Is Lance Stephenson the next Ron Artest? The guy does some absurd things at times, yet has a lot of talent.

Is Lance Stephenson the next Ron Artest? The guy does some absurd things at times, yet has a lot of talent.

The guy is a loose cannon. A nut job with a ton of talent. More BAD than GOOD if you ask me. Completely out of control and makes shit decisions. Has an amazing game numbers wise every now and than, but has know idea what he's doing out there.

 

[THE HCP]

Wait a sec, the Pels beat the Clips? I thought the better teams always won!

 

[riverman]

Wait a sec, the Pels beat the Clips? I thought the better teams always won!

yeah, what's up with that?

 

[PapaG]

Wade grabbing his hamstring. Cramps? Probably. It can't be easy playing not every game, yet then playing 30 minutes in the games you do play.

 

[THE HCP]

Pacers are better with Turner on the floor anyway.

 

[riverman]

and before tonight the Pacers scored 71 and then 77 in two losses, defense doesn't guarantee wins I guess

 

[PapaG]

Wait a sec, the Pels beat the Clips? I thought the better teams always won!

You'll be told that losing on the road to a team like the Pels is better than losing at home to a team like the Pels. I disagree, in that losing to lesser teams is bad no matter what, and both are bad.

 

[THE HCP]

Go Jazz right?

 

[Strenuus]

ANd I'd agree with you like a boss!

 

[Strenuus]

Come on Jazz! Up 7 early in the 2nd.

Watched a few videos of this play, the only reason i'd even call that a regular foul is because of the incidental contact to Roy's face. Wasn't a flagrant at all, wasn't an intentional elbow to the face when Hibbert goes up like he did there and a player is moving his arms to try and get the ball past the tree trunks Hibbert calls his arms its pretty suprising this hasn't happened more often to Hibbert.

 

[Rhal]

Come on Jazz! Up 7 early in the 2nd.

There shooting 50% against memphis don't see that staying that way. Would be huge if the JAzz somehow got the win.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

6 min for Oden with 2 fouls?

And they think he'll make an impact in the playoffs against Hibbert and Bynum?

GTFOH

Pels have been playing well. Beat Miami among other teams.

 

[KingSpeed]

6 min for Oden with 2 fouls?

And they think he'll make an impact in the playoffs against Hibbert and Bynum?

GTFOH

A) he made an impact defensively at the beginning of the game. If they can get that from him in 15-20 minutes, he will help.

B) Bynum is done.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

15-20 min?

His season high is 15 min.

If anyone is done its Oden.

 

[KingSpeed]

15-20 min?

His season high is 15 min.

If anyone is done its Oden.

Oden is playing minutes in big games. Bynum isn't playing at all. I think they're done with Bynum. Heat are not done with Oden.

 

[riverman]

A few games ago Oden had 2pts 2 rebounds and 4 fouls in about 9 minutes, I gotta say, I'm far from impressed with his comeback. He's been working to get in game shape for several years and still hasn't accomplished that.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Being in shape isn't the issue.

His knees swell up after each games he plays in. (Via Cowherd's radio show)

The explosion is gone and his mobility is getting worse as the season goes on.

 

[MickZagger]

Minnesota is starting to look like they got a steal with Georgi Deng. That guy has been balling lately.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Dieng isn't blocking shots like I expected but he's rebounding the hell out of the ball.

 

[MickZagger]

CP3 was 0-12 from the field. Is he washed up?

 

[MickZagger]

Dieng isn't blocking shots like I expected but he's rebounding the hell out of the ball.

2.5 per/36 ain't bad. I was not a big fan of him coming out of college. But, after watching him play a little, I'm sold. He's a legit player.

 

[MickZagger]

I'm pretty chauvinist. But, even I can admit that Doris Burke is really good at her job and could run circles around a lot of dude media pundits when it comes to hoops.

 

[THE HCP]

CP3 was 0-12 from the field. Is he washed up?

Did JinxSpeed hack your account?

 

[Strenuus]

Utah up 13 with less than 9 left in the 3rd! COME ON!

Make that 14.

 

[THE HCP]

Do yo thang Richard Jefferson!

 

[MickZagger]

Do yo thang Richard Jefferson!

Gordon Hayward = Str8 Buttah

 

[THE HCP]

Gordon Hayward = Str8 Buttah

Here we go again! You realize he didn't go to Gonzaga right?
