Around the NBA: Feb. 2017

[PDXFonz]

Pierces response to Draymond talking shit about his farewell tour.

 

[Minstrel]

It took Pierce all night to come up with something that generic? At least Green's was original!

 

[BBert]

Soon people will be able to put together a nice mix tape to the tune of "Kung fu fighting"

How is it that fucker never gets suspended?

 

[Minstrel]

How is it that fucker never gets suspended?

Yeah...one day he's going to get suspended in an incredibly important game. Like in game 5 of a Finals or something!

 

[BBert]

Let me just say this about Shaq.

Fuck Shaq.

 

[BBert]

Yeah...one day he's going to get suspended in an incredibly important game. Like in game 5 of a Finals or something!

Oh, Touche!

 

[Nate]

One time out of how many?

I've never seen a player make a ref bleed before. Not even a technical.

Don't get my hopes up Minstrel, that won't happen again!

The fact that he got away with it is probably the biggest injustice of all.

God damnit. Do people actually believe that shit isn't intentional?! I wish Darryl Dawkins was still alive and playing.

Honestly...is anyone out there who didn't want to hit Kenny Mauer at least once?

 

[PDXFonz]

Sergio's talents are wasted in PHI. He could be a solid backup PG for a contending team.

Spurs would love him

 

[PDXFonz]

Spurs would love him

I would love to get Patty back. Spurs would probably take Patty over Sergio as well.

 

[PDXFonz]

Mase is +19 right now for the Nuggets.

 

[riverman]

I can enjoy watching the Nuggets now with Will and Mason playing together....I like both those guys!

 

[PDXFonz]

Jokic has looked pretty bad ever since the trade.

Imagine if this happened... Nurkic comes here and becomes the player Denver wants Jokic to be. Jokic becomes the player they thought Nurkic was.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Sure, but how many people have actually done it - and gotten off scot free?

In Spain.

I think Plumlee has one of the highest BBIQ's in the game. Dude is the epitome of a Coach K player.

 

[PDXFonz]

In Spain.

BNM

He has NBA talent.

They aren't a contender but he would be great in NY.

10 PTS, 12 REB and 7 AST in 17 minutes. Are DEN fans still bitching about Plumlee now that they've actually seen him being Plumlee?

No, he doesn't. He failed last time he was here, went back to Spain for six years, came back and lost his job to T.J. McConnell. He'll be out of the league again soon.

Nuggets fans seem to be bipolar. They are calling him the GOAT right now.

 

[KingSpeed]

Pierce's Celtics blew 3-2 lead in 2010 NBA Finals.

 

[KingSpeed]

Any other team I would be surprised... and it's still a huge number... but damn... still impressive.

Gotta love that Clippers defense!

 

[Strenuus]

Gotta love that Clippers defense!

It's surprising because there were times in the beginning of the year where they had solid defense.

I know a game against us it seemed they did really well against us.

But 50 points in a quarter against anyone is good. Best defense/worst defense. It's just a quarter... a perfect quarter, really. (well, they probably missed a shot, but still.)

Best quarter ever was the first quarter vs Spurs in 1990. We led 49-18 at the end of it.

 

[ripcityboy]

NBA personalities have got to take some chill with the social media accounts. First Shaq goes full on aggro with his feud with Javale McGee. Now Mark Cuban is going apeshit because of something Bleacher Report posted about Dirk. The English FA has a penalty system over tweets regarding officials and other players. The NBA might want to consider it for players, owners and coaches.

I heard that call by Schonley live and listened while they almost lost. I might have hurt myself smashing something.
