Official 2013 NBA Offseason Thread

how's Oladipo doing? I hope he pans out in the NBA, I had how people are comparing him to Jordan though. That never works out good

It looks like I should have been much higher on him. In his first four games he got to the line 40 times. Yes its summer league, but his style of play translates to the NBA pretty well. He's amazing at getting to the line and seeking contact. And, he's a much better shooter than I anticipated. I see a lot of Dwyane Wade in him to be honest.

Ben didn't play in the paint as much as VO. Relied much more on contested jumpers.

Ben needs to be on a team with contenders. Hes in what I call " get dat money" phase. He'll end on a contender after the end of his contract.

kobe lost his explosiveness 3 years ago? dude caught like 10 bodies last year including josh smith.

dominique wilkins tore his achilles at age 32 and came back averaging more points....kobe will be fine. yall really don't understand he is a different kind of beast

It seems like 90% of the players in the NBA are only after the money. Look what OJ did

I hate how everyone lanky and around 6'7 gets compared to Scottie Pippen. I remember I heard Jamario Moon x Pippen comparisons and Evan Turner too. SMFH

Random but Boozer really went an entire season with hair dye by far one of the silliest things i've ever witnessed in my life

 

[shoeking2101]

Everywhere Goudelock goes he turns it out man he's got to find an NBA gig soon. 15 points already and it's not even halfway through the 2nd quarter
