I would walk your man down with the in and out, size up dribble to get him perpendicular, and then break his tailbone with a crossover.
He had 35 points. So therefor it's not an excuse

I don't want to pile on, but Dwight from last night is exactly what we had to deal with all of last year.
What is he 28? He has one post move in 10 years of NBA experience. gets stripped every time down low. Has no heart. Laughs and jokes around after getting embarrassed on the low block.
50% and below from the FT line isn't going to cut it.
Im so sorry Houston, I could see the way he was complaining on the floor last night, and it reminded me of the nightmares of last years. You guys are going to have the longest year of your life.

It's bruised only on defense.how convenient.
:lol
Where were y'all when he had 17 and 26 the first game? 13 and 16 against Mavs? 29 and 13 against blazers where he was 9/12 from FT line? I mean I get last night was like lakers age pumpin and pumpin and it finally got released, but don't show up only when it's convenient for you to do so. The whole team is inconsistent, but still 4-2. They aren't very good right now but that's ok for time being. It's novembah *Pheeniks
I'm not worried about Howard. He's childish, basically no offensive game, inconsistent from FT line, no accountability. You know what you're getting with him, this isn't some new revelation.
Harden however.. Shit needs to end. His defensive effort is amazing. Blake was clowning dude. Reddick popped him in his lip. YouTube videos poppin up all over clownin him and his effort on defense. He has to be the worst perimeter defender. When Lin is a better defender than you you got probs.

Same. Sounds like hes getting shit on by everyone in the team. That one part in the 4th quarter when Harden completely ignored him trying to set a play was just infuriating to watch, then he gets chewed out for shooting the ball with like 2 seconds left on the shot clock.
I hear he's been doing well this season too but doesn't get many touches at all. I'd love to see him at Golden State or San Antonio, I feel like he'd fit in there well.

All aboard! The Love train!
That was David Kahn hitching himself to Ricky since it was all he had. And he is really good, but right now he's shooting 28% from the field. I figure Ricky gets back up to his 40%-ish mark, he's just slumping.

This is fked up. Race is an issue with Lin's treatment. I figured he'd have become well-known and respected enough by now where he don't get treated that way but that's not the case.
This is terrible. This team deserves to flop, and they will. First round exit

Apparently it's bigger, has a tighter dead zone and real triggers now.
The symmetrical analogs are still a thing unfortunately, but I don't think it's that big of a deal.
From what I hear, other than the added rumble triggers the Xbox One controller is a downgrade.

He'd be great in GS or SA. That's the perfect type of atmosphere and team environment Lin would flourish in. This Rockets team is an unlikable, disrespectful, thuggish bunch. The type of dudes that pay the Jenna Shea's of the world 30k for a bone... just clownish, ego-centric, disrespectful players. Dwight fits perfectly in there.
Doing well, rando. How bout you? i just haven't been on gaf much
I got mine last week and I think it's amazing.
No complaints about it at all. Massive upgrade over the DS3, and I used to like the DS3.

Ewing is gonna give us that work.
Feels pretty good. I'm testing it with 2k. Unfortunately you have to get a mod so the icons match the buttons and don't just say "1 2 3 4"
The biggest difference is I don't feel like my thumbs keep wanting to slip off the joysticks, and it's wider so I don't feel cramped
The triggers actually feel like triggers now
The only thing I don't like about DS controllers with 2k is that I like to use the d-pad menu a lot, and it's better on 360-----on this one you have to move your left thumb completely to the left instead of being able to slide it down quickly like on 360

Yea, sony's adherence to the symetrical sticks makes no sense. With the lightbar, D-Pad, and touch pad they've got enough differences from the 360 controller to be their own original product.

So what are the common things that players do to demonstrate they care?
"players only meeting"
"coming into camp in the best shape of their entire career"
"first one to practice, last one out"
"go to the movies/have dinner together as a team"
"always watching game tape"
What else am I missing?

It's iconic to the platform at this point.
I never had an issue with the DS3 but I have Alex Smith hands so there is that.

Teletovic and Shengelia for Shumpert. Please God let it happen.
Teletovic is actually a pretty good stretch 4, he's just had trouble getting minutes because of our 9000 other competent big men. We don't need him, and we could use Shumpert to add some athleticism to the roster.

You can actually enter the contest for free now but it ends in a day. I pulled a Anthony Bennett went like 0 for 15. Thankfully I did not eat like 12 of those.

Dolan is not doing business with Prokhorov.
You're probably right, and the real trade will probably be much worse when it happens.

Was Yao ever shit on like that though? I get the impression that players take exception to the fact that Lin wasn't heavily recruited because of his race or the perception that he received his contract because of it.

did anyone else imagine darkside as some chubby asian kid
lin gets shit on because of his 10 day show which got him a 3 year multi million dollar contract. he's eatin good. dudes have been doin it for far longer and can't even get a break into the league and his run was barely over a week and he gets paid

Bargnani as the center. Kemba is gonna eat real good tonight.
i got you
Wait. You think the way the Rockets are treating him is right? Smh. Dude went undrafted when he clearly deserved better, he paid his dues in the D-League and never gave up until he got his lucky break. What is there to hate about that?

Dwight is a fucking clown. I wish Yao and Bynum never got injured so we could have some quality 5s to watch in this league. Dwight is a straight liability for any team.
Also, not sure why Rockets are chewing out Lin. Lin has been playing well so far this year. This team is a joke though. First-round fodder.

Yup, he spent a year on the bench/in the D-league for Golden State. Made a huge stride during the offseason b/t year 1 and year 2 and was cut from the W's before they even worked him out because management was clearing out cap space to put a huge offer out for DJ.

Lin is getting chewed out because hes literally the only target. Dwight, Harden and Parsons gotta blame somebody for their shit and total lack of effort. Lin has been the most efficient scorer on the team so far this year.
McHale has to go. Dude is just letting those guys walk all over him and it's going to get worse.
