2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

[Bert.]

Why are so many home teams wearing their dark unis?

no clue. Cavs have won wine all 3 games. 2 on road but still odd. Gold I thought was the new away.

i thought you would know, thought cavs announced them as the new road jersey?

the wine is so ugly that it makes not me want to watch the cavs play SRS

the gold is

 

[finallyfamous]

I thought so but they've been wearin wine.

who knows. Bennett would will struggle dont matter the color

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Bennett has been watching way too many Carmelo Anthony tapes, too many jumpshots, he needs to get his shot selection right.

 

[finallyfamous]

I don't mind the jump shot but he hasn't been hitting it and shoots it too often.

His rebounding has been solid.

Offensively he's in a slump. Hopefully for dudes sake he gets it together.

Tristan Thompson on the other hand just keeps getting better and better

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Bennett is another Larry Johnson, right?

Convert a single field goal first. 

 

[sohoguy]

Larry Johnson was a dominate player tho.......

Tell that to the guy who was trying to tell me Bennett was going to be the next Larry Johnson

Every single player on the Sixers is playing exactly how they've always played for us.

MCW & Spencer Hawes both have a 30 PER. They are playing waaaaaaay over their heads, especially the rook. They're putting up All NBA first/second team numbers. Turner is too.

They will inevitably come back down to earth. MCW is putting up Steph Curry numbers from 3 point range after shooting 29% from deep in college & bricking virtually everything in summer league & preseason. The guy was 39% from the field at Cuse.

Please attempt to look at this objectively. The only dude who is giving you anything close to his usual production is Thad Young.

 Seth riding pine and still getting showtime coverage

i don't even think Seth is on a team, LOL

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

who said that?

I wish I would remember but I asked yesterday and nobody came clean. I'll look right now.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Looks like Michellilicous and then awwsome tried to tell me I didn't watch much of Bennett because I didn't think Bennett was nearly as athletic as Larry was.

 

[kevin cleveland]

Tyreke Evans' jumpers through three games:

Not sure how you shoot them next to the rim, but the point still stands. Stop it.

And he's only shooting 43.8% on layups (7-for-16).

Why dudes keep bringing up mcw college #'s, the college game is way slower and the syracuse offense obviously didnt fit his style of play

Lol that man needs to be banned, there won't be another grandmama

 

[black migo]

Bennett = paul millsap, but hes looking more like brandon bass minus the last b

Just looked. Warriors waived him after the preseason

There aren't many college offenses that would have fit him better, really.

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Detroit is going to have 20+ rebounds over Boston tonight. The way Boston has been playing, I'm slowly losing faith. Rondo needs to hurry up and comeback.

when you can't hit shots, what style of play do you exactly fit into?

Smh did you watch any syracuse gms last year or just going off of #s or the couple of tourny gms? they dont run a uptempo offense which is the reason mcw is flourishing so far in the nba, stop looking at a players college #s and say "oh he shot this pct in college, so in the nba he shouldnt be this good"
