Anyone been suggesting that the Knicks should tank the season to get a better slot in the draft? Of course, they better be sure they fall into one of the top 5 picks or it goes to the Rockets. In fact, should the Heat tank if Wade misses many more games? Mainly, I’m surprised at those that have suggested the Spurs should tank to get a better draft pick.

Yep, that was impressive of him. But his arrogance annoys the hell out of me. Combine that with KG’s antics and I can never root for the C’s.

Even against the Lakers? Unfortunately for me, I would root for the lakers in the situation. That’s how much I don’t like KG.

Just boxscore watching here. Rubio’s shot seems to be coming back down to earth (hopefully not waaaay down, like Euroleague down).

He almost airballed a wide-open 3 earlier. His court vision remains superb, though, and he dictates the pace of the game.
He was just guarding Jimmer. Hype-a-palooza!

Milwaukee lost another game on the road, they are 0-8 now. Philly stays unbeaten at home.
Both teams played hard
I hope Philly stays hot and have a legit run in the East.

They are deep. I don’t know if Hawes can keep up this level of play (specially his rebounding) but if they stay hot, they could win the Atlantic division ahead of both the Knicks and the Celtics, which would be awesome.

Everytime OKC tries to make a run, the C’s find a way to claw their way back into the game. Pierce is on a mini-run right now.

I’m not sure whether Rondo tries to pad his assists stats or he’s just afraid of going to the rim and getting fouled.
"Deep down we all know that swagger comes hand in hand with insecurity. We strut not to convince competitors of our dominance; we strut to convince ourselves."
Matthew Powell
You could be right. If Tony had the ball on the break on that last play like Rondo did, he’d have taken it to the hole, and either possibly been knocked on his ass, or scored.
I'm not as good as I once was...and that's just the cold, hard truth.
OKC with only 9 assists for the entire game.

If OKC was playing against any other team (except the Mavs), I’d be inclined to hope they lose. But I really dislike the Celtics.
"Deep down we all know that swagger comes hand in hand with insecurity. We strut not to convince competitors of our dominance; we strut to convince ourselves."

You sound like Lakers fan. I can only cheer against OKC when they play the Spurs. Such a nice team they are.

Westbrook’s the only player on that team I don’t like.

Let’s not start calling each other Laker fans, OK?
OKC is the best team in the West right now. I want teams ahead of the Spurs to lose.
Also, I like the Thunder, but they are far from being my second favorite team. I respect that they are yours, but the whole “OKC is the new San Antonio” thing doesn’t work for me.

Sorry, I didn’t mean you were a Laker fan, it’s just that most of the people I ever discuss basketball with are for whatever reason Lakers fans, and this kind of sentiment (wanting OKC to lose and also hating Cs with passion) is very typical for them. I didn’t mean to do any name calling, sorry.

I know. It’s cool man. I just feel that expressing a dislike for this particular Cs team and wanting OKC to lose because they are ahead of the Spurs is not a “Lakers fan” thing to say. That’s all.
"Deep down we all know that swagger comes hand in hand with insecurity. We strut not to convince competitors of our dominance; we strut to convince ourselves."
Matthew Powell
Westbrook has been lights out, too.
I'm not as good as I once was...and that's just the cold, hard truth.
If Thabo can hit the 3 consistently, the Thunder gets extra scary.
"Deep down we all know that swagger comes hand in hand with insecurity. We strut not to convince competitors of our dominance; we strut to convince ourselves."
Matthew Powell
A defender that can knock down the 3 when needed is a great weapon to have.
I'm not as good as I once was...and that's just the cold, hard truth.
He’s currently shooting 55.6% from beyond the arc. If keeps that up, or at least on the higher 40’s, it’ll be tougher to play OKC.

I almost got into it with a Bulls fan at work about how OKC may be the most dangerous team in the league this year. He got wind of D-Wade being out indefinately and was already calling championship. Silly guy.
I'm not as good as I once was...and that's just the cold, hard truth.
I hate showboating after a shot, but that ‘guns in the holster’ move was funny….

Didn’t like how Westbrook exaggerated that move though.

I’m picking under. It should be under considering that both Gasol and Bynum should dominate inside against the Mavs, but there’s no way of knowing what Kobe will do.

I think, I am a mavsfan for this one night. The Mavs had two good postseasons – they lost to us being #2 in 2010, then swept the Lakers and beat the Heat in 2011. These were all good deeds, so I cannot hate them as much now as I used to in 2006.
Both teams played hard
I’m still glad they lost to the Heat in 06, and to the W’s in 07. They could be sitting on 3 titles right now. * shudders * The horror…

You know part of me thinks that Howard wouldn’t want to go to the Lakers because there’s been so many great Laker centers (Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem, Shaq) that there is no way he’d ever become the best center in Laker history. But if he goes somewhere like the Clips or Nets he is their best center starting on day one.

