-just heard about Ricky Rubio's season ending injury with the torn ACL in left knee. -really sucks for the T-Wolves.

Get well soon Ricky!


Report: Ricky Rubio Done For Season « NBA.com | Hang Time Blog

Person familiar with situation to AP: Timberwolves rookie sensation Ricky Rubio out for season - News1130

bballguy 03-10-2012 04:25 PM

I think T-Wolves will continue to have success even without him...Though Rubio has been good this season, despite the poor fg%, I credit that team's success to coach Rick Adelman. He's one of the most underrated coaches in the league and continues to surprise people with very mediocre teams. I actually predicted that the Wolves make the playoffs this season when I heard Adelman was coaching. I expect Ridnour to step in and help the wolves continue to win games.

In other news, Raptors are down 45-19 to the Pistons with 8 minutes left in the 2nd quarter...

at least bargnani is back. hopefully he can continue to play well like he did before he went down

G-spec 03-10-2012 07:07 PM

fck and I thought he got super high when he blew out that cupcake candle from the rim in the dunk comp few years back, on this dunk he got easily a few inches higher, half his face is above the rim....

I think this is only the second in game windmill alley oop ever done, possibly the first cuz I'm pretty sure I remember Vince doing one on fastbreak off a T mac lob...
I also remember getting benched for a wide open fastbreak dunk back in high school, and we were up by 20... this fuckin guy is doing this in a NBA game few point differential on a team that desperately needs wins, lol, ballsy indeed

i remember he did that and didn't get a very high score because no one saw that there was a candle there and that he got high enough & blew it out

They were all equally stupid.

Wilson Chandler's agent sent out an ominous tweet late Saturday night, saying "Finally made it to Denver...4 Seasons in our future," while including Chandler's Twitter handle and a picture of them traveling in the back of a car.....Either they're really fired up about the '4 Seasons' or they're alluding to Chandler's potential contract.

That last defensive possession by LA was freaking money. Too bad Gasol won't get credit for the screen that let Bryant have a little room for the shot and the great awareness of him knowing Allen was gonna receive the ball and launch the 3.

Sir_Loin 03-11-2012 02:40 PM

Bynum was huge today for the Lakers hitting that baby hook to put the Lakers up by 3. Rondo shoots better with one eye lol.

looks like Kobe has been reading your post on Revscene. He made a pass to Bynum

YAY!!!! and they win against a solid team....It seems like Kobe is trying to take advantage of those weaker teams and trying to put up another 81 point game or something...

Many of us here, including myself, were wrong about Anthony's ability to co-exist with Lin. Melo thinks he's the team leader, and pulled that act last year when he arrived and started preaching that everybody needed to play defense, but the problem is that his body of work is the play of a me-first loser. Adding J.R. Smith and Baron Davis to the mix just puts fuel on this fire. The team awkwardly defers to Anthony on offense, and suffers greatly due to his defense.

Dubs looking to make a run for Bogut. Trade would probably involve Udoh, Dorell Wright, Biedrens, and Kwame...Dubs would have to take back S-Jax ugly contract though...

411ken 03-12-2012 11:01 AM

George Karl had to build a system around Carmelo...Carmelo is an isolation player...How can you expect a guy to be able to get get the ball, wait for isolation, jab step 30 times before finally making a move, and put up a shot all in a time span of 7 seconds?? You can't. Carmelo cannot play in the 7 seconds or less system. He also probably doesn't move very well without the ball.
