Westbrook off his meds tonight

I was at the game last night and he was definitely off of his meds. He got into it with a few Blazer fans. He threw the ball into the stands and was pretending to throw it to a ref

OKC needs Payne back to back up russ and Christen or however you spell his name is terrible. Hopefully Dipo plays tonight against the Jazz because it was horrible watching the 2nd unit live last night.
 
Not only is EJ ballin, my guy Bledsoe is too.
Does my heart good to see my guys thriving :)


he was playing really good basketball last season before the injury.

it would've been nice to see the clippers keep him (though, not likely) along with all the other dawgs ya'll had on the 2012 roster. reggie evans, kenyon martin, bledsoe, butler, etc. just a bunch of dawgs to watch over blake :lol

I said it tongue in check but dude really is "off" probably ADHD or something
 
Top 3-5 picks usually workout for a handful of teams :lol

He worked out for LA, NY, and refused Philly for obvious reasons. 

You think if LA wanted to draft him he would have said "Nah I wanna go to New York"? 

Doesn't matter any way. We'll have KP until 2025 at the least.
 
I see some Sixer fans hating on Noel and Okafor but I feel for them. It's tough when you've worked so hard to get to that level, have a certain vision for your future, but you begin your career in a complete car crash with uncertainty about what's to come.

It's easy to say **** like "they should be happy their being paid millions...I work at foot locker...blah blah blah" but this is their livelihood. It's like getting hired as a programmer @ Facebook and then watching them hire 4 other programmers and having them tell you "a couple of you will be leaving soon...but hey put a smile on your face and come to work happy everyday". 

I'm one of the few on here who actually understood and co-signed Hinkie's plan but I can act like this wasn't going to be a byproduct of "the process". 

Noel would have been better off in New Orleans :{

I really like Noel and what he has to bring. His motor and determination to prove everyone wrong.

I do hope he gets traded to a team that will allow him to thrive. I can see the Blazers and Suns making a run for him.

As far as Jah goes, I still see his role as a 6th man to be more fitting than a starting center given his offensive limitations and poor defense. Jah needs to improve three things if he wishes to fulfill his potential. Team defense, a mid-range game, and pick and roll offense. All areas that can absolutely be taught.

If he does that, he can become an all-star.

Jah needs to be a 6th man like Enes.
 
Listened to a podcast earlier (forget which one) and the background check on Noel isn't very good for whatever reason. I think he has that shady handler from his HS days around still.
 
Remember when he trashed tf out of that rented house and left the toilets full of **** :lol. That was a red flag for me
 
Totally random, but did anyone watching the garbage time minutes at the end of last night's Blazers/Thunder game catch the shoes Tim Quarterman (#55 on Portland) was wearing? I couldn't get a good enough look at them on TV to make out what they were, but for the life of me they seemed to be mid-'90s Reeboks or Cons. Looked like he was wearing his older brother's high school kicks. Anyway, if anyone happened to see what they were and could chime in, TIA.
 
Melo's first 15 games: 47% from the field, 35% on threes, 56.8 TS%

His last 10 games: 35% from the field, 29% on threes, 46.7 TS% :x
 
Broke the news to a dude who's family had reservations for the Grizz vs Cavs about getting #Popoviched tonight, earlier this morning. After I saw the look on his face, he should have just found out himself.

Pretty good read about #Popoviching on Forbes website today. Good takes on both sides of the argument for and against.

There's really no solution outside of shortening the season. 

So the fans need to direct their criticism towards the league and not the players.

What's the W/L record in those splits?

First 15: 8-7
Last 10: 6-4

8-7 vs 6-4, but the 6 wins came against Minny twice, Sacramento twice, Miami, and the Lakers.

Thanks for these, guys.

8-7 w/ Melo playing good ball...6-4 when he's not. The latter record might just be reflective of the Knicks being better than we give them credit for. Beating teams they should win against even with Melo being terrible. The Porzingis hype is real.
 
First 15 games Melo & Porzingis were playing well but Rose wasn't that good. Last 10 Melo's been terrible but Porzingis & Rose have been playing great.

I don't think we've played a game all year when all 3 guys are clicking.
 


Donkey gotta stop man :lol


Someone just needs to run at him like Fisher did Scola. One of these days a dude is gonna snap on him. Might get exposed like KG did when Peeler wasn't having it that day :lol Gave him the 2 piece and things got awfully quiet.
