Let me also add that rookie Norris Cole is mos def a problem. He came up big in the end, he def needs more time on the floor if he continues to play like he did tonight.

I wouldn't go that far, but they can use more defensive pressure in the paint, Omar Asik is not cutting it for them right now.

But, its interesting how marketing tactics have given way to players not being able to be on the same team. Even more interesting that Derrick Rose and Dwight are both endorsed by Adidas. However, I doubt any other shoe brand is going to be as popular as the Jordans were when they came out. Matter fact they still are. Im sure you heard of the madness that went on for the new Jordans that came out. So even if DH and DR manage to sucessfully launch their sneaker brands, I doubt they would be as popular as the Jordan's have been.

But still sad to see that marketing sneakers has gained priority over player placement in the Nba. It is a bummer, Id like to see DH somewhere other than he is now, and Chicago wouldn't be a bad place to put him as they are lacking a sufficient big man.

Yeah he will be forever missed from the NBA floor, I don't think there will ever be any player like him. Truly one of the greatest players and most humble as well. Also congrats to him as he just got hitched to his Fiance the other day.

His new sneakers seems to be creating a lot of controversy though. Heard it was causing a lot of violence and crime. Crazy--Video: Community Leaders Blame Nike Air Jordan Shoes For Rising Crime: Say Michael Jordan Should Speak Up To Stop Sneaker Violence!

What i loved about mike the most was that he didn't flop, when he drove to the basket he drove in full force. Even the "Bad boys" pistons wrestling tactics had a hard time stopping him.
