I mean, this is just comes across as such a condescending, arrogant thing to say. "If you know basketball (like me), otherwise you obviously don't know wtf you're even watching". LOL false.

Clark,

Not sure if you realize it, but you're talking to a man who could be an NBA GM if he wanted to, but it's not really worth his time.

how are they even close to playing like crap? even w/the reb issues they are still doing well defensively (42 pts on ~46 possession by my count) and they are obv cruising on offense

In the NBA if you can shoot 33+% from beyond the arc then your a good 3pt shooter.

same % for pong.

"If I had to go back on it, I probably would do it a little bit different," James said. "But I'm happy with the decision I made. There's always going to be a misunderstanding. I don't know what I would [have done], but I definitely would have changed it."

they're going to have to play a lot better if they want to overthrow the world.

they have to rebound better. what else are they doing poorly? just b/c they aren't playing as well as they possibly could doesn't mean they are playing like crap. they're rebounding poorly and as a result they are only up ~15 instead of ~20 or a bit more. if the lakers, celtics, etc reproduced this exact line no one would say they have to play better to reach expectations

OKC going for 3-0 tonight. Russel Westbrook is a beast and might be the best player on the team.

Is it wrong that I still follow these guys given I am a NW resident? I like what Portland has done but I still feel like they are a rival more than the new home team. Plus I live about 7 hours away so I can't really hit up a game. FML, when can we relocate Memphis here?

Worst post of TZ so far

1) Why wouldn't you want 06 BDavis or Jackson. They were legit. How the **** did the Warriors win 48 games then?

2) Westbrook comment needs no explanation. Just ******ed.

you know what 33% from ebyond the arc is slightly above average.

mid 30's = good 3pt shooter or at least consistent enough.

tarheel if that post was directed at me then your right.

Just booked a bet and looking for TZ's thoughts. One side is saying Miami will finish top3 in defensive efficiency, the other side is saying they will not. Which side do you like?

it might be close but I'll take that they will finish in top3.

while spoelstra is no tom thib or mike brown. Look at what he did the previous two seasons with MIA in the 2nd half of the season. they were a good defensive team.

at 1:1 odds? I'd take them not being top 3. I think their defense is going to be very good though.

I'm still shocked the Hornets one last night. Doesn't really matter if Belinelli starts when Buckets gets 30 mpg off the bench.

I wouldn't mind writing up some stuff for the blog as well. It's hard to get motivated enough to write long analysis type stuff here since it gets lost in the shuffle so easily, but a blog would be fun.

there aren't many ppl that could actually say that and have it be true, eh?
