got hot at the wrong time, shit =\

 

[Hurricane Season]

How do you get hot at the wrong time?  I don't think success correlates with injuries, just some freak occurrences. (in this case)
 
There's never a wrong time to get hot though, IMO.

It's better to be peaking nowtime than the beginning of the year


Look at the beginning parts of the season. You'd be foolish to not say LAC was the favorite to come out of the West... Now they might be R1 bounce

 

[buzzy]

The season is just too long. I know the amount of games probably don't correlate with freak accidents, but I wanna say that they do.

Fucken big playoff runs keep getting stopped before they even start.

 

[Hurricane Season]

I don't think it really matters how teams are perceived by fans that early in the season. That's irrelevant. The playoffs don't start in December. That being said, a team is still better off at the end of the season for having that 15 game winning streak earlier in the year. That could be the difference between a 3 seed and a 7 seed. That's why I say there's never a wrong time to get hot.
 
"Peaking" and "getting hot" are two different things, though.

I'm interested in seeing what Wilson Chandler can do with an extended role.

you dont want to hit a hot streak and cool down too late. youre bound to cool down, why want to cool down going into the playoffs?

AD just faced Millsap up and took him to the rim and then on the next possession he took him into the post and hit a hook shot.
 
Me happy

 

[Mexi]

Come on man, atleast be objective.
 
Kobe is averaging more points, more rebounds, more assists, shooting a better percentage, and has been a much better defender.

 

[snipezo]

biggest harden fan boy lol.

 

[buzzy]

Wade would deserve it over Harden
