2010-11 NBA Thread

that was a game Chris Bosh should want to forgot (at least on the offensive side of the ball). I see myself pulling for the Chicago Bulls more and more, Derrick Rose is absolutely igniting in his point guard play. the only thing is, it is tough to root for Joakim Noah's ugly ass face for an entire game

Cavs got Baron Davis and let go of Mo Williams for a first round Clippers draft pick? I love Williams, but I have to remember his god awful play in the NBA Playoffs - I don't think this was the best move for the Clips, and I find myself now hoping they lose all their games (so that first round draft pick is nice and juicy) lol

The Bulls should be praising jesus for the win they just got last night. Bosh was open for almost all of his shots, and somehow managed to miss all but one. If he were 4 for 18, The Heat would have won, and if he were on his regular game, it would have been a blowout.

Its not a matter of coincidence and the bulls shouldn't be thanking anyone... it was their defense. Its not coincidence they are ranked number 1 in the league and Noah was on Bosh most of the game in his head and shutting him down.
 
yeah... I believe both teams forced one another into like 44 percent shooting for the night. either they both were having a shitty night shooting, or they both were playing great defense

since both teams are solid defensive teams, I always like to rest my thoughts with the latter
 
Did you watch the game?

When the Heat last lost to the Celtics, there were no excuses. The Celtics outplayed the Heat. Sure, they used a few dirty tactics, such as KG's nasty elbow to Mike Miller's head, and Rondo buzzing around LeBron like a fly in order to draw a technical, but they won, and looked like the better team.

On the other hand, Bosh had the worst night of his career while wide open all night. It's not like Bosh even needs to be open to hit that shot, but if you watched the game you would see how uncharacteristically poor he shot, and that he was definitely not properly defensed.
 
Axl, Bulls shot 41.5 and held miami to 40.5 after they shot ~50% in the first half. After the cavs dropped 31 in the first, the bulls held them to 14 in the third.

The bulls on the season have held teams to under 41% FG at home, fucking crazy.

EDIT:

I did watch the game and I watch every bulls game as I live near Chicago.
 
Cavs just beat the Knicks lol.

of course I check in whenever the Cavs win, and here I am after a pleasant victory my team stole from the new-look New York Knicks

I hate this superfriend/alliance style of play these NBA athletes are succumbing to, set as a precedent by LeBron James. could you ever imagine Michael Jordan hitting up Karl Malone and John Stockton, saying it would be real swell to form a Big Three? hell naw. I know the Knicks will go on to far more green pastures than the Cleveland Cavs, but it's nice to see the middle-sized market beat a big-market team

something a sports fan is accustomed with when watching the NFL, and it's admirable sense of parity

EDIT: hilarious tweets, Serious. it's always funny seeing a dumb athletes response VIA his Twitter feed
 
I'm preemptively calling the Kendrick Perkins trade one of the dumbest decisions in the history of decisions.

don't get used to it. there may not even be a franchise player clause in the NFL's new CBA. If the NBA had a similar clause then the Cavs would still have Lebron

wow since 1983 only 7 teams have been NBA champs--an average of a 4-peat per team
 
Wow all 3 of the nationally televised games were playoff level intensity, lovin it. And I know all of you were too.
 
^^^ same for mike bibby as well. there is no way the heat arnt getting at least one of the two. ide say bibby for sure
 
"underprivileged"?!

Jay Z is going to go all Cristal and call that racist, they better watch out
 
The Oklahoma City Thunder has agreed to terms on a contract extension for Kendrick Perkins, the 6-foot-10 center acquired via trade with Boston last Thursday, The Oklahoman has learned.
Terms of the deal were not immediately known, but Perkins is eligible for a four-year extension. Perkins earlier this season had turned down a four-year offer worth approximately $22 million from the Celtics.
With the two sides agreeing to a deal now, the risk of Perkins leaving the Thunder as an unrestricted free agent this summer has been removed.
Perkins said in his introductory press conference Saturday that he wanted to be in Oklahoma City for “the long haul.”
“I hope I can be here,” Perkins said. “I (want to) be here. I couldn’t find a better situation for myself. I really want to be here. It’s just a great organization.”
-DM-

Wonder how much he got... probably 35 mil.
 
so who do ya'll got in your prelimenary Top 3 picks for NBA MVP?

mine are...

1) Derrick Rose
2) Dwight Howard
3) LBJ

but there is a LOT of basketball to be played. this is the time when the MVP should start to get hot...

I think Kobe Bryant could get the MVP this year, sort of like making up for him only winning one MVP award in his entire career
 
1. D-Rose
2. D-Rose
3. D-Rose

I'd love to see Kobe get one more, he deserved it more than Dirk... but it's not gonna happen.


Some people just don't realize that James has the luxury of having Wade (arguably the best SG in the game), carrying the Heat and taking over games when LeBron isn't on. Who does Rose have of that same caliber?

Rose is more deserving of the award, especially since he has been winning games without Boozer early in the season and without Noah now.


Approximately, half of the Heat games this year, LeBron has led or carried the team. In approximately the other half of the team's games, Wade has led or carried them.

No other MVP candidate has anything close to this. Gasol is the dominant force on the Lakers instead of Kobe in a game maybe one out of ten games. Boozer leads the Bulls rather than Rose maybe two or three games out of ten. And nobody except Dirk ever leads the Mavs-- if Dirk isn't there to lead them, they don't win period...







Damn those Mavs are so deep...
