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

That's one of the best in-game passes I've ever seen. Holy ****, Iggy!

 

[antidope]

Shoulda taken oladipo

Yup, you always draft for talent, not position. I would have taken Oladipo first. Moves could have been made to make it work, both rotation and transaction wise.

Chris Paul is off to a RIDICULOUS start 

 

[osh kosh bosh]

In most drafts I don't think Bennett would go top 10, especially not 2014. Cavs picked the wrong year to have the number 1 pick.

Cmon man, yes he would.

People letting three game let them rewrite history. Before he hurt is shoulder he was dominating people at UNLV. He would go Top 10 in most drafts.


Anthony was his body over his high school career, he was in the best shape of his when he got to UCLA, work ethic isn't the problem, to me its shots selection, th quickest way for guy like Bennett to become a bust is to believe that they are small forwards, he's taking threes and jump shots, he need to get his *** on the block.

He should be studying Kevin Love not Carmelo Anthony.

He used to say "I need to make the transition to the 2/3" all the time.

KEVIN DURANT DISEASE. :x

i have the whole game video of the jazz and rockets and want to cut it up and make some clips from it, do yall know what kind of software i'd need?

 

[Retroballer]

I think we see where the rockets need to improve and that's fixable so no need to panic. Harden early fouls and not shooting well plus Dwight in foul trouble is the perfect nightmare situation for Houston. Also a PG that Lin can't cover is terrible match up. That's why Bev was starting, hide some of the defensive flaws on the perimeter.

i see a moving screen and a pushoff that weren't called. i also see lazy defense.

beverly isn't a shutdown defender, but at least he would make it a LITTLE harder for cp3.

I dont see Lin playing lazy defense.  He kept his feet moving, stayed in front of him the whole time and forced him into a contested layup.  CP3 is just a great player, most wouldnt be able to stop him

 

[Peep Game]

Yea unless Lin just jumped on Paul like a tight underarmor shirt, he couldn't have played better defense. Now some of those other plays, no excuse for those

 

[quik1987]

That clipper bandwagon getting heavy.

I suspect from "lakers fans"

 

[lawdog1]

That "screen" by Blake is pretty hilarious.

Not his fault; he didn't know where CP was going any more than Lin did.

And you Clippers haters are too much. Act like every foul call they get is because of a flop and every score is because of a missed call or luck.

 

[finallyfamous]

That Iggy pass

 

[markangelo]

We'll see you again this week clips

 

[krazy88s]

Agreed.

*LAC up by 40 mid way thru 1st quarter*

"Refs are blind tonite smh."

 

[sohoguy]

I swear all the rockets need to do is trade Lin and get a 4 man that can shoot and someone on court to yell at harden for his Kobe like defense

I'll be the first to tell you we played like dog **** on defense last night. We didn't make rotations and y'all were hitting shots. I didn't see any flopping outside of BG taking a questionable charge.

I did think y'all got the benefit of calls early which impacted the game. Dwight picking up 2 fouls back to back like he did was laughable. Had 3 well before half. BG&DJ got in foul trouble too, but it was later in the game.

At the end of the day, we had a terrible first quarter, y'all took advantage. We made big runs throughout the game but the clippers were able to withstand every single run and re extend the lead.

With all that said, I'm looking forward to Saturday to see what adjustments both teams make

im one of the biggest lin "haters" in here but thats solid defense. this clip does show how bad harden is on D though, dude has no idea where his man is

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

What were y'all saying about Dwight putting up 30 and 30 and Harden dropped 30+?


HAHAHAHA we dropped 137 on the rockets head bad defense and all..

 

[Peep Game]

Uhhhhh, ok

 

[coldcity]

Yeah, I wasn't talking about you Rockets' fans. You guys all seem pretty reasonable. I'm talking about the people who come in here and !@#$% about the Clippers no matter who they're playing.

As for the game last night, I admit we did get some breaks with a couple of the early calls on Dwight. And I know we won't always come out of the gates shooting that well. I expect a very different game in Houston on Saturday.

Grow the **** up.

Pretty much. I think he only played like 7 minutes the whole 1st half.

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

Garcia was about to wash CP3.

After that incident, CP3 went to work