Whew
I just got back from Mavs Moneyball.
They are…odd people.
"Fuck this shit. Is this fucking season over yet? It is? Jesus H. motherfucking Christ on a stick! Get Nick Holt on the phone NOW! Stupid motherfucker forces us to score touchdowns on every possession, and we still can't win the Alamo Bowl? Hey, asshole! It's Steve Sarkisian. You're fucking FIRED, you FUCK!"
Crying foul at the prediction that they won’t make the WCF and that they’re too small.
They completely deny that they’re back to being the same Mavs with no ability to finish inside and players losing heart and settling for outside shots too much.
"Fuck this shit. Is this fucking season over yet? It is? Jesus H. motherfucking Christ on a stick! Get Nick Holt on the phone NOW! Stupid motherfucker forces us to score touchdowns on every possession, and we still can't win the Alamo Bowl? Hey, asshole! It's Steve Sarkisian. You're fucking FIRED, you FUCK!"
Also, no one wants to point out how stupidly Terry played.

Stupid motherfucker forces us to score touchdowns on every possession, and we still can't win the Alamo Bowl? Hey, asshole! It's Steve Sarkisian. You're fucking FIRED, you FUCK!"
That’s another thing
They keep getting mad at people who point out that their front office took everything that made the difference from 2011 to previous years and threw it out the window. They say Tyson and Barea and DeShawn shouldn’t be talked about as being so good for the Mavs, as evidenced by how well their teams are doing now.
Well of course Tyson’s team isn’t doing well. The Knicks have a piece of shit coach and a star that can’t do anything but score.
"Fuck this shit. Is this fucking season over yet? It is? Jesus H. motherfucking Christ on a stick! Get Nick Holt on the phone NOW! Stupid motherfucker forces us to score touchdowns on every possession, and we still can't win the Alamo Bowl? Hey, asshole! It's Steve Sarkisian. You're fucking FIRED, you FUCK!"
Really? Wow. Yeah, you’re right about the Knicks. They should let Mike Woodson be the head coach.
They can deny all they want but we all know the truth! Ha ha ha!
By the way, congrats to your Cavs! They’re looking good so far.
"D'oh!"
thanks…….
I actually wish they weren’t. This team, with the front office not known for making good choices, can’t become a contender again with just Kyrie and Tristian. I want them to get more pieces from the draft, since pieces aren’t going to come from free agency. The Cavs need a new center to help Varejao, a new power forward to take Antwan’s place, and a new small forward. Omri Casspi is not as good as he was in Sacramento.
"Fuck this shit. Is this fucking season over yet? It is? Jesus H. motherfucking Christ on a stick! Get Nick Holt on the phone NOW! Stupid motherfucker forces us to score touchdowns on every possession, and we still can't win the Alamo Bowl? Hey, asshole! It's Steve Sarkisian. You're fucking FIRED, you FUCK!"
also, I hope Manu gets better soon. This team has made a great effort to surround the big 3 with athletic young players. They’ve replaced Horry, Finley, and Vaughn with Neal, Splitter, and Hill. They can still win a title.

wait a sec…i messed up…what happened to Hill again?

complaining about the refs?

they also keep saying they’ll turn it on later. I don’t see it happening.

I really don’t know why they have Inside the NBA outside, the fans are always annoying.

Nah everytime they have it outside the fans never shutup

i’d be waving my hands and trying to be seen too if I was in the same spot as the TNT halftime show.

Not me, just because there’s a camera dosnt mean you should waive your hands like an idiot and be obnoxious, but thats just my opinion.

you are a perfect fit for the Spurs

I am with Kevin here, it’s mo5king 21st century now, and unless you are a Laker fan, you shouldn’t necessarily react to a camera like you have never seen the thing before. Besides, jumping and waving hands is different from screaming and yelling. Because of those idiots I almost couldn’t hear that Sir Charles considers Portland and Denver two best teams in the West.
Both teams played hard
oh man…then you almost missed out!
"Fuck this shit. Is this fucking season over yet? It is? Jesus H. motherfucking Christ on a stick! Get Nick Holt on the phone NOW!

Of course, if you are a Laker fan, you have no choice but to behave as an obnoxious idiot, but the rest of us do have a choice and therefore a responsibility.
Both teams played hard
I was kidding

portland and denver? man, the west is really screwy this year.
