OT: Around the NBA

[MickZagger]

Mozgov for the Knicks looks like a capable big man.

 

[44Thrilla]

based on?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Mozgov is a backup on most teams. It just so happens NY's only other center is Eddy Curry so he's stating by default. Reminds me of Gortat. Mozgov also fouls at an incredible rate.

 

[MickZagger]

based on?

He's a somewhat coordinated 7 footer that has pretty nice touch. He's only what 20?

Yeah, I suppose. I don't know what to make of him so far.

 

[44Thrilla]

Rondo has 20 assists through just over 3 quarters

 

[MickZagger]

Rondo has 20 assists through just over 3 quarters

The guy is an amazing playmaker.

 

[44Thrilla]

22 now, he has a chance for 30, which is Skiles' NBA record

 

[MickZagger]

22 now, he has a chance for 30, which is Skiles' NBA record

He's not getting 8 assists in less than 5 minutes.

 

[44Thrilla]

I didn't say it was a good chance, just said it was possible. Probably the closest somebody has been in a while.

 

[illmatic99]

Westbrook is like the guard version of Maggette. And Ben Gordon is beastin it up.

 

[illmatic99]

Charlie V FOR THREE!!

DET gets a one point lead on OKC with 7 secs left. OKC ball.

OKC's offense in the fourth has been trash. It's just been Westbrook taking crazy ass drives with no hope at making a shot, and step back long Js by Durant.

 

[MickZagger]

Jeff Green with the game winner.

 

[illmatic99]

Gimme a fucking break. Green gets a layup?! are you serious, Detroit?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

24 dimes for Rondo!

T-Law with 18 on 5-9 shooting.

K-Luv with 17 pts 16 rebs in 27 min.

 

[illmatic99]

MEM-DAL comin down to a close finish.

 

[MickZagger]

MEM-DAL comin down to a close finish.

Yea, Memphis with the ball with 30 seconds left.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Thabeet looks even worse this year. It's pretty sad that he's already regressed.

First two games:

0 PPG
3 RPG

 

[illmatic99]

Horrible last minute execution by DAL.

 

[illmatic99]

Dragic is destroying Blake.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So we learned tonight that Rondo couldn't play with Roy, Monte is a very good coach that we should have kept to replace Nate, Love is an elite rebounder, Bayless looks nice in a more uptempo system.

 

[MickZagger]

Sure, if 6 points and 4 turnovers is your version of "nice".

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Serge Ibaka
16 pts
10 rebs
3 blks
25 min

 

[MickZagger]

I tell you what, this Warriors team is exciting. On an 18-2 run since halftime against the Clips. Ellis and Curry in the backcourt and Lee and Biedrins in the frontcourt makes for a pretty exciting team. They're my darkhorse for the playoffs this year.

 

[MickZagger]

Steph Curry just went down with a real bad sprained ankle.

Yeah, exciting if you like watching a team that has no chance of sustained success because of their style of play.

 

[illmatic99]

Ouch.

 

[MickZagger]

Phoenix has had some playoff success despite being bad defensively for awhile now. Keith Smart is atleast preaching defense, unlike Nellie.

 

[MickZagger]

Ouch.

The guys had chronic sprained ankles since he got to the league. I feel for him, I have really weak ankles as well.

How many ankle sprains can he have had in 1 year?
