They're Cut from the Same Cloth in Terms of COMPETITIVENESS, so It Wasn't Surprising to See the 2 of them Battling FIERCELY... REED Didn't See the Game, so THANKS for Posting This Bro!!!...Smart's Jumper NEVER Looked Better...If He Can Knock Down Shots CONSISTENTLY (a BIG "If", Admittedly), he Could Flirt w/All-Star Contention... REED
Question? Are the Sixers STILL fucking tanking? How many top draft picks do they need to stockpile before they can compete? Are prognosticators still calling their top management genius level, for having to foresight to suck balls and draft poorly year after year after year? ::
Porzingis LED the Knicks over Rockets. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/XhG710VLc6A" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> This guy is the goods. ROY.
Harden is complete shit this year. I almost feel bad for him, but he's an arrogant asshole who's game is heavily dependent on the refs so I don't feel bad. Last year I was laughing when Harden was being compared to great shooting guards like prime versions of Kobe, and Wade.
Last year I would be on various forums where the question was is Harden better than prime Kobe? Is Harden better than prime Wade? Is Harden better than prime T-Mac? I was shaking my head in confusion. Put Harden in the early 00's with hand checking and more physical play overall, and see how effective he woulda been. I don't take anything away from ANY other current star. Lebron, Curry, and Durant are all amazing players. But Harden, that faggot is manufactured. He's the creation of a foul dependent style and THE worst shooting guard era ever. Circa 01-03, I'd take Kobe, T-Mac, Carter, AI, Pierce, and Ray Allen over this bearded joke.
Give it up for the Dubs. They're about the tie the record tonight with a 15-0 start. Up by 16 on Denver in the 4th. On Tuesday they'll break the record and go to 16-0, as they host the horrible Lakers.
Glad they're Allowing Kawhi Leonard to Be the "MAN" Offensively, as his Talents Warrant...Wonder how Aldridge Feels about though, Since he Apparently Didn't Like Lillard Outshining him in Portland... REED
Aldridge is averaging his lowest stats in years. Not sure if he's having hard feelings over Kawhi but what bothered him about Lillard was the stuff with the Billboards, fame, stardom and all that, which Kawhi clearly don't care about. Pop was straight with him, he didn't make promises, only assured him that the franchise was all about winning. If he's upset about that, then I'd rather not have him on the team.
Did Aldridge actually say all that about Lillard or is that an assumption? Because I always thought Aldridge left because Portland isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
Aldridge has a heart condition. Probably wants to win something before he drops dead on the basketball court.
I don't think the 96 Bulls record ever gets broken, but this year the Dubs are the FIRST team who might have a REALISTIC chance of going for it. I don't think they're gonna do it. At the VERY BEST they hit 70.... I don't think they're gonna get to 72. But it's gonna be fun as Hell to watch them try. But, even if they break last years wins and get to 68-69, they'll still have a case for most impressive season ever.
These Warriors are a team for the ages. Their chemistry is insane, and the way they dominate on both ends of the floor is ridiculous. I think we might be witnessing the next great NBA dynasty.
It was a very well known fact in the Blazers org. That and other things he disliked about the way they ran the team made him leave. The idea of playing back home also helped the Spurs even though he's from Houston.
Porzingis is Definitely LEGIT... People Keep Comparing him to Dirk, but to REED's Eye's, Dude is a BIGGER, TALLER, More OFFENSIVE Minded Version of Andrei Kirilenko...Like Porzingis, Kirilenko was ATHLETIC as Hell... Porzingis or Okafor will Win R.O.Y...We Could Even See the Award SPLIT, Which Happens from Time to Time... REED
Fuck Rondo...Flat Out QUIT on the Dallas Mavericks AND Cost them a 1st Round Draft Pick, in the Process...Didn't Come Close to Playing this Well in Dallas... Motherfucker... REED~
Well, that's true. But it had more to do with playing for Carlisle, who's a disciplinarian vs. playing for Karl, who has no choice but to give him free reign to run the offense. Rondo needs room to operate, and a somewhat "yes man" as a coach. Both Rivers and Karl fill that description.
Yup, it's ovah. Should've quit two years ago but he had too much pride. He'll be greatly missed, not by me though. I'm a Spurs fan.
Speaking of the Spurs, the conference finals in 01 is when I became a believer in Kobe. He absolutely, positively OBLITERATED the Spurs' defense in that series, I'll never forget it. It was at that point I thought "This guy is special". I still hated him for years after that, but I always knew he was great.
Yup, he crushed our dreams a couple of times. Became an unstoppable offensive force for a couple of years. The 81 pts game was unreal and we won't see anything like it for a long ass time.
The league is different now. Guys are obsessed with analytics and efficiency, therefore even if they COULD go for a big scoring game like that, they won't because they're too afraid to mess up their advanced stats. I've heard many people criticize that game, but they must not have watched it live. The Lakers were down big in that game. Kobe single handedly brought them back and won the game by basically outscoring the whole Raptors team by himself. ONLY two guys in the league who are offensively talented enough to have a similar scoring game are Curry and KD.
