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

[BlazerCaravan]

Minny with a losing record. And why would people want love over Aldridge again?

He's the new Shareef Abdur Rahim. Great stats, but a born loser.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

So the Twolves are 8th in Hollingers power rankings, but 13th in the Western Conference. That is just awesome!

 

[BrianFromWA]

To be fair, they're 1/2 game out of 3rd if they're in the East.

 

[magnifier661]

To be fair, they're 1/2 game out of 3rd if they're in the East.

But the ranking is for the entire NBA. They are 13th in the west and there are 3 teams with better records than them in the east. So technically they are 16th in the entire NBA

UGH

@PelicansNBA: Anthony Davis suffered a non-displaced fracture in his left hand. Will not return tonight. A timetable is TBD

We play them on the 21st and 30th. I would think a broken bone may take a month to heal?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Paul Pierce is out 2-4 weeks with a broken bone in his hand.

Minny with a losing record. And why would people want love over Aldridge again?

Only NBA Live junkies and fantasy hoop freaks would want Love over LMA.

Love continues to proves he's not a franchise player, even though he puts up franchise player stats.

Brooklyn is a dumpster fire. Who would have guessed that this far into the season that the Celtics without Rondo would have a better record than the Nets?

 

[Pinwheel1]

Jazz up on Houston with 2 min. by 5

Edit: Nice win by the Jazz. They have some offensive talent on this team. They will be tough at home

Me.

I was never a fan of the Nets' collection of heaping salary hell. I understood when the Celts did it. But taking two of those pieces 5-7 years later, plus adding more of the same to the heap, never really seemed like a good idea to me.

 

[THE HCP]

Jazz win again.....AMAZING!

Now off to watch that triple OT Bulls game!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Mirza Teletovic has demanded a trade from the Nets. I don't blame him.

A 3pt specialist and capable rebounder.

Claver for Teletovic!

I'm not sure the Nets would do that, but I'd offer Leonard for Teletovic any day.

[Rastapopoulos]

This is kind of interesting.
Notes: Indiana were 8-0 when leading at the half before last night.
All you have to do is win the first half against Golden State and you're set.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Now off to watch that triple OT Bulls game!

I think we broke the Bulls. How soon before they blow 'em up? Sadly Deng and Noah earn too much for us to come up with a decent package for them.

 

[THE HCP]

That game was almost 4 hours!

I don't know why teams keep dropping him.

 

[KingSpeed]

I don't know why teams keep dropping him.

Because he's short.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Inconsistent. Annoying antics.

Jason Kidd is so low budge.

 

[THE HCP]

Wade out tonight with bum knee.

Well that was fast.

 

[julius]

hehe, different philosophies. Yeah, Frank actually had philosophies on how to coach and Jason Kidd had philosophies that included having players run into him and knock his drink over.

 

[Strenuus]

lmfao. I can't believe how idiotic the nets are.. I mean, the media had to sit there over the summer and go "We're hawking THIS team?" It's seriously one of the worst mash-ups ever.

I knew they'd falter, and they are. Kidd will be gone by the end of the month.

Isn't there Tax amount this season more than most of the other 30 teams' payroll?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I took this to be another example of Kidd's tactical genius. He knows that he's more likely to get fired if there's an obvious replacement waiting as an assistant coach.

 

[Natebishop3]

We should start a pool for when Kidd gets the axe.
