Of course Blake is a creationist Christian, he's from Oklahoma. Y'all know we are the only arena in all of pro sports (New Orleans used to to but they only did it 1 yr) who does a coerced prayer before every game? **** is so annoying

what does this mean

After they sing the Star Spangled Banner, they introduce a Pastor from somewhere in the community who comes to center court and leads the entire arena in prayer. They always try to defend it as being a "non denominational, general, no we aren't only talking about long haired blue eyed white Jesus," prayer, but it's always a Baptist pastor from the local community, not like they have tons of Rabbi's (they did once recently) or other non Christian religions represented and literally once a dude did open a Bible and read a passage, every once in a while someone says "Jesus" although they're again instructed not to.

It's called religious coercion and besides being inconsiderate since obviously not everyone is the same religion, is technically illegal. Bible Belt gon' Bible Belt though

Why is Joe Johnson throwing an alley-oop to Marcus Thornton like he is Miles Plumlee?

Why is Kevin Garnett such a horrible and useless player?

Put Plumlee back in.

These are the Nets that a lot of you are saying are going to do something?

So slow and mediocre all around

This will be a great example of why regular season series don't mean much though

Julius F. Wrek

His tournament performance and finish was very Melo-esque.

I am giving them the benefit of the doubt that the answer is no, but I hesitate to do so. Nets fans better hope the answer is no but tbh I'm not so sure.

They want that 6 seed so they don't have to play the Bulls

Would be a good idea but it's interesting how they would leave Williams in. Judging by how he looks maybe this is on purpose.

Yup. 5 years of Paul pierce and KG on the same team didn't show you that their teams don't give a damn about regular season?

It's going to be a rude awakening for you when they actually do try and you realize this isn't 5 years ago when they're embarrassed out of the playoffs

I think they can take indy to 7 & possibly win in the 2nd round

 

[shoeking2101]

Shumpert got upppp on that wow :x

I would disagree /James Harden dressing up like Anthony Davis

But they sure do know how to make games ugly. That's a recipe to stay in games. See Indy. And Indy looks like dog crap as well so it's like a literal crap shoot.

knicks front office must be jumping for joy with shumpert's trade stock rising with this televised game.

 

[100027]

carmelo won the national championship, though.

True. I was drawing the comparison to Melo's NBA playoff performances, but clearly that confuses the connection.

Crazy to think in retrospect that that would be his best ever moment as a basketball player.

They wouldve been in the playoffs if they wouldve pulled the trigger for dion
