Nope. The only person that runs more, plays less defense, and allows more shots than D'antoni is Nellie.

Rubio's not coming over for at least a year anyways. Flynn is a true PG though.

Yao Ming may miss entire season due to his foot injury...and it might possibly end his career.

:eek3:

Yep... and with T-Mac a shell of his former self, the Rockets are in trouble. They can't sustain a successful season with the rest of their players. Sure, they took LA to 7, but come on... they can't do that for 82 games.

Couldn't find the off season thread. I guess all that juice stopped working by the time he got to L.A. h:

NEW YORK -- All-Star forward Rashard Lewis of the Orlando Magic has been suspended without pay for 10 games for testing positive for an elevated testosterone level, the NBA announced Thursday.

"First and foremost I take full responsibility for the situation and accept the corresponding penalty," Lewis said in a statement released by the league. "Toward the end of the season I took an over-the-counter supplement which at the time I did not realize included a substance banned by the NBA.

"I apologize to Magic fans, my teammates and this organization for not doing the research that should come with good judgment."

The Orlando Sentinel reported that Lewis tested positive for DHEA, or dehydroepiandrosterone, a chemical compound banned by many sports leagues, including the NBA.

Lewis' suspension will cover the first 10 regular-season games for which he is eligible and physically able to play.

The 29-year-old Lewis averaged 19.0 points in the playoffs to help lead the Magic to the NBA Finals.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Nope. It's pretty much widely accepted that they wont do anything this year.
