Look at Har, feelin' his own oats now that he's safe Vs. the Pacers. Laughin' to beat the band.
Big shot. Loses four out of his last five and he's makin' fun of others.
Most overrated team in the NBA, as expected..

They'd still the Celtics in the ass, home or away. Teamwork and ball movement is the key against that team. You need good leadership for that. Deron Williams and Boobie Gibson provide the goods better than some.
What happened to "it's only the first game of the season"?
lol Al Jefferson
lol 7-0 preseason
It is just the first game of the season, true, I don't like to overreact, but I've been saying this for the entire off-season..
Al Jefferson is overrated, and he plays a completely different style than Boozer..Utah is going to have to heavily adjust their system to fit his game, which is going to take a long time..he doesn't have Boozer's jump shot and he doesn't have his overall p&r ability..
Also, as bad as Boozer is defensively, Jefferson is even worse..
They lost Kyle Korver's shooting and they lost Wes Matthew's game on both ends..they replaced them with Raja Bell, well past his prime..
Where's purch when ya need him.
Don't laugh. He's killing my fantasy team. TD had to rescue me tonight instead of being some heavy gravy.
no so far that would be the heat
One lost to the Conference Champions, the other lost to the Denver Nuggets. Don't get me wrong, I love the Nuggets, but they have a star player about to leave them and that's bad for chemistry. Chauncey is getting up there, Chris Andersen didn't play, and they got blown out of the building.
Made those former Pistons feel like they were disrespected again.
Utah took some losses but i bet they are still tough at home as they always are. I just hope they dont get the 8, or 4 or 5 seeds in the West. Although i know we would tp that ass, I am TIRED of seeing Utah every playoffs ...another OKC series or the spurs or Mavs would be much more fun. Playing Rox would be cool too ...
Utah is going to be competing for the 7th-8th seed..I'm saying they're overrated, because a lot of people have been picking them as a top 5 team in the West, and a lot of people have picked them as a sleeper..
The only thing really overrated about Utah is Jefferson. It makes sense when most people never watched him play at Minnesota. With more national TV coverage the hype will finally shut the up.
The west will be interesting if Portland and houston are healthy I doubt uth sniffs HCA advantage (top 4 or 5 seed) ...but since those teams are annually and consistently hurt, i can see why some thought Utah was top 4 material.
I think the other x-factor in the West is Denver. I have been saying this all off-season. If utah is overrated ...then Denver is underrated. yes, they will flame out come playoffs and yes, if melo is dealt who knows how what they will look like then? But Nugg fan is right, Afflalo is in contract year, and will be improved. So is Melo and Smith too (IIRC) so expect big years from those cats. Melo aint winning either way so he could stay and leave as a FA ...
And Lawson is the perfect backup for that team and they have a great Homecourt advantage ...
Most people that have been picking against Denver, myself included, are pretty much entirely basing it on the belief that Anthony will eventually by dealt..if he's still on the team and is giving it a 100%, they will definitely make the playoffs..improved players + a good addition to the bench in Al Harrington..
If he stays or is dealt later in the year ... I think they not only will make the playoffs but will at least get the 5th seed ...
im curious to how Denver handles this. But Denver probably wont implode until late or the playoffs ...
I can't believe those "analysts" claimed AL Jefferson would fit in like a glove and would be the new Mailman
idiots, Boozer fit the Jazz a lot more like Malone than Al Jefferson. Jefferson needs the ball 24/7 to make an impact. Boozer/Malone only needed a few secods under the basket with the ball, not an eternity. and would get a lot more rebounds on their own.
Utah just losing a road game like they're supposed to
Sloan + EnergySolutions Arena + Classless fans + Spirits of girls raped by Karl Malone + Deron William makes Utah almost unbeatable at homeUtah just losing a road game like they're supposed to
I guess Jefferson's defense is as ty as advertised, since he made Shelden Williams look like a competent NBA player.
I guess people will see soon why the Mavs didnt like much to pair him with Dirk and why they prefered to have two real center and deadline trade possibility.
I'm not one to save a thread for future reference, but this one will be bookmarked.
ing idiots in this thread reacting to one game = priceless.
I guess Miami is trash as well.
It's gonna be like this for every team. As soon as the Lakers lose their first game ..... lol Lakers
I hope they throw a into the Suns tonight that'll make 'em bleed.
