Rondo and Chandler have more points than Dirk and Monta.

It's the effects of the strategy that was used effectively against the celtics in the KG-Pierce-Ray era when both Rondo and Perk were on the floor together. When you have two non-shooters out there with 3 great scorers, you cheat off the two non-shooters and force them to beat you. It's working tonight for the Suns.

I just think Dirk, Parsons and Ellis are just missing their shots and even in the KG-Pierce-Ray they still were a fomidable team. They never lost a playoff series with two non shooters (Perkins and Rondo) after all.  ;)

Yeah, it worked out ok for us, but I remember some really ugly nights and I think it cost us a 2nd title in that era. Cant complain though, I loved those seasons. It looks very familiar when looking at this Mavs team though, and Chandler and Dirk right now are no KG and Pierce back in their 2008 forms.

Ellis has the worst +/- at -18. He's 3-13. He was also the one on Dragic. I say this to possibly avert any irrational Rondo reactions, but it is interesting that they're getting blown out in their second straight game. Might be indicative of future issues, might not be. Whatever it is..Dallas need to figure it out.

Neither Monta nor Rondo are good defenders. That backcourt was born to be abused.
It's looking that way. Schroder torches Rondo and now Dragic is taking it to them. At least Bledsoe had a bad game.

Every team has ugly nights and It was mostly Perkins injury that did them in. The Mavs, may not have KG, Pierce or Ray, but they have formidable players. They'll figure it out.

Wow, the Kobe-less Lakers are off to a great start against the 23-3 Warriors.

So..... If the Lakers win this game, I wonder if Laker fans will treat Kobe the way Celtic fans treat Rondo.....

What a Christmas present for 76ers fans - they beat the Heat in Miami with Wade, but more importantly, score 91 points, so everyone gets half off their pizza tomorrow!  Woot woot! ;) ::) ;D

Who was Rondo guarding tonight?  I assume it was Dragic, because he shot so well, lol. ;D

At this point I think that jerk-off who calls himself 'Swaggy P' can do everything Kobe does, maybe slightly better.
