in these, the waning days of stern: 2013-2014 NBA regular season thread (part 1)

Lin at least looks like he's trying and/or cares

hes better at pretending, he went too harvard

Isn't Beverley supposed to be good at D?

Yeah but his name is Beverly

when houston trades asik they really need to get a perimeter stopper or two

trade lin go small play harden at point etc

they already have a good defensive PG, a superstar SG and a good SF who is a solid defender, that's a lot of complicated roster rearranging to try to slide another good defender in.

the issue defensively is Harden, not the roster around him

well lin is terrible and harden is terrible, they shd prob not be on the same team is maybe what it comes down to, but defense aside there are def arguments to be made for harden at the 1 and parsons at the 4 some of the time

I mean trading lin and asik is just kinda a no brainer imho

if they trade Lin parsons is obv going with him

you can't destroy true bruv

Lin wasn't a terrible defender last year, but I confess it sure does look like he is this year

maybe they could break up and become enemies tho xp

Doesn't get any more predictable than shaq choosing to critique Dwight's first half with his alotted time.

heh

It doesn't look like the leprechaun. It looks like the lead singer of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

same guy i thought

That's the impression that I get as well.

glad the guys are focusing on Houston's real problem: offense

lol parsons has 'sneaky athleticism' aka a jumping wite

houston looking p good w parsons at the 4 btw

this comeback was so completely inevitable

lol harden a practitioner of the swipe from behind after getting blown by move of course, shd just automatically be called a foul because it always is

i had a friend who did that all the time and we were always like stop doing that its always a foul just play defense and we werent even in the nba

dwights ft form is just spectacular, i want to call it a two handed topsipn shot

brandon roy-esque worthless late-game iso and 17 footer from harden there, maddening.

lol the people upstairs are lakers fans apparently and they were just v disappointed in that play

oh now they are happy

Steve. Blake.

lol steve blake you go you lil guy

someone just yelled STEVE BLAKE

first time for everything

p sure i heard another voice say who

Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine 38s
The Blake Mamba? Is that a thing?

steve blake is the definition of so not baller

la 16-35 from three

netw3rk ‏@netw3rk 22s
"Man, great shot. It's too bad we didn't have you last year." "I was here last year, Kobe."

Lol this game. Harden gave up like 12 uncontested drives to the hoop tonight.

Haha xp

Rockets and Clippers huh

was blake's game-winner harden's fault? seems as likely as not.

Looked like Lin and Bev forgot to switch

@mcten 18m
In the style of his old coach, Don Nelson, Nash cracked open a Miller Lite in the locker room after a well-earned road victory

That's the impression that I get as well.
