Tonight's games thread..

[Malik Hairston]

These 7PM games are awful:lol..

Bucks and Hornets is some ugly-ass basketball..

Hibbert looks terrible on defense, which was all he had left:lol..

[Xylus]

Hibbert's decline is one of the craziest things I've ever seen in the NBA.

[Spur-Addict]

Nene is already missing games?..damn, those Brazilians are brittle, tbh:lol..

I thought it was a suspension. I'm thinking about swapping Steven Adams for him anyways because of his inability to stay healthy :lol.

They'll likely have somewhat similar numbers. Although Adams FT% is trash, although Nene's FT numbers aren't consistent either. I'm making the swap, fuck it.

[RD2191]

Lol terrible

[RD2191]

East ball is so shitty.

[Malik Hairston]

Right, I forgot about Nene's suspension..

I bet on the Wizards at +4.5, but I forgot they were missing Beal and Nene..I just hedged the bet with Miami -4.5, I'm not relying on either of these mediocre teams:lol..

[Malik Hairston]

Would be very surprised if Brooklyn makes the playoffs, tbh..

[RD2191]

Gasol invisible out there.

Has Vince checked in yet?..

[Dex]

Bulls look like the same old team, even with Rose and Gasol.

Gonna grind their way to 48 wins in the East then get outed in the 2nd round.

[dirk4mvp]

Mark Jackson is already in mid season diarrhea mouth form.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

No. Pondexter and Udrih were the first wings off the bench.

Well yeah; he's not being a timid bitch and waiting behind the 3 point line, waiting for a pass that won't come.

[RD2191]

Not sure if Bulls are good or Knicks just that bad.

[Malik Hairston]

Calderon will help a little since he should fit nicely in the triangle, but the rest of that team is so bad..virtually no talent..

[Malik Hairston]

Alexey Shved looking like he would be the best player on the Lakers' roster, tbh..

[Spur-Addict]

If you had LP last year, you are probably too late to say "fuck... it renewed and I didn't want it... there goes 200 down the fucking drain"

Fortunately I caught it in time. Can't get Spurs games while I am on the road, they are blacked out, so it's useless.

Hibbert, with a supporting cast only the Lakers could love, getting the W with an impressive performance. Despite his flaws, he's one of only a few guys I've actually seen get the most out of himself (even with his up's and down's) for someone whom I thought had high bust potential. I saw the talent when he entered but he also had a low floor too.

[lefty]

Lol the Hawks suck

That's what happens when you work with Tim Duncan, tbh..

Making players from other teams' better, not just his own:lol..

[DPG21920]

If Valanciunas can take a legit next step and if Ross can become more consistent from 3, TOR has legit potential to reach the ECF.

[lefty]

Lol that new seating space for Drake is gay

[DPG21920]

Bosh showing he's still a very, very good player. It's amazing how little credit he got for MIA success. :lol Amare > Bosh

[Clipper Nation]

Drake is gay
Could have just left it at that :lol

[benstanfield]

Hibbert with a pretty impressive line against Nerlens Noel and the other fellas

Can't wait to watch the Kobe and Lin show, tbh..

[D-Wade]

Bosh showing he's still a very, very good player. It's amazing how little credit he got for MIA success. :lol Amare > Bosh

Definitely. But this year he should be the Heat's most consistent player. If he's not, something's wrong.

[Malik Hairston]

:lol Grizzlies getting killed by Anthony fucking Bennett..

One thing I didn't consider when Lebron left: It's really cool to see Heat being Wade's team again with Bosh as a great 1b. If Wade is healthy, there aren't many more players that I enjoy watching as the main dude in the NBA tbh..That's just me tho.

[Raven]

Playing gooden 30min in 2014 and not tanking :lol

[D-Wade]

Wade hasn't had the room to stat pad in the last 4 years. :lol

Decent win but Wiz still need to get fully healthy.

[spurraider21]

Bosh showing he's still a very, very good player. It's amazing how little credit he got for MIA success. :lol Amare > Bosh
yep. looks like Toronto Bosh + a 3 point shot. deadly

[ElNono]

time for the LA trainwreck and the new face warriers

[Splits]

MVPau 21 & 11

He led a depleted Laker squad to 27 wins by himself last year.

How many wins will Kirbs lead basically the same squad this year?

[DPG21920]

Wade hasn't had the room to stat pad in the last 4 years. :lol

Decent win but Wiz still need to get fully healthy.

Dude, that was a big win...I don't care if Beal is out, WAS is clearly one of the better teams in the East with a really tough cover in Wall. Norris showed well (which is key for the Heat this year), Wade looked good in the guts of the game (scoring, hitting the 3, and just making plays) and Bosh looked every bit the max player he was paid to be.

Although he's not great, McRoberts should help too.

:lol 15 shots in 16 minutes, and doing absolutely nothing in other areas of the game.

Guess this was the plan, though. Stealth tank by letting Kirby chuck his way to 20 or more points. Keeps the season ticket holders and Time Warner happy, and the Lakers get a shot at the number one pick.

[midnightpulp]

How does a team only have three 3 point attempts in this era of the NBA? I know Byron hates the 3, but you can't fuckin' win anything in today's game without spacing.

And yeah, I know the Lakers are tanking, but what happens in a couple (or more) years when they try to start competing? Is Byron just a shitty placeholder coach until someone else comes along? Because we all know his philosophy is more outdated than disco.

And Kobe is deluded enough to think he had a "great game."

[Raven]

Top 5 pick on the way

i guess so, but aren't you worried about the talent level after a superloaded draft?

[TDMVPDPOY]

Westbrook has to play smart while KD is out. His energy is critical, but he can't foul too much

is it possible westbrick>durant?

who knows who is hold who back on that team..

both are the same type scoring first mentality players who play no defense

[Splits]

Top 5 pick on the way

Even with the overall #1 pick, next year's squad is still a bottom of the barrel lottery team sans some miracle FA acquisition next summer. Which means the 2016 pick, which is only top-3 protected, goes to the Suns.

[Robz4000]

I'll admit, watching the Westchimp show is pretty entertaining :lol

[ElNono]

can't believe Scott Brooks is still running a simple curl for an offensive play... when you have a shooter like Durant, ok... but now?

[DPG21920]

Westbrook has been ridiculously good for a while now. On ST, it's popular to focus on just a players negatives (his shot selection, IQ, ect..) but it doesn't make them scrubs when their positives are really good. The fit is odd sometimes with WB and KD, but they are sick players and OKC is damn good.

[midnightpulp]

You can tell Kobe is content because he got his numbers.

[100%duncan]

Chimp is a beast

He dramatically improved his defense in the past couple of seasons... he would routinely get burned on that end, but not anymore now.

[Splits]

Why the fuck is Nick Collison jacking threes from the elbow? :lol Scotty

[BatManu20]

Damn Robert Horry has packed on a few tbh

[DPG21920]

Man, when Lillard isn't shooting well, he really struggles to contribute. With that many shooters, how can you at least not get assists? They are running at whomever is Lillard is guarding - it's tough to hide him on that end.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Kings shooting 29.6% from the field.

Cousins: 2-11, 16pts
Gay: 5-15, 14pts
Collison: 4-12, 11 pts
Stauskas: 3-9, 9pts

Outside of Carl Landry's 3-5, and Omri Casspi's 1-1, no other Kings player is shooting over 40% from the field.

[Splits]

:lol Nick Collison still jacking 3s
:lol 0-4 on the night
:lol 5-38 for 13% in his career
:lol Scott Brooks

[Raven]

routinely is a big word, the thing is he was commonly the victim of smartly called plays and he'd just look like a fool most of the time, but it's not like he was getting burnt or something.. and :lol @ cryhavoc calling parker a better defender than westchimp

[Venti Quattro]

Lillard has 3 points and 4 personal fouls. But at least he only has 1 turnover

[manufan10]

:lol Nick Collison still jacking 3s
:lol 0-4 on the night
:lol 5-38 for 13% in his career
:lol Scott Brooks

I was just thinking that I don't ever recall Nick Collison being a 3 point shooter, and wondering why he keeps jacking them up.

[lefty]

Lillard is back lol

[ElNono]

Tony used to destroy him. That was when they decided to put Sefolosha on him. Hasn't happened in a while.

[DPG21920]

This is an embarrassing performance for Lillard against a West Playoff team/PG. Lillard has talent obviously, but he is showing the massive gap between him and true impact playoff level players. When Westbrook has those bad shooting nights, he was at least going all out on defense, pulling down 8 rebounds and had 9-10 assists.

Lillard, if he's not hitting low percentage shots, stuggles to find other ways to impact the games. He's capable of making huge, difficult shots, but even Curry is better at that then him.

[DPG21920]

:lol I like how they keep talkin about Lillard getting cut from Team USA and how that is motivating him. Looks pretty motivated tonight..Pretty obvious Coach K made the right decision.

[ElNono]

Lillard said coming into the league he was modeling his game after Westbrook... there might be some starstruck moment going on

[DPG21920]

Odd because he's a very different player than WB other than they both take some bad shots (which Lillard can make more of).

Might ask for an autograph after the game.

[ElNono]

I agree, the athleticism isn't quite there, IMO, and Lillard has a long way to go on the defensive end.

[Holden_Caulfield]

chuckbrook in progress :lol

Aren't they like a year apart? Westbrook is an anomaly due to his freakish athleticism. It's like a player modeling his game after Lebron. Ain't gonna happen tbh.

[scanry]

BTW i missed his pregame swag.

So, is Godsoe gonna get a game suspension or not? He was yapping at a ref after getting ejected

4 years... Westbrook was drafted in 2008, Lillard in 2012

[DPG21920]

POR's offense is annoying to watch most of the time. Just 3's and iso's and mediocre spacing many times.

[BatManu20]

Unravelling

[DPG21920]

They just say Paul Allen donated 100M to Ebola? How they hell do you have so much money where you can donate 100M :lol

[BatManu20]

Game over.

[ElNono]

bang bang game over

[100%duncan]

Well portland did what they were supposed to do

[BatManu20]

Westbrook looks like he's going to kill somebody at all times tbh.

[spurraider21]

:lol perkins scowling from the bench

[BanditHiro]

you think KD is rushed back and he re-injures his foot?

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Stats for today:

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: 3-19 from the field, 1-8 from 3, 7pts, 7rebs, 3ast.

Sacramento Kings: 30.8% from the field (24-78), 16.7% from 3(3-18), 13 assist, 27 turnovers. Minus Darren Collison, the Kings had 5 assist and 26 turnovers

[Infinite_limit]

Page 1 & 2 were entertaining

[Xylus]

Eric Bledsoe: 16 pts, 9 ast, 6 rebs, 26 min, 5-7 FG, 3-4 3FG, 1 turnover
Goran Dragic: 18 pts, 2 ast, 5 rebs, 26 min, 6-12 FG, 0-2 3FG, 1 turnover
Isaiah Thomas: 23 pts, 3 ast, 1 reb, 20 min, 9-11 FG, 5-7 3FG, 2 turnovers


I know we played the worst team in the conference tonight, but god damn. GIMME SOME MORE.
