady is fully healthy and still a threat). Maybe we'll see a higher FG% and fewer turnovers from Ariza, that's what I'm hoping for at least.

1 half in the books and he has NO rebounds? Wow

Senator Urine looking at the bright side of something. Imagine that!

To answer your question Deejay, Carlos Arroyo is a VERY important person. He is the unofficial record holder for fewest TSNP ever in a game. Check out this box score from the historic night of 12/17/03.

I had Arroyo at the time, as did many others.

Kobe appears to have no problem with his finger, and Noah is giving his sellers the finger.

I have noticed that the return of Love seems to have helped a few of the T-wolves. I would expect the same for T-Mac. As SU mentioned, more defense on T-Mac (who is a decent passer) should put less D on some of the other Rockets. Since they don't play the same position it shouldn't matter. Also,when Ariza was in LA he got his stats as a reserve and a starter.

Oh man, the Arroyo / Lopez season. Was that the Flip Murray one too?

Glad I didn't have any trades to move to Hughes or Gallo. Yuck

That WAS the Flip Murray season, and Flip's was the most insane buying spree ever. The Sonics and Clippers opened the season with 2 games in Japan, then had 6 days off. Flip got off in both games and made crazy money every day of his 6 day break.

Flip stayed pretty hot, and I remembered trying to decide if it was worth 2 trades to get 5 games of some rookie named Dwyane Wade instead of 2 games of widely-owned Flip.

T-Mac never got back into the game so speculating on how he'll affect Ariza seems premature. Quite a game for Budinger though.......

They said before the game he would only play one 7 minute stint in the first half. I for one hope he destroys Arizas value. :)

Tell that to TSN, he's not in their database. :)
