"Official" Around the NBA January 2015

[PtldPlatypus]

I'm not sure what the ish a "mix mosh" is, but other than that I fully agree!

It's like a mish-mash, only more crowded and with loud music.

 

[KingSpeed]

Memphis just made a big trade without being afraid

At then lost at home to lowly Dallas

7 reserves - Aldridge, Duncan, Dirk, Paul, Harden, Lillard, and Westbrook.

Sorry. No Durant, no Dwight Howard, no Cousins,

I guarantee that Durant will get in before Dirk or Duncan

Agree with this, though I will say that I'm more intrigued by this not only starting in someone's fevered imagination, but that it's spreading among "6" league executives. And I'll admit that, if "6" league execs were saying that OKC is pitching Griffin hard to return to OKC, then it would also be news.

News flash, nobody wants him, he can't shoot or play defense

Rastapopolous wants him. He's wanted him for months, years even.

If Pablo Prigioni was available, I'd LEAP at it, and he possibly might, if only because he's a traditional PG to the core, and those aren't really wanted in the triangle.

 

[riverman]

If the Knicks don't want him, nuff said.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Looks like Kobe has a torn rotator cuff. Not yet known if it's a partial or complete tear.

 

[illmatic99]

Beginning of the end

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Hey, Kobe might actually have to sit out the all star game now! A more deserving player gets to replace him.

Great point. Harden will start, and I think this opens the door for Klay Thompson to get a spot (along with Paul, Lillard, and Westbrook).

Great point. Plus Aldridge injury opens door for Cousins or Durant.

You think Aldridge is going to be out a month with his thumb injury?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

You think Aldridge is going to be out a month with his thumb injury?

He better not be!

 

[Strenuus]

He better not be!

I once again say Beibs should be starting at the 4!

On another note--Steph Curry is shooting 53.5% from the field in January, and just brought his FG% for the season to 50.1%, putting him (for now) in the 50-40-90 range. If he can keep it up, he'll be only the 5th player ever to put up a 50-40-90 season while taking >15 FGA/g.

I am huge Lillard homer but that is just amazing. I would still take Lillard for a clutch shot but its not like Curry isnt pretty good at those too.

 

[PDXFonz]

They are playing Kobes 81 point game on NBATV right now. I don't care how much you dislike him, this game was ridiculous.

I read shit like that and think, "Great, we got Clyde again." Then I hit myself because that's such a bratty thing to think.

 

[HailBlazers]

Go Hawks. Fuck the Thunder and the refs they rode in on.

Kyle Korver may go 50-50-90.

 

[KingSpeed]

Cavs are up 49 against a hot Hornets team.

 

[KingSpeed]

They just said the Knicks have hit the 100 point mark for the first time in 12 games. Wow.

 

[KingSpeed]

Hawks franchise record 15 straight wins.

 

[KingSpeed]

Mavs lose! That keeps us a full game ahead of them.
