NBA Regular Season Thread

[.snowy]

The West this year is a joke. Its 9 teams and then NOTHING. It is incredible how bad the bottom of the West is. Atleast the Easts starts getting gradually worse at the bottom of the Top 8. 14th team in the East would be 10th in the West. The power really has shifted.

The Arizona Cardinals of the NBA? According to ESPN Research, it's the Kings. This franchise, dating to its Royals days, has persisted for 57 seasons without a title, just shy of the Cards' 61-season title drought.

The ESPN new blogs for every team is also doing a get-to-know about your beat/blog writter.

I know. Hopefully they win one before I die.

Pistons less than half an hour away. We desperately need to get back on the winning side of things so we dont get left in the dust. We should do good though because Rip is coming off the bench, and even though he`d prefer not to, he would definately benefit us more coming off the bench than AI.

I'm praying the raptors end their six game losing streak tonight.

Big game tonight, hopefully we come away with the loss. Play the Wizards.

 

[Lake Louise]

If only they weren`t playing Pistons. Otherwise i`d be with you on that one.

Freaking west coast trip <_< Cavs game on at 10:00 and I have 3 mid term exams to take tomorrow.

 

[Mexi]

The Clippers. And Zach Randolph is not pictured. And lets be honest, is a healthy Ricky Buckets really a plus?

Lakers/Clippers tonight!
I expect the human victory cigar Sun Yue to post a career high tonight!

 

[.GR]

Hopefully the Clips start winning.

hahahahahahahaha your joking right greg?
dont worry, this draft sucks anyways. one that i wouldnt want a top pick in

 

[elcheato]

One of my favorite players (Greg Oden) plays the Cavs for the first time in his career. Hopefully him and Aldy don't destroy our weak ass post defense <_< Well its weak whenever AV is in.

Why would you not want a top pick? You KNOW you would want a top pick, better then the 3rd, or the 5th, or the 10th. If Rubio declares we are going to have a stud. If not, Blake Griffin is another guy I see being a star. The rest of the guys can be, but who knows... That's why I'm hoping Houston misses the palyoffs so they get to keep their first and we get theirs next season which will be a lottery I guarentee.

Rubio isnt coming out and Blake Griffin is overhyped

Link? I havent seen one source that said he isnt coming out. And Blake is a monster. A frontcourt of JT-Blake with Hawes off the bench or even all three with JT at the 3 would be sick for the future.

Griffin is gonna be like Drew Gooden. He wont be worth the top pick IMO

and Rubio's agent said he probably will stay and come out in 2010

Honestly, I dont see how anyone can douby Griffin's ability but who knows. You never know, especially with draft classes. This could be a class with a couple superstars, you just never know.

I saw a recent article that someone posted on the Kings Forum I post at that says he will declare if he is guaranteed a top 3 pick.

The Heat just can't score.
