Pekovic has added some things to his offensive game, kinda amazing to see. Seems confident taking 15 footers, even busted out a turnaround baseline J tonight.

entering this season he had never made a shot outside 15 feet in his career! He had a total of 5 attempts, presumably all on broken possessions.

Where Novak's release compares to a restaurant waiter carrying a tray of food, with his palm held up and off to the side of his head, Bargnani—who has "good, but not perfect alignment," said Townsend—brings the ball near his eyebrow area, where he can't consistently straighten out his arm to get extra arc on his shots.
Haha what

― lag∞n, Thursday, 19 December 2013 16:10 (ten years ago) link
dont really understand how it makes sense for the celtics as asiks contract is up after next year and theyre rebuilding maybe they think they can sign him long term right away idk

down by 1 and with less than 24 seconds left in the game last night, brandon bass ended up with the ball and proceeded to mindlessly back down his man as if there was 10 minutes left in the second quarter, never once considering that he might want to pass to a teammate. the celtics had to call a timeout with 4 seconds left so they could set up a play for someone who actually comprehends game situations.
so yeah, if just from an aesthetic standpoint, pls trade bass.

hahah. tbh i would rather seem try to make those stupid shots than none at all, if he'll make some of them
that bargani shot/reaction cracks me up. i love how the announcer loses it, "what is he DOING?"

tbh if he made 1 more of those 3s he'd have shot a respectable percentage, i think ppl are focusing on that too much
nb i didn't watch the game

yeah its funny the knicks even won the game too, i think it was just a really really horrible game is the impression im getting

why does the nba have so many stupid rules everyone loves trades
Gameshow where they put three NBA GMs in a room and a chute drops 50 player contracts into the room and the GMs have 30 seconds to grab as many as they can

wonder if that celtics-rockets deal was floated in the press as a way to get someone else to think, "we can beat that!"
