Ok we should trade Nene.

Is this some sort of coaching strategy - leaving the other team's best player who is on an incredibly hot shooting night - or are the players just kind of dumb?

I wanted to smash my TV after that miss...What do you think we can get for him if we were to trade him?

Same bull perimeter defense we have seen the last 5+ years. If the players are too stupid to play a zone then maybe htey should try playing some man defense. Or is that what they are trying to do now? I can't tell because they keep **** it up too badly.

Portlands G's destroyed ours tonight, kinda funny that 2 of them used to be Nuggets...

Out rebounded and out assisted equals out scored....damn

Exactly what I thought this game. Nene gets outplayed but low competition all the time. He had trouble with some rookie out of Arizona State tonight... He puts up 9/3 against pendergraph and juwan howard. where is petbull now?

its probably too late to trade him for somebody but we really need some consistent post offense. melo is all we've got, otherwise we just rely on jumpshots and fastbreak dunks.

at this point i'd gladly trade him for marc gasol (not that memphis would agree to that). i hope the front office stops working on karl's extension and starts figuring out how to make this team into a true contender.
