2012-13 All NBA Heartless Team

[midnightpulp]

G: Steve Nash (over exaggerates the severity of his injuries to keep himself out the lineup. Flatout quit on the Lakers in the playoffs).

G: Derrick Rose (no further elaboration necessary).

F: ???

F: ???

C: Dwight Howard (purposely got his 2nd tech to get thrown out of a playoff game because he was getting embarrassed).

Who should we slot in at the forward positions?

[DAF86]

Carmelo? Amare?

[DAF86]

RJ. Motherfucking RJ.

I'm little obsessed, I admit. But Lkrfan, like Kool, is full on consumed with Duncan.

That's about the 20th time he's posted that graph in the last 12 hrs.

Guess he's not over the sweep, yet.

Wasn't det the year Kirby claimed he was too scared to play because of "the terrorists" but actually was just too busy with The Rape?

I think Duncan is NBA ref-dependent. FIBA-refs won't bail him out. Throughout his HOF career, he's been protected. FIBA-refs don't play that shit and he knows it. That's why he said he'll never play in the Olympics again. :cry What type of asshole turns down the opportunity to play for his country? I bet if it were a dungeons and dragon tourney he'd win G:lolld then.

[james evans]

explain when has duncan ever been the type of player to get touch fouls at any point in his career. and i don't think rose is heartless. an acl injury is an acl injury. some can come back quicker than others. u got to realize he's wearing adidas shoes and he's stuck in that contract. i'd be afraid to play too.

No bailout needed. He averaged 13 points per game on 57% shooting. 7 percentage points higher than his NBA career mark.

Unlike Kirby, whose FIBA shooting percentage is actually lower than his NBA career shooting percentage. :lmao

It's looks like Duncan isn't the one who needs the refs here.

There you go again with your shooting percentages schtick :lol. I told you, at least with me, it's futile. Let you tell it, Kobe should be lucky to make one all star team (ala AC Green) - let alone, be a 1st ballot HOFer. But that's besides the point...

Duncan has shot 7% higher than his career averages. If that is the case, why does he not want to play in the Olympics anymore? It should be fun to shoot a Shaq-like 57%. Your answer will tell me if you are trolling or not. :wakeup

Truth be told, he wasn't happy with the officiating. He never explicitly stated it, but it was implied. Despite that, it didn't stop him from putting up comparable numbers to other star bigmen who've played in the Olympics.

The reason I refuse to have an honest discussion about this with you and deflect is because you're intellectually dishonest and not interested in serious debate. Blaming Robinson for 1988 is another indication of your bias. He scored 19 points and pulled down 12 boards in the loss to the USSR, holding Sabonis to 13 points. But if it makes you feel better about the sweep and the fact the 2012-13 Lakers are the biggest failure in NBA history, feel free to blame Spurs players for US Olympic failures.

You're one to talk. You blame Kobe for missing the playoffs "during his prime" when you know damn well he played with a shitty roster. Just as funny, you all fail to acknowledge the fact that Pau is now 0-16 without Kobe, yet Kobe coattailed him to b2b rangs. It's funny though - I'll admit. :lol

If it makes you feel better, I don't blame TD for the US men's team winning Bronze in 2004 nor do I blame the Admiral for the '88 gaffe. However, I reserve the right to clown them for having the dubious distinction of being the only HOFers, who played in the NBA, and have Bronze Medals in the modern era. These are both rightfully perceived as shitstains. :lol

I've already told you my thoughts on the 2013 Lakers being the "biggest failure in NBA history". Quick recap: If the Lakers were healthy all year and into the playoffs, yet still got Skunked in the 1st round, I'd agree with your take 100%. Real talk. But it didn't happen that way. So we'll have to agree to disagree. Deal? :toast

Personally, I've never blamed Kobe for the failures during the Smush-era. And you won't find an indication of me saying such, either. I do disagree with the notion that he didn't "get enough help" during the '06 series with the Suns, since Smush, Kwame, and Luke surprisingly played well, and I do think he deserves criticism for his game 7 stunt, but other than that, I don't blame Kobe for missing the playoffs or losing in '07.

And I do think the 2012-13 Lakers are the biggest failure in NBA history, but more on the management and coaching side than the players on the court. The reason half your roster was injured is because of the stupid decisions the FO made. They put together an older roster, they didn't develop any young players, never signed a legit backup for Kobe, fired Mike Brown after 4 games (whose slow paced Princeton offense would've been much more compatible with the team's build) and then bring in slave driver Mike D'Antoni, who runs a high tempo system. Then no one steps up and reigns in Kobe minutes when it's obvious he's an injury waiting to happen. No surprise the Lakers roster resembled a triage unit at the end of the season.

It's why Laker Nation wants the heads of Jim Buss and Mike D'Antoni on a plate (Mitch has evaded criticism for some reason). They failed on a scale never before seen before in the league. Not even Isiah Thomas screwed up this badly.

And they damn shouldn't have hired MDA. So if this is the argument, I guess I have to "own" this one. Unfortunately. SMH

The jury is still out on the bolded. Nothing a quick search can't resolve...brb. :downspin:

That was the year Kobe quit because of his rape allegations and when all the heartless faggots decided they were too afraid to play.

There's no shame in winning a medal in the Olympics. The shame is in quitting and raping. That's shameful.

Are you familiar with Colorado (alleged) rape laws? Kobe was facing a loooooooong ride in the big house. I think that is >>> important than playing in the Olympics. Besides, he led the team to Gold in 2008 and 2012. It doesn't erase the international embarrassment Duncan caused in 2004, but it helps. :elephant

Conley's a rising star, tbh.... -10 more points for det turrible deflection attempt, son :lol

Let's examine that, shall we? Comparison: regular season stats (bigger sample size and more of an indicator of his true stats) vs. post season vs. "NBA All Defense 1st team CP3". On the left side - vs. CP3 in the playoffs. Right side - regular season.

17.3ppg - 14.6ppg. He raised his scoring average when he saw NBA All Defense 1st team CP3. :lol
8.3 apg - 6.1 apg. ^ :lol
1.2 spg - 2.2 spg. He slacking here.

So there you have it folks. My theory that CP3 does not defend, but only goes for steals, is bulletproof. When the Clipps needed him to lock down Conley, he couldn't do it. Maybe, just maybe he's not as great a defender as his selection to the all defensive 1st team suggests? :lol

Oh, and -20 points for Clipper Nation for his bogus attempt at :downspin: the fact that CP3 couldn't guard Conley - who even surpassed his career averages vs. CP3 the doberman defender. :lol

Except Memphis had Rudy Gay hogging the ball for a sizable chunk of the year, with a team-high 26% usage rate.... I'm sure Conley's stats would have been higher without that chucker dominating the ball, tbh....
