Jonathan Bender

Wasn't he in the 99 draft? I was devastated when the Pacers traded Antonio Davis for him 

yeah, 5th overall pick.....I dont remember if he was a bust or just hurt alot....I know from 04-06 he only appeared in 9 games

He was last signed by the Knicks in 09

I want to say so badly that he was just hurt a lot (which he was), but he was definitely a bust. Dude was as raw as any HSer could possibly be. The injuries didn't allow for him to develop whatsoever

the mavs letting corey brewer walk blows my mind

 

[datznasty]

Mine was Rawle Marshall. He didn't even make the league outright, got a few 10 days and a cup of coffee in Dallas and Cleveland. I thought he was going to be the future of the swingman position

3-5 brothas? You counting assistant coaches?? I can only think of Williams, Cunningham, and Lee 

Williams, DC, Roy, Lee, and Conroy and Josh Howard

well Josh Howard is gone

Williams will be gone soon enough, most likely for another white guy.

Conroy was cut a few weeks ago.

I remember Rawle,

And Corey Brewer was lost in the purge to free up cap space, and the Mavs were banking on Rudy Fernandez, but then they moved him too.

YO! I played pick up with Jonathan Bender on Tuesday here in Houston. I had no idea who he was.

@blazersedge Through three quarters, the Denver Nuggets are 0-27 from outside seven feet.

The Lebron James No Foul streak lives another day...amazing...

 

[ill steelo]

if Spo has to bring Lebron back in. Lead down to 20 with 7 mins left

 

[mosk33toe]

Conversely I wonder if their is a stat for how many straight games Dwight Howard has picked up an offensive foul, I'm sure the streaks are comparable...

 

[Peep Game]

bro, thats 3-5 lol

 

[CP1708]

I remember HP ranting on Twitter before the season that Denver wouldn't have enough shooting, but this is a bit extreme.

 

[luong1209]

That Charles commercial is suspect.

 

[blazers21ntnp]

This Nuggets squad.

 

[ag 47]

we ALMOST saw LeBron get called for his first foul in 2 weeks then the refs reversed it and made it (correctly) the rarest call in all of basketball, face guard foul on Crowder

Incredible.

Aaaand the final shot chart for the Nuggets tonight:

 

[jpzx]

Shaq not knowing Derrick Williams name "Derrick Andreson... no no, what's his name?"

Doing less with more since '04.​

It wasn't even the terrible shooting that killed the Nuggets tonight, it was their embarassing defense. Sure, all the articles and highlights are going to mention the Nuggets' shooting, but they barely lost tonight despite that. Standing there on defense watching Portland shoot 3s, allowing a gimp Wes Matthews to go for 20 while knocking down 4 shots from deep instead of chasing him off the line, having your back/head to the ball and having it passed right by you for lay-ups in the half court--that's what lost the Nuggets this game.

Record books, though: 0-22 At least the Nuggets took something from the Blazers tonight.
