[do work son]

i have no idea who's family it was. he came over to our tunnel side and was talking with Ariza for a long time, then Ariza pointed out people in the crowd.

Let's take a look at Shaq's per 36 minutes stats in 2000; 29.2 points (63.7 TS%) and 10.3 rebounds.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Oh wait, that's Mo Speights' per 36 stats so far this season.

OKC actually already made the finals and once the Spurs finally die off the Thunder will be favorites every season to represent the west. They should have good odds going forward. If Brooks eventually gets the can their odds rise even more.

Tim Duncan will play until he is at least 50.

You do realize I was being sarcastic right?

 

[antidope]

I was always a Speights guy. Like that guy.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Thought these vids were pretty cool. Kind of funny how pro athletes use NikeID. Like, they can't get someone from Nike to do customs? Especially being a Trail Blazer, gotta think they could cater to him lol

Robin Lopez sharpie-ing his shoes 

Crazy job to have but I think would be pretty cool

 

[addict4sneakers]

Speights is instant offense on both ends of the floor

 

[awwsome]

GSW/MEM WCF incoming.

 

[nick.]

@RaptorsMR: Update on @Raptors DeMar DeRozan. Tests revealed torn left adductor longus tendon. No timetable for return to bball activity. #rtz

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

I thought Warriors weren't contenders?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

East is in shambles b

Wizards have zero excuses not to make a big move right now

They still got the 6th man of the year

 

[T0INE]

GSW/MEM WCF incoming.

Warriors and Grizzlies off to great starts.

Kerr and Joeger flourishing right now.

Still too much season left to pencil those two into the WCF. Wouldn't mind that matchup at all though

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Still say the Spurs are the overall favorites

Still think the Thunder will be in the thick of things even though they might not look the part until the very end of the year

Memphis though, always a threat because of their team D and post presence offensively. Conley has been making the turn even last year to a top flight PG. He also likes to play defense. I have them second.

Golden State, Clippers are my next.

Houston and Portland I hold a bit less highly but they could sway me. If or when Parsons starts showing out I'll elevate Dallas to Warriors/Clippers tier.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Start James Johnson, slide Ross to the 2, and I don't think we will lose that much. Some of Derozan's possessions have to be given to JV.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I actually don't think the Raps take a major step back either. Seem to be locked in to their system and the other east contenders have their own issues. Lowry bout to feast even more now.

Could be a great thing for Jonas

 

[atransta]

I believe OKC will still make the WCF's but I don't want to play the Grizz in the 1st round again

You'll probably have to play either Memphis or SA, which sucks. Regardless, most likely every round in the west will suck anyway

 

[dman14]

^if they make theplayoffs, that means they are playing red hot ball. wouldnt surprise me at all if they do and knock off whoever they play.
they would be playing near .700 ball from here on out
whether you play mem/sa in the first rd doesnt matter. eventually have to meet up and defeat these teams

tough break for the raps, but they play in a weak east. they will be fine

That's very true

. Stupid stupid injuries

Damn, .700 ball? They only like 5 games out right now, is .700 really correct?

Like A-Friend posted, their schedule coming up looks really favorable. I don't see why they couldn't catch the 8th seed even by the end of that stretch. Which is exactly when KD will probably return.
