The Official 2013-14 Around The NBA Thread......

[Run BJM]

Koufos just facial-ed Bogut. lol

Harden has not been a very good player in late game situations. That leaves Houston at 8-5.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Defense is their biggest issue outside the egos of Dwight and Harden.

Re: The 2013-14 Around The NBA Thread......

Lmao at Houston!!! Anyone else getting pleasure watching that team suck like this? And glad minny took a shit too!

 

[Pinwheel1]

Iggy with one of my biggest pet peaves in the NBA. Has 10 seconds to shoot the ball in regulation and waits until 2 seconds and ends up with NO decent shot. IDIOTIC

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Love is a stat monster but his defense is horrific!

I've watched about every MN game this season and he does one of two things on defense:

Moves out of the way hoping for a help defender or totally gives up contesting the shot to grab a potential rebound.

 

[Blazer Fanatic]

Kevin Love continues to be who we thought he was. A once-in-a-generation stat beast who doesn't make his teammates better. I wonder how much he'd be getting killed on this board if he put in literally no effort on defense as a Blazer, which is basically what he does every night.

Dominated by Griffin. Love doing his best LaMarcus Aldridge impression - 30 sec mark: http://www.nba.com/games/20131120/LACMIN/gameinfo.html

MVP post move right there. lol

Minni falls, GS falls, Houston falls. Only 3 teams in the West (Port 6, SA 5, Meph 4) have 4 or more road wins.

Chicago comes off a B2B vs Denver to face Port on Fri.
GS comes off a B2B vs Lakers and to face Port on Sat.

Blazers win these two games and the national media is gonna choke on some crow for another week. Lose 1 or both, and we'll hear more of the same cynical doubt.

Go Blazers!

Speaking of epic Matthews' quotes: “I’m going to kill everything... The Game got this mixed tape out titled Operation Kill Everything. That’s all I’m going to do. Gotta take respect.”

except LA makes that shot.

 

[Denny Crane]

Damn that's a tall lineup, I used to love to do that shit on nba2k

The Bulls in 80-81 had a starting lineup of 6'6" Bobby Wilkerson, 6'7" Reggie Theus, 7'2" Artis Gilmore, 6'9" David Greenwood, and 6'9" Larry Kenon.

At Indiana, Wilkerson took the jump balls to start the game over Kent Benson.

Is it wrong to root for the Clippers tonight? I want OKC to lose ground on us.

Always had a feeling he was JJ Hickson-esque, but never watched him enough to know for certain. I'll take LMA thank you very much.

Amare has to be one of the worst signings in recent memory.

Who is saying we are going to win both? I think everyone, if they are honest, says at best we split. If we do take both, then yes. But the media would have to be even stupider than I think they are (which is I think they are the dumbest around) to say they have to go 2-0 or they suck.

The first pick could have been Nate friggan' Wolters and the Cavs would've gotten more use out of him.

The worst part about that is, is anyone really surprised? He had to have been one of the most underwhelming top picks ever at draft time.

Nah. They should have stayed in-house and selected the ball boy.

Heh. I didn't even know who he was. lol.

I don't think Gilbert Little would have liked that. ME WANT THAT PLAYER NOW DADDY.

Reggie Miller saying, "This is the best offensive start I've seen Boozer ever have."

Hickson guarding Boozer. Ouch.

Yeah I loved hickson when he played for us, but he's the player that takes sooo much away defensively for offense.
