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

the important thing to remember about lamarcus aldridge for tyrus thomas is that the Bulls also got Khryapa.

takes the sting off

aldridge at the line with 30 and 25 btw OOOOO_OOOOO

i was agitating repeatedly for portlant team to trade him for value this summer so that's how much you should listen to me

2nd half of this game ruled

yeah sick game

it's gonna be kinda cool when lebron starts at center for the east all-star squad

Wow Kennie the jet was faster than I thought he would be! I thought c Webb would walk this

i love c-webb without reservation

oh wow he really did pull his hammies

ICYMI: Rockets will trade Asik next Wednesday or Thursday. And do not discount Cleveland/Varejao. Would be perfect fit next to Howard.

milwaukee and philly are the other teams he's hearing

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ball-dont-lie/according-report-knicks-owner-james-dolan-nixed-deal-160314512--nba.html

According to several reports, the Knicks were prepared to trade Raymond Felton and Metta World Peace plus Iman Shumpert or Tim Hardaway Jr. or a 2018 first-round pick. The Raptors preferred the first-round pick, but Dolan — who negotiated the Carmelo Anthony trade with Raptors GM Masai Ujiri when Ujiri was with the Denver Nuggets — got cold feet about trading a future asset. That could open the door for the Brooklyn Nets to acquire Lowry instead.
“Dolan didn’t want to get fleeced again by Masai,” was how one Knicks source put it. “They had a deal ready.”

wrong process, right result

yup

i would almost think about taking hardaway over a pick. i didn't like him coming out of the draft but he has looked good.

prob redundant with derozan tho :-/

“Dolan didn’t want to get fleeced again by Masai,” was how one Knicks source put it. “They had a deal ready.”

lol

so is he just realizing now that maybe the Bargnani trade was not so good?

next thing you know hell realize maybe he shd let his basketball people take care of that sort of stuff

so kobe is starting at PG tonight and will guard westbrook

oh boy

that promises some entertainment

Metta World Peace: "Listen, whatever team I’m on is never rebuilding. When you get Metta World you’re officially championship mentality."

Omg stern water bottle action how did I miss that

Carmelo went shopping at the movie costume secondhand store and scored a deal on set-worn gear from red tails

Uh oh nets had to start kg at center next to Reggie Evans due to bropez ankle

Of course they have an early lead on Detroit tho bc that team sucks

marv albert is my beyonce, i'm still here

You best believe I left on a good chunk of that horrifying raiders/jets game last weekend just because the GOAT was calling it

Guys bill Simmons is trying to work a touchscreen trade machine on live tv right now

He just traded Kendrick Perkins and lamb to the magic for Arron afflalo lawl

Rondo is wearing some kind of black shirt with a white outline around the collar, I think goth chic is the new thing for injured players

Haha Courtney lee is torching the Knicks hey Dolan acquire that dude for a first rounder in 2018 cmon

otm

does the nba have an upper limit on how far away a draft pick can be traded? like could a team trade their 2345 first rounder?

Apparently picks more than 7 years out cannot be traded sadly

I have to say that even more than Gerald Wallace the guy who looks like he's just biding his time waiting for a trade to a contender is Brandon Bass

I finally figured it out Jordan Crawford runs exactly like Leandro Barbosa

wallace seems unlikely to be moved cause of his lol hueg contract but at the least bass and lee id guess will be traded

crawford maybe too and possibly green but it seems like maybe danny likes him and hes part of the long term plan

funny on espn crawford is listed as a sg and bradley as a pg but they play the opposite positions

that wallace contract extension was such a disaster

Hey mike Woodson get a fuckin tie please

You're gonna need it when you're interviewing for d-league jobs next fall anyway

epic, epic flop from varejao

varejao should be suspended for that

epic epic flop gif, plz

it's not that cool looking, it was a soccer dive basically. he put in an uncontested layup in garbage time, nicholson on the magic comes in from behind and breathes on him, and andy's down grabbing his knee

free league pass alert FYI through the 15th

wow, isaiah thomas

lol, kobe has 10 assists in 20 minutes
