Check it out. At first glance, I was a bit discouraged in reading his piece as it seemed really negative and made me appreciate his writing less. But the one good thing I got out of it is the Update at the bottom.

Apparently the play at the end of the game with Roy pinned in the corner was not Brandon's fault, but actually a botched play where Travis was supposed to move to the middle or move somewhere other than where he did, and therefore created a broken play. Why Roy couldn't find one of the other players/ one of the other players couldn't get open for Roy is beyond me..

Do you think Roy should have still been able to be savior and this was just a tired end of 5 game road trip mistake? Or do you think Brandon got screwed with the blame as us viewers, and most fair weather followers will just see that he blew the game for us in crunch time? Does this make you want to trade Travis for being less clutch over the past few games? Share your thoughts.

PS. Hedo got his Christmas present early this year.... that garbage of a bank shot to win the game.

Barrett says Oden will come off bench for Heat game

Mike Barrett said in a radio interview that Oden will be playing tomorrow, and looked very sharp in practice today. GO G O!! They are thinking by not starting him but instead coming in after seeing how the game goes, that the pressure will be taken off of him. Hope they are right! Oden should have a hay day when he gets on the floor, and basically do whatever he wants against miami's big men. He looked like a dog penned up too long during the game against orlando, so I am glad he is getting back in the lineup so quickly. Just in time to duel it out with Tyson Chandler and Al Jefferson.
