i mean what did he think the endgame of that would be? he'd keep doing that every game, and people would keep finding it funny? that the league would never tell him to knock it off? he's just completely out of tune with reality

i wonder if that focus on home court advantage might not be a mistake, nba season is hella long and its easy to work too hard and burn out
― lag∞n, Friday, 10 January 2014 18:58 (ten years ago) link
it definitely helped Miami last year though
― Nhex, Friday, 10 January 2014 19:04 (ten years ago) link
yeah home court is great no doubt but you have to weigh what you sacrifice to get it, the pacers are going all out where miami is resting wade every other game and theyre only a game back so idk

Evan Dunlap @BQRMagic 1mWhich reminds me: if David West makes the All-Star team this year, the front will say EAST 30 and the back will say WEST 30
Evan Dunlap @BQRMagic 1mBrook Lopez's nickname is Brooklyn, meaning the front and back of his nickname jersey is BROOKLYN 11

haven't you guys ever heard of the comedy rule of three
And JR shoots threes, think about it

woodson's angry "NO COMMENT." when asked about benching JR at the break was pretty funny though

the j.r. stuff is funny insofar he's a goof but it's also kinda sad

no i think he was just being a goof but i'm not looking forward to the "JR smith is broke remember when he was fined over $2 million by multiple basketball leagues" portion of his story

agree about it being both sad and funny
thinking about jr's long-term future and all the viciously terrible he'll make on his way towards it is maybe too sad

toss jrue holiday on the pile of injured guards out who knows how long, stress fracture to the right tibia.

Do we have a running count of how many total injured players there are right now. Is that a stat that's kept track of over seasons
― 龜, Friday, 10 January 2014 22:07 (ten years ago) link
Bledsoe, Paul, deron, rondo, Kobe, rose, Westbrook, jrue
That's 8 all-star or borderline all-star guards currently down by my count.
