LBJ is putting up 23/9/7 on almost 50%. It's a different kind of coasting for sure.

Yes, and we'd better save Metta too. No more than 3 MPG.

They're about to be 2 games below .500 and probably going to get worse. I don't think they are delusional enough to think that they're a locked for the playoffs. To the point of instructing Deng to coast/suck out there.

I heard Luke say hes saving him for the WCF vs the Warriors. We need him with fresh legs to stop KD if we want a chance at a title.

definitely YES! but he's not really cruising, he's kinda parked on the side of the road.

Haha. I give you props for bringing that thread up, you surely got me! No one even in there right mind would have thought that Deng was gonna be a ghost on the court, even though he's helping the young players through knowledge, it's probably one of the situations right now were you just hope Deng eventually gets it together.. a lot of people were expecting big things from him.

I feel an urge to puke whenever I look at Deng's contract.
