I remember when Love had trouble against athletic bigs at UCLA. couldn't do anything in the Final Four against that dorsey dude on Memphis

and now he's dominating NBA all-stars :x


Wish he had lost that weight back in college

 

[tommyicerocking]

Perkins era ova

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

"Unlike Perkins, he actually performs when he's got his game face on.."

I LOVED Vucevic at USC, so I'm going to take that as a draft analysis win for me.

Nice win man.




Go treat your self to some poutine or mcdonalds pizza (if they still do that in Canada)

cause he developed a jumper, and lost weight.

Love best PF in the game by a wide margin his game is awesome....hope minny keeps being mediocre then come 2015 he's the prime FA target for my sixers

I really thought the cavs would take that jump but man they looked TERRIBLE last night...I wouldn't even be shocked if we win again tonight and go 6-2 smh

 

[duba169]

Wowwwww I didn't know Anthony Davis was playing like THAT

 

[jumpmantwenty3]

imagine playing 21/tips against Love. would be a nightmare

What can OKC do to get rid of Perkins 2 years 17.5 mil?
Dude is just wasting space on the floor, its almost like OKC playing with 4 dudes when he's on the floor.
Steven Adams needs to be starting. Dude would average 15 & 10 easily. But they cant start him cause Perk gonna be mad as ****.
But no team would take Perk, so I dunno what OKC to do

but its not like perk is some crucial piece where if hes mad they lose a big part of the team

dude is a bum

 

[black migo]

be careful in here with those remarks...

but

Dudes forgetting how nice d miles was/ couldve been, wiggins looks like he could be what we thought d miles should've been but those next lebron statements can go out the window thats not happening, two different type of games

They have their amnesty still.

And I still have faith in Biyombo, he's just taking longer than expected.

 

[jumpmantwenty3]

I think Perk should still be on the team. Use as a stopgap for potential Dwight matchups in the playoffs.

It's like Perkins has blackmail material on everybody. When you hear anyone from the GM to the coach to the players talk about Perkins you wonder if they are scared of him and it' causing them to misremember. I mean I know they won't throw him totally under the bus, but to exaggerate so much the other way and always laud his "intangibles, leadership, etc." when I can even objectively prove those things false is just befuddling.

And nobody is taking his contract right now while he still has 2 yrs. next yr when he's an expiring, maybe you can deal him at the deadline but the "cost" to take Perkins off our hands is probably a 1st rd pick and a youngin, which Presti just isn't willing to part with, especially that mysterious Dallas pick we still have. There's amnesty, but cheap owners aren't bout that life, having to pay him and pay a replacement.

Pacers taking their first L this season

Joey Dorsey looked like a jacked up 30 year old on steroids in college, I would have been a lil shook too if I was tubby ol 18 year old Love.

 

[sea manup]

waits for perk to get traded and the thunder fall apart due to locker room issues 

 

[buc em]

If Perkins got amnestied and the Celtics wouldn't sign him I bet Rondo would go on a killing spree. That's his BFF.

 

[sea manup]

celtics get perkins and loses every game for the rest of the season

rondo gets to chill with his bff

everyone wins

Would we really have to pay a replacement though?

I mean we're really looking for someone to cover about 10 mins per, which thabeet should be capable of.. Where is Orton?

 

[Platinum State]

^
Orton's in Philly

 

[awwsome]

Was high on Adams from the jump

All my rookies playing well, besides Bennett

 

[IATT]

I say that, because hopefully Adams can be a 30 min per guy..

Then ibaka should get 30 mins per at both big spots.. Collison should be at 20 mins per between both spots.. And kd should get some mins at the 4


Then we got pj3 to sprinkle in.. Hopefully Roberson can develop and get mins at the 3 and 4 spots if teams go small.. And then we have the stretch 4 out of zona

True.. Thanks

Same here

Dudes laughed at me when I said AD could be Minny KG with better defense soon

Young king.
