Pickup BBall

[LnGrrrR]

Ok guys... work's slow today, so in the middle of paperwork, figured I'd start up this conversation.

Let's pretend the NBA is a giant pick-up game.

I pick first, and I'm taking Kobe. Who you got?

*remember, not only how well you do, but how cool you look doing it is important... it might score you some hot females that are watching after all, which makes picking TD worth less than it normally might :lol *

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Lebron.

[pauls931]

I guess I'd take lebron next.

[LnGrrrR]

Chris Paul.

[pauls931]

Chris Paul.

LBJ, then Howard, no rebounds for you!

[monosylab1k]

Baron Davis if I'm goin for style points.

[LnGrrrR]

LBJ, then Howard, no rebounds for you!

LOL fine, I'm grabbing KG then. You're right, I need some rebounds. :)

[dirk4mvp]

OJ Mayo then Randolph, Anthony. The chode bloading then commences.

[dirk4mvp]

JR Smith 2nd pick

lol Courtney Lee

[gaKNOW!blee]

I would take Josh Smith if its a pick up game. Probably lots of dunk opportunities.

[Dex]

I'll take Tim. Fuck the haters.

TD is a pimp.

[JamStone]

KG. That asshole will punch Ricky Rickert in the throat in a pre-season practice. He'll play like that against 5'7" dudes at the rec center.

Which reminds me of a time I was in New Orleans and Jerald Honeycutt came in the rec center to play some pick-up. No guys taller than like 6'2" on the court. And, Honeycutt was posting up these little dudes, calling and-ones, arguing calls. Part of me respected the fact he didn't let up against pick-up players. The other part of me thought, "what a fucking jackass. Does he not realize he's a 6'7" NBA player playing against a bunch of short guys, half of which probably didn't even play high school ball."

[dirk4mvp]

Fuck you homo.

Lee will be better than Mayo in 5 years.

Also better than any Maverick Fag you have.

lol missing 2 lay ups

lol false

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Juice might be a top 5 player in 5 years.....how the fuck will Courtney Lee be better than him.

[dirk4mvp]

Lol starting on NBA Finals team.

lol hasnt happened for 20 years.

lol jose juan barea



If OJ Mayo sucked, he would've been drafted lower, thus having a great chance at being on a Finals team.

[dirk4mvp]

Wrong.

Mayo "Wants" to be the centerpiece of his team. He cant be second fiddle to anyone.

He will never make it past the 1st round, because he isnt a player that can take you that far.

lol owned.

You know this how?

Mayo is better than Lee in every conceivable way.

[BUMP]

i dont think you can have a pickup game without Rasheed Wallace

[dirk4mvp]

Except for Defense and possibly driving through the lane.

Congrats. You got both wrong.

[JamStone]

Lol starting on NBA Finals team.

lol hasnt happened for 20 years.


Daniel Gibson started in two games in the 2007 NBA Finals as a rookie.

In case you didn't know.

[Leetonidas]

Uh...I'd take Dwight Howard first. Who the fuck is going to stop Dwight Howard in a pick up game? After him, probably Yao Ming.

[Chieflion]

Who the hell is going to stop Rafer Alston in a pickup game?

[stretch]

Lebron without question. Playground rules??? Add to that his incredible size and strength? He can just bull through everybody. Guys will be fucked up after that game.

[Killakobe81]

I agree Im taking Dwight he can run, dunk and he will not face the Lakers strongside zone in a pickup game ...plus there are no FT's...

[stretch]

Dwight would be my second

[Stump]

I've got Artest. Don't screw with us or you'll get stabbed.

[KidCongo]

KD next.

[urunobili]

Manu...

[JamStone]

Who the hell is going to stop Rafer Alston in a pickup game?

The rim, himself, Eddie House?

[DPG21920]

Is this a joke, I would easily still take Shaq. No 3 seconds? No fouls?

[dirk4mvp]

There's always the one chode who tries to call 3 seconds.

[gaKNOW!blee]

There's always the one chode who tries to call 3 seconds.

Its usually the guy whos getting worked over inside.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

If Orlando had Juice instead of Courtney Lee they'd have a potential dynasty.

[ffadicted]

Playing pickup ball with KG would be so fucked up

[duncan228]

Playing pickup ball with KG would be so fucked up

Gbj_untnoVg

[Leetonidas]

Manu Ginobili would be badass to see in a pickup game.

[ffadicted]

Manu Ginobili would be badass to see in a pickup game.

He'd be out there breaking some ankles with his skills

Unfortunately, they'd be his own

Bad jokes rule

[BlackSwordsMan]

shaq and cadilliac two fat asses no one can stop

[bdictjames]

Tim Duncan.

Who the heck would enjoy playing with Kobe in a pick-up game? The guy would probably jack up everytime he touches it, or chew on you everytime you miss a shot. Fuck that.

[Amaso]

My starting 5 would be

Rafer Alston - Skip 2 My Lou
Kobe Bryant - Obvious
Lebron James - Obvious
Ron Artest - he'll stab you, anything goes
Kevin Garnett - sheer intensity

[DPG21920]

Shaq-C
Dwight-PF
Dirk-SF
Lebron-SG
Kobe-PG
