When the Spurs are on, nobody executes on offense better. Really amazing how anyone who goes to that team learns to make the right pass at the right time. I respect the hell out of what Pop does.
 
That ball movement :hat :hat

Had Pants for rookie poster of the year, dude has gifs that you wouldn't even expect people to create.
If you want to see all those gifs an hour before they're posted on NT, just browse the reddit r/nba forum :lol

So Bledsoe had part of his meniscus removed. Quicker recovery, but is likely going to pile up knee problems for him as his career progresses.

See DWade's knees.

No doubt that Bledsoe will keep developing and be a Star, but he's taking a big risk.

Why do ppl choose to go that route? It doesnt make sense. Why risk further damage down the road just to come back faster?



Brandon Roy is the prime example :{

at Bledsoe
 
Thats a very risky move by EB.

Hopefully it pans out, but it's not like the Suns are going anywhere. yeah yeah I know they're off to a nice start but my god a title won't happen unless teams die.

UPDATED 10:15 am: This makes more sense.

According to the Arizona Republic on Monday Bledsoe had a small piece of his meniscus removed, which is a much less serious surgery than had been suggested previously. Removal of the meniscus in a player this young would be unusual, but if is is an arthosopic surgery they may have needed to take off part of it. That would leave a lot of cushioning that will allow a (hopefully) long career.

Bottom line in the short term expect Bledsoe back sometime after the All-Star break.
 
Even part of it is risky.

Had it been full, he'd be an idiot. He's just taking a weird risk right now.

Sure he has a lot of the meniscus left, but the human body doesn't have a set way for degrading.

The Suns won't win a title this year, they are a "Future Team" he should have sat it out, and just let the knee heal on it's own, which is the smart thing to do.

I'm sure Bledsoe's impending free agency has something to do with coming back quicker.

Whether or not that was the wise decision, we don't know.
 
Who is gonna crack the 50pt mark this season? so far the closest ones....

1. Kevin Love - 45pts
2. Melo- 45pts
3. Steph Curry- 43pts
3. Afflalo- 43pts
3. Paul George- 43 pts

6. CP3- 42pts
6. Kevin Love- 42pts
6. Kevin Durant- 42pts *I think he dropped 48 the other day
 
Eric Beldsoe should've taken the year off if his knee was looking that bad. Removing the meniscus is painful.Direct bone on bone :x

Brandon Jennings

Dirk

Monta

Curry

KD

Those are the five I think that will make 50 pts< first
 
They're making playoffs without him

That's not what he's saying. If the Blazers had a healthy Roy this whole time, they would never have been in position to draft Lillard in the first place because they wouldn't have been a lottery team. If Roy was still around, Lillard more than likely wouldn't be there.

This. :lol

I think Durant will hit the 50 point mark before Westbrook comes back. Harden and Melo are my other two candidates.
 
Too bad that probably would have never happened. A healthy Roy would've meant playoffs for Portland.

Imagine a starting five of a healthy Roy, Mathews, Batum, LMA, and a healthy Oden with Mo Williams as a sixth man.
