unless you have rose-colored glasses on, the object you're looking at sucks?
 
people pay a premium to get it, and then never use it correctly?
 
Hmmm, maybe our luck is slowly starting to turn?

Chuck Hayes, a supposed target, or at least of board members here, has aheart issue. Now, another fall back plan from Crawford, Reggie Williams has a meniscus tear, out 6-8 weeks. Two near misses for us?

Or, maybe our luck is starting to spread--not only do our own players get injured, but also those once rumored to be potentially ours as well. Soon, FA's won't even consider us for fear of potential injury.

or? just being rumored of going to POR causes this?
 
Hmmmm... We need more Kobe to Portland trade rumors then!!!
 
Anyone else surprised that Kris Humphries hasn't signed a new contract yet?

I know everything Brooklyn is doing has D12 in mind but Kris was very solid last season and you hear nothing.

At only 25, double-double machine, he'd be a nice addition to any team.

He's restricted, right?

I'd guess the Nets are still trying to get a Howard deal done and need the cap room to take on Hedo's contract as part of the deal. Humphries coming or going isn't going to matter much to Deron signing long-term.

He's unrestricted.
 
Rudy is now a defensive specialist apparently
Kind of funny how a few guys this forum has been constantly bitching about on the defensive end went to new teams and were deemed "good" if not great defenders. Blake last year when he went to LA and now Rudy. Guess teams like to psych themselves up with phantom abilities the player has never shown before.
 
That's so odd nobody signed humphries!

Always came off as sort of a Mr. Machismo imo. Doesn't seem to exactly be a "clubhouse presence", nor an "intimidator", nor a "on-the-court leader". Decent statistical output, but would be a negative hit to any type of team chemistry. But I'm not a GM so who knows why he isn't picked up, just saying I'm not surprised.
 
I don't think he has an ego problem. I don't think he's like these AAU brats that will only player in two of the 30 NBA cities. He lives in Chanhassen, MN during the off-season, a small 'burb. The Kardashian crap was fabricated "reality" tv drama.

He's a young vet that can produce.
 
Pacers look good. Also watching sixers. This is will be a tough game opening night.
 
The fan turnout in Detroit is pathetic.

This would have been sold out in minutes at the RG.
 
Chris Paul's replacement at starting PG just went 8-14 24/6/6 with 3 steals a block and no TO in 26 min. And only drafted 17 spots behind Felton too.
 
Celts Jeff Green out for season

Ric Bucher @RicBucher
Huge blow to Celtics -- Jeff Green set to have heart surgery, out for the season, contract voided.

Sucks to be to boston. AND its another heart condition!!!
 
OMG. Jeff Green with an aortic aneurysm. Will miss season.

That is serious stuff.

I worked on project with aneurysms in Cleveland Clinic where Green is apparently getting checked out. The implications of a surgical way to treat aneurysms could seriously jeopardize his career going forward.

I hope he makes it out ok and gets healthy.
 
feel bad for green BUT F-OFF Bill Simmons


Bill Simmons @sportsguy33
Best Celtics after Big 4 right now: Jermaine O'Neal, Brandon Bass, Chris Wilcox, Keyon Dooling, Marquis Daniels, JuJuan Johnson. Yeesh.
 
I feel bad for Green (and, to a lesser extent, the Celtics)... but, man, the Thunder get lucky, don't they?

Ed O.
 
Why cant somebody on OKC ever have a knee injury? That is the luckiest franchise I've ever seen when it comes to health. Not that I want guys hurt but that franchise seems like they have dumb luck.
 
The Thunder still have some personnel problems.

Kendrick Perkins is still not a good player yet.

He's so annoying.
 
yes please

Celts have to go for a win now approach, this gives them two starters and they really have no SF right now. With the rumors of Rondo already who knows, but if there is a chance you do it.
