2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

Man, the post a few pages back about lillard being equivalent to Steve Franchise is scary. I pray that he has a higher ceiling than that. I'm the biggest blazer fan there is, and have been following Lillard pretty heavily since we drafted him but I gotta say, I've slowly lost respect for him as a person over the off-season. On the court, he's fine by me. Bad defense, but great offensively, as well as a solid distributor and all around floor general.

But following him on instagram was probably the worst thing I could do. This fool wears other teams snapbacks, is constantly putting out "freestyle raps", and posts crap about all the "haters" out there on the daily. I can't stand this type of immaturity, and I know he's very young, but I hope he grows outta this phase real quick. Time to start acting more like Kobe off the court (minus the colorado thing) and less like J.R. Smith.

The leader of a franchise need to be better than that.

Wearing other teams' hats, freestyling, and posting things about "haters?" Uhh, doesn't sound like the end of the world to me. Sounds like what most 23-year-olds do on social media. Half of NT posts inane stuff about "haters" too.

Dame also used twitter for this at one point.

Dame from Oakland man, they always produce great PG's who do questionable **** off the court, let him be great.

why u put freestyle raps in quotes

 

[Jumanji]

CliffordSmith is the first on my block list

Ready for this warriors and clippers game... Wish Barnes was playing though

 

[bhzmafia14]

Is it just me or I think Cousins will be the best center in the league by year end? Yes, better than Dwight Howard and Marc Gasol. I think the only thing that's going to keep that from happening is the team he plays on and possibly his attitude.

 

[lawdog1]

He's going to do the same thing to the Clippers and especially Griffin, win or lose. It's going to be, "I love Doc, but..."

 

[ohmygosher]

CliffordSmith.

I see you pleighboi.

he always does this to make his opinions sound unbiased, talking about "i love ____, but.." when he has never said anything good about the person in his life

and he hates the Grizz now since they got rid of his boy Hollins.

i wouldn't put it past him. he has loads of talent. his only real issues have been between the ears.

Definitely. Him and Drummond are the future of the league when it comes to bigs.

On deadline day, I’m told the Kings have informed Jimmer Fredette of their decision not to pick up his 14-15 team option ($3.1 mil)
— Sam Amick (@sam_amick) October 31, 2013

this is sort of expected, but still bums me out

bust

been saying this but kings fans are the only ones hyping him up to be a special player.

ill be shocked if someone signs him

 

[calibeebee]

and ya'll know damb well that niketalk would shut down if you saw Kobe rocking a Miami Heat snapback so don't even front likes it's all gravy

Shocked? Fool they signed 38 year old T-Mac just to be able to look at the opponents playbook from the opposite side of the court; so of course he's going to get signed.

Fixed

He's not the defender either of them are, he still is pretty horrid at defending the pick and roll. Offensively he has them both beat and he's also still young as hell, hopefully the new FO can put the right pieces around him because he is a franchise talent

how is he not a bust? SRS

Kings should've never drafted him to begin with, he don't even play man. Wait until he has a chance to showcase his skills before we label him a bust.
