    How much longer will D-Will be satisfied with coming off the bench behind Shaun Livingston to not disrupt the chemistry of the teams winning, also will D-Will realize the team only goes as far as Joe Johnson takes them?

    The Boston Celtics gave up on Jordan Crawford for what reason when Rondo may be out the door as well?

    How many more times will we see the Bulls let a solid backup PG walk in Free Agency only to repeat the cycle, last year it was Nate Robinson this year will it be D.J. Augustin?

    Will Joe Dumars make the necessary steps to acquire the right pieces if Greg Monroe so happens to be the man out will Stuckey be thrown in with the Blockbuster deal as well?

    What happens when contract negotiations come up for Lance Stephenson in Indiana?

    Star rookie to 6th man to star player on Dallas back to bench player in Milwaukee. Do we officially close the book on the O.J. Mayo saga?

    We all know Kevin Love is the best rebounding PF in the game but does he become the highest paid ever in the CBA era?

    Will adding 15-20 lbs. be the difference between Anthony Davis becoming the most dominate skilled all around big on both ends of the floor?

    Does Austin Rivers need a change of scenerey or Eric Gordon out the way to become the player that we all fell in love with coming out of HS?

    KD is having the performance of his career this year and with that being said, it is without Westbrook in the lineup. Has Reggie Jackson and Jeremy Lamb done enough as role players to make you think they are better off without Westbrook in the lineup as well?

    Just when will LaMarcus Aldridge stop being criminally underrated?

    Can we just call Rudy Gay a Superstar for once and for all?

    What will it take for DeMar DeRozan to just snap and tap into the raw dominate wing I know he can be?

    How many more years of John Wall’s career will be a breeze if he continues to dish the ball out at a high rate with a low turnover ratio and will he ever get a jump shot that will make defenders respect him?

    Will Melo in D.C. be enough to compliment what’s already there to make the Wizards a team to compete against the Heat or Pacers?

    _______________

    What happened to the Wiggins supporters, it appears as if everyone was just riding the highs of the wave and now that Embiid shot up no one really raves as much?

    How good will Jabari Parker look in a throwback Magic pinstripe, no really?! (Fingers crossed)

    When can people accept the fact that Marcus Smart will not be the pure PG you want him to be but he makes up for his flaws with leadership and on the defensive end?

    How disappointed will you be if Dante Exum turns out to be fools gold?

    Who besides me would not be suprised if Gary Harris turns out to be the best rookie in his class?

    1. Williams will be starting sooner than later. Kidd knows he will not be content coming off the bench but he must accept a more supportive role rather than being so ball dominant.

    2. Ping Pong balls.

    3.When PG is your best player you don’t want to spend big money on a backup. Now hopefully Rose stays healthy finally because DJ is likely gone.

    4.Who knows what Dumars will do…he screwed up the Pistons like 3 different times now.

    5. Lance wants to stay and Bird is going to offer him a nice contract.

    6. Yes….until he gets traded again and starts averaging 19 a game.

    7.Who cares.

    8. Yes he is already a top 10 NBA player.

    9. Nobody I knew fell in love with Rivers.

    10.Lamb and Jackson are better without Westbrook for sure…but not the Thunder.

    11. It has already happened this season.

    12. No never…and I am a Rudy Gay fan.

    13. A consistent jumpshot.

    14.Huh and no.

    15. No. The Heat and Pacers are elite defensive teams…the Wiz are not..especially with Melo.

    16.Wiggins is what we thought he was…which would have been #1 pick but Embiid is much better than we thought.

    17. That is a bit personal.

    18. Accepted. Smart might only the be the 5th or 6th best prospect this draft but he still can be really good.

    19. Very. I think he is legit and a top 4 lock at this point.

    20. I would be stunned. Harris will be a good NBA player. He could average 18 a game and even make an all star team eventually. However there are many other guys who are much higher ceiling prospects and you are pretty much saying none of them will pan out if Harris is the best in this class.

       Bravo sewok, good answer to everything.  Now riddle me this: how did how Johnson make the all star team over  Stephenson, Lowry, and afflalo?  I wasn’t aware he was even having a good season.  Isn’t he averaging like 16 ppg?

