SSP…catch me on 620 The Bull in the Bullpen with Chris Clark and Co. Always a good time.
Got some interesting mail on Durant/Texas. I was surprised by how many people defended Barnes. I have no idea who could watch that team and not think that Barnes hasn’t done a great job with that offense. He’s a good defensive coach. And?
Another interesting point of contention was D.J. Augustin. Is Augustin nasty? Absolutely. But I’m not letting assist totals blind what I see–he doesn’t make anyone better. Steve Francis has put up some nice assist totals in the NBA, but no one was better off for playing with him. Keep that in mind while you secretly pine for Augustin to run the point on your lottery-bound team.
Also, my man Rell raised a great question–does anyone know what Black Snake Moan is about?

Augustin’s biggest problem is that in the Texas O which has so few quick hitters and realible set plays he reverts to what most young scoring pgs do they over dribble in the hope they get a chance to beat their man 1 on 1. Barnes is hurting D.J.’s growth much more than he is hurting Durant’s.
From somewhere on the ‘Net:
Samuel L. Jackson is a God-fearing blues guitarist in a rural Tennessee town who tries to redeem the soul of the troubled town tramp (Christina Ricci) by chaining her to his radiator, justifying his unorthodox methods with quoted Scripture.
