Literally starting a fight over a good foul

That was a flagrant foul, not really just a "good" hard foul. But of course Swaggy P had to protect his rep.

All Star game jerseys

Edit:Looks like the link got taken down all you need to know is they're terribly designed sleeved jerseys.

Why are they pushing for the sleeves? It just doesn't fit

Rondo's return went about as well as I could expect. Some nice baskets. Some nice moves at the rim. This Celtics team sucks in the fourth quarter though. A Rajon Rondo iso jumper should not be the best shot you get out of your offense.

Syzzle · « **Reply #462 on:** January 17, 2014, 08:49:39 PM »

If it was playoffs Rondo he would have made that shot.

I'm sure the Celtics don't mind the Lakers helping them get Jabari.

True, but it made for enjoyable basketball. Lots of running. The bad defenses allowed for a lot of cool passing and ball movement.

That might be the best uncontested dunk I've ever seen.

I'm starting to believe in Durant's MVP case. All we're hearing from the Heat is how they lack motivation. Meanwhile, Durant's averaging 37-6-6 52%FG without Westbrook.

Syzzle · « **Reply #472 on:** January 23, 2014, 10:28:35 AM »

The Heat clearly lack motivation, but that doesn't change the fact that Durant is still the MVP. So unless LeBron averages 30/8/8 on 70 TS% he's not winning MVP he probably wasn't going to this year anyway.

TheOutlawXanadu · « **Reply #473 on:** January 23, 2014, 10:34:26 AM »

There's no argument for anyone else besides Durant in the MVP race right now. He's averaging 31/8/5 with a 31 PER. He's approaching a territory only a handful of guys have ever approached. I know there's only ever been seven guys with a 30 PER. There's gotta be even less guys with a 31 PER.

Only 3 with above 31.

That was a thing of beauty. Love you Melo.

So stupid to take him out he could have easily scored 70+.

Congrats, Melo... note to you, the Nets have won 9 out of 10 since the start of 2014.

people are complaining that he didn't play 48 mins vs the bobcats in a blowout win. He was gassed by the time that last shot went in, and it took him a few attempts to get that last one.

antigoon · « **Reply #481 on:** January 25, 2014, 01:00:22 PM »

I wish he had stayed in too but he was exhausted and it probably would have been in bad taste.

Looking like the Spurs age has finally caught up with them.

ReaPsTA · « **Reply #483 on:** January 27, 2014, 03:59:12 AM »

Leonard, Splitter, and Green are all injured right now. I wouldn't take any Spurs losses too seriously right now. The Spurs could be down 0-3 to OKC in the playoffs and I'd still pick them to win the series. They've defied the odds enough times to deserve the benefit of the doubt.

Syzzle · « **Reply #484 on:** January 27, 2014, 08:12:52 AM »

Injuries don't explain how they've only won 1 game against the best teams in the NBA. Since those 3 weren't injured until pretty recently. Now if those 3 come back, and they can actually win some games against good teams we could probably assume the first half of the season was just an aberration.

Nekov · « **Reply #485 on:** January 27, 2014, 09:03:14 AM »

Pop has been keeping the same rotation against all teams to preserve the older guys for the full season. I'm fairly sure that when the playoffs come Manu, Duncan and Parker will get more minutes than they are right now which should make a big difference.

You always say that whatever the Heat do during the regular season doesn't really matter because their best game is when they are in playoffs mode, can you conceive the same thing will happening with the Spurs?

That makes too much sense.

Nekov · « **Reply #487 on:** January 27, 2014, 03:50:58 PM »

You make it sound like it's a bad thing

Syzzle · « **Reply #488 on:** January 27, 2014, 03:53:13 PM »

The Spurs are 1-10 against title contenders(Their only win against the Clippers with no CP3 or Reddick), and 32-1 against the rest of the league. Their struggles don't indicate that they're coasting like Miami as if Pop would allow that anyway. They have 8 games against contenders for the rest of the season lets see if they can at least win half of them

ReaPsTA · « **Reply #489 on:** January 27, 2014, 11:12:56 PM »

...Kevin Durant...

I think all the talk about how Westbrook was the real leader of the Thunder got to him.

MVP frontrunner right now. Putting the team on his back.