         The only case I could make for him is he’s the only starter (and the only other player besides andray blatche) to show any consistency through the season, has been their go to guy during an important winning streak, and I think he’s hit two or three game winning buzzerbeaters this season. Probably not enough to actually warrant his selection, but I think that’s the criteria they used.

    He shouldn’t have made it. He made it as a result of the coaches who voted not really paying attention to whats going on in the league. This is his worst scoring year since he was 21 years old and playing in Phoenix. He has had some huge games and lately both he and the Nets are playing better however the other 3 guys you mentioned are more deserving based on their bodies of work this season. This is just another case of name recognition ruling the All-Star rosters.

    1. D-Will will be back in the lineup soon.kidd jus had him coming off it cus he recently hurt his ankle. also,this team wil go as far as both players take them,not jus Joe.the Nets need BOTH of their max players to play at a high level.

    2.Tanking.

    3.well,in the bulls defense,they expected to have Rose again at full strength so they planned on having  Rose/Hinrich at PG with developing Marquis Teague(their 1st round pick,who they traded a few weeks ago) off the bench,didnt work out like that but i see why they let Nate go.

    4.monroe value is diminshed due his contract and evryone knowing he’s on the block.at this point,coming away wit anything average is a plus.Dumars has fcked that team up.time for him to go.

    5.depends.he’s going to demand around $10m a year money. do the Pacers plan on going past the luxury tax or not?? 

    6.he’s out of shape right now and is in a bad enviroment out in Mil. Dallas had a good coach & locker room to keep him in line.

    7.no

    8. Yes but i dont want him to get too much weight. i dont want his agility and explosiveness get hindered due to too much weight gain. But alittle more weight/muscle will help him hold his on in man to man defense down in the paint.he’s already a star player in the league

    9. not a fan of his game. 

    10.no,the thunder need westbrook to make/&win the finals. only ignorant fans think thunder are better off without him.

    11.he’s getting his praise right now.

    12  Lmfao Rudy gay is NOT a superstar. Have you forget how much he stunk up the joint in Toronto?? you simply cant win with a player like him being your 1st or 2nd option.

    13.consistency in every part of his game

    14.Wall jumper has improved this year and i expect it to keep improving.He should be starting in the All Star Game this year.

    15.in the weak East , Yeah LOL.

    16.I still love his game and believe he should be the 1st player taken in the next draft.

    17.im not a Fan of his game. His chubby ass will make the throwback unis look horrible,which is a hard thing to do since those jerseys are great. 

    18.i think scouts and GMs already accepted that,and they still love him.Potential and development,key words in NBA drafts

    19.i’ve never seen him play so not much. i’d jus trust overseas players even less.

    20.Me. he looks solid,but not great size and not elite athleticism. he looks like he’s going to be a solid two way player though.

    1. Not long, D-Will will be starting soon enough.

    2. Tanking

    3. I think the bulls will end up keeping him

    4. Who knows with Dumars, he is the worst GM in the league, but I could see Stuckey and Monroe going together.

    5. I think he will get around 4 years, 48 mil (give or take a million or 2, will not get max). 

    6. I think we should close the book on him ever being an allstar, maybe on the right team he could develop into a solid 6th man.

    7. Yes, Love will get ALOT of money…

    8. Wouldnt put it past him

    9. I have no faith left in Rivers whether or not Gordon leaves

    10. No, this is a ridiculous question

    11. I think he is starting to gain the recognition he deserves, he should be starting over Love in the ASG, but hey, the fans vote…

    12. Definitely not, and never lol

    13. Improve his shooting, defense, versatility, which I think he has been doing well season after season.

    14. His assist to turnover is not necessarily great (nothing compared to CP3), and I think he will eventually improve his shot, but his ability to penetrate will suffice for the time being.

    15. No, I think they need a big man with a good post game (Greg Monroe possibly) and a good defensive center to allow them to compete against the top in the east.

    16. They seem to come and go, just like how Embiid’s came once he started playing well.

    17. He would look good

    18. I have already accepted that it is unlikely that he will be a pure point, but you never know. Even if he doesn’t alot of pg’s nowadays are not pure points.

    19. Honestly, would not be surprised. I have never been too high on him, but maybe I have not seen him play enough

    20. I doubt it, but I think he could end up being top 5 of the class.
