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

Lol sorry

you're at the game? nice

blake got his free throw game up too

blech deandre

chris paul 34-14 and 6 steals right now

and I didn't even notice Blake had over 30 because Paul was scoring so much

so hectic

yeah portland passed up like 3 open threes there

western conf 4 lyfe

wow lma

omg barnes gave the 2 for 1 back what a dummy

matt barnes smh

man barnes is an idiot

weirdest game ever, wild experience

cp3 went right for the 2 for 1 and got blake a look at the rim too

smh

yup he made the right play

wow nice move

DOUBLE OT CMON

doc calls way took many timeouts btw

all coaches do

yeah ban timeouts

add in all these lame ass reviews too and these games lag

oh my good lord that was close

he actually released that after he put his foot back down but w/e

wow jamal almost made that

big FT miss

these blazers man, they are charmed

yeah good stuff

man, feel for the clippers with back-to-back heartbreak losses like that though

I still can't believe cp's shot at the end of regulation was short, like am I living in a dream

2 games in a row with (pretty) easy shots missed to win

he was ridic tho

never feel bad for the clips

otm

*any team in LA

#tru

also did I dream that Blake hit like 7 solid 18 footers and didn't hesitate to take a corner three, because that's just weird as hell

His midrange game is better than his post up game

i love watching jeremy lin play and would love to go totally in the tank for him but man that is that dude a massive jesus freak wtf guy

Yeah when AZNs become jesus freaks they go all in. I know a few in real life who are comparable

i'm always super disappointed when that happens tbh

damn anz always perfect our wite tech

They study the Bible like they study for the SAT </azn humor>

"It was the refs tonight. Eight against five. The game in the second half, a man was shooting free throws every time. We were out there playing hard, and they were dictating the game. It can't be like that. We are out there playing, too.

-- Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph, on the officials during Memphis' loss to Houston, where James Harden hit 22 of 25 free throws.

It's not in free agency in 2015 but later this season or next summer when he comes back from a torn ACL. The Knicks are hoping Rondo will be interested in making a maneuver similar to what Anthony did back in 2011 and eventually try to force a trade to the Knicks, sources said.

[...]

If that fails—and who knows how Rondo will mesh with this Celtics team, it could work well and he could want to stay—the Knicks fully believe they will get one or two of the following in free agency in 2015 when they expect to have large salary-cap space: Kevin Love, LaMarcus Aldridge, Roy Hibbert, Marc Gasol, Tony Parker or Rondo when his contract is up. Under certain circumstances, James himself could be a free agent again that summer.

nbd just a couple of those guys.

ha i love the knicks

lol it wasn't "and/or," why limit yrselves tojust one or two as long as yr dreaming.

anything's possible if Melo leaves. but that ain't gonna happen
