"OFFICIAL" Around the NBA - December Thread

[Strenuus]

I feel like pushing back the all star voting 1 month might help make voting more balanced. I know getting a longer look before voting has affected who I will vote for. Maybe the general public will approach it the same way.

the general public doesn't watch basketball. they are told what to do. utterly pathetic.

You're probably right. But I at least think that was the NBAs hope. Maybe they are going with a last straw type of thing before they have to restructure the voting process. If you think about it I'm sure the players don't like it. I wonder if any of the western snubs this year will say they are happy that Jeremy lin is starting.

I really hope Jeremy Lin gets voted in. Then the NBA will have to do something about it

I'm very tired of politics being involved with sports. The two are not supposed to be mixed... Politics divide, sports bring people together.

Well duh, re-hiring Olbermann proved that.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Man, Irving can really hit tough shots inside

On Smith, asked about his offensive trouble... "The triangle is confusing"

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I might be in the minority but I think Quincy Acy is a really good role player. He plays so hard.

wonder if it was a hexagon.

 

[magnifier661]

Lmao at the swing man commercial with Noah

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Pisses me off how good Golden State looks on offense. Their passing and cutting are sublime.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Davis hates his team lol

 

[Eastoff]

Davis hates his team lol

Maybe they could trade him for Chris Paul.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

They should trade him to us for CJ and T-Rob and a conditional pick.

Or they told me to pass the ball and that's confusing

 

[riverman]

Luke Babbit 5pts 3 rebounds and -14

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Carmelo had 9 points on 4-19 shooting... ouch.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Luke Babbit 5pts 3 rebounds and -14

-14 looks pretty good compared to some of the others.

Asik was 4-8 with 15 rebounds and a -21

Their schedule has been as weak as ours last year to start the season, they haven't faced a team over .500 during their streak.

But yea, they're on point.

Yeah. They should stop doing the national anthem at sporting events.

How many players can go for 30/15 with their team playing Keep Away from them

Dwight Howard is about the only other person I can think of.

Seriously? The League only fines 5k lol from the article itself... 0.0003% of Hibberts salary.

In the words of Olaf Sanderson from the greatest movie of all time, D2: The Mighty Ducks... "Well worth it"
