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

RT @jadande: Clutch Kevin: Durant scored 21 in 4Q, including go-ahead bucket. Not-so-clutch Kevin: Love missed 4 straight FTs down stretch

down two to the thunder with four seconds left he got fouled shooting a three, missed the first two, then didn't hit rim trying to intentionally miss the third xp

durant had 48-7-7-1-2

kd is p good

mcw is so much fun to watch

nope

Nope

for some reason memphis is trading jerryd bayless for courtney lee

someone explain that trade?

oh, bayless is an expiring

Paul out six weeks now with a grade 3 joint separation ugh

fucking sucks, he was having such a sick season

clips got severely owned his first game out too

9 wins in a row for golden state, most since sometime in the 1970s

why the hell is memphis taking on courtney lee

what's going on with hollinger this season i'm concerned

i forgot that he's in their front office, it's weird how dangerously close memphis is to all-out suckage.

i mean they lost their best player

rudy gay

They've been scoring a lot of point lately kinda.

Are they going into tank mode? Maybe getting ready to move zbo then?

you don't trade for a player with two years left on his contract if you're taking.

they think they can get some 3-point shooting from lee and evidently had no better ideas for using the trade exeption.

bayless is so much better than lee tho, none of it makes sense

they're taking the worse player AND the worse contract

probably figured bayless was peacing after the season

lakers give up 137 points to the nuggets, Kendall Marshall has 9-6-17. They are must-see TV!

Asked if he'd spoken to Lakers management in support of the four-time All-Star, as he has in the past, Bryant laughed and said: "How much more am I supposed to support a guy? Besides making a Pau flag and riding in there on a horse with Spanish-colored paint on my face, looking like a Spanish William Wallace or something? I don't know what else to say."

juice it up nate!!

nattttte

one of the few players genuinely deserving of the overused phrase "can jump out of the building"

This is kind of funny. I looked up the Knicks leading scorer for that year (46-47)

After ending his basketball career at the age of 28, Hertzberg went on to become a managing director of Bear Stearns, an investment banking and brokerage firm.

steph is my fav player

otm

shit. the first time I watched it I thought it got some kind of bizarre lucky bounce off the rim or the backboard, but he just shot it at an incredible angle

also i watched the suns/bucks the other night and watching gerald green play was a total treat, cutting off passing lanes and windmilling all over the place

5 steals

As soon as he steals the ball the Bucks players just give up and don't chase him at all

wau @ gerald green

indy was maybe a lil too formal for green to do his thing

yeah you have to give him some slack and let him make some mistakes but its paying off for the suns. maybe like lance stepehenson huh? guess you can't have TWO projects like that.

man that last steal where he just runs right between the two guys. granted they weren't really trying but he looked very fast.

always nice to see gerald play well.

juice it up nate!

Nate the Great™ -- GOAT.
