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

stripped lebro full speed on the break

celtics finally beat the bucks o yay

heat flose to detroit lol heat suck suns are winning it all this year guaranteed

hater.

seriously, tho, heat won't win another game this year.

suns losing to memphis man naaaaah its the blazers this year obv

Giannis has grown to 6'10 and says doctors expect him to keep growing for another 2 years

i had no idea he was that big!

built like Durant kinda?

looks like he has a bigger frame than durant prob just skinny cause hes so young

Durant and Giannis are pretty much the same yeah. Giannis somehow has even bigger hands and a bigger wingspan.

is Javale just tyrus thomas 2.0?

Nah. Javale is a guy who has had dominant performances in the playoffs, Tyrus is a guy who has had dominant performances in summer league.

fair enough

haha matt loves javale

wow this kobe scrimmage footage ain't great

Tyrus Thomas is way way up there on the list of biggest wastes of talent btw

i love javale too but it's like they say, if you love someone let them go

my favorite comparison for Javale is Darryl Dawkins

yeah it's worth noting that ty thomas could have been a pretty good player if he wasn't a dumbass

maybe if Javale had cute nicknames for dunks people would cut him more slack idk

it's profoundly stupid that i can't watch the heat/pistons on league pass, like hello yes i have NBAtv obviously since i spent 200 dollars on this service, sorry i'm not at my house every waking moment but i'd like to watch the game

This shit drives me berserk

I don't even have nbatv because it doesn't even come with league pass on my system and I'm not paying even more for round the clock rick kamla

Javale is trying real hard on twitters and vines tho

Dude has played all of 13 playoff games and his stats are decent (double doubles with lots of blocks) but were any of those games DOMINANT? Serious question

guys remember when javale would've been an all star if only the internet had stopped making fun of him for doing funny things on the court

real javale heads remember those lakers games

new board descrip

javale def had a few games in the first round of the lakers series a few years back where he was balling out of control, like routinely dunking on multiple bigs in the half court out of nowhere

he's had some great moments

can we all make a pact to be around for the knicks/nets game on thursday night? early evening start so ILH west coast is excused.

as a bonus the NFL game that night is jags/texans

javale seems like a confounding talent out of central casting, body too big for skills, etc.

he was so great that game, that lefty scoop hook <3

Lamar Odom back at Team USA basketball camp this summer said McGee needed to develop a better feel because “the game is called basketball, not run and jump.”

lollll

legitimately considering calling in sick thursday

I def. remember when you said he was a "terrible rebounder" and couldn't defend the statement at all.

this raptors performance is not really believeable

seriously

harrison has been great

going through this article on kidd and frank i'm realizing i would read a book-length insider account of the kidd regime

the funniest thing abt the drink spilling incident is he couldve just spilled the drink himself like oops and got away with it instead he had to concoct this elaborate scheme and came out looking like a fool
