2013 Jan NBA Season lOT2| What Would Kobe Chu?
- Thread starter reilo
- Start date
I haaaaaated the jazz with a passion because Sloan would do juuuust enough to fuck us and then they would suck a fat one in the next round (97, then all those later years). They single handedly are going to keep T-Mac out of the hall of fame.
Smfh, first it was Stockton (who was dope, can't hate) and then that dirty bitch Malone. Then again it was Deron's ugly ass hair every night and the biggest baby bitch Boozer.
Now, I don't really hate them because Sloan is gone. And the only Utah fans I know are the ones on gaf, so its not too bad.

why?
It's considered sportsmanship in the NBA to not run up the score when victory is already ensured.
The funny thing is, it is the exact opposite in Europe. You play hard even in garbage time as a sign of respect to your opponent.
Is flopping part of playing hard?
If you flop like Griffin, you certainly are.

that's why i was confused. i'm european. if you don't beat my as hard as you can while playing i'm insulted.
i just googled "running up the score". wtf is this shit?
It's probably better for the crowd if teams continue to play hard, but that also increases the chance of unnecessary injuries, given the grueling schedule of the NBA.

Speaking of The Dream, the 84 draft will never be topped. Hakeem, Jordan, Barkley, Stockton, Willis, and Perkins. The 03 draft was great but it can't top 84.
Edit: Anyone else think Willis belongs in the Hall?

I've said it before the moment Kobe realize he has no chance of winning the scoring title the better it will be for the team. He's already a point behind Durant now. I think he will stop gunning because he knows he won't win the title.
KD for MVP!

So how long until Kobe goes back to gunning each game and neglecting teammates?
Or is this Kobe Nash hybrid gonna last the whole season??
If he's making 75% of his shots and they losing he gonna mamba

It always baffles me how J Crawford could be blessed with such sick handles and at the same time be such a terrible passer. Good handles and good passing skills should go hand in hand...

Utah needs to strike now while the iron is hot and get what they can for Jefferson. The Bobcats are there for you Jazz-gaf. Tell him we have the best furniture makers in the country in Highpoint, they'll make him the best bed money can buy.
The only thing the Bobcats have that we'd want is their #3 pick and an apology for what they've done to the sport the last couple of years.

Why would the Raptors want to trade away Ed Davis and spend $19 million on Rudy Gay, who's only a marginal upgrade on DeRozan and would have $36 million sunk into 3 non-all star wing players, when their Lebron is in the next draft?
Some franchises are just run by short-sighted fools.

I don't think we'd offer that, we'd probably give you our Detroit pick though.
We'd still be bad top 5 bad with Al, our team needs a competent big to help the rest of our guys develop properly. What we're putting on the court now is too bad, we need an upgrade asap.

Are there rumors of The Bobcats wanting Al or is Cats-age hoping Jefferson will mentor the young guys?
AI Turns down D-League offer.

Is he playing anywhere currently? Last I remember he was in Turkey a while back
to seem as if he is overcompensating for drafting bargnani
all bullshit of course as we're likely going to keep bargnani and this is all a ploy so that he could be put back in the starting line up.
What in the hell is this from??

but if i could get rid of either Bargnani or Derozan for Gay I would definitely think about it...
I'd prefer to give up Calderon over Lowry if we have to trade a PG as well. I am not interested in signing Calderon long term... we've tried this direction for the last 7 or 8 years and it hasn't really worked out. And given his play this season, I think it's unrealistic to expect him to sign a contract where he gets paid less than 7 mil/year.

There aren't any rumors, I've seen some of our fans discuss it though. DY doesn't want him, but we need someone who can score in the post badly and we will have some money to spend at the end of season so I think it's worth a shot. I sincerely doubt Al wants to play in Charlotte, but stranger things have happened.
Edit: Some of our fans are still under the delusion that Chris Paul wants to come back to NC to be closer to his friends/family which is crazy. Us trading for guys a tier below him like Pekovic/Jefferson/West/etc is a heck of a lot more realistic, even though the likelihood is still small.
whether or not he wants to play for them (i mean, who really WANTS to play for teams liek the bobcats and raptors) I think he won't cause a stink. He's been a part of some really bad teams already so whatever...
but with that said, I don't think you guys need a player like Jefferson. He'll add a few wins which can be the difference from a number 1 or 2 pick to a 5 or 6 pick.
and I get what you (or was it someone else) were saying about the losing culture...but the addition of a surefire superstar changes all of that IMO. Soon as you got a guy like that, you become instantly more attractive to coaches, scouts, and your franchise no longer looks like a dead zone. A guy like Parker or Wiggins combined with Kemba/MKG/Biyombo can quickly change the culture from a perennial loser to an up and coming team. And THEN you should go after guys like Jefferson.

I'm just not sure if The Bobcats are done tanking, do you think Kemba/Hendo/MKG/This year's pick & Al can do anything worthwhile? I'd rather let the 4 young guys try to figure it out and maybe get another good pick for 2014.

Bargnani's not going anywhere, nobody's taking that contract. I mean, maybe there's a trade out there, but it would probably be for something even worse. Like somebody probably still owes Darius Miles $10 million or something.
I don't see how you can have both Gay and DeRozan, I don't think they compliment one another at all. Of course, I don't see how you can have a front court of Turkoglu, Bargnani and Bosh either, but Colangelo is that crazy.
And yeah, this is probably Calderon's last season as a Raptor. And maybe that's for the best, he's never been able to solidify himself as starter, so we've just had 7 years of non-stop PG controversy. Let him find his destiny as the Lakers' Euro-Fisher.

I'm too cynical to expect someone like Wiggins to fall into our laps. We could tank for another two years and still not find that guy. We have to try though, and you're right that signing Al would make it even less likely.
LegendofJoe

We're definitely not done tanking, if it came to it we'd find a way to sit guys. Teams say they don't do this, but anyone with a brain knows this is BS.

The way The NBA is setup even with the new rules that encouraging building through the draft a smaller market team going after an Al Jefferson type while they're not done collecting young talent and picks is a death sentence. A middling playoff team in the east and then back to the drawing board.
The Cats have to suffer for a bit longer and hope they nab the next once in a generation player.
