NYDNInterNets Stefan Bondy
Van gundy says nothing surprises him in NBA but admits tomorrow is unique — his star has publicly requested a trade to team their playing

Bondy's poor grammar aside, I think SVG got the point across.

Kentucky freshman Michael Kidd-Gilchrist likened his ability to win games to that of Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow.

"I'm like a Tim Tebow," Kidd-Gilchrist said. "I just want to win the games, and whatever it takes, I'm going to do it."

Kidd-Gilchrist is averaging 13.1 points, 6.2 rebounds and two assists per game, and has shown a willingness to lead even more veteran teammates.

"I'm ready to lead," Kidd-Gilchrist said. "I'm a freshman, but so what? I'm just ready to lead and win. I've always been that way."

smh lol

Did anyone know that Skip Bayless has guns for arms?

 

[elcheato]

He's a health nut and workout freak.

Wow...Jazz looked awful. Settled for soooooo many jumpers. Sooooo many jumpers missed. I was disappointed Burks didn't see more time in such a blow out.

If I were their coach I would have said in the 2nd quarter: No more jumpers. Constant movement and cuts on offense get to the hoop. Take a foul if you can, but I want us running circles around these old guys.

Instead it was the Lakers running circle around the Jazz. Just sad.

Kings were holding in there with the Blazers til the 4th quarter. Tyreke had a horrible game, and Honeycutt still didn't play.

Lol I didn't know any of that and saw a sig on another site.

But Eric Gordon is out tonight, wtf. All the excitement I had is now gone.

 

[DJT]

I just want Gustavo to play....dumb visa issues.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I want to see him too.

 

[DJT]

I got him on my 2k game finally, but it seems like he won't see time since he is behind Landry, Kaman, Okafor and Smith.

But i'd give him a shot over Smith...see what he can do.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

From what I've heard Smith has really shown a lot of improvement this year. I don't think the signing of Ayon was really a move to help the team this year, it will probably take a while for him to get adjusted to the NBA (and the english language).

 

[DJT]

Yeah, I've always thought Smith was decent. I just think maybe Ayon could come in and do more.

Norris Cole shining tonight, 0-4 from the field and taking bad shots.

 

[elcheato]

Biyambo looks good

 

[elcheato]

I haven't been a big fan of Ramon Sessions, but he looks like he has actually improved this year.

 

[Elite]

I haven't been a big fan of Ramon Sessions, but he looks like he has actually improved this year.

His numbers were pretty good last season, were they just empty numbers or what's with the hate on him?

 

[elcheato]

They were very empty/hollow numbers. But he's actually making good passes, and not phasing everyone out this year. Jumper looks better too.

Should be a very good back up PG for us, could probably play with Irving in the lineup at the same time if needed. I still wouldn't be opposed to dealing him if we got some kind of pick out of it though.

 

[elcheato]

Kyrie is such a good passer, damn.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Hornets up by 12 against the Celtics with two free throw's coming.

 

[elcheato]

Byron, formley known as BJ Mullens hit 3 straight shots in the 4th quarter against the Heat lmao

edit: Bosh just fucking smashed on someone, good lord
