Don't know if this has been posted, but I've never seen it before, so here it is:



Still being the habitual line-stepper we know and love :lol
 
Maybe but this is what we all expected of him back in the day
Who expected OJ to shoot 60% from downtown?

As far as OJ is concerned, this is a guy who's a high school legend, ended his freshman year of college doing exactly what he's doing now, why can't he continue to do this?
Why can't he continue to shoot 60% from 3? Seriously? He's on pace to destroy anything that Reggie Miller or Ray Allen ever did. C'mon son.

He is simply riding out a hot stretch. He'll settle at the low-to-mid 40s from three by the end of the season, combined with his above average %'s from inside the arc, and he'll have a solid season. But not anything close to what he's doing now.

And if you disagree, screen cap this & lets check back on December 22.
Man when I first started checking this guy out back in High School I thought he was the FUTURE. No lie I thought he would be what LeBron is now. Whenever he plays out of his mind I'm just sitting there thinking that this is what hes supposed to be doing.
 
^Seeing old videos of those 2 never get old :smokin I always feel like im getting a history lesson :lol

Good read on Brandon Roy... http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/i...y_opens_up_about_why_he_came_back_what_i.html

He explains that he has degenerative arthritis, which erodes and eventually eliminates cartilage, with the same precision and ease that came to define his run of three consecutive All-Star appearances. And with the calm that made him one of the game's best finishers, he explains that his knees have reached Level III arthritis. There are only four stages.

"Level IV," Roy says fearlessly, "is when you get a knee replacement."

If people value shot blockers so much like Ibaka, I'm sure he will be considered very good by some people in a few years.


He's more than that at very young age he has excellent defensive instincts, look at the way he protects the ring as opposed to trying to swat things into the stands. He needs to gain I would say 25 more pounds tho to reach his potential.

his offense has been improving as well. it's good to see young players getting better and adding to their game each season

Yea I know. I'm a Biyombo supporter. It was really just a knock on Ibaka and how some people think he's a DPOY level type of player right now.
 
I can't wait till Roy becomes the first NBA player to play with replacements knees

That was amazing D but I wonder if Andrea got fouled.
The NBA has already said the refs missed it

New York (AP) --
The NBA said Thursday that officials Ed Malloy, John Goble and Violet Palmer missed a foul by Charlotte's Michael Kidd-Gilchrist against Toronto's Andrea Bargnani on a jump shot in the final seconds of the Bobcats' 98-97 victory Wednesday night.
The league also said Bargnani should have been given two free throws and the clock stopped with approximately 2.4 seconds remaining. Replays showed Kidd-Gilchrist's right hand made contact with Bargnani's left wrist as the Toronto player shot, with the ball coming up well short.
 
The league should actually do something besides issuing a statement. But I guess it's too late now?

What else can they do really? Fine the refs? Suspend the refs? Replay the possession the next time they meet up? Simulate the possession and free throws thru accuscore and go with the results of that?

Fining the refs would be a start.
