Yea Lakers bench the only guy worth mentioning is Jordan Hill, I don't know why they got rid of Barnes, they really REALLY needed someone to come out defend and just fuck with people alongside Artest. That combination alone is enough intimidation and defense to hold off most other teams better perimeter schemes.

Pistons got LUUUUUCKY from what it looks like with Andre Drummond, he is friggin delivering numbers so good right now, if he keeps these numbers up, basically he's a lock for rookie of the year no fckin joke. That team needs good news as it's been a shithole for quite a while now, and the city itself is on it's last legs, they need a decent team to cheer for, Red Wings and Lions ain't been cuttin it lol

Howard debut tonight :fullofwin:

Isn't Anthony Davis supposed to be good? :p

yeah, dont know why they got rid of Barnes, but he wasnt playing a lot the last half of the season though. Hopefully they didnt resign him because they want to develop ebanks, in which i dont mind.

I think Hill is injured :( so that second unit is going to be iffy.

I do remember Barnes being injured for most of the second half of the season though...

as far as the rookie of the year stuff, yea everyone automatically assumed it'll be Davis, but it's gonna be a race between Davis, Lillard and now seemingly Drummond.....
if Drummond keeps up his play like this, like I said he's a lock...
dude is not just pickin up, but he's beasting double doubles every night.....

this is a guy who they said was too raw, too young and too immature to make any immediate impact....


I was expecting Kansas' Thomas Robinson to actually be the most NBA ready out of all the rookie big men... thought Davis would be getting bounced around like the twig he is for a year or two at least

Harrison Barnes is the most solid all around rookie in my opinion, I wont lie, lol I hate a lil bit on Anthony Davis

ooooooh gotdang, dat PUTBACK over Dwight by the rookie I mentioned Robinson, was ridiculous, extremely rare that Howard gets posterized, but cut him some slack, he couldn't walk straight just the other week.


just took a vid of it

i know they're still gonna suck but raptors are looking to looking to make the playoffs. bargnani is NOT playing center finally and they got the lithuanian kid valanciunas who would've gone #2 in this years draft. jury is out if landry fields or kyle lowry will significantly improve the team.

kyle lowry should improve the team
landry can do a bit of everything and plays well without the ball

they'll improve the team but they ain't gonna save it. hopefully bargnani can play like he did last year before he fell injury to a paper cut or whatever it was. i'll be rooting for the raptors too but my hopes of having the heat being stopped lie with the lakers.

to follow up in the kobe's hate rant...i thought mihm was decent when he was starting in LA. didn't he average 10-10 until he was injured and fell off the face of the planet?

big news on habachi

JEFFFF GREEN MOTHER FUCKER




Gonna be a good year for Celtics!

^ He's got extremely fresh legs, did absolutely no physical activity for a whole year leading up this season because of his heart condition, doctors told him not to go over a certain heart rate for almost the whole year, meaning no running and jumping.... so yea his legs are fresh right now, andexpect him to be jumping around for at least first half of the season...

I'm very happy for him, heart conditions are no joke... I was very pissed off when Thunder let him go they all had that group, Durant, West, Harden & Green they were all very good friends and a lot of people were upset when he got let go.

what's up with nba.com, i cant get seem to go to any pages, keeps redirecting me to the "canada series" page, i dont care bout no shitty canada series take me to the homepage dam it

saw this on nba tv, loved it. hope they do more of these type of shows.

^ the only thing NBA tv is good for, they suck at everything else, can't show games live, put together highlights of games and show them a week after...etc

Yea the NBA site is fcked lately I don't even go on it except when I'm on NBA store.com

game was a blowout last night but hella fun to watch, Deandre is lookin real good in the preseason, I hope this is his year..... he's left handed btw

yep, hes developing a pretty consistent post game and his footwork has improved a heap. he needs to improve that free throw though now that he has an offensive game he will be at the line much more.

I was pretty shocked when the Raptors skipped Drummond to choose Terrence Ross ... total mindfuck right there ... look at Drummond now ... oh Toronto ...

^ lol @ Richard Jefferson as a natural basketball instinct dashing towards Blake to defend, you can definitely see he's the only GS Vet on the floor... but that was until common sense prevailed... soon as he realized who it was, he like, think I'll step aside :heckno:
