[January] Around The NBA

[SheedSoNasty]

Without cheating can you guess who this is?

Hint 1: He's one of the most athletic to ever play the game.
Hint 2: He's in the league today.

Need more hints?

Looks like Vince Carter

Is this a trick? I'll say it kinda looks like Vince Carter and then I'll be accused of not being able to tell black guys apart.

It is not a trick, it is indeed Air Canada himself.

Westbrook

Klay goes for 45 tonight. I saw Wes trying to use his size and strength to slow him down. Didn't work. Parsons tried as well.......

 

[julius]

I heard that the warriors have the best ever record after 46 games, so I checked bball reference.

They do. But that bulls team was insane. Their longest losing streak was 2 games and their shortest winning streak was 5 (including the playoffs) and had a 13 game winning streak followed immediately by an 18 gamer.

 

[KingSpeed]

Go Pelicans!

 

[PDXFonz]

Could the Lakers be the first team with the worst record in the league to send a player to the all star game?

 

[PDXFonz]

I bet the Laker management analyzes and over rates talent in garbage time. They are either going to be doomed for a decade or turn it around real quick if Simmons turns out to be the next superstar. Not sure there will be any fringe success for them.

That was a Casey Holdahl free throw!

 

[Strenuus]

Anyone else notice the mason plumlee like free throw before the piggy-back ride?

 

[BBert]

That had to be on purpose. But why?

Looked more Ed Davis to me - Plumlee's FT shot has improved quite dramatically.

Mason has had 2 instances where he hit backboard only or completely missed. lol.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Actually, I think Plumlee has regressed lately. After sucking, I recall he got his FT% up to 61% - my vague memory says that was about 2 months ago. He's now at 62%. He may have been shooting up to 70% for a while, which is where I'd like to see him next year.

Davis is still shooting 53%. Mo Harkless is shooting 57%, yuck

If you commit credit card fraud, don't tell social media about it.

I think Gilbert Arenas is a new word for "moron".

It's a real shame, when I was a kid he was like my favorite player outside of LeBron and Roy to watch.

Lillard reminds me of arenas. Minus the crazy part

 

[PDXFonz]

Just having fun
Hate the NBA rules and wants to make a joke of them so maybe league will change
Some weird game the team plays? Or maybe he lost a bet?

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

A mix of Arenas and Billups

 

[Wizard Mentor]

I want Houston to lose tonight so that if the Blazers win, we get a little closer to them

Random, but was browsing nba stats and JJ Redick has a 91.9 efg% on spot-ups this year. Ridiculous.

Somewhere Adam Morrison is weeping. But then, that's a pretty safe bet.
