THE "OFFICIAL" AROUND THE NBA 2012-13 THREAD........... (4 Viewers)

[MickZagger]

Garnett supposedly vetoed a trade to the Nuggets.

My question, why would the Nuggets trade for Garnett. He's not a player that's going to put them over the hump. They'd obviously have to give up some young talent to get him as well.

Pacers win 3 games in 3 nights.

Question is ... why did they have 3 games in 3 nights?

I believe one of the games (Bulls) was to make up for the one they had to postpone earlier in the year because of the blizzard in Indy.

Aha, that would make sense. SportsCenter didn't mention that relevant point. Yep, was the 12/26 game against CHI that was postponed.

KG's price tag at his age is asinine.

The guy is pushing 40 and they want prospects, cap, and picks.

Really is annoying.

I'll echo those sentiments.

Thank God the Warriors had the Thunder tonight, otherwise the Grizz would be sitting in 6th place right now after getting blown out by the Hawks. I'm not ready to hit the panic button just yet though.

In fact, Run BJM, our next game is against ya'll. You down for an old school av/sig bet on this one?

 

[illmatic99]

Grizz in a total freefall. Seems like there's some discord between Hollins and management. I can see them losing a few more in a row.

Do we want in on that action? Could we get Barney for JJ and crap, or is that even worth trying for?

 

[santeesioux]

Bargnani sucks and i would hate to use up our capspace on him.

plus a million, stay as far away from that "pile" as possible

But he got a rookie of the year vote, and is currently playing while the other guy fell over dead from the thighs down... that makes him de facto ROY. </kingspeed>

Portland isn't a cosmopolitan enough city with enough Italians in it to keep this guy anyway.

That makes sense for neither team.

Hell, both should just amnesty those guys.

The best part of that replay is John Legend screaming at the end!

I thought that guy looked familiar!
