Official NBA 2012-2013 Season Thread

again, numbers don't tell the whole story. and forgive me for speaking generally in the hypothetical in this situation.

yes, russy assists KD more than anyone assists anyone else in the NBA. assisting someone =/= creating a basket opportunity for that player. if KD comes off a screen, catches, shoots, scores. russy gets the assist. but did russ really do anything there? now if it's a penetration and kick out type of situation, and KD hits that look then yeah, russ created a shot.

assisting on a basket =/= creating a shot opportunity for a teammate


reading back on my post it seems i'm attacking russ which in part is true. but i should let you know that personally i'm a westbrook fan. i just could live without the plays that make me feel like this

and this

how does this move make you feel 

I know if the Kings brought back Rick Adelman I'd be jumping up and down for joy

Grizz need someone (not Rudy Gay) on the wing who can shoot the damn ball. Their collection of wings is gross.

Conley is a pretty damn good PG now. Gasol is very good as well, but it's just not enough.

I'll either go after Kevin Martin this offseason or find a way to get Eric Gordon (but he may be too risky).

And erupt, I'm not saying make Conley your best player. Marc is our best player and he's a top 11-15 player at that. His rebounding numbers are more so of having Zach around than him just being lazy or something. Hence, why we averaged 9 a game last season when Zach was out. The thing with Marc is, we rely on him for just about everything. He's literally our MVP. He shares the playmaking duties with Conley, he's the post scorer, high post man, anchors the defense, etc. You can only ask so much out of him at his size

Memphis still has a good foundation with Conley, Marc and a re-signed TA. Those guys know how to win and have very great skillsets.The key is finding that 3rd guy that can mesh perfectly with Conley and Marc.

Damn MJ don't play!!!!! Seriously though, dude did a great job to win 21 games with essentially the same roster as last year's TERRIBLE roster. WTF did Mike expect dude to do with that talent in his first year?

thus far, MJ has been a cheap ***/Maloof-esque owner....... I can't wait to see who the next coach they hire is gonna be 

 

[japanair21]

Huh... Mike Brown. I'm stumped.

 

[drewsone]

Phil Jackson.

 

[Bert.]

Huh... Mike Brown. I'm stumped.

Cavs in the playoffs next year, book it


DEAD SRS

Now that i could see 

 

[jinkazama]

Phil Jackson.

No way...Phil turned down the cavs to go to Charlotte...LOL.

Like somebody else said MJ will probably foolishly bring in Doug Collins...just like he did in Washington. If he was smart MJ would have Nate McMillan on the phone.

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Huh... Mike Brown. I'm stumped.

Cavs in the playoffs next year, book it


DEAD SRS

Considering how the bucks made it with 37 wins this season its possible

 

[iamjusayn]

^That or bring Bernie back but the issue is good coaches wanting to go there n gv their all as well as players.

 

[scotthallwithapick]

Huh... Mike Brown. I'm stumped.

Cavs in the playoffs next year, book it


DEAD SRS

If they get Bynum

 

[rrlegend]

teams are going to willing put up money for bynum ?

 

[big j 33]

He's going to be great those first 32 games until he gets hurt.

 

[scotthallwithapick]

He's going to be great those first 32 games until he gets hurt.

Then Kyrie wins the other 8 for the 7th seed

 

[do work son]

cavs making the playoffs isn't a bold prediction

the bottom of the east sucks, as stated above, bucks made it in with 37 wins

 

[shoeking2101]

So KD is tired of being 2nd huh?

 

[grandtheftbike]

wizards will make the playoffs before the cavs

 

[ween h4ed]

I guess it doesn't help that he ended up 2nd in scoring ppg this year too

 

[jumpman91023]

wizards will make the playoffs before the cavs

They will.

 

[noblekane]

messed up

 

[noblekane]

WOW lmao. The Cavs really did rehire Mike Brown.

YES!!! This means the lakers dont have to pay him no more right?
