OFFICIAL AROUND THE NBA THREAD- February 2021

[Pinwheel1]

So is Bjelica 5-21 this year from the 3pt line an aberration?
I would assume so since he usually shoots over 40%. I sure as hell would not give him more than Zach though.

Dallas is weird. They’re getting crushed by Golden State at home.

 

[Minstrel]

Dallas is weird. They’re getting crushed by Golden State at home.

Both teams are weird. Golden State beat both the Lakers and Clippers, then lost to New York (granted, New York isn't as awful as normal, but still not a good team).

I wouldn’t be surprised if Rick Carlisle was fired before Stotts. Dallas looks really bad.

 

[Chris Craig]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Rick Carlisle was fired before Stotts. Dallas looks really bad.

Stotts can hire him as an assistant coach

Did YOU log on and vote for All-Stars today? Lillard needs every vote he can get to keep that starting spot right now.

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Almost didn't realize that @THE HCP 's Lakers were playing @AldoTrapani 's Nuggets tonight! I now see why both gentlemen are quiet tonight. Respect.

Lol

Christian Wood taken off by a wheelchair.

 

[trailblazer18]

Sounds like a pretty badly rolled ankle.

 

[DDolla]

How in the hell this Horton-Tucker guy fell to the Lakers?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Did YOU log on and vote for All-Stars today? Lillard needs every vote he can get to keep that starting spot right now.

He doesn’t have starting spot. Curry has twice as many votes and Doncic is ahead of him too.

 

[AldoTrapani]

He doesn’t have starting spot. Curry has twice as many votes and Doncic is ahead of him too.

It only counts for 1/3 of the vote the rest is coaches and media I believe

 

[kjironman1]

He doesn’t have starting spot. Curry has twice as many votes and Doncic is ahead of him too.

Aren't there are three guard positions? Currently he is the third position with just under 1 million votes. Yes Curry and Doncic have more.
Lillard seems to have a spot but how about we get back to the point?

VOTE for Damian Lillard and push him past Luka?

 

[Cugel]

Yeah Dallas, weird. I am not convinced there is a Luka love fest among his teammates.

 

[Darkwebs]

He really needs to back off the flexing ...it's ruining his shoulder

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Klay Thompson is 10th in guards, huh? He’s had an amazing season.

 

[BigGameDamian]

The Golden Globes are coming up. Is James Harden nominated for any academy awards this year?

 

[blazerkor]

Aren't there are three guard positions? Currently he is the third position with just under 1 million votes. Yes Curry and Doncic have more.
Lillard seems to have a spot but how about we get back to the point?

VOTE for Damian Lillard and push him past Luka?

Nope, that would be cool but it's three frontcourt players (supposed to represent SF, PF and C) and two guards (supposed to represent guards).

Trae Young goes from fan favorite to an afterthought in one year. He was the leading fan vote player for guards in the East last year.

 

[kjironman1]

Alright. Then even more so we need to vote Lillard in there. There is no way Luka should take that spot over Dame.
I voted again today.
Dame, CJ, Kanter, Melo (Why not) and Nurk
Come to think of it they only let me vote for two guards? Why would i think there were three? Not sure what i was thinking?
Anyway VOTE!

 

[kjironman1]

Trae Young goes from fan favorite to an afterthought in one year. He was the leading fan vote player for guards in the East last year.

What is kind of funny is that Harden is third in voting also.

bizarre contact tracing fiasco in BK



Prolly something to do with the lack of accuracy in testing

 

[THE HCP]

So KD was set to play, minutes before tip off they yank him and say he can't play. Then with a few minute left in the 1st quarter, he walks onto the god damn court!!!! Then get's yanked again in the third. What the fuck!
What a mess.
Side note: this was the first NBA game KD coming off the bench.

if tests are inconclusive, you'd think they'd sign on the side of being extra cautious and not let him play, period.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Durant shouldn't have even been able to play the game.

 

[RoseCityRebel]

I’m still bewildered that an extreme cold that mostly isn’t deadly is impacting people this way. By me in NW Slabtown many restaurants are shut down for good and even our food co-op on Thurman is at death’s door.

Hey? But there is always Fred Meyer on Burnside which never shut down! What an abject failure to put my neighbors out of business as Kroger and Jack in the Box by me thrive.
