Haha the Brow is good enough to overcome Monty

No more futurology pls.

annoying and wrong and not nba.

Flying cars would already exist if it weren't for the governments. Powers have been stifling technology since the dawn of man

Hope some people are starting to reconsider the LOLOVERRATEDness of Melo


I think both teams improve with the Kevmart for Smiff swap. Smith is a better contract anyways and would fit the WILves a lot better than Kevmart. Even though Kevmart is all shooting/no defense I think he'd compliment Melo pretty well, and he compliments Melo a lot better than Love IMO. WILves need a baller

good points. Regarding "the skills players have coming in"....

I wonder how much the "culture" of basketball has changed due to the 3 point line. Once I learned correct form, one of the very first things I started working on was range. In high school my ball-handling was quite poor, but I could be useful because I had range quite a few feet behind the 3 point line. For me, this came more naturally than ball-handling or court awareness, and I found it natural to focus on it because it had very real applications to playing in pickup games. Is this something that simply wasn't valued or thought of as "impressive" before the 3 point line(so kids didn't work on it)? Why would shooting from farther out not be a natural thing for everyone to work on? It seems incredibly intuitive to me that you would try to test yourself more and more with regards to range.

the espn games are pretty good. heat at nets. nets have won 4 straight. and then lal at lac. last few years, that is a fun matchup. might become a real rivalry. the clips arent going anywhere with doc and cp3 (5 year contract) there for at least the next few years.

Seth makes a good point in that players in the recent era love shooting 3's and so thats been instilled at an early age. You can't punish/criticize NBA teams for their not already being a 3 point era where people grew up with the 3 point shot. It takes/took time for the league to adjust in ways that weren't directly attributable to NBA incompetence.

On phone but someone post the pic
Of SwaggyP roasting Gilbert arenas first Instagram selfie. LOL

so these latest okc stuggles without westie only add to his legend.

harden impressed me vs the lakers. he still was lazy on d and got some bs calls. but he really is strong and does keep his head up and sees the court and does a have little bit of that oscar quality where he is such a threat and command attention and has a great handle but also good court vision and ability to make a play

i call em like i see em. if he can play like that consistently and vs the best teams then he is great. if he is hurt or lazy or i dunno a choker or just gets choked by long defense...then no.

There's no way that Minnesota gets better if they trade Kmart for JR Smith. Smith is untradable. He's on pace to become the first player in NBA history to play >30 mpg and shoot worse than 35% from the field. He's the most deadly and incurable strain of cancerous AIDS imaginable.

Funnily enough, Ricky Rubio is also on pace to become to first player in NBA history to do this. Would be unreal having two guys out there who can't hit a shot and take a decent amount of them.

Their close games record would certainly improve

Love would make a perfect Laker. God fk him to hell.

Because they'd be against worse teams.

JR Smith and Rubio would actually be the 27th and 28th player respectively to play >30 mpg and shoot worse than 35% from the field. If you want to change it to "modern NBA history" or "post merger", then yeah.

Ok yeah. I never ever look at pre 3pt era.

So i broke my pinky playing bball this week and its ridiculously frustrating how I basically can't do anything. Can't multi table poker, no sports, no lifting, can't play video games can't even light a ****ing bong. ****'s ****ing ridiculous

Smiff's top end range is much better than KevMart. Kevin Martin is horrible.

Thayer,

Tape pinky to ring finger. Kobe multitabled with a broken pinky that way once.

speaking of kobe

No, but he is limited in a particular way which negatively affects the wolves in late close games. Smith is VASTLY superior - even getting up a terrible contested mid range pull up is better than what they are getting now since Martin has to try to draw a foul which will never be called, can't really go to Pek because late game post ups are lol (especially with Brewer and Rubio as the "shooters" spacing) Rubio isn't even looking to score and Love is willing, but not really able under those circumstances.

i heard someone dropped their fat dick on the d-league the other day

loladelman

yeah, I'm sure Shabazz is the answer. Marshon Brooks is dropping buckets in the DLeague, which is still AAAA.

So Channing Frye takes about 3 fewer 2pt fga/game and is otherwise having basically a better season than Randerson.

Frye is having a crazy good year. I did not see that coming

Yea this is probably a pretty bad oversight on my part because Pek is quite good at getting opposing bigs off of their comfort zones, he's a bit slow on rotations but for a man his size he shouldn't be expected to excel at that.

You're also right about Turiaf, he definitely gives 200% on the floor, he just isn't very good

Have not seen Dieng play this season vs NBA competition
