there are some other guys that he's able to bother, but against Paul he seems to be two steps behind all the time

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:07 (ten years ago) link

the hell are the refs looking at?

yeah lin's not an awful defender i don't think, but paul's too quick

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:08 (ten years ago) link

harden's caught front rim on all his 3s, doesn't seem to have any legs prob due to getting busted by redick

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:30 (ten years ago) link

although his defensive effort is nonexistent so idk why he's tired

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:31 (ten years ago) link

why is Mullens on a playoff team

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:34 (ten years ago) link

mullens has looked great i think!

he's a dead man's bargnani

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:39 (ten years ago) link

crazy that houston is still in this game, seems like clippers are dominating but every time you check the score it's 10 points

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:40 (ten years ago) link

Rockets are really good at that

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:46 (ten years ago) link

man, paul

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:48 (ten years ago) link

"That might be the one on Fox Sports 1!" oh god, just give it up FoxSports

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:56 (ten years ago) link

the jamal crawford to ryan hollins lob, of course

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:56 (ten years ago) link

harden must be hurt because i don't think he played this whole 4th quarter

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 05:57 (ten years ago) link

Lin and Parsons must be tanning partners cos dudes are looking mad bronzed.

obvs

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 06:03 (ten years ago) link

I am totally in love with this Warriors team and Barnes hasn't even played yet. Please stay healthy is all I ask.

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 06:07 (ten years ago) link

Speights still hasn't passed the ball yet in 4 games so far I swear it <3

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 06:07 (ten years ago) link

yeah man knock on wood but the playoffs this year in both conferences could be really insane

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 06:10 (ten years ago) link

1st round in the east should be lolworthy but then it will get really good. West could be good beginning to end.

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 06:13 (ten years ago) link

That Iggy pass even excited my wife no joke. Might not see a better pass this year.

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 06:16 (ten years ago) link

He made sweet behind the back passes against the Lakers and Clippers too. The Warriors are moving the ball so well.

polyphonic, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 08:39 (ten years ago) link

goddamn, scoring-ass Clippers. I don't know if their defense has improved yet, but their offense is starting to look as scary as it should with the pieces they have.

yeah they are. Bogut and Lee are the best passing 4-5 combo in the league imo.

Me & Mahomies (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 14:47 (ten years ago) link

haha that ATL video is A+ imo

twist boat veterans for stability (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 5 November 2013 15:26 (ten years ago) link

kev, the refs looking right at that foul. no need to enhance it.

Aimless, Tuesday, 5 November 2013 22:17 (ten years ago) link

took me like 5 seconds to realize you weren't talking about our kevin

Finally get to watch the Pistons tonight, spent the whole offseason wondering what Smith/Jennings/Drummond/Monroe would look like on the court.

PG and Lance are both playing way beyond where they were last season. PG learned some crazy Eurostep that he's been scoring off of a lot-- driving from sideline, takes the first step away from the basket, like a running back finding his hole, and then cut back sharply for his last steps.

Kinda sucks that the better Lance plays, the less chance Indy will be able to sign him in the offseason. He's been like nutzo Playoffs Lance so far, plus a new outside shot.

Granger's deal is expiring and Lance wants to stay, I think it'll work out

Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 6 November 2013 00:00 (ten years ago) link

Naw, all their cap space is basically spoken for. They'd have to take a tax hit if they resigned Lance, and the Pacers ownership has never gone over tax iirc. Although if he keeps playing like this they might be willing to go over the tax just for business reasons, dude could have a serious break-out season.

75 seconds of harden seriously not giving a fuck about defense, this is absurd

Clay, Wednesday, 6 November 2013 00:09 (ten years ago) link

Hahaha "oh shit" at :42.

the tax is gonna be over 70m next year I think, it should be do-able: http://www.hoopsworld.com/indiana-pacers-team-salary

Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 6 November 2013 00:14 (ten years ago) link

I think in most scenarios where Lance earns a 12+m contract you're probably winning a title so it's not a huge concern I don't think haha

Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 6 November 2013 00:15 (ten years ago) link

came here to post that harden vid, whats his problem damn

lag∞n, Wednesday, 6 November 2013 00:27 (ten years ago) link

They'll have about $4M to spend on three roster spots w/no roster rearranging, seriously doubt they have money to resign Lance w/o moving some combo of Scola/Mahinmi/GHill.

Call me Shitmael (CompuPost), Wednesday, 6 November 2013 00:28 (ten years ago) link

his d is so broken it's like he never learned how to play it, like basic 7th grade stuff xp
