MVP chants for Kobe. shoot me

there was a missed 3 in the key call with like a minute left. i think the lakers were up 1 and they had just been up double digits. hornets stormed back

and then earl clark was in the paint for literally 8 seconds, ends up getting a layup. ended up kiling momentum, they dont score, nash hits a 3. ball game

Yeah that's when Monty went out to halfcourt. Fox Sports New Orleans did a time count on a few possessions early in the game and Dwight was in the paint for literally 9 seconds in the first quarter at one point.

LIndsey HUnter save me

NAsh's first game in PHX tomorrow

 

[bosoxlover12]

yes, but lets not act like these teams dont want it

I think that unless you've just recently revamped your roster significantly, you need to try to win in order to keep your job. Like idk how well Kyrie is playing, Byron might not keep his job because the Cavs aren't winning. I just think the Pistons are stupid, because they shouldn't be out winning, they are like 1 of 4 teams that can tank and get away with it.

i think its more about not being fired than making a playoff spot. A hard earned 10 seed is probably fine for some of these teams.

aaaaaaaand, here's kobe hunting for assists
he's so funny

with rondo out, someone's gotta be a statsheet padder

 

[elcheato]

The Cavs have kept the course of a rebuild, haven't made reactionary moves and have been patient. It's pretty nice.

This was an amazing game...

These next 2-3 weeks are going to be so long.

 

[RipCity32]

Might've gotten killed, but Dre getting 18-18 is quite nice.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

So how long will Kobe's assist phase last?

 

[bosoxlover12]

Pau hit the jackpot last night

7 points
7 boards
7 dimes

It will be over their next loss lol

Nooo, the obvious here is that I obviously have no clue why a ref would let Dwight Howard camp out in the lane repeatedly.

because the refs suck. what i meant by obvious is you complain about the refs every day.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Not everyday lol, but mostly it's warranted. Though I also think it's not completely on the refs, some of the rules are bad. That charge call when a player is in mid air is one of the worst calls in sports. It's the right call but it's still terrible.

I thought the officiating was fine last night, aside from letting Dwight camp out in the lane.

 

[Elite]

Is Reggie Evans dumb or stupid?

How many times has tugging on Superman's cape worked out well?

 

[buzzy]

This was an amazing game...

These next 2-3 weeks are going to be so long.

how close do you think is he gonna come to 35 minutes a game, like some weeks in?

 

[Hurricane Season]

I imagine he'll be on a strict minutes restriction for the first few weeks, maybe a month. He probably won't consistently see 35 minutes until it gets closer to playoff time.

 

[Mexi]

i really dont like seeing #3 and #10 on the pistons court

they let stuckey have 3 when Ben left to Chicago. lame from the get go
and how the hell could you let 10 be given out? you knew Dennis would be in the hall potentially
i know he gave permission to monroe, but i just dont like it

 

[RipCity32]

Meh. You get used to it as a Piston fan. Don't think anyone cares lol.

 

[RipCity32]

This trade should just allow us to start Drummond too. Literally no longer any reason not to.

 

[RipCity32]

So glad Jonas is back in the rotation.
