eastern conference features epic first round battle between no. 1 pacers and no. 8 nets. lock the brackets now.

Pekovic really is a solid, decent defender. Big gap between him and Love there.

why? I mean he's not very good any more at all but he was a blast in the mid 00s with those suns teams.
― Spottie, Thursday, 9 January 2014 03:37 (ten years ago) link
the thing I always remember with Barbosa is that when he came out in the draft he wasn't really on anyone's radar but there was this talk of a "Barbosa tape" of his Brazilian games that was blowing everyone away
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 9 January 2014 03:39 (ten years ago) link
wow dont think the nba was ready for that type of thing back then but now people are more open minded so itd prob be ok

I sometimes suspect the nyer thing was a joke that lurie and his "enemy" were both in on, and that the writer may or may not have been in on

i'd say block of the year but lillard is such a crap finisher that it downgrades it slightly xp

Haralabos Voulgaris @haralabob 24sMIN's close game “randomness” is pretty much the other side of 2012 Dallas’s record in close games. Neither were / are random.
haha wow bob with the quant heterodoxy

Haralabos Voulgaris @haralabob 7m@PPPBasketball when a team that scores a lot in transition, and is poor (relatively speaking) in the halfcourt - close losses aren’t random

that question about players in their prime is actually pretty interesting
i might still roll the dice on the heat with 30 ppg wade, ray allen from like 8 years ago, rockets battier, max contract era rashard and, uh, greg oden as a college senior
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 9 January 2014 15:48 (ten years ago) link
and i guess lebron and bosh in their currents states
the nets would probably win. but so would the spurs.
