sooooo that tells melo......?

 

[MambaMentality824]

I was pumped that NBA TV was showing the game live last night

Game was

Victor is a balllllerrrrr.

If Magic get another good piece in this draft they have potential

Man I was thinking, Magic should be targeting Exum. An Exum-Oladipo backcourt would be so damn fierce.

 

[AEA18]

If the Magic finish with a better record than 76ers will Oladipo get ROTY over MCW?

 

[buc em]

Oladipo and Vucevic

I don't think it'll matter who has a better record between the Magic and Sixers...they're both gonna be in the top 3 worst records in the league most likely.

 

[pmatic]

Oladipo

:x

Very Westbrook-like.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Vic is a nice piece

Don't think he resembles Westbrook tbh

 

[proshares]

We already know the plot. He's gonna join the monstars and beat the too thus enslaving them.

The consistency is admirable

I just walked into hoop practice and theres a bunch of 10 year olds in here talkin about Bill Russel

You know who's even saltier than Bill Russel? Oscar Robinson. Heard him on NBA radio the other day and it was just 15 minutes of complaints about the modern NBA. Even though I actually agreed with some of things he said, it was like, "damn, lighten up a little, man."

other than averaging a triple double, i dont see the hype with Oscar. i wouldnt even call him top 10 IMO

And some of you actually respect the opinion of this guy

Born again troll

Good win for the Clips.

Oh......................................

Few things automatic in life. Death, taxes, and the Grizz owning those soft fools from LA.

Right. If you call a close loss on the road, when the home team got a lot of breaks, and the bench only scored 5 points, getting "owned," then I guess.

Plus, you said specifically that Blake wasn't going to do anything and he had 28 and 13. I'd say that's doing something. Would have been more if not for the weak-***** 3rd foul he got in the second quarter.

Sold the farm? The Knicks sent Felton, Gallo, Chandler, Anthony Carter, Shelden Williams, Mozgov, Curry, and Anthony Randoplh for Melo.


3 of them arent even in the league anymore, Gallo hasnt played in damn near a year, Billups is a glorified bench coach, we got Felton back and he's terrible. Mozgov is barely a rotation player, and Wilson Chandler is pretty solid.

Knicks will have cap room in 2015 to sign 2-3 stars regardless if Melo stays or not.

I worded it that way cause a lot of times I hear about how it Melo would've signed with the team the Knicks already had in place that they wouldn't be in this situation. Melo's still my favorite player and wish y'all were doing better for his sake, even tho this season isn't his fault. Only thing y'all losing is doing for us is putting us in a better position to have a higher lottery pick since we're trash too.

How would a team comprised of recently buy-out/waived guys fare in the East? Udrih, MWP, Granger, Jamison, Clark, Ben Gordon, Big Baby?

 

[sea manup]

hope my dude MWP goes to a contender

ron artest back in indiana

Wouldn't even be good in 2K

Clippers could use Big Baby though, the other guys are fodder.

Are all those buy outs official now?

 

[pmatic]

Jamison, Clark and Big Baby are official. Everybody else is in the works.

 

[lawdog1]

I haven't seen MWP play this season really - can he still play defense at least?

 

[sea manup]

last year he was a step slow and better off guarding post players

still has quick hands though

 

[tomdiginson]

I'd take Granger, Davis and maybe Gordon.

 

[lawdog1]

I really hope the Clippers get Big Baby. We really, really need another big.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Understatement

Speaking of the Clippers...their bench is worse than I thought. I still see a first round exit this year. Not nearly enough depth.

tbh if they could sign Big Baby, Doc needs and should make that bench work once Reddick gets healthy.

Collison, Crawford, Barnes and Baby is about a good a bench as you could hope for. Health is always a factor though

 

[pmatic]

Lowkey, besides the development of Griffin and Jordan the regular season has been an unfortunate one for the Clippers.

Paul and Redick have been dealing with injuries all season, Barnes and Dudley have been disappointing, little depth. Still a really good team obviously, but we really haven't witnessed what they could do at full strength for an extended period of time.

 

[shoeking2101]

The Clips just have to get healthy by the playoffs. They haven't been healthy all year
