NBA Regular Season 2012-2013

[HowHigh]

Grizzlies are a solid team, if they stay healthy they'll be in the hunt come playoff time

 

[betcats]

What do you guys think of the Grizzlies so far? Impressive start to the season. Shaping up to be a contender in the West.

Agree, Memphis is a good team. They have two genuine post threats in Gasol and Z-bo and a very good wing player with Rudy. Good wing defenders with Allen and Rudy, Conely is good at the point. I really like the make up of their team.

The West is getting very good again.

Perkins is shit, we need to trade for Varejao

Varejao had 35 points the other night!

Gay needs to be better on both ends for them to win it all.

 

[betcats]

Yeah well I can't see them winning it all. Maybe one or two playoff series but not much more then that.

 

[andrew057]

They definitely have the potential if they can stay healthy.

 

[betcats]

Miami has been racking up some Ls. Only seen them in the Knicks opener so far so can't say much about them but whats the go with Dwade? its like he is declining fast.

 

[unbreaK]

Wade has been under injury clouds the last 24 months, he still is a long way off 100% (He's got 3 niggling injuries at the moment, his reoccurring foot injury, his jammed thumb and his recently surgically repaired knee are all giving him problems)

 

[HowHigh]

f**kin Knicks

f**kin Knicks

Haha. It's great to see Sheed back in the league.

J.R Smith has had a ridiculous start to the season. 18 ppg on 48 FG % and 73 % 3PT%!!!

Kinda like Jamal Crawford for the Clippers. Insane offense of the bench.

Brooklyn 5-2 still got Wallace to come back.. for some reason I've been under the impression they weren't doing well.. probably because both games I watched of them were the two they lost.. but anyway.. they going along good.

Love watching the Knicks.. the make up of that team is pretty awesome.

Been a great start to the year.. bobcats have won 4 from 7.. last year they took 30 games to win 4.. if I can recall the article I read earlier correctly.

 

[unbreaK]

Kemba has certainly stepped up from last year, and Sessions off the bench is doing decent work.

In relation to Nets: I think the nets are really missing crash, once they get him back they'll be a great all-around team.

In relation to the Knicks: I think when Amar'e gets back they will go down hill as a team, the way their team is at the moment is nearly pefect, Carmelo is getting a lot of shots and you've got guys coming off the bench with a licence to shoot.. Unless they bring Amar'e off the bench I can't see it being good for them.

 

[Big Mick]

J.R.Smith has started hot but no one can maintain 73% shooting from 3 which means he'll be absolutely terrible by mid-year.

But by then maybe Steve Novak heats up.

It is interesting how the Knicks play, I find it entertaining.

I love watching the Bobcats this year...I agree with unbreak...Kemba has stepped up as a starter this year.

 

[simostorm]

Grizzlies beat the Knicks.. exclamation point.

Early dunk of the year candidate:

Check out Rondo on the bench who sprained his ankle ealrier in the game.

 

[simostorm]

Nice.. what was the free throw for? Technical?

 

[Noa]

Harrison Barnes playing like a man lately. Had 2 lebron like drives v the t-wolves....left & right as well.

 

[Ridders]

Nice win for LA over the Rockets. .500 baby!! Good contribution from all 5 starters. I love Jordan Hill, probably the only bench player worth a damn on the Lakers.

Kevin Martin continues is great shooting for OKC. OKC will still struggle to replace Harden's playmaking (which Durant is having to do more of) but Martin is more than filling the scoring void.

 

[Ridders]

Anyone else been following the Royce White saga with the Rockets? Kinda sad how it's played out.

 

[andrew057]

Yeah I have. Its definitely a sad situation. He did himself no favours playing it all out in public.

 

[BunniesMan]

Kevin Love. First game back after a broken hand. 34-14. The guy is a freak. The best white american by far since Larry. If he was playing for a good team he'd be a top 3 MVP contender.

I've never seen someone be absolutely top tier elite at both rebounding and 3 point shooting at the same time. An epic combination of skills. And gee I'd like a full uninterrupted 82 games of Rubio and Love together.
