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

is PG gonna guard harden?

btw this game better be good, i finally had an evening free to play some bball and the gym was closed for some track meet >:(

fuck track.

otm

birdman just shot a straightaway 3 with 20 seconds on the shot clock and was immediately benched, lol

yolo

harden looks uncharacteristically locked in on defense tonight, we'll see how long it lasts

I think birdman is on his third or fourth life at least

someone whisper to harden that there's two-for-one beers at a local strip club. his mind will wander.

Btw cad I was listening to that celtics pistons game and the radio guy was losing his mind as bass was backing down with no real time left on the clock- and he's not really a bad homer. He spent half of the subsequent timeout praising Stevens for recognizing that bass was in some twilight zone and calling the timeout

This is what I meant when I said it seemed like bass is just logging time waiting for a trade- no real reason for him to be on that team

Lol this game just turned into a block party

Also hey it's Danny granger!

I've never seen Scola take a shot beyond 12 feet and he just nailed a three

holy

rudy gay has kind of looked pretty good since the trade

insane steal from wade (immediately after he threw the ball away)

ha that screen cap I couldn't figure out what the big deal was, just thought Lebro was standing by the ref calling for the ball... then it clicked

lol it does look like hes just standing in the corner

PG is giving harden fits

harden just gave the softest show on a screen of all time

harden is gassed

Harden's ankle is probably bothering him a little, was questionable today IIRC

lol Nets lose at the buzzer

ESPN Stats & Info ‏@ESPNStatsInfo 47s
The Kings shot 58.1% from the field and lost by 19 to the Heat... The last time a team shot that well and lost by that much was 1986.

kemba is averaging 28-4-4-2 on 64% shooting over his last four games.

i hate the pacers with the heat of a thousand suns. but i hope they beat the rockets by 35.

Jalen Rose: calls Casspi "Omar," thinks Spencer Hawes is a stretch 4

Bill Simmons thinks Ricky Rubio has "taken a step back" this season

who amongst us would take harden over paul george?

a lot of his numbers are down

xp to matt

george in a heartbeat

its cool when players do both things offense and defense

both kinds of music country and western

rap and country

dwight dominated hibbert tonight but the rockets offense had no flow to it whatsoever, i feel like these two things are related

wow harden had a real bad game

a lot of his numbers are down

not really

yeah george ate him alive

So I know that this isn't exactly like an exciting party conversation starter, but I just saw that Goran Dragic is averaging 19 ppg and 6 assists

groan's always been great

ya were all very excited about that tbh

a lot of his numbers are down

his rate stats are down a little across the board, which taken together signal a slight regression. otoh subjectively his defense is still amazing, as reflected too by his win shares, your favorite stat

his layup shooting is very good NOT

burn

I've had a soft spot for dragon for a while too, but he has exceeded my expectations

no, some stuff is worse, some stuff is better. Because he's basically having the same season.

his box score numbers are very similar but down ever so slightly. i didn't see what simmons said exactly but to say that he's regressed a bit (offensively) isn't the dumbest thing to say
