Re: OFFICIAL 2014 Around the NBA thread
Can we talk about the elephant in the room yet? Kevin Love wears Chinese shoes, not Nikes or Adidas. He also had an ESPiN commercial with Rubio that has 200k views on youtube. No surprise "fans" voted him in.

Even more special is how they have Love knocking around Sumo wrestlers, which is a direct insult by the Chinese to Japan.

Griffin doesn't have the greatest BBIQ... tried to take it to the rack with 1 second and dunk it before the shot clock goes off against 2 Toronto players. Epic Fail. I enjoyed that.

That was a 51 point game out nowhere, too. Least likely 50 point game in NBA history? His previous career high was 26, I think?

Miller had games where he scored over 30 before his 52 point game, though. He had five 30+ games alone in the 2001-02 season.

Terrence Ross went to Alki Middle School in Vancouver, Washington. My brother knows him from there. Kinda cool that he dropped the 50 bomb.

Re: OFFICIAL 2014 Around the NBA thread
I don't know enough about Asian culture to know that is an insult. Sumo is a well respected sport, and it looks like 2 athletes to me. I doubt they would have made it for a Chinese audience if it were offensive.
Denver's lead dropped to 7, now 10 versus Ind.

wasn't there some scrub who scored an ass load for or against the 76ers once? Willie Barton or Willie Burton? Miami Heat expansion comes to mind..

Re: OFFICIAL 2014 Around the NBA thread
ABC just pointed out that Stern is retiring in less than a week (yay!), by saying that he "created 7 teams"
Do they point that in his tenure that 4 teams moved? Including one of the teams he "created"?

Sumo is a major Japanese sport. The ad is made for a Chinese audience. China doesn't like Japan.
