this wait is killing me.

Well rested. What times the MVP conference tomorrow?

[darkside31337]

I'd like to see kawhi leonard more featured in the spurs' offense. He and Parsons were really good this year.

What else do you want from him?

I think Pop has gotten the most he possibly can out of a 21 year old who can only shoot corner 3s and doesn't have a great overall offensive game.

I think he can do more if given more responsibility. He can somewhat create his own shot and is athletic enough, makes smart decisions and plays solid defense. Parson's and Kawhi's ceilings are about the same.

What does it mean in practical terms?
Let him run isos?

I really don't think that's a winning formula for the Spurs, unless he has some really mismatched defender on him.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Knicks targeting Game 3 for Amare' return.

So...Knicks lose Game3 then? PEACE.

Bill Simmons ‏@BillSimmons 39m
Also hearing there's a legit chance CP3 doesn't sign there now. It's wide-open. They'd have to hire a coach he likes, and even then...

Bill Simmons ‏@BillSimmons 38m
PS: Nobody is more excited about my last tweet than @mcuban and @swish41 ... Because they know CP3 is in play now. And wants a real coach.

adam no

It's PI. He's only ever watched the Heat in the Lebron era and assumes everyone can just iso create.

Pretty much.

Knicks aren't built to deal with coitus-ball.

tbh, I'm not sure. give him more shots, involve him in more plays(pop's system does that pretty well though.) I guess, give him more ball handling duties I guess, which will probably happen since Manu might retire this year.

but he does benefit a TON because he plays on a team with timmy,manu and parker

It's PI. He's only ever watched the Heat in the Lebron era and assumes everyone can just iso create.

hey, it's the guy that only watches lakers games and thinks that nobody wanted to face a kobe lakers squad in the playoffs this year.

 

[Dominican Power]

CP3 and Dirk

 

[CreepingFear]

CP3 and Boozer after the Bulls trade Rose for CP3 in sign and trade.

Lebron era? Don't you mean this is his first year?

 

[Herpes Reasons]

BTW the sports media is already starting the "Where will Dwight/CP3 go?" to make sure people keep visiting their sites after the Playoffs

come to the real LA cp3. you know kobe and dwight trifecta sounds hot as fuck.

Honestly, if d'antoni can get trash like lin to look good, he might get paul an mvp lol

Some universal power really has it out for the Bulls at this point.

I'm not a doctor, but that doesn't sound too good.

dantoni is trash,lakers are doomed as long as he is there.

 

[too much eslim]

I ask again why should anybody have faith in the Nets? All season they have been choking. Heck they've been choking in this series. outside of game 1 every game has been a struggle for them.

The Nets will be in position to win and choke again . I can't even see the Nets beating the Heat once. At least with the Bulls I know they will give the Heat hell for 5 or 6 games.

 

[h3ro]

I'm not a doctor, but that doesn't sound too good.

A blood patch is what's done to close up and speed up healing when there is a traumatic tapping of cerebrospinal fluid in the spine. You get a horrible headache but it's usually self limiting after a while (varies from hours to a few days).

I guess you didn't hear Mamba's mom is trying auction off some of his basketball memorabilia.

Phil, Kobe, CP3, Dwight, LeBron, Love

i like the way you think, soldier.

i like the cut of your jib too

[Derwind]

So the Rockets lost because Lin played lol.

Yeah Lin did practically fuck all for 13 mins, but so did Brooks....

Rockets lost because OKC's bench completely dominated Houstons bench... And all those sloppy turnovers.... so sloppy....

Lin didn't play in the 2 games they won i believe.

Took 4+ days for Haberstroh.

 

[Derwind]

Lin didn't play in the 2 games they won i believe.

Yeah and both were very close games.

Not saying Lin isn't a factor, of course he is. The Rockets rotation obviously was affected and his lack of production in the minutes he was out clearly changed the game up.

But he's just one factor in the Houstons blueprint for disaster.

As a team they lost in freethrows, missing 11 of 31 freethrows, they took way more 3 point attempts then needed, there turnovers were atrocious miscues and sloppy ball handling...

All things they can work on...

Some of the Bulls are literally dying.

Some of the Bulls are literally dying.

Yet the Nets do not inspire confidence. I find it hard to believe they can do it when we all know they should.

Yes just like I said would happen.

 

[Black Mamba]

hey, it's the guy that only watches lakers games and thinks that nobody wanted to face a kobe lakers squad in the playoffs this year.

why you so salty, your team about to run the league?

Also, nobody wanted to and nobody did face that team. Lucky for them. Especially Miami. Would have been a 4 game sweep with Lebron bowing to Kobe by the end. In literal form.


edit: I'm predicting a Nets blowout with no Deng there. If it's not, they should be banished to Valhalla.

Deng has been invisible in that series.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

.

A lot of those are true though?

 

[reggieandTFE]

Deng has been invisible in that series.

Offensively he was good in the 3rd quarter of game 3.

Defensively, he's been solid and helps make up for Nate's weaknesses.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Rose getting killed. And it's deserved. I'd be livid if dirk was doing what rose is doing.

 

[RockTurtle]

i should add HGH to the list

 

[cacophony]

does anyone else want Chi to win tonight just so this Rose thing can keep going?

Under McHale the only thing that will be worked on is raising everyone's 3pt%
