The 2014-2015 NBA Season Thread. Lock It Up Please: The Golden State Warriors Are The Champions

[a-friend]

If Wade continues to miss games and Heat make a run, I'm taking Bosh as the sleeper MVP.

Wreks, let me go back and rep all your comments, that way you for sure have the win here and we can move on. 

Cool?

Cool.

Repped. Good talk.

Harden mvp

 

Will be a sad state for the NBA if this type of man wins MVP

eric gordon out ...he may return in a new uni

Any team would love to have him. According to our friend, he's a top 5 SG.

Ray "Cheeseburgers" Felton back tonight for the Mavs 

The fall of the Mavs starts tonight. Dude brings nothing helpful to the basketball court.

Smh at Eric Gordon. Dude was fun to watch when he and Blake were tearing s*** up.

Never been the same once he got to New Orleans. Dude wanted to go to Phoenix so bad...but NO had to match to make it look like they got something from the CP3 trade.

Ray Felton hasn't played a second for the Mavs yet and I hate him.

Don't even know why I just do.

lol you really think Carlisle is gonna give him minutes? Dude is gonna warm the bench quite nicely... he's our 4th string PG. The way Barea playing lately, Felton only gonna be out there in blow outs.

harden is the new wade

Nobody ever gets on the Warriors for drafting Ekpe Udoh. That's a common theme though for a team that rises from mediocrity to upper-echelon, though. Suddenly the busts aren't as prominent/relevant.

I really hope he doesn't play. Harris/Nelson/Barea are good enough PG's to help their team win.

IIRC, he actually showed some promise his rookie year with the Ws, at least as a defensive presence. Doesn't look like its panned out though. He can't even get on the floor now for the Clippers.

If Felton gets any run tonight, it's just to see if he can run.

Barea is getting those minutes.

Wait, he really meant Eric Gordon?

I assumed he meant Gordon Hayward and was stretching his definition of a SG.

 

[jpzx]

Udoh hit the floor for three minutes last night.

0 - points, rebounds, steals, blocks, assists, field goals attempted, free throws attempted, personal fouls, turnovers.

He pretty much ran killers for 180 seconds while a basketball game was going on very close nearby.

Yeah Barea eating his minutes, he's been balling out lately... along with B. Wright

Oh wow, honestly had no idea he was on the Clippers now

I didn't put 2 and 2 together.

No clue that was the same guy.

I just can't see this team as a true contender. No offense. They are like Chicago West. Even though Jimmy Butler is slowly becoming a good post up/ ISO scorer.

In my opinion..a good defensive team can bottle up both Conley and gasol. Z bo taking step back 19footers is what they used to go to in crunch time.

A wing scorer is important come playoff time. A lot of times...you need a wing that can get the other team in the bonus..get to the line. Hit tough 20footers, move the ball etc etc. cre

I agree...Marc has to be a lil more selfish..but I don't see him being that effective in that role consistently since that's really not in his nature.

So yes the grizzlies are a team that can get to the WCF...but unfortunately in the west like everybody...they can get bounced in the 1st round as well

You were talking but not saying anything. And in the NBA, you don't win titles unless you can get easy points and defend, not hit tough 20 footers. How many teams have you seen that won a title by hitting contested mid-range shots? I will wait.

Nobody ever gets on the Warriors for drafting Ekpe Udoh. That's a common theme though for a team that rises from mediocrity to upper-echelon, though. Suddenly the busts aren't as prominent/relevant.

Have you seen the Warriors draft picks besides Udoh? Monta, Curry, Thompson, Barnes, Green, Richardson, Arenas, etc. More times than not, the Warriors is money with their draft selection.

I don't blame you. I'm sure there's plenty of Clippers fans who don't know he's on the team. Based on what I've seen so far, his current ceiling looks to be situational fouler.
