I thought that under Brown, the bench would flourish...boy I was wrong

The fact that Goudelock & Ebanks aren't part of the rotation pisses me off.
I don't understand why Brown gives Blake, who have totally lost all confidence, so much playing time. He can't shoot, or more like he is afraid to shoot. He pretty much went back to old predictable self.
Give Goudelock atleast a few minutes, and he'd definitely shoot or drive

Edit: Oh, and the bad blood between Blake and Cousins is awesome.
There are some truth to what Demarcus says. But Blake plays it cool

What a nice OT win for the Knicks today. Still they should have never lost that big lead in the first place.

He is still a Maverick, but he'll just be listed as inactive.
I know Kobe wants him back, but I wonder who would gamble on him

Odom deserves better, but so are the Mavs

It was a gamble that didn't pay off for the Mavs. Odom is to blame as well but he will be bought out for 2.4 million to void the last year of his deal and be a FA next season.

If he goes for the vets minimum, then maybe the Lakers might go after him.

Well, with Lamar, that gave the lakers one hell of a front line. i would want him back also if i was Kobe. Odom is more of a half court player, thats why I never thought of him as a good fit in Dallas.

Looks like Odom has bigger things to focus on. Like his wife.

Odom deserves better? He asked for a trade away from the Lakers and he got sent to the defending champions and gets paid millions of money for doing nada. Odom deserves to be criticized just as much as Dwight does.

Kobe and several players might want him back but does management want him? Guy is way too emotional and seems more focused on that idiot reality show. Still, he is way better than anyone on the Lakers bench, even with his hot/cold streaks.

And Odom for vets minimum? Thats roughly 300,000. You know there is no way his wife would allow that.

Hahaha true those Kardashians are money grabbers.

If not either LA team, then eithr Miami or one of the New York teams next season since those cities are Kardashian/TV friendly markets.

Mohammad Akkari 113 points in Lebanese Basketball Championship April 3, 2012 - YouTube!

Shit! even Bynum can score 113 (mostly 3s) if no one plays DEFENSE

As for Odom, I'd say he should swallow his pride and go back the the Lakers for vets minimum. If he thinks he's more than that ammount, then there is no helping him. That would probably spice up his TV show : Khloe & the jobless Lamar

Spurs are so smooth as the big three are out tonight resting.
