The NBA will fine Nets coach Jason Kidd $50,000 for his stunt with the dropped cup in loss to Lakers, league sources tell Yahoo.

Knicks hold a meeting because they suck(lol)
Cavs hold a meeting because they suck(lol)
but the REAL question is when are the Bucks gonna hold a meeting?

Last time bucks held a meeting sanders ended up drunk and slicing open his hand.
Not sure they'll be holding more of them.

Why do the Bucks need to hold a meeting? They'll still make the playoffs like last year.

they need to hold a meeting to make sure they don't
they're not making it regardless though.
ownership wants them to be a treadmill team forever, they got lucky Sanders went down.

Maybe the Knicks will try to suck a little more for that bottom of the conference position.
Also is Portland for real this year guys?

Played ball with a bunch of college kids last summer claiming Allen Iverson was the greatest player of all time. Feels weird running into kids these days at the park that know nothing of 90's NBA...

Dec 5th, Knicks @ Nets. Kidd vs Woodson. The team that lose fires its coach. That should be entertaining.

Not even sure how much of it is kidd's fault.
I mean, they took a long shot that KG and PP would be able to produce. They knew it was a gamble.
I wonder if Jason Kidd would come play for us again after he gets fired?
A 4 draft pick gamble (4!). New York basketball ladies and gentlemen.

Actually me too. I don't think the Knicks firing Woodson would solve anything either.
I liked how his assistants didn't even get the defensive schemes and were arguing it.
Woodson seems to be knee deep in the struggle.
Or you know, Tyson Chandler...
Watch more Jabari Parker

Has Riggin for Wiggins officially been swapped out in favor of Playin Sorry for Jabari?
I need to actually watch some college games, these mixtapes are misleading.

Jabari is fucking amazing. I would literally faint if we were in position to draft him. I'll probably be sitting on a couch when they do the lottery draw just in case.

There's not that much separation in the top 6 right now with Wiggins, Parker, Randle, Embiid, Exum, and Smart.
Parker is going against an NBA level defensive player tonight so that would be a decent game to watch. Duke doesn't defend either so they're more interesting than other college basketball teams.
Kg /garnett needed rondo to function at a high level. Deron Williams is out and so is lopez. I don't think he gets fired until they come back.

Probably not. Wiggins is still barely 200 pounds at 6'8 and yet his college stats are still really solid for a freshmen.
It's going to probably be one of those things where a GM has to clench his teeth and kind of go on potential vs an established skillset, but I'd still take Wiggins over Jabari.
Super late to this but
A) I never said I expected 8.5 APG for his whole career to consider him a true PG, I said for a SINGLE SEASON. Baby steps.
B) The bolded absolutely did have everything to do with the conversation because your original "argument" for why Wall is a true PG showed me a bunch of numbers from <20 games so far this season and those weren't on absolute numbers, They were rankings as compared to other PG's/Players so far, just like the bolded statement in your last response. This was your argument:
So telling me he's 1st in the league in this, 3rd in the league in this, etc. is a weak argument when Rondo, Nash, Deron, Rose, and Westbrook are all injured or recovering from major surgery. PG Rankings over <20 games in that environment don't mean shit, which is why I went back to his APG over a single season numbers.

Tony Parker has never averaged 8 assists per game, fucking shooting guard.
system player etc etc
No PG Under Pop has, that's just the system he runs. Same thing with the Triangle. Features dumping into the post and letting them take their time and work which usually negates assists. And in later years Pop was focused on creating all sorts of insanely unpredictable offensive sets and using Tony to facilitate the offense and score.
Regardless I think my point still stands, It's silly to point to a ~15 game sample size for a score first PG as him being a True PG, and it's silly to use rankings in relation to other PG's over A) ~15 games and B) When 5 of the best players at that position are out or injured. .

dude
act like you been here
Do you really think any of those guys other than Nash and Rondo are better at creating shots for others than Wall?
Lets not act like Deron isn't dead and Nash isn't broken either.

i have to echo faze that randle not having a single steal yet is a concern, that and he also seems the most like a "power guy bullying smaller college players who may not be able to do in the nba"

Those are definitely concerns and I would probably take him after Parker, Wiggins, and Embiid at this point but he's still produced a lot and it's early and he's still 2nd on most draft sites.
