Heh Odens knee was chronically hurt. Dude hurt his shoulder and is probably overthinking his shot now.

He hurt his shoulder. They said muscle imbalance, but I think that's too cover the fact that he hurt his shoulder and they played him and he fucked it up worse.
 
Pelicans win again. That’s another team somehow better than us smh

Hold the fuck on! So you are putting Ball on blast, yet supporting THIS kid? Who was picked AHEAD of him? Bro?

Yeah, because this kid hasn't played 1 NBA game healthy, while Ball has played 40+ NBA games and has been trash.

actually they are 22-20 same as us but sure you can say they are better then us because they beat us on their home court.
 
Man that Timberwolves crowd sucks. I Never saw a more boring Crowd.
 
@HCP, you think GSW can pull Anthony (48pt/17reb in MSG today) Davis in this year, or is this an offseason deal (if ever)?
 
Knicks really bottled the game against Pelicans last night, it was already won for them before they went and beat themselves.

Davis really is a special player. I wonder if they will be able to keep Cousins, and also whether they will be able to build a contender around them two if they do. On paper they have the ingredients to make it work - two amazing big men who are probably the best in the world in their positions, a few very good shooters (Moore, Clark, Miller), experienced guard who can defend (Rondo and Allen) and a versatile point guard who although not among the best in the league, is above average in plenty of crucial categories. They are probably a Klay Thompson or Otto Porter away from being a legit threat.

Well a team that has the best power forward and the best center in the league has to be good.

It's quite obvious this is tunchis third account. I don't know who he thinks he is fooling but when I saw this one comment the other day I knew exactly who it was. Shits Tunchi AKA Grandjury

What do you mean? They have the best front court in basketball along with a pass first PG. when you have a PF/C who can shoot virtually from any where on the court and a Point Guard who doesn’t need to score, it puts more opportunities into the hands of Cousins/Davis to make baskets..Who would of thought Holiday would be on the tear he is currently on either? That’s all NO needed was a Pass first guard....they got one of the best ones off the street in FA for pennies and dimes. They have built the best possible system around their two best players. Funny part is ...we still are competition and about even with them at this point in the season. We just need to close out the 3rd and 4th better..not having front court scorers or defenders of our own limits us to playing through our backcourt ...It’s not a recipe for success..but Dame/CJ are competent enough to pull it off some games.

You need a non-Blazer moniker with which to pin your future (good) reputation too!

I tell you what, you put The Brow out there with those shooters (obviously some will be sent back) but that’s just a nightmare for the league. Trades are so tough to actually pull off. Especially involving superstars. Seems like an off-season thing to me if it were to happen.

The forum was much better two years ago. In the past couple years these types of posters seem to be migrating to the board.

Sign of the times?

I clicked on a link to a Reddit thread the other day. First time on Reddit. A guy asked a question about whether something was going to be backwards compatible between Xbox 360 and Xbox One. He was summarily attacked like a pack of hyenas on an injured gazelle. That will be my last time on Reddit.

:cheers:

Fultz is a Bust

Did you say the same thing about Simmons last year and Embiid the year before?

Philly has a recent history of being very patient with young players with injuries. They don't panic. They don't rush them back. They don't trade them. They wait for them to heal and reap the rewards.

Not saying Fultz will be a superstar, but it's a little early to be calling him a bust.

Haha!! Lowry looked like he was BOUT IT!! I'm not sure Simmons really wanted any..
