warriors injuries no bueno

Spottie, Sunday, 24 November 2013 05:56 (ten years ago) link

i have no idea what happened here

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 05:56 (ten years ago) link

robin lopez averaging about a block per possession in the fourth is one thing i guess

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 05:58 (ten years ago) link

well the blazers have won 10 in a row, including back to back 21 point and 14 point comeback wins. They won 11 road games last year and have won 7 this November. This is unreal.

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 06:06 (ten years ago) link

they may be good

vintage wade dunk i posted about last night

The Spurs were already well on their way to a 126-96 victory over Cleveland on Saturday night when Matt Bonner saw his chance.

To say he seized it would be not quite correct. Truth is, Tony Parker handed it to him.

Bonner and Parker arrived at a defensive rebound at the same moment, late in the second quarter of a game that had already become a laugher. Either player could have claimed the ball and started the fast break.

For some reason, Parker — the Spurs' All-Star point guard — backed off, and 18,581 fans at the AT&T Center were treated to about 1.2 seconds of “Magic Bonner.”

The Spurs' 6-foot-10 forward began dribbling upcourt. He raised one finger in the air, miming a play call (“an iso for me, obviously,” Bonner said). And then, in a blink, the dream was dead.

“I would have dribbled through everybody and dunked it,” Bonner said. “Unfortunately, Tony came back for the ball and ruined it. That was the end of my point-guard career.”

magic bonner sounds like a dirty euphemism

damn wade

the blazers will definitely come back down to earth. they aren't the spurs. but they seem like a lock to avoid the lottery this year.

Aimless, Sunday, 24 November 2013 18:52 (ten years ago) link

their point differential is nothing special for a team with such a great record. they're good but i don't think you could call them elite. there look to be only 3 l33t teams right now -- the heat, spurs, and pacers

k3vin k., Sunday, 24 November 2013 18:59 (ten years ago) link

pretty funny how 2 of the 3 best teams in the league are in the east but then the rest of the top 15 are in the west

k3vin k., Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:00 (ten years ago) link

yup

lag∞n, Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:01 (ten years ago) link

tho doubt thatll be true by seasons end

lag∞n, Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:01 (ten years ago) link

yeah, i think by season;s end stern will mercy kill a few teams on his way out tho

shiny trippy people holding bandz (m bison), Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:11 (ten years ago) link

If he told the bucks they had to just forfeit the rest of their games and move to Seattle for next year I would forgive him for everything he's ever done wrong

Bobcats going back to purple teal and grey when they become the hornets yesssss #starterjacket

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:16 (ten years ago) link

some jerkholes im milwaukee wd have a hunger strike and demand the return of the bucks and then some1 wd move the bulls to milwaukee and chicago wd start a riot and then theyd move the magic to chicago and orlando wd go to disneyworld because what else is there to do

shiny trippy people holding bandz (m bison), Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:16 (ten years ago) link

Bobcats going back to purple teal and grey when they become the hornets

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:54 (ten years ago) link

just tried to fill out an all-star ballot.....i guess afflalo has been the best guard in the east this year? what a joke

k3vin k., Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:56 (ten years ago) link

charlotte hornets in teal and purple is maybe the ultimate #90skid thing to me

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:56 (ten years ago) link

ha i thought about polling the east guards all-star list

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:57 (ten years ago) link

乒乓, Sunday, 24 November 2013 19:59 (ten years ago) link

Details aren't clear, but ESPN's source says Rose and the Bulls might opt to reattach the meniscus, which would keep him out four to six months.

Clay, Sunday, 24 November 2013 21:09 (ten years ago) link

blow this team up, I don't wanna watch this shit for 6 more mos

from what i read this is p much the only reasonable option cause you can come back faster if you just remove it but then youre m/l fd long term

lag∞n, Sunday, 24 November 2013 21:43 (ten years ago) link

is wall better than kyrie irving??

Aimless, Sunday, 24 November 2013 21:52 (ten years ago) link

So very possible that Rose will heal up right around the playoffs and we can wring our hands in consternation all over again over whether or not he should play

乒乓, Sunday, 24 November 2013 21:53 (ten years ago) link

ha yes

lag∞n, Sunday, 24 November 2013 21:56 (ten years ago) link

Didn't want to say anything because I have a soft spot for the Bulls and wanted them to do well / liked the Mike Dunleavy signing over the summer, but was secretly worried that bringing in DunJr. was gonna somehow kill their season, as he's never played for a winning team in his 11-year career (closest he came was w/ a 42-40 GSW team, who traded him to Indy mid-season).

Jared Dudley raining death on the bulls right now

It's so sad I think it is finally the end, almost certain he retires after this year

KG being toast is like the third biggest of Brooklyn's problems right now after having two injured main guys and a clueless coach (fourth that pierce isn't really in gear yet but I think that's temporary)

fwiw garnett has looked cooked at at least three times prior to this

lag∞n, Sunday, 24 November 2013 22:16 (ten years ago) link

i'm full-bore behind dunleavy curse theory
