George Hill and Paul George were horrible last night with the rock...I'm still amazed that David West isn't getting the ball as often as he should in this matchup...


The Grizzlies are the better team, but Kevin Durant is the one player that can overcome that with his scoring...I still think the Grizzlies take that series...

I think the Grizz take it too....


I maintain that they could sneak up on Miami... Randolph and Gasol would own the paint in that series...

Aside from the fact that this should be the year of the kids. If anything, Webster should take Lackey's spot in the rotation.

But so long as he's pitching decently and the team is in first place, that's not going to happen. They really need him to stay healthy for another 5-6 starts and trade him for something useful for the future.

Agreed...

You think it's bad now? Wait until you see the logjam next year...Barnes and Ranaudo are both in AA right now...the way Ranaudo is pitching? It won't be long before he's in Pawtucket...and Barnes still has a higher ceiling than any other Sox pitching prospect, yes...including Webster...

Lackey will be traded, it's just a matter of building up some value so they can get a useful piece for him...

that stadium is a joke

its like a bunch of cubans threw up all over the place


That's what Miami is... A bunch of Cubans...


The team blows and the entire city is filled with fair weather fans... They don't sell out Heat games during a 27 game winning streak... No chance they fill a baseball stadium... it's just not happening. They needed to move that team, not build a new stadium.

They need to get rid of all the sports teams in Miami, not just the Marlins

Easily the worst sports city in the country. The second LeBron is gone, the Heat will be back to playing in front of empty arenas like their other Miami counterparts

Pathetic considering the size of the metro area

Oklahoma City beaches >>>>> Miami Beaches

Yup agreed on both fronts ... Oakland has to be drooling at that

The A's are an interesting possibility...


But I think MLB wants an AL rep in northern Cali....

Tampa would make sense too if they can't get a stadium deal...move that team to somewhere some fans might appreciate what they've done...

If Pitt loses to the Islanders, the East is the Bruins' to lose...


the guy who runs our cleaning room is a huge penguins fan, we talk hockey a lot

i told him be wary of fleury...the team goes as far as he goes...and if hes off his game even a little, theyre fucked

this may be like the penguins/flyers series last year

Word of advice, the Eastern Conference Playoffs is a horrible watch for people that don't enjoy basketball as much as other sports...If you can, catch the Western Conference games, more scoring and I would think less fouls called since they aren't playing much defense anyway...

Yeah..... I do.

NO....you don't...because I was literally calling for him to make the rotation when Dubrount showed up to camp out of shape...and I've never backed off from that...

Sure you're not misremembering Jackie Bradley who I repeatedly said wasn't ready?

Yeah... Regular ol' mid 90's Florida Marlins group of young arms with the Red Sox...

I still think the Thunder survive this series..... barely

Someone has to even remotely step up for the Thunder besides KD..... right?

The culture in Miami is just not conducive to filling stadiums and arenas.

Too much to do down there... Why go to a Marlins game?

Knicks fans chanting "Reggie sucks" at the Knicks game last night

Good stuff

Knicks celebrating like Brett Lawrie after hitting a single

Not good stuff
