NBA Regular Season Thread

If we can pull out 37-40+ wins this season will be a success for me.. a playoff appearance would be like Christmas even if we are swept lol

Its been a long 7 years of no playoffs and when we played the Nets 7 yrs ago we were swept.

 

[Mexi]

no dez, they made the playoffs in 04 i think?
i remember the Tim Thomas/Kenyon Martin "Fugazy" thing lol

 

[dez]

Your right it was 04... but it feels like 7 yrs lol

Knicks have a rlly tough test tonight as they go to San Antonio and face the Spurs. Gonna need very good performances from Randolph and Crawford.

 

[Whisper]

Test? What test? All San Antonio has now is Duncan :lol: With Parker and Ginobili out the Spurs next best option is Roger Mason... which isn't saying much, just an energy sixth man scorer type of guy at best. I give this match up to the Knicks... but hey who knows, there's a reason why they play the game.

Tonight also has the Lakers on the road against the Mavs. I'm optimistic about the match up, obviously Carslile's game plan has yet to fully take effect with the Mavs, but during their only road trip so far this season the Lakers struggled. Josh Howard, weather he plays tonight or not I think is going to be the deciding factor.

 

[yezzir]

He's right, the Spurs are really vulnerable right now.

 

[dez]

Im expecting a win agaisnt the Spurs since they have lost two of their top three to injuries, we need to run their old asses to death....

But latley OJ has made a strong case for ROY averaging 21PPG and dropped 30+ in the last two games... I know TYO has been yelling ROY for a minute, and I have gone on record to say I think he had it locked too...

Anyone else ready to jump off the Oden bandwagon and onto Mayo's?

Anybody watching the Lakers/Mavs game?

Gerald Green is starting for Josh Howard, and has 8pts in 8mins.... hasn't missed a shot yet.

 

[cruzg24]

Good for the mavs, they need to get their act together.

As for ROY, I have my money on Michael Beasley.

 

[MapleLeaf]

Best quarter of the year by the Mavs without a DOUBT. Everyone looked good besides Dirk which I'm not concerned about.

Green has looked great for us the last couple of games.

 

[MapleLeaf]

And now back to the offense where we're lucky to get off a good shot.......

God we need to get a backup PG. It's stunning how you can tell the difference from when Kidd is in the game till when JJB is in the game

 

[cruzg24]

Nice video mapleleaf

 

[555666]

Good game so far. Looks like J-Kidd is gonna get a triple-double. 11pts, 6asts, 6rebs so far... Would be his first of the year.

 

[elcheato]

Cavs win 99-93.. LBJ drops 41 points yet again, he had 6 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals as well.. Cavs are now 6-2.

 

[dez]

Knicks lead 41-38 over the depleted Spurs

I need NBATV or League Pass or something....

 

[555666]

Cavs win 99-93.. LBJ drops 41 points yet again, he had 6 assists, 5 rebounds and 3 steals as well.. Cavs are now 6-2.

Why does that not surprise me? He's always getting 41pts.....

 

[MapleLeaf]

Ok 2nd quarter, bench again was killing us though.

Kidd with 11-7-6 thru 2 <3

 

[Whisper]

Looks like the Mavs night, or rather Nowitzki's night. Everytime the Lakers get close Nowitzki hits some tough hand-in-his-face shot to spark another Dallas run...

 

[.GR]

Wow.
Thompson is starting at the 3!

[MapleLeaf]

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOL
