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

whatsoever*

Hickson is a small power forward.

Who is gonna put the ball in the hoop?

the other team

lol

even if faried and hickson are as good as each other, why not play the guy who has a slight chance of getting better?

i guess not actually having a small forward makes none of this matter.

lol j0

Hickson is a small power forward.

he's listed as 6'9", which means 6'7". He's strong, but sadly you're last sentence is far too true.

you're? Try your. Aggressive autocorrect on this phone.

gd regular season crept up on me, so many things to predict be4 tipoff in a few hours.

you realize that anthony randolph shouldn't ever set foot on the floor of an nba game that is within 20 points

Randolph can guard 3s which I'm sure is what will happen. He's only starting because Gallo and Chandler are both out.

He's also not a terrible player. He's an ok 10th man at the very least.

Hickson got a lot better last year. He's 2 years older than Faried.

he's like 6'10, 250 or so. He played center all last year and grabbed tons of rebounds. He's not exactly little for a 4. But he can't guard a chair and just imagine him trying to shadow durant is like a cruel joke

guys Hickson isn't playing the 3

Chandler is the SF until Gallinari returns, right

Randolph can guard 3s which I'm sure is what will happen. He's only starting because Gallo and Chandler are both out.

He's also not a terrible player. He's an ok 10th man at the very least.

Thank you Chris Mullin for unleashing Randolph on the NBA.

ha yeah heat look like a gold iphone

I died

bulls not scored much sans rose

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 15s
Y! Sources: All-Star guard Russell Westbrook could return to Oklahoma City lineup within two weeks. http://yhoo.it/16IEiH6

not super cool with some commercial ironically deploying "perfect day" just yet :(

Derrick Rose MVP defense

wade not doing anything out there

But is Larry a problem?

Dig that warriors piece obv

otm about their offense issues and ILH otm about too many post ISOs with Klay/Barnes

7. Austin Carr’s Laugh
The Cavs’ boisterous broadcast team has grown on me. Carr is sometimes more booster than analyst, but he’s fun in that role, and I love when he just straight-up laughs at some opposing player’s mistake. It’s a scratchy, evil cackle, as if Carr himself masterminded the whole thing and saw it coming several steps in advance.

Lowe wildly OTM

dmc putting up big numbers on the pacers rn

Scott Cacciola ‏@ScottCacciola 19m

JR: Was not told why he was benched. Learned during game. "I haven't the slightest clue."

very high risk/reward SG with crazy hops

Exum a much better fit for Milwaukee tbh, but it would be sexy

like virtually every permutation of the draft lottery thing on espn.com has him going to denver, obv depends if the knicks keep winning i guess

turkoglu is a clipper

"For [the shoelcace incident] to be the trigger point for all this to happen is ridiculous," said Smith.

Smith wasn't told in advance by Mike Woodson that he wouldn't play in Tuesday's game.

"Communication from my end is over," said Smith.

all you can do is laugh i guess

Lakers have lost 11 of 12, about to start a 7 game trip.

JR can't even sit on the bench w/ his bro anymore, Knicks are some meanies ;_;
