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

Rose or no Rose. Bulls are a good team without him. Add Melo to the mix without Rose. and they are a much better team.

Rose will be back, who knows if he will be a superstar but yall act like dude will look like a d-league scrub

Add Melo and they're a conference finals loser at best (prob second round).

well you never know, they are def a ECF team with everyone healthy.

Miami is getting old and not looking as strong even in the east. I think this year is the last time they get to the finals unless they reload with some younger and more talent players outside of the big 3. Lebron is Lebron, everyone else tho...

Melo isn't a good fit in DC. He's a ball stopper and the entire offense is designed around Wall penetrating and finding the open man.

If Melo were to adopt his Olympic style of play where he was primarily a shooter, it may work. But Melo playing iso ball and shooting contested long twos isn't going to fly with Wall and Co.

Pointless stat but John Wall led the league in corner 3 assists by a ridiculous amount. Can't see Melo sacrificing a considerable amount of touches in favor of spotting up.

There's also the downside of playing home. He's spoken on it before. Playing in DC he'd be bombarded by "family" with such a close reach to him.

He'd probably also command the max...meaning there may be some issues when its time to reup on Beal

Melo will finally have a real pg since prime billups & he will get easier shots because he wont be the focal point of the offense & you dont think melo would sacrifice touches if it means getting W's that melo/wall pick & pop would be deadly

^ it seems like he just gets lost watching the ball so freaking much, his expressions after each hoops are hilarious

talking about James Harden

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

@ that Harden video

Vernon maxwell is rolling over in his grave

Anyone remember this? LOL

if there's any silver lining, he's not just getting flat out beat by his guy

he seriously just sits there and watches the ball

 

[ill steelo]

Makes me wonder how good Harden will be when he gets a real coach. McHale isn't requiring anything from him on that end

Bless the person that decided to put that video together.

dont see the reason to go to DC. they struggled in the east this season. They have Wall then Beal who isnt a star yet if he get there. What else does the team have? SRS

looks like another Knicks situation minus the drama.

[jabroni jenkins]

When you're a terrible defender, allergic to using the right hand & still manage to be a top 5 player says alot about hardens offensive game

 

[rck3sactown]

the medial of the shoe reminds me of a take down version of the XX3

such a shame

 

[sea manup]

there are bad defenders that scramble to recover after they messed up

then there are guys like james harden who say "my bad" before his man even jumps to lay it up

what do the bulls have besides noah? Stop being bias & be objective for once, wall & beal are both top 10 at their positions + both under 25

bias? am i a Bulls fan? Im a Pistons fan

Noah, Gibson, Hinrich, Butler, very solid bench.

how come Bulls have a better record and play better defense WHILE missing their best player and one of the best players in the L. come on now.

Melo is staying in NY or coming to Chicago. Simple as that.
