What about that game...nah nevermind.


Also, I don't watch Robin Lopez every night so I don't know. I do watch Howard every night and I watched Yao every night and it does piss me off how many guys...stretch 4s no less, get away with guarding Howard by falling down and flailing around. But there was just a time where being weak in the post and overpowered just meant bad luck for you. So when I see guys fall down and it's something Rocket fans see every night...He even got a foul for posting up on a guard, guard falls down...offensive foul. Refs punished him for being stronger against a guard...as if there was any other result in him being guarded by a guard. I just wish they would go back to if you weren't strong enough to guard the opposing post player, you pay for that. Not force a power post player like Dwight to learn moves like Hakeem because that's never going to happen. But rant on that over.

This is the game of basketball. I can go find a 500 pound man who will just run the shit out of any one in the league. Lowering your shoulder into someone and laying them out is not basketball. I don't think that that's what Dwight does all the time, but the notion that every time the defender falls is a flop is wrong.

I think he's on his way to Brooklyn with a Rube jersey on.

How about my KG Wolves jersey? No one would know who I was rooting for. It's probably worth something since it's from his rookie year and they changed the jersey design in his second year.

How many challenges does the coach get each game? One? It doesn't quite say. I love the idea of a technical for flopping. Harden and Paul would get ejected every game.

"As in football, if the coach's challenge is successful, he will retain the timeout; if it is not, he loses it. Teams will be given one challenge in a game and another in overtime."

Got it. Thanks. I think they should do it.

By the way, the battle of the winless Magic and Sixers is tied now with 1:37 left. Who do I root for?

Well the Sixers of course. They were afterall nice enough to lose a championship series to the Blazers you know.
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

It's still early but the Jazz are up by 11 in the 2nd over the Cavs
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

Cavs seemed to have started Marion at SG. Interesting. It IS a process.
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

Bucks fans cheering MVP for Derrick Rose.
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

The Cavs only have 2 assists 2 minutes into the third quarter. I wonder what the record for fewest in a game is....
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

I'm surprised Pierce missed that
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

We are going to miss the first spectacular minutes of the clippers/warriors game for this terrible pacers/wizards overtime game!
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

Irving a selfish player. LeBron has a lot to teach him.
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

I'm rooting for Cavs by the way. Whenever East plays West, we must root for the East.
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

Wow I just saw that the Kings are up 40-19 after 1!
 
Re: "OFFICIAL" Around the NBA season Thread

Pacers just went to Hibbert for three for the win and he missed. What the fuck?
