Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[a-friend]

Kawhi gets mad respect from the refs.

Forget hand check, you can't touch the Man.

 

[MajinZuub]

Derrick Rose. That number isn't even going to be retired in Chicago.

Dude won an MVP there. They're retiring his number.

Derrick Rose will be known for two firsts.

First MVP to not go to the HoF (he should have zero chance)
First MVP to not his jersey retired (this has a chance of being wrong but that's what I think)

He's a top 3 player in Bulls history he's getting his # retired

 

[a-friend]

Kawhi was in the game with 4 fouls, now he has 5 with 7minutes left in the 3rd.

 

[antidope]

Fantastic.

Also no Derrick Rose isn't.

 

[MajinZuub]

Fantastic.

Also no Derrick Rose isn't.

Great counterargument there at least give names

 

[antidope]

Jordan Pippen Rodman. Did I really need to give these names?

I'm not gonna cosign a jersey retiring for a guy who had three productive seasons somewhere (then again Rodman got it there for only three seasons but I have Rodman over Rose).

If it happens I won't lose sleep over it cause that's franchise dependent and really a fan service thing, but if his exact career played out the way it did in San Antonio I wouldn't be calling for a jersey retirement.

KD is a clown. Dude needs to stop talking already as mind his damn business. Dude lame as hell. Acting like he got JaVales back the same way he was acting like he had Russ back in the interview with Russ and the media.

Shaq needs to smack KD.

 

[glennvagmire]

Rose isn't getting his number retired. Cut it out.

He's not who you thought he was.

Also that MVP season was pretty much given to him regardless. Nobody else could've won it that year besides Dwight. It was a horrible year in the NBA. Bron wasn't gonna get it since he teamed up with Bosh and DWade.

Rose was #6 or#8 in scoring that season too. Most FGAs.

 

[MVP]

What is Blake crying about every time down?

 

[antidope]

That Derrick Rose MVP was a sham, voter fatigue and general hate caused it.

 

[MVP]

Jimmy Butler is going to surpass Rose in Bulls legacy this year if he hasn't already.

 

[glennvagmire]

Jimmy Butler is better than Rose ever was. Jimmy Butler is a dogggg....

 

[a-friend]

Stacy King > Rose

 

[Hank Scorpio]

The Basketball Hall of Fame is the easiest professional sports hall of fame to get into. It's nothing like the Baseball, Hockey or even Football hall of fame.

Winning an MVP and averaging over 17 ppg for your career will get you in eventually.

When guys like Bill Bradley, Alonzo Mourning and Mitch Richmond are in. You HAVE to believe Rose will get in eventually. It's truly pathetic

 

[antidope]

That looks bad. Hope Griffin is good. That was DeAndres fault though.

 

[MVP]

Blake 

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Impressed with the effort from the Clips. Coming off the tail end of a back to back, you'd figure they'd be flat tonight.

 

[antidope]

Blake Griffin is livid. Son is going to have a fit once this games over.

 

[a-friend]

Impressed with the effort from the Clips tonight. Coming off the tail end of a back to back, you'd figure they'd be flat tonight.

This is Blake right here.

He's punishing SAS bigs.

I hate that he didn't do this vs GSW.

 

[vtotheinay]

blake is flopping all over the place. cmon man

 

[M. Fresh]

Blake constantly complains

 

[MVP]

Dippers midas whale tank for that 6 seed. They getting swept out the 2nd round if they stay in that 4/5 hole. 

 

[Hank Scorpio]

This is Blake right here.

He's punishing SAS bigs.
I hate that he didn't do this vs GSW.

For some reason, Blake wets the bed whenever he plays GS. IDK if it's a collective team effort focusing on him, or if it's Dray getting into his head.

Blake constantly complains

He got that from CP3. When two of your best players complain, it residues towards everyone else. That's why they blow these big games and can't ever take that "other" step. Hell, even Doc Rivers complains just as much

It's HILARIOUS

 

[Bert.]

If rose gets his numbered retired by bulls

Then the Atlanta hawks should retire Rasheed wallaces' jersey

 

[a-friend]

I think that is exactly why they can't get over the hump.

I mean, in a 48minute game you see at least 12minutes of Real Time   'ing
