NBA Season 2010-2011

[Ridders]

Tough run for the Heat. 3 losses in their last 4 games. 5-4 on the season.

I'm surprised Haslem and Z don't get more burn tbh.

Definitely agree with Haslem. Is much better than Bosh at setting picks and running pick-n-rolls or pops. Just on that, Bosh is terrible at setting picks and isn't really a good pick-n-roll big. I'm sure it's something he'll get better at (he'll have to with Lebron and Wade on the team)

Either Chuck or Kenny (couldn't tell) on Riley taking notes in the Heat game;

"Soon Spo's going to be wanting to spend more time with his family as well" :lol:

 

[Ridders]

In the Lakers game; Kobe just became the youngest player in NBA history to reach 26,000 points.

Accomplishments just keep rolling in for the great man.

@paulpierce34 It's been a pleasure to bring my talents to south beach now on to Memphis

:lol:

 

[Ridders]

Disappointing loss to Denver, considering that LA were ahead for long stretches. I know that Pau's stats were great (17 points, 20 rebounds) but he was awful offensively. I'm not quite sure how but Al Harington, of all people, was basicially able to shut him down. Plus he got abused by Nene on defense.

Since LA couldn't run anything through Pau, Kobe just started launching shots in the 4th.

 

[andrew057]

The game showed how vital Pau is to the Lakers, he played poorly and the Lakers looked horrible. Afflalo did a nice job on Kobe. It was great seeing Brown and Lawson going back and forth.

The Knicks deadset sh*t me to tears.

Were up by 20points against the Timberwolves FFS, looks like they will lose bigtime!

3rd Q shooting went to ICE COLD. Why do I even bother...

 

[Fast Eddie]

Is Kevin Love serious? 31 points, 31 rebounds at this stage.

 

[applesauce]

First 30-30 since 1982.

It was bullsh*t once Amare fouled out he dominated.

 

[Fast Eddie]

Whats up with Amare? He should be averaging more than mid to late teens on that team. Knicks are missing Turaif inside.

 

[BunniesMan]

Amare is a sh*t rebounder as it is. And Love got 24 rebounds the other day. He's 2nd in the league in rpg and probably 1st after this. So it wasn't a bullsh*t statline. If Rambis plays love less than 35 minutes ever again, I'll personally waterboard him.

 

[Ridders]

Kevin Love wtf. I'm sorry I ever ripped your defense.

 

[applesauce]

Whats up with Amare? He should be averaging more than mid to late teens on that team. Knicks are missing Turaif inside.

He has been playing average but a lot of it is bad looks. Teams have found him out pretty quick this season.

He just gets the ball in/near the paint, 2 guys rush in, he tries to play through, but turns it over or misses.

He needs to choose when to go for it, and when to draw and pass.

His team mates don't help out, they are either red hot or ice cold and most games this year it has been changing through a game (like today). :x

 

[McLovin]

Anybody watching the Suns/Lakers game...Phoenix is just raping them from long range atm...heading for a franchise record in 3's...

 

[Nth-Qld-Raider]

I seem some of the Thunder and Spurs game, and Matt Bonner went 7/7 in 3's, i knew he could hit 3's but gee it was good shooting, Spurs seem to be the real deal 8-1.

Tim Duncan before the start of the game, was only 42 Pts behind Dave Robinson in Pts for San Antonio, and only 2 games from his games record as well.

 

[joel caine number 1 fan]

so who wins the mayo for Love trade now

 

[Ridders]

How about Darko today!!

13 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks.

 

[Nth-Qld-Raider]

Hornets finally lose their 1st game of the season to Dallas, Thunder end Utah's run.

Devin Harris has just been ejected for a bad foul on Blake Griffin, it was a high tackle around his head lol.

 

[Ridders]

Thought this was interesting;

It wasn't long ago that Thompson, selected with the No. 12 overall pick in the 2008 draft, and Spencer Hawes were being touted as the Kings' frontcourt tandem of the future.

Now?

Thompson is averaging just 15.4 minutes per game off the bench and has been shopped by the Kings, who according to one source with knowledge of the talks offered the 6-11, 250-pounder to Atlanta in a deal featuring young point guard Jeff Teague. The Hawks declined.

http://espn.go.com/nba/dailydime/_/page/dime-101112-14/testing-early-trade-winds

Can kind of understand it from both sides. Kings obviously have a front-court log-jam atm, plus the Hawks are apparently high on Teague.

Thompson's pretty decent though, would be nice to see him go somewhere where he can get minutes.

 

[Special K]

Everyone thought Thompson at 12 was a reach. Guys like Speights, Rush, Lopez and Randolph were all considered to be above him at the time.

That said he would probably be more helpful to the Sixers compared to Hawes who is just plain terrible. How can you be 7-1 and average 2.9 rebounds I mean come on!
