Lazy...

Ray Allen - 966
Dirk (Basketball Jesus) Nowitzki - 865

Mea Culpa on the insult. I apologize unreservedly and profusely.

According to that argumentation Ray must have a higher ppg than Dirk...

Here you have the whole stats:
Dirk: 865 GP / 22.9 PPG / 22.5 Points per 36 minutes
Ray: 966 / 20.7 / 20.1

If you don't count Dirk's rocky rookie season, he has averaged 23,7 ppg so far... that's pretty remarkable.

Hmm..another thought on RC playing such a tight rotation. One thought could be kicking the spurts asses while they are down. In other words racking up the wins while the spurts are sputtering. Once (if) the spurts get it together you've got a big enough cushion to still play other players.

Note: I still think he is trying to get a cohesive 8, but since I'm kinda tanked, I thought I would throw it out there.

He has been as useless as tits on a boar hog.

Terry has an awful year but Barea still sucks.

Just watch the last games +/- of Barea:
Thunder: 0
Hornets: 0 (and he had 10 points more than the 2nd best Mavs scorer)
Bobcats:-4
Heat blowout: 10 (every other starter 20+)

Yes, he is playing more with the benchmob than Terry but he is a main reason why our bench almost always blows a lead. He just cant lead a team. Its wild running, wild driving with throwing bad passes (the old Marbury way) etc...

Hahah, should have been a freshman at Cal, until the Nelson's saw him.
