How come there's like five football threads and even a college basketball thread but no NBA thread?

Has the Heat ruined it for everyone? I remember when they were perpetual scrubs.
 
Im not a basketball fan.

I will watch the playoffs and root against the lakers if I get a chance though.
 
^ come on man, let's go kings! arco arena used to be a wild house back in the days

i'm all aboard the grizzzzzzzzz band wagon, and the bucks, fear the deer, son

mainly cause minnesota's(college) SG is austin hollins

son of memphis head coach lionel hollins

the kid has made crazy strides since his freshman year(currently a jr), but at 6'4 he's just too undersized to play in the nba, but makes up for it with crazy athleticism

i really wish i had an nba team i was emotionally attached to, was a huge jazz fan back in the golden era, and was a HUGE celtics fan when the starting 5 was pierce, walker, erik williams, tony battie and kenny anderson

i lost interest in them once i got into drugs and they brought in kg and ray allen and which is weird considering i love those guys

and the heat used to be scrubs? pretty sure they only missed the playoffs 4 times since coming into the league in '88
 
If I were to have a b-ball team it would need to be the warriors, probably one of the saddest franchises in all of pro sports over the last decade or so.
 
^I can relate. My football team is the Dolphins, and currently I don't really care about football. It's not that I'm a fair weather fan. It's that I refuse to support a team that has been taken captive by a deranged saboteur of an owner.
 
ESPN normally played NBA on Wednesday nights. Tonight they're playing amateur basketball instead. This is communism.
 
I'm watching Rockets vs. Thunder right now, and Timberwolves vs. Clippers is up next.

Harden's first game back in OKC and he is playing the worst game of his career. He almost got in a fight with an OKC player in the 2nd quarter, this game is wild.

Wow there was a brawl between Boston and Brooklyn. Rondo went crazy on Kris Humphries backed him all the way off the court it was fucking awesome. Too bad he got ejected and that ended his streak to break the record for most consecutive games with 10+ assists.. he was going to break it too. He is 2nd all time now.


Can't wait for the Timberwolves vs. Clippers game! Lets go MN! Kevin Love coming off of a 23 point, 24 rebound game. He is a fucking beast.

LOL at Joey Crawford making this overly dramatic Block call during the 4th quarter of the Lakers/Pacers game last night. And he totally blew the call.. it was a charge, anyone could see that.

Wtf is this guy doing???? Hahahahaha seriosuly he does it 5 fucking times.

Kobe was fucking pissed!

the nba needs delonte west back

just like they needed 'sheed back

love his antics so far this year

after aaron affalo missed a FT you can hear him scream ' YEAH AFFLAC!'

and after austin rivers missed a FT on a touch foul called on 'sheed you can hear him scream 'THAT bALL DON'T LIE!!"

on a side note, once you get the AI sliders down to your specific needs, nba2k13 is the best video game i've ever played

pg: brandon jennings
sg: rudy gay(probably more of a 3, but whatever)

Spurs at Heat tonight, and Popovich is sitting Duncan, Parker, Ginobli and Green. Because he's Popovich.

Personally, I enjoy watching a cakewalk, if it's my team doing the walking. I wouldn't mind it if we played against Hialeah High every night.

Gregg Popovich is being penalized by the NBA for resting his starters against the Miami Heat tonight.

Duncan
Parker
Ginolbli
Green

I find this ridiculous... You're going to penalize a coach for coaching his team the way he wants to? Doesn't make any sense. Popovich realizes he has a very old team and wants to give his players rest throughout the season so they can be serious competitors in the playoffs.

Any thoughts on this?
 
He could've talked his way out of it. He could've claimed they were all injured.

But I think I agree with Sterne. They're putting out a product, and letting Pop's blatant affront go unrebuked sets a really bad precedent. What if all playoff-bound teams began doing this throughout the season?

It would have been funny if the Spurs would've won (which they almost did).
 
Coaches should be able too play whatever players they want. Trust me, not that many teams are going to sit their starters like the Spurs did tonight. Teams need wins, and some players want to play and would refuse to sit. Spurs players agreed on sitting out because they thought it was a good idea to get a days rest in with all the games they have been playing recently(And they are all old).. it's not like Popovich was forcing them to sit out.
