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

I honestly don't really see whats wrong with this...

I think it's kind of foul cause at the end of the day, you're hiding someones achievements and successes.

its like putting big brothers trophies away after he goes to college so that the younger sister feels better about herself 

No. Actually it's nothing like that. It's a CLIPPERS home game. It's technically the clippers building. Lakers have NOTHING to do with a clipper home game so why display their banners? For that night, it's the clippers home and you do what you want in your home. You clowns are acting like they're taking them down forever. Lakers are my favorite team and even I'm glad the clips are having some pride in themselves.

I don't know if they take them down during other non basketball events or not, I'm thinking they take them down for the grammy's. I guess you dudes think that's disrespectful too huh.

100%

Thank you

they dont take them down for the grammy's, why would they do that? its not like banners at the far top end of a stadium will distract people from the show. why are the clippers the only people who do this? most teams share their arenas with other teams and i dont see anyone else crying that they dont have any accomplishments and covering up what others have earned

Seeing Derrick Rose back to his old self this preseason is great. Shame on those Bulls fans and fans in general who tried to rush him back before he was ready. This is the guy that needs to be on the court. Not one thrown in at the end of a season, still unsure of himself.

And lol @ ppl crying about Clips covering the Lakers banners. Don't like it, don't share an arena.

Oh and Melo @ 15 is hilarious.

well they are the only team to share an arena with another nba team

do any other professional teams share an arena with another team in the same league?

 

[HIM]

pot meet kettle


just so you wont be sensitive and cry about my multiple posts again:
whats next? putting sheets over the statues of magic, kareem, chick, and jerry west outside on gamedays?

what the hell are you talking about? Pull your skirt down.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

what the hell are you talking about? Pull your skirt down.

Dudes is taking things to the next level. Covering statues? Comparing the Grammys to a clipper game? It's truly a sad sight to see how a grown man could be so hurt over something like this

 

[tommyicerocking]

Favors will have a better statistical season than Blake Griffin and will make the ASG.

 

[lawdog1]

most teams share their arenas with other teams and i dont see anyone else crying that they dont have any accomplishments and covering up what others have earned 

Name me two other teams that share a building that are in the same division of the same conference of the same league. I'll wait.

And, according to the Clippers local broadcast last night, putting up the big player banners was Doc's idea. He wants it so that when people come to a Clippers home game, they're getting a %100 Clippers experience in the arena. Makes perfect sense to me.

Nothing wrong with my Clippers covering up that LAL stuff during a LAC home game. Keywords LAC HOME GAME!!

 

[awwsome]

So glad the young king Rose is back, man I missed watching this guy play basketball.

So explosive, ***** legs is like rockets

 

[carltonjunior]

 
Still think D.Rose wont get back to real himself until close to all star break

I don't know what you mean, he's playing better now than he's ever played, the team too.

Quote:

 
i feel like he will only play 2-3 games a week, and take a game off at least once a week

I don't think he'll take many games off but he'll play much less minutes and be much more conservative in certain games, I think.

And the Rose bandwagon is back ...

Not the Rose bandwagon, just the Bulls fans that were already here with the occasional fans that admire him. Why can't basketball fans like basketball?

YOOOOOOOO @ face

 

[coldcity]

Just finished watching last night's game, and I gotta say, health permitting, Rose is going to have a much better yr than his Mvp season. He's stronger, faster, more aggressive driving to the hoop, his pullup in transition looked better than it was, he looked more confident pulling 3s, and he even added some wrinkles in the defensive end. He's a flat out better player than he was before, and I don't even think he has all his timing back yet. This is a man on a mission.

This dude is going to make players take a year off even with just minor injuries ... goodness. Dude looked like he never got injured at all.

loudest , most packed pre season game ive ever been to

The windy city assassian is back & he brought a 3 point shot with him

 i wish t mac and Hill took a year off

 

[everysingletime]

Someone has to post that coast to coast layup he had against the Grizzlies. Dare you to watch that and still say he needs until the winter break to get to his old self. Lol.

 

[awwsome]

Grandpa Russell feels so immortal with 11 rings and being able to wear the same suit for 70 years that he doesn't feel the need to abide by federal law

Rose need more helps though. Lou Deng is inconsistent and Boozer sucks. Defense can help win championship but you also need a whole lot of firepower on offense.

I don't see anything wrong with Clippers covering up Lakers banner. Technically speaking the Lakers do not own Staple center and beside it's Clipper home game. Why does Clippers fan need to see Lakers banners? lol

 

[awwsome]

Bulls still have Butler and Noah who are both getting better on the offensive end every year. They added Dunleavy who is a 40% 3pt shooter and drafted Snell who also can shoot the rock. We know Rose can get 25 a game, I don't think they'll have much problems on offense unless facing a truly elite team like Miami
