I am guessing that Charlotte's winning streak is in some jeopardy

WOW did not realise Charlotte was 4 and 3...................

KW and MKG with Haywood Mullins and Biyombo tag teaming at C has been working out.

Damn congrats to them. Plus they have Detroits pick next draft i believe?
And their own. Should be good for them.

Lottery protected. And right now it looks like that's a damn good thing. It is top 8 protected in 2014, so if Detroit's core develops as one would hope (at the least Monroe/Drummond) they'll have the 2014 pick.

Anyway on another note, how the hell does this happen:
On a night where New Orleans only lost by 4 to Milwaukee... Anthony Davis went 10-14 FG, 8-9 FT, with 11R, 28P... He had a -17. Which was by far the worst on his team. That goes beyond an off-night on defense, he must have been downright napping on D, to be that much of a negative effect when no one else was. Anybody watch it?

It is so easy to see why guys love playing for Popovich. Aside from the winning... he has 3 superstars that have bought into short minutes to rest in-season, and he takes advantage to get so many guys so many minutes. Good players go there, and play their asses off all the time knowing they're going to get a lot more burn than they usually would on a great team. Who else gives Boris Diaw the heaviest minutes on a top playoff team on any night? And he's busting his tail for it. That team is always greater than the sum of its parts.
