Agreed, Mjax would have ISO'd the mess out of the team to try to hold onto the lead getting away from what got them the lead in the first place. So glad he's gone. Not sold on Kerr yet, but it's looking good so far.

Man that looks awesome. That 3 was really ballsy.
I hope so man, but until then Knicks are gonna get wrecked by every decent team. Were going to get obliterated tonight at Cleveland lol
How was Lin?
Just came to post this BG, it's exciting. I might die.
Knicks are a bottom feeder. Melo who isnt even a winner is surrounded by basically all average players.

So much excitement around, feels like a huge party haha.

I'm already sick of the Knicks being on national tv all the time without merit.
Knicks were only out of the playoffs by 1 game this year. Looking at the rest of the east, they have a chance to get the necessary 40 or so wins to squeeze in.
Damn. Not really looking forward to seeing Kobe play this season out with the Lakers. They're going to be all-time bad, and he's seemingly ready to perform at a high level later in his career than a lot of greats. Shame to watch it wasted on this team. '06 Kobe would have trouble getting this team to 35 wins.
I'm expecting we'll see a Kobe suspension after blowing up on the court over some non-call. He may very well go down as graciously as the shitship LA is.
That said, the fact they're still coughing up the ball like crazy is just insane. I don't understand how an organization can have that as it's #1 problem consistently for so many years.
I'm glad to see others are having the same thoughts.
Yeah exactly. The ISOs are gone and it's incredibly exciting. I wanted Gentry as the new coach and we have him and Kerr, such an improved staff.

Man, the Hornets/Pelicans switcheroo is fucking me up lol. Catch myself thinking the Hornets are in our division.

I want to see Kobe have an oncourt meltdown like Billy crystal in that movie where he played a ref.

It's a new offense involving a lot more ball movement. Those types of turnovers are part of the growing pains.
The power of Kobe.

yeah, this is also happening to some extent with Blatt's Cavs

I don't know about last night (judging from the box score and that +/- I'd say he was terrible) but from what I saw against houston...he looked like the 9th man in the rotation out there. With the exception of a span of maybe 5 min in the 3rd quarter, Lin played like garbage (characteristic unforced turnovers and just absolutely shutdown by Beverly). I can see why Byron Scott didn't want to start Lin. If this continues, he seriously will be out of the L after this year.

New offense that's based on a ton of ball movement (I mean even Mo Speights passed the ball around and he even posted double figure scoring) + coaching staff was mixing and matching lineups all night to find one that worked. It's going to take time (from what I saw the ball movement overall was promising).
The better he plays, the least likely we're going to be able to re-up him.
Ah, that makes sense. Just hope it doesn't stick around all season.
And don't kill my Draymond vibe =[
I can't wait for my Cavaliers to begin their dominance tonight. It's time to show all those bandwagon fans in Miami how to properly root for LeBron. In fact, we don't even have to change a thing, because we were so unwavering in our support for the Cavaliers even when he was gone.

Now I remember why I disliked the Cavs. The bandwagon fans and the actual fans are equally insufferable.
Then I tune into ESPN and it's sportscenter all day live from Cleveland. Then I read headlines like this
Fucking pathetic man.

being a heat fan since i was 12 and Zo was taking 15 minutes to shoot a free throw, i now know what it must've been like to suffer through the last 4 seasons if you didn't like miami.
Great game by our team last night, but I wanna see how we do with the Bulls, Hornets, and especially cleveland because this shit is getting ridiculous already with them.

The name change (and accompanying new logo, jerseys, colors) gave Charlotte new life. Such a great idea whoever thought of it. That whole team looks rejuvenated. Tons of excitement in the air.

What you have against the real fans? They been through some brutal ass stretches.
That Hornets court looks soooo good

That is pretty nice but not as nice as my Cavs court with the beautiful skyline.
All for one, Tom Penny. And one for all.

Loser entitlement.
"We've lost for so long we DESERVE to win."
Bullfuckingshit. Sports is awesome because it's a meritocracy. No such thing as deserve in sports. You win because you prepared to become the best.
My Dolphins haven't won shit in 40 years. I don't think I deserve a Super Bowl because I've gone through 17 different starting quarterbacks since Dan Marino.

it does help that we still have the only undefeated championship season, though. And it could always be worse: we could've been the 90s Bills that got so close but never made it for 4 years in a row.
but yeah, i understand cleveland's loaded with losing years but i can't root against the heat and i hope that the cavs never ever win with lebron there.
Pretty as hell.That Hornets court looks soooo good
.
Wow, MKG is on fire. I really like watching them play when they came upon league pass so im glad i got the bigger version so i can watch them wheneverMKG's shot chart:
I'm not sure where i heard this, was probably the BS report with Lowe and Voulgaris, but there was a lot of talk about how smart Kerr was to get a bunch of assistants who are smart in the things he has little to no idea. Seems like it paid off last night. The Win shares on the coaching change has to be huge
Also, are the Hornets using the 3D court projection system? Looks like it from the picture, but im not sure if it was a rental for opening night or a permanent thing
As a Cubs fan, Cleveland fans are the worst for "woe is me, we never win!" I dont like new york, cleveland or Stl cards fans. Everyone else i can put up with

not really. 2 world series wins, 3 NBA championships, and one national college football championship in the last 15-20 years aint that bad at all. Plenty of partying has been done in the city.

I'm 29 years old and have lived here in Miami for 18 years. Became a fan of the Miami teams since 1999 once I knew this would be my permanent home and not just another stop (except baseball because fuck that boring mess).
The Dolphins have been horse shit in that time period except for like 4 seasons.
That undefeated season is completely irrelevant to me since I didn't live it. To me it's nothing but an old legend that stuffy, out of touch with reality, old homers who probably call WQAM and post on Finheaven.com won't shut up about. The only thing it was good for to me was to troll the fuck out of Patriots fans and the Patriots-loving national media after they got Eli'd the first time.

Cant wait for Lebron to bail next year after the city setting such insane expectations.

Damn thats tough. I guess its a good thing that he got paid and hes got an economics degree from Harvard lol

he isn't going anywhere for the rest of his career. Dan Gilbert basically gave him the keys to the Cavs organization and no other team is going to give him the level of control he has now with the cavs.
