This is some rec center basketball between the sixers and mavs.

 

[thehypocrite]

Waiters is a horrible player.

 

[Soonri]

Welp, Mavs got the win. I'll take it since it's a road back-to-back, even if it is the Sixers.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Waiters is a horrible player.

I don't know how I feel about him, tbh. Are there any teams out there that need a decent 2 guard? I'd happily move him for a defensive 2 guard or a defensive center.

 

[Jeff-DSA]

G-TYME happened, it just wasn't enough.

 

[WesternHeretic]

MCW stat line holy DAMN.

Still lose... LMAO. You guys think Philly can break their own record this year?

Wait for the trade deadline and a tanking team will give up a big for a 2 to try and get a bit worse.

 

[overcast]

Harden played well tonight, as did Dmo. Recover after that awful game against the clippers.

Still, we're now starting Jason Terry at PG. Send help.

 

[Pathos]

I wonder if the 76ers are gonna win a game anytime soon. I don't follow the team but I feel bad for them.

Don't feel bad for them. They are trying to suck. Feel bad for the first team that loses to them. *prays that it is not the wolves*

 

[Splatt]

What's up with Hornets. They suck harder than Bobcats

No spacing, most of their wing is garbage shooter. Can't have that in today NBA.

haven't found a groove yet for a lot of reasons. injuries have been annoying. our different units aren't close to being set yet because of it. MKG needs to get back asap. he sets the defensive tone for our starters. will help with the energy level to start and finish games off, which has been a big problem for us. also gary neal has been out and he's one of our better bench players. marvin williams is out too which makes zeller a starter. zeller really shines being an energy player off the bench. also stephenson is still finding his game, al is still getting his groove back, and kemba hasn't found his shot yet. oh and defensive mistakes. and rebounding. mostly rebounding actually.

Are they playing the Knicks or Lakers soon?

Both reasonings seem valid.

Admittedly, the only Hornets game I've watched is their 1st against Bucks, it just seems that, looking only at the statistics, apart from Big Al, everyone else is chucking bricks. Especially Kemba and Lance.

There's also the defensive problem and lack of MKG, as phanphare wrote, is probably the biggest reason for that.

Shame really, I hope they find their groove soon. I love watching Big Al work in the paint and the whole franchise rebranding(especially the court).

as shitty as it sounds whenever we're healthy add like 15 games to that...

and I really can't stress MKG enough. people locally used to used to bitch about MKG a lot because he didn't have any offense. it was either last season or the season before but MKG was out for a handful of games and there were comparison stats for points allowed, rebounding, wins/losses, 2nd chance points, etc. and it was pretty clear what MKG brings to the table. I'm just glad his offense is coming along so people can stfu about him.

[Forceatowulf]

They'll get their W eventually. Speaking of which, when do the Sixers play the Lakers?

 

[zroid]

I figure there'll be at least one game of being terrible before they get used to not having DeMar around


oh god we're going to lose to the Lakers...

 

[ZeroMaverick]

Happy to see Houston in 3rd right now. That'll change come Wednesday

 

[fertygo]

Jimmy Butler getting Fts in even more shadier way than Harden if you ask me.

 

[Fjordson]

9 in a row for Golden State. Even though our schedule hasn't been too tough recently.

 

[Perfect Blue]

 

[Jigolo]

Why are the Knicks catching up they're supposed to be terrible

 

[Jigolo]

wowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowo welcome back d wade

 

[Pathos]

raps starting off slow

 

[Pimpwerx]

Fuck da Knicks! Fuck da Knicks! FUCK DA KNICKS! PEACE.

Edit: Gabrielle Union with the video bomb today. Security guard looked like he wanted to stop her, but then realized he was powerless before that kind of beauty. Cotdamn, that woman is still gorgeous.

 

[Cloudy]

I feel any big guy off the street would be a better rim protector than what LA has. WTF

 

[djkeem]

"The fact that Kobe is passing pisses me off like you wouldn't believe". - raps fan. lol.

 

[Cloudy]

Kobe out here channeling Magic. Wow

 

[Gotdatmoney]

Lakers shooting well, Raps shooting shit. Bout sums up my feelings. Ross can't guard Kobe. James Johnson handling Kobe fine. Pretty much what I expected. The team clearly misses DeMarvelous.

 

[Soonri]

Kobe out here channeling Magic. Wow

He's ALWAYS had that ability for great passing... he just thinks it's better if he shoots (a lot).

Raps D should feel bad about this half - Lakers can still score (and I'm pretty sure it's not because of Byron Scott). Casey will get on his guys though - they will probably whip LA in the second half.

 

[Cloudy]

Who's the oldest to have a triple double? Kidd?

[Pathos]

raptors are shooting horribly

 

[Cloudy]

raptors are shooting horribly

And only trailing by one. They will win easily

 

[Pathos]

yeah i don't doubt that they're gonna win but they can't play like this next game

 

[Gotdatmoney]

First game without DeMar. They gotta feel out the offense because Derozan's large quantity of shots have to be spread around. They seem to have picked it up, it's the 3 ball that has been missing.

 

[Soonri]

Bob Sacre getting points and rebounds over Psycho-T is hilarious.

 

[Cloudy]

OMG KOBE

 

[The Last Emperor]

Fuck kobe

 

[MPW]

ross lol

raps need to trade him and get someone better if they want to make it to nba finals

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Kobe with the Rock Bottom / People's Elbow combo. GAT-DAYUMN.

 

[Pathos]

one final push
lets go raps

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Two FT misses for Kob', though. That's gonna bite 'em in the butt these closing minutes.

 

[MPW]

vasquez is f'n horrible in defense

 

[Pathos]

for fuck sakes

 

[MPW]

raps losing to lakers

eastern conference is a f'n joke

In fairness, Houston also lost to the Lakers (even though Dwight is a much larger loss than DeRozan).

 

[The Last Emperor]

Ross babyyyyyy
