NBA Regular Season Discussion Thread

that was one of the worst shots I have ever seen just now by Mozgov.... Amar'e showed him how it's done.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

hes cleaning up the glass too. and you cant really say hes a scrub, i mean he isnt good but still. the dude doesnt get time. maybe he is decent.

our paint control is in the trash though.

Well the thing is he's young and a raw talent. I was reading somewhere a few weeks ago that this was sort of D'Antoni's plan -- he wanted the kid to be on the bench and improve through practices and w/e, and they'd start to "introduce" him to more playing time in the 2nd half -- which is good, because they're a little undersized and struggle at grabbing the boards sometime -- and if Mozgov continues to play like this and improves this year and next year, that's a big gap filled for us.


Fuck Marc Gasol, we don't need to trade for him...

 

[Pugz]

lol. the dude has 23 and 14. thats crazy.

now the crowd is chanting "mozgov". lol


im happy new york got the dubayou though. fuck this pistons squad. we're trash

 

[RipCity32]

He's started 9 games this year, and was benched for Turiaf cause he sucked I believe.
We do this all the time, make scrubs look amazing.

 

[Pugz]

btw, you cant trade for marc

 

[RipCity32]

Mozgov played Russian pro ball for a while. He isn't that raw lol.

 

[Pugz]

raw in the nba yea, but hes like an 8 year pro. lol. he knows the pro game.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

good I dont want to trade for Marc -- all I know is his name's been tossed around a lot lately.


And as for Mozgov, i just looked at his game logs this year on ESPN, before tonight he played 20+ minutes just once this season, and that was 23 minutes in November against the bucks.

His only real issue, which is why he hasn't gotten a lot of playing time, is he turns the ball over quite frequently.

you know what I fuckin mean, haha.

 

[RipCity32]

Greg Monroe >
15 and 17.

It's like insulting the fact he doesn't get the ball more.

Anyone see the ending of the Hornets-Suns game tonight?

SMFH

Game should have gone to overtime but refs missed a OBVIOUS goaltend with 3 or so seconds left. Pathetic, that's what those fucks get paid for????

 

[cruzg24]

Knicks win today! That makes me happy.

Happy the Lakers got beat down.

Awesome win by the Suns. The Hornets cry more for calls than any team so far this year. I've watched several games and each one involves way too much whining.

12 seconds to play Frye was called for a foul on a Chris Paul flop. Paul purposely throws his shooting hand straight down onto his shoulder and falls to the ground for no reason and the ref bought that shit like a fucking blue light sale at K-Mart. Terrible call especially with 12 seconds to play. The only thing I see there is that might have been a make-up call because Grant Hill goal-tended right before that.

Hornets gave themselves chances to win the game and they didn't do it so stop crying. Last month the Celtics took the lead on the Spurs in Boston, and on the ensuing possession Manu drove the line and was clearly fouled and did not get the call, and the Spurs didn't whine that bad. Even the replay showed a clear foul that ESPN even noted as it not being called on SportsCenter.

Ugh. Just play fucking ball.

 

[Mexi]

not posting this for the dunk. dunk was good, but basic. no news there

perfect pass by Foye
and look where blake is when the play starts. he's under the other basket, then sprints. nice all around play

 

[Pugz]

that pass is nuts. its spot on

Ironic that this is coming from a Tim Duncan fan. That guys like the Tom Brady of the NBA.

In the NBA you take all the wins you can get, and being ripped of a overtime and potential win hurts. Any team would have "whined" in that situation. It was a legit beef with the refs that missed the obvious call. Just look at the Suns reaction, they were just as lost as the Hornets were.

Everyone complains to the refs in the NBA. Some more than others.

You can say TP looks for a foul a lot because he does and like I squashed the previous discussion ranks around 50 in getting fouls called for him. Among the last couple of the starting PG's. You can say Manu cries and flops because well, he does.

But Tim Duncan? How am I to seriously debate any subject with you if you truly believe that? Are you just upset about the 7 game series you guys lost a while back? Or what?

Duncan is one of the quietest player in the damn league bro. The most he does is throw his hands to the side like in that picture and if he is near a ref of course he'll say something but as compared to the average NBA star you honestly think he is even in the upper half in complaining is just retarded.

I have seen Duncan play in person so many times man. From personal experience to common knowledge amongst the NBA and its player TD is a quiet guy. Not one person other than a butt hurt one after a lost would say this.

Every player has their tiff but Duncan's is not complaining to refs man. There are more Duncan haters than respecters [not saying you are] and of course everyone will hate but damn.

As for the Hornets/Suns game. No the Hornets had no legit anything. And it looked to me like the Suns just looked at the Hornets player having a meltdown and walked away.

 

[Brutalis]

That's like saying Durant is the biggest shit talker in the NBA just cause of last night. Gheeez.

 

[$tunna]

Mike Conley is swaggin right now

 

[Elite]

Cleveland shitted on again by Miami, I love it.

What was really funny was when they thought they could make the playoffs without him.
