2012-2013 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Mexi]

what with those 2 pugz?

 

[Pugz]

they cant defend the a pf like lebron but its still a mismatch for them in the future, that is.

 

[Mexi]

yeah the heat are going to create so much hell

usually artest would guard him but if he plays PF, Pau cant be chasing battier around and if he leaves to help on lebron, open 3s

 

[Mexi]

lakers announcer is probably the worst. i cant stand him
"fresh snow from the outside" when someone makes a 3. what the hell?

still says "slam dunk"

and he's almost exclusively calling Dwight by the worst nickname ever. "D-12". hate that nickname

 

[The Young One]

T-ROB YAMMED ON DWIGHT

 

[Mexi]

seriously, if the kiings players develop...

i LOVE DeMarcus. might be my fav player in the league
TRob could be pretty nice
thats quite the tandem

and some pretty nice players otherwise. Tyreke, Marcus, Brooks, Thompson, i like James Johnson

i kinda like them

 

[ZigZag]

TRob needs to be more aggressive taking the ball to the hoop. He's got just as much ups as Blake with a better wingspan

 

[buzzy]

Robinson is my favorite rookie already

 

[Rios15]

Jonas coming through on defense. 2 blocks in first 5 minutes

After carefully weighing both sides of the argument, the NBA is ready to re-cast its ballot.

The league is set to tweak its All-Star Game balloting process, doing away with position designations for forwards and centers and instead asking fans to vote for three "frontcourt" players, according to NBA.com.

The website said the announcement is scheduled for Wednesday and the change is based on the more nebulous definition of player positions in NBA lineups and a reaction to San Antonio's routine designation of Tim Duncan -- a listed power forward who often played like a center.

"It makes sense," vice president of basketball operations Stu Jackson said to NBA.com. "It made sense to our competition committee. Having a center is the only specific position that was singled out on the ballot. It just seemed a little outdated and didn't represent the way our game has evolved. By the same token, it also affords the same opportunity, if you have two good centers in a given year, pick 'em both. They both can be selected. Which is impossible right now."

The NBA is scheduled to debut the 2013 All-Star ballot on Nov. 13 with the All-Star Game slated for Feb. 17 at Houston's Toyota Center.

^ About time.

 

[bosoxlover12]

I agree its not good to have a C position, but 3 frontcourt guys could all be SFs, which could be bad


It should be

1 C/PF
1 PF/SF
2 SF/SG
1 PG

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I think it'll be PG/SG/SF/front court

 

[buzzy]
