		<description><![CDATA[<p>Okay, so things are not going well for the Detroit Pistons right now.&nbsp; Yes, it was ridiculous how the Minnesota Timberwolves blew them out at home-it was even pathetic.&nbsp; They are 4-5 since trading for Allen Iverson, after starting the season 4-0.</p><p>However, before Pistons' fans start getting pissed off at Joe Dumars and thinking the Pistons' chances of winning a championship are dead without Chauncey Billups, remember that we're still very early in the season.&nbsp; </p><p>Also, fans must understand that when a team acquires a superstar player, it can take a while for the team to adjust and reach its full potential.&nbsp; Plus,&nbsp;Iverson's a point guard for cryin' out loud!&nbsp; He plays the most difficult position in the league, plus the Detroit Pistons are a much diferent team from the Denver Nuggets.&nbsp; These early struggles are natural, especially when you look at how accustomed Detroit was to Chauncey Billups.&nbsp; It's a big adjustment on both sides.</p><p><a href="http://www.losangeleslakersnews.com/ibam2008/weblog/5525/detroit-will-be-okay-give-them-time.html">Continue reading "Detroit Will Be Okay-Give Them Time"</a></p>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Last night, I watched more than half of the Lakers versus Suns game.&nbsp; For much of the first half, it managed to be a close game.&nbsp; However, the Lakers' superior talent, energy, and ability to play as a team was evident.&nbsp; The game became a blowout during the second half.&nbsp; At one point, the Lakers pulled ahead 89-71.</p><p>Here are some of my observations from the game.&nbsp; First, the Lakers' transition game is much strong than that of the Suns.&nbsp; They scored on fast breaks much more often, while the Suns rarely got it going in the open court.</p><p>Second, Steve Nash is not the player he use to be.&nbsp; This game was a prime example, as the Laker defense kept him from getting too involved.&nbsp; He did not score much, and his ten assists did not help the Suns much.&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.losangeleslakersnews.com/ibam2008/weblog/5474/lakers--clearly-the-western-conferences.html">Continue reading "Lakers  Clearly the Western Conferences best team this season"</a></p>]]></description>
