Awesome pic.

Ryan Anderson is the best at something!

 

[Jeff-DSA]

The first xbox was the best built system ever. You could hit someone with an xbox and when you pluged it back in it worked.

The GameCube was actually more durable. That thing could have been used to build bunkers.

Throwing money at someone is a deep insult in most countries.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

I haven't paid for a launch system aside from the Vita since the GameCube. I don't think I have the media clout this time around to score a free PS4 or the next Xbox though. Not unless my site blows up in the next few months, but I'm not working hard enough to make that happen.

And what site might that be friend?

I ain't here to hawk my wares.

We have like 7 players for the game. All I have to look forward to is Zach punking Perkins. Surprised Stern hasn't fined us yet for messing up a TNT game.

Never hit a person with a gamecube, but I never had problems with mine. PS2 was the only system that gave me problems from that gen. Still regret trading in my xbox and gamecube.

It didn't break. At the time I was in my teens and drunk. And the dude I hit asked me to do it. Xbox was huge for a console.

Ps4? But I never played the metal gear with Snake as an old man. This generation hasn't been long enough.

 

[Future PhaZe]

ahahahaha what?

Not even really worried about Ps4 life. Just wanting the green light to start building a next generation PC.

 

[charsace]

You never did crazy shit while in college? That's the whole point of living on campus. I once knocked someone out with a matress too.

The right kind of crazy, like the right kind of 3somes. or maybe drinking game.
you, my friend. you've got some fucked up angry management issues going on.

 

[Omega]

[ratcliffja]

So how many jobs will we need for a ps4? Sony's either going to charge a ton, underpower it, or both.

 

[The Frankman]

Prigs didn't make the BBVA Rookie Team.

Cope buried himself with his schizo play in January.

Where's the list?

 

[ThisWreckage]

So, last night's laker loss was just...wow.


I'm not even scared of Portland or Houston. I'm scared of Dallas, once Dirk gets back to form that team is easily going to outplay this LA team the rest of the way.


Either LA turns the corner, plays like a top tier team playing .700-.750 ball the rest of the way and then makes noise in the playoffs. Or ends up a 10th or 11th seed and D'Antoni replaces Del Harris as the guy who got the least success with the most talent in Laker history.



Edit: Btw - I ran some numbers on this recent "Kobe Johnson" 4 game stretch. He's shooting 53% from the field. But his scoring efficiency has actually gone down if you track it as points per shot attempt. Being less aggressive scoring wise means he's taken less threes, and less free throws (only 14 FTA in 4 games).

Basically means he's scored 66 points on 51 shots = 1.29 points per FGA. Whereas earlier in the year he was about 30 ppg on 22 shots or 1.36. points per shot.

So even though his season FG% was 46% and his 4 game stretch is 53%. He's scoring less points per shot attempt. Another reason I think FG% is overrated as a metric of scoring prowess or efficiency.

Dallas will not make the playoffs this year unless they pull the trigger on a trade. That is possible because they have a ton of expiring contracts, but don't count on it. I'm 100% convinced they would have been a shoe-in for the playoffs this year, but Dirk's injury kept him out way longer than they thought it would and their overtime/close game record is among the worst in the NBA.

 

[jjasper]

I still want someone to explain how a team with the 7th best record in the west over the last 2 months is a contender. In theory yeah the team is a contender but in reality it wasn't.


Edit: and couldn't have made the deal after the end of the year because the player option would have limited the amount to teams we could work with.

 

[The Frankman]

Where's the list?

TNT. lil Kyrie made the Soph team, of course. But how does Tyler Zeller make the Rookie Team Pool? And Dion Waiters?

I'll rewind and post the pool of draftable players.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Where's the list?

Rookies

Davis and Lillard lead a group of rookies that includes Harrison Barnes (Warriors)
Bradley Beal (Washington Wizards), Andre Drummond (Detroit Pistons), Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (Bobcats), Alexey Shved (Minnesota Timberwolves), Dion Waiters (Cavaliers), and Tyler Zeller (Cavaliers)

[jjasper]

Holy hell that "analysis" of the trade was awful. How can anyone say Rudy Gay is a ball handler?

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Kanter is better than Knight and K Thompson, but he gets way fewer minutes so his PPG are a lot lower so whatever.

That thread is so hype, I don't even care about the Playstation and I'm hype.

[jjasper]

I understand being outmanned tonight but at least try and get a hand in a shooters face at some point.

 

[ThisWreckage]

I think I'm going with PS4 next generation. The PS3 had better and more reliable hardware and I love games like Gran Turismo and God of War. Oh, and anything Naughty Dog does.
