Official NBA 2012-2013 Season Thread

The kid is 20 years old and putting up All-Star numbers. Yeah, he's really good.

So was Brandon Jennings

Brandon has never averaged 20, never shot above 42% from the field & has never shot 40% from deep.

Kyrie was crazy today. Took over the game in the 4th qtr.
However, as good as Kyrie's been playing, I wanna see his assist number go up. I know there aren't that many options, but a lot of times Cavs game plan in give Kyrie the ball and let him create for himself with 7 sec left.

He's the #1 (or #3, i forget) iso scorer in the league according to synergy. He's a scoring PG & he does it well.

first thing

I know Kyrie is the flavor of the month on NT, but the disrespect BJ gets is crazy. I guess people are still bitter about him hanging 55 on the Warriors as a rookie

I would take BJ on the Pacers any day



second thing

This is definitely a misnomer about Kyrie not assisting the basketball, he averages 5.7 assists for the year, and 5.5 for his career. Neither number is stellar, but its not horrible either.

 

[flyerthandelta]

BJ cookinnnn.....eh was rondo sticking Kyrie the whole gm son dropped 40

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

Who gives a flying **** about someone dropping 55 on the Warriors? Lol

 

[shoeking2101]

CP hates playing against thunder. He said something about it the first time they played this year when he went 2/14 with like Thabo guarding him or something. Plus he played last night and looked just fine.

One Conclusion...

CP Hiding






















































Before I rustle any Jimmies, I'm kidding

It's disrespect saying that Jennings is an inferior offensive player to a guy who's outperforming him in almost every major offensive category?

 

[flyerthandelta]

Does Kyrie make the AllStar since the fans vote....or the coaches pick the reserves

I'm sure all these non-Warriors fans are bitter about Jennings hanging 55 on the Warriors.

And Kyrie is not the flavor of the month. He's gonna be an elite player in this league for the next decade-plus.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Give kyrie two big men with 40 inch verts and I think he gives you at least 8 dimes. cp3 almost always has shooters/leapers on his squad

CP Hiding

Did you watch the game yesterday? CP looked far from fine, especially after he bumped knees with J-Jack. He wasn't even 50% toward the end of that game. He should be sitting tonight. He may hate playing the Thunder, but he's not hiding.

In other news Rose will return feb 19th vs Hornets

Jennings is terrible, Jennings couldnt lick the bottom of Kyries nikes.

how about this

the year before Jennings was drafted, the Bucks had a record of 34-48 (last in the division, 12th in the conference)

The year Jennings was drafted, the Bucks had a record of 46-36 (second in the division behind Lebrons Cavs, and 6th in the conference


how much has Kyrie improved the record of the Cavs?

in 2010-2011 the year before he was drafted, 19-61 (last in the division)

The year he was drafted, 21-45 (still last in the division)

I dont want to turn this into Kyrie vs BJ, bc thats really not my intention, but to call Jennings "terrible" lets me know that people dont really watch the games. These are probably the same guys who said Paul George sucked before they watched a Pacer game this season

 

[atransta]

damn I wanted CP3 to play tonight. Russ vs Bledsoe should be entertaining though.

everyone is terrible to you.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

russ is gonna roast bledsoe

 

[Peep Game]

This Bucks/Sixers game feels like it's been on for 6 hours

 

[grandtheftbike]

Kyrie is more consistent
Bj is streaky as hell

Gonna take a shot in the dark & say that Andrew Bogut & John Salmons may have had a little to do w/ that, but I could be wrong.

Andrew Bogut was there the year before too (when they only won 34 games), so yeah you're probably wrong.

 

[JD617]

Bogut missed 46 games the year before Jennings got there. 

 

[solarius49]

Bogut missed 46 games the year before Jennings got there. 

he played 77 games the year before they and they won 26 games

66 games the year before that when they won 28 games

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

Andrew Bogut was there the year before too (when they only won 34 games), so yeah you're probably wrong.

Nah, not really. Bogut alone led them to 34 but adding BJ to begin the year & Salmons @ the end helped them over the last 3rd of the season. After he got traded there they went on a crazy tear to finish the season. Same exact thing he did w/ Chicago the year before. But being that these facts aren't in line w/ your opinion you probably conveniently ignored it. No worries.
