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

brooks had 26 points in 22 minutes.

seems like a lot

all 12 spurs played at least 11 minutes and had at least 6 points tonight.

im sorry, 13 spurs

god, looking at the eastern conference right now...all the tank mode teams are hovering in the middle of low-playoff/barely missing it zone (orl, bos, philly, charlotte), the teams aiming for mediocrity or better fell short (nyk, bkn, mil)

srsly tho after all these years and the eastern conference is still a joke.

these sleeved jerseys just make me cry

man, the bucks got blown out at home by the bobcats, this team sucks

eastern conference will prolly have 2 teams with losing records in the playoffs and the west will have two with winning records who won't #eliminateconferences

the bucks are going to be really bad. i mean they play in the east so they'll probably make the playoffs but still

lol xp

would just like to point out that i was otm

i looked at the all-star ballots the other day and the disparity in talent from one conference to the other seemed historically large xxxp

nba needs relegation, bottom 10 teams to d-league after this season, remaining 20 teams play 4 games against each, make games 40 minutes long, you're welcome

i have saved basketball and many knees

btw only 3 rounds in playoffs, top 8 of the league make it #myspace

all the sports shd have relegation, would be so cool

btw if relegation happened now, 8 of the 10 would be in the east, including 8-seed washington wizards #FUCKTHAEASTCOAST

its p much the most amazing thing that USA has cutthroat meritocratic capitalism for its politics, but hardcore redistributing protectionist sports leagues and commie europe has no salary cap and separate leagues for inferior teams

in USA, ur the worst team, congrats, you can now get the best player not playing in the league which is the only functional league of this sport there is
in Soviet Union, ur the worst team, u get sent to the gulag league in siberia

what a country!

srsly tho after all these years and the eastern conference is still a joke.

thankfully the nets and knicks are helping out by collecting all the bad contracts and donating picks

knicks being terrible this year feels like coming home, like putting on a knicks are terrible sweater your gramma knitted u and drinking cider

ha yeah, last years team being as good as they were made no sense, now were back to normal

can we just cancel the eastern conference and declare miami and indiana part of the western conf by virtue of the western hemisphere or something?

ok but you have to break the news to the rest of the conference and they are really gonna take it hard

there are three teams in the east with winning records at the moment

sorry, four

who's gonna tell michael jordan he can't own a team anymore, he's gonna be mad

hey mike how is goin ha yeah love those jeans btw jacket too the whole ensemble really its just great listen we need to talk

gsw's defense is way underrated

or i guess it's that nobody ever talks about them as a good defensive team but they're shockingly cohesive as a unit

yeah theyre looking real good this year, bogut and iggy (rip) are both leet klay is solid steph is good and lol lee

ha yeah, last years team being as good as they were made no sense, now were back to normal

healthy bogut means everything

did joe just call steph a good defender

NUGZ

STREAKING

steph is alright defender idk

maybe denver should be in the eastern conference where they'd be like the 5th seed

psh nugz are 7-4 and have played a tough schedule, h8rs

i have no idea if i wkiw robin lopez or not

nugs are 6-6 aren't they?

lol yes schedule i looked at did not go back far enough

does wes matthews miss shots

he did last year

NBA STATS 13/14

when klay and steph are on it's just too much

bless you stephen curry

i read a thing about wes being seriously upset about his nbarank placement so maybe he's just to'd at espn and taking it out on the hoop
