[Zep]

This is gonna be a good 2nd half. Miss these two going at each other.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

This are the nets we were expecting.
Fuck da knicks

bbrrrrrrooooookkkkkklllllyyynnnnnn

It's pretty obvious that the Nets will eventually snag the third seed in the East.

Pretty much

can we just start referring to eastern conference seeding as automatically behind the west's top 8? pacers @ 9th, heat @ 10th, etc

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

Too bad your team is not in a major market because it's equally as laugh inducing as our team.

sorry been studying, missed this

Yeah our management is generally pretty shit. Our owner has a good heart and won't try to move the team but he doesn't really do what it takes to win in terms of hiring the right people.

Twins management is maybe even more inept. And Vikings sometimes

sucks to be an MN sports fan tbh

 

[K.Jack]

You were down on the MCW pick, IWMTB.

Look at him now.

Spoiler

Sidelined because of a skin infection? wat

That's what PR calls STDs these days. Little dude caught dem crabs.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

reggie and harlan are so fucking bored by this game

can't blame em

 

[AcridMeat]

Wow I just heard some Stardust in the Brooklyn stadium. Props to them.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

this is how the nyets beat the heat on opening night.
slow and steady.
they could be real scary come playoff time.

then again, this is a Kidd led team.
he'll easily get outcoached.

The East is still winning it all this year. And as stacked as the West is, there are really only 3-4 teams tops that can give the Heat or Pacers a decent series.

I could live to regret these words but...

Having Deron on the floor will alleviate a lot of those problems.

The Spurs, Thunder, Rockets, Clippers, Blazers and Warriors would all have a great shot against the Pacers and I'd take the top 3 over them in a series.

man, pierce blows

People said the same shit last year and the spurs lost that series as much as the heat won it. Was a really close series that could've gone either way.

The truth is, any team that comes out of the west is going to have been well scrutinised.

 

[Clevinger]

lopez hurt again?

edit: dude, you're limping around. get off the fuckin court...

 

[Herpes Reasons]

its a damn shame lopez, bynum and oden have a knack for injury.

 

[Emwitus]

:'( lopez

I think Thunder or spurs can beat pacers in 6. Packers look really good as heat have no match up for hibbert.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Clippers fucking suck

 

[Emwitus]

Blatche?

I don't think OKC can.

But i don't think OKC are going back to the WCF. I expect them to be bounced in the semi's again.

 

[Herpes Reasons]

who the fuck is blatche?!!

 

[Psychological Intellect]

blatche going off lmao

 

[friskykillface]

Clolippers

blatch styling on deandre

Pacers are the only team that can say they have a guy that can legitimately be Durant's worst defender to play against, and maybe the Heat with Lebron depending how many fucks are left.

TA did a good job on him last year. LBJ guards him very well too.

Pacers are lucky that they can switch with Stephenson / PG very easily though and keep it up for 48 mins.

Check the edit.

Durant still dropped 30PPG on 55FG% versus the Heat in '12 Finals. Not that it mattered, but they really didn't bother stopping him.

Whos gonna bounce thunder from playoffs? Portland?

I get a feeling Durant and ynb will give pg and Stephenson the pipe if given the opportunity. Perk will be a factor.

Possibly, but PG is on another level offensively this year. Durant has his work cutout for him, too.

Spurs, rockets, warriors with iguodala, clippers etc

Heat and Pacers are legit legit teams

 

[reilo]

Heat and Pacers are legit legit teams

I feel both of them are one injury away from being also-rans. If Bosh or Hibbert go down for either for a prolonged period...

Spurs could roll OKC, particularly with a healthy kawahi

Healthy Memphis have done it before.

W's with a healthy iggy that also have barnes and klay to throw at Durant

And Portland have at least a 50/50 chance too if they can keep their roll going.

Thats what i meant though when i said, any team coming out of the west is going to have had a thorough examination.

I think the Heat are without Bosh...

As for Hibbert he is the Pacers 2nd best player...

Take any teams no 1 or 2 away and they going suffer

Ask the Thunder

 

[reilo]

20pt blowout game is gonna keep playing for another 30mins, and we're gonna miss the beginning to the better match-up. Fix yo shit, TNT.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Gonna get so much use.

 

[reilo]

CJ McCollum cleared for 3-on-3.

 

[perfectchaos007]

It's on Portland! Dwight vs. Greg Oden lets goooooooooooooooo!!!

 

[reilo]

What the fuck this is like a 6 minute timeout. Let's go. Stop the bullshit TNT.

OMG, 5:55 left? What the hell.
