Most professional athletes use performance enhancing drugs. The key is to use them up to a level that doesn't get you suspended. It's a science. Say a level of 10 in your blood would result in a positive test, the goal is to raise it to 9 without going over the threshold. I'm sure Lebron and his team have it all figured out. I have to believe PED's create an advantage in most sports, but there is no question with baseball. It's had dramatic influence on the performance of both hitters and pitchers. If you don't believe that, ask yourself the question of why they are used.

KAT is elite at getting to the basket, but almost every time he does, he ends up on the floor leading to a 5 on 4 going the other way. It's one of the things that has always bothered me about him...he might give up as many points as he scores on his drives. Case in point: late in the first half he scores on a drive but falls, and NAW hits an open three at the other end.

That along with not being able to punish smaller guys on him in the post. That's one refreshing change with Randle. He has mastered the ability to body smaller guys up and clear out space without drawing offensive foul calls whereas KAT's stray voltage and flailing worked against him.

The Knicks could be in some trouble here.....

Sometimes I wonder if TJ Shannon is to us what Kuminga was to Golden State. I hope not, as I want us to benefit from Shannon's strengths, not some other team!

The difference is Kuminga was straight in the doghouse. TSJ got opportunity and played bad, hopefully next season (or if he gets a chance in the playoffs) TSJ balls out
