[awwsome]

Cats fighting right now

Kemba is becoming one of my favorite players, been a fan since he was doing this in Connecticut

 

[solarius49]

correction, Derrick Williams is now 0-8
for any Wolves fans, can this kid just not play basketball? What is his problem?

confidence and not knowing where his place is in the offense

0-10 :x

 

[mronegative]

[do be doo]

[awwsome]

Collison been trash the last two games man jesus

 

[pmatic]

The Mavs' decision making and execution the last minute of regulation and overtime thus far has been :x.

 

[solarius49]

This dude Rondo is really shutting B Jennings down. Forced him into 1/8 shooting and 3 TO's

Seems like a regular stat line from Jennings to me.

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

What are some players wearing the USA stuff?

 

[japanair21]

Cut Murphy. He's dog****.

Cant believe we lost that game when we were up four with 20 seconds left

Of course Wince chucks us out of the game.

We were winning early in all these games because we hammered it into our bigs. I can count the numbers of times Kaman and Wright got the ball in the second half on one hand.

He's turned himself into strictly a jump shooter. He got into a habit of hanging out behind the 3-pt line last year and rarely ever tried to assert himself in the offense by taking the ball to the hoop. When he did, you saw how athletic he was and if he honed those skills, he could be a problem.

Well, he never developed that in the off-season. I get the feeling he would humor coaches by working on the block when people were around, but when everyone was gone, would practice shooting. What he is now, is a streaky "shooter" with all the talent in the world to do what he wants with the ball, but has yet to discover how to do so and defaults to shooting. Some nights he's on other nights he's off. Tonight he was off, but it speaks to the larger issue.

But Hood was right. His confidence in knowing he belongs with the big boys is lacking.

lol

 

[mitchellicious]

He averaged 9 ppg that season too. Which isnt a world beater, but definitely isnt terrible.
Drew Gooden averaged 11 ppg and 8.5 rebounds
Big Z averaged 12 ppg, 7.7 rebounds and 1.3 blocks
Larry Hughes averaged 15 ppg, 3.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.3 steals.
So there were still other guys contributing to that team

I'll agree in that system, in that year, in that offense, those players were capable for some unknown reason. Maybe Mike Brown had a Shaman bless the team that season or something.

Doesn't mean that the roster wasn't a big steaming pile of dog doo doo though. I mean, what is Larry Hughes doing now? He can't even star in Nelly videos anymore.

 

[pmatic]

at how loud the crowd got after Biedrins made two free throws.

 

[big j 33]

When Larry Hughes is the 2nd leading scorer, you're not expected to win a game in the Finals. That team was good defensively and a good/great defense + Lebron will win a lot of games in the regular season every single year.

+1

 

[noblekane]

That happens to your frontcourt every night, though. And they are 23.

lol +1

 

[pmatic]

Has their been a cause of death in regards to Gallinari's jump shot?

 

[elpablo21]
