Not in terms of wins and losses. The guy still can't shoot to save his life. Last year his coach benched him in the 4th quarter of close games in favor of J.J. Bares because Rubio was afraid to shoot and every team in the league new it. They would back off, play the passing lanes and dare Rubio to shoot. MIN's record was horrible in close games with Rubio last season. It's hard to close out a game when the guy with the ball in his hands can't and won't shoot.

Dude you should see how bad they are without him. Nobody else on that team can make a play.

Just because everyone else sucks, doesn't mean Rubio is good. Although, I suppose it's all relative. Until he learns to shoot somewhere north of 37% from the field, he will never be the starting PG on a winning team. If the defense doesn't respect your shot, you're playing 4 on 5 on offense. Last year, MIN was a MUCH better 4th quarter team with Barea running the point than Rubio - think about that for a minute.

[H.C.]

For those who didn't see

Fuck Harden

What makes this worse is when Harden was asked about this in his post game interview..
"oh that's how we play on the street, just two competitors going at it"

Nahh, do that on the street and it'll be coming to blows. Harden knows that.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Harden lost his streetball cred with his flopping.

Name me a more blatant offender - Divac? Harden still tops him.

Team Spain? Probably not.

Austin Rivers and Garnett got a double tech...wonder what KG said to Rivers lol.

Same old KG - always trying to play the tough guy against tiny little guards who don't even belong in the league. He knows if he actually tried to tough up against someone relevant, or 6'6"+, he'd get his face smashed in. Despite his irrelevance I still loathe the guy. What a schmuck. I hope before his playing days are over someone knocks him out.

LMFAO. If Harden tried his flopping shit "on the street" he'd get his bell rung "on the daily".

 

[BBert]

This is also an interesting no call...

Holy crap. Nothing was called on that?

 

[blue32]

When you flop I flop we flop! When I flop we flop you flop!

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Holy crap. Nothing was called on that?

Something was called.

A shot clock violation.

 

[H.C.]

I wonder if either of the Harden plays make shaqtin-a-fool.

 

[B-Roy]

Brian Shaw fired.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Holy crap. Nothing was called on that?

Nope, people are saying LeBron fouled, I don't see it. I see him go for the steal but Harden hooks his arm leaving no time to pull his arm back to avoid contact, easy offensive foul.

I wish I had the GIF of Harden getting an and one off of pushing off Tristan Thompson's neck.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Brian Shaw fired.

Knicks will pick him up for their holy trifecta of bad coaches... Fisher/Rambis/Shaw

All former Lakers. As it should be.

Didnt the league come out and say there were two fouls on the play. Both LBJ and Hardin fouled each other

 

[dviss1]

Holy crap. Nothing was called on that?

Lebron should've been called for a hold on that play. Pretty blatant.

 

[kjironman1]

So now Denver fires Brian Shaw and i wonder. How long ago was it they had the COY and a 50+ win season? Crazy!

 

[illmatic99]

Brian Shaw fired.

Some guys are just destined to be assistants. Paul George attributes his rise to stardom because of Shaw. But he never found his footing in DEN-- perhaps he's not so great without a boss.

 

[BBert]

Something was called.

A shot clock violation.

LOLOL

 

[magnifier661]

Tony Allen suspended for tonight's game for violating team policy. Anyone know what was the actual incident?

 

[stampedehero]

My wife was in DC for business last week and saw the Warriors team at one of the monuments.

On the plane ride back she saw Buck Williams who was coming for Kersey's memorial. Talked to him a little and said he seemed really bummed out.

+> Rightfully so

 

[stampedehero]

It's so fitting to have Jason Terry on the rockets... I fucking hate that droopy looking mother fucker.

+> Not even a good suit would do him well

 

[RipCityBlazer]

I didn't expect Houston to be up 14 at half against the Hawks without Harden and Howard.

 

[RipCityBlazer]

Also, Cleveland and Sacramento are both up by 40 in the 3rd quarter. Yikes

 

[stampedehero]

Rose will have to adapt to shooting the 3 and being selective with his driving. problem is, his 3 is inconsistent and is best weapon was his driving. Fuck.

+> What a shame for all the misfortune. He must want to throw up. He has a Bowie or Oden syndrome where nothing goes right

 

[BBert]

Atlanta sucking.

 

[BBert]

Houston trying to give the game back.

 

[BBert]

Five point swing on a terrible Schroeder pass. I wish we had him on our bench though.

 

[BBert]

Atlanta with the lead. And the momentum. 19-3 run.

 

[Darkwebs]

The Hawks right now look like the Blazers during a comeback
