  1. Defense is complete trash. No adjustments in sight. Rose making horrible decisions and an embarrassingly flat 3 pointer.
  2. Why is Hansbrough breaking down our supposedly tough defense off the dribble
  3. I am going to start breaking things
  4. Horrible pass on the break by Rose there. What the [expletive]? Just go to the rim. And play some defense on these pukes christ
  5. Well Rose is getting into the lane whenever he wants. Kinda surprised Indiana isn't trapping him much outside the 3 point line. One sustained sequence of defensive stops and we should take control.
  6. Getting tired of the Pacers getting these offensive boards off of these jumpers barely scraping rim
  7. Korver you bitch
  8. imb and Skip Bayless have never been seen in the same room together
  9. I have my excuses, SSR has his Skip Bayless talking points.
  10. lol and after some googling I've learned that there was a rumor going around last year that Michael Jordan and Amy Mickelson were having sex and Phil walked in on them but that it was ok because Phil set it all up because the Mickelsons are apparently swingers
  11. "Amy" was 9 months pregnant when Mickelson was battling Payne Stewart for the 99 US Open (that Stewart won) and Phil famously said he'd walk off the course as soon as he got paged that his wife into labor. Mickelson ended up losing on the 72nd hole and was in contention the whole way pretty much. Some other players said off the record that they wished his wife went into labor while he was on the course because they thought Mickelson was full of [expletive]. There was an SI article about it years ago. Edit: And yeah, FIGJAM
  12. Deng is everywhere
  13. Anthony carter is still in the league?
  14. Sup sulleymans nice lebron post a cpl pages ago Bulls #1
  15. lol at knicks gimmick ball
  16. It was David Thorpe btw. His ballot went Wade-Howard-James-Bryant-Rose Another anti-Bulls loser. He got all butthurt because of the way the Bulls yanked Tyrus Thomas around.
  17. Howard finally expands his offensive game and his team gets appreciably worse mvp
  18. Also the NBA mvp is kinda a big deal imo. I couldn't tel you who was nfl mvp a few years ago (besides "randomly" picking brady or manning) but I can tell you who was nba mvp going back pretty far. Its a well marketed award.
  19. You're reflexively taking the position that these advanced metrics are always a better gauge of value than a little bit of stats and a little bit of the eye test. 1) Sometimes the model stinks (just because these stats are advanced compared to their precedecessors doesn't necessarily make them all that great; I think a lot of these numbers are getting the SABR treatment when they fall wayyyy short of them in actually quantifying value) 2) Even if the model doesn't stink it doesn't work the same way in all cases I mean if these metrics are enough to say Rose isn't a real MVP contender then why weren't the militant stat heads waving the Kevin Love for MVP banner earlier on? To me, that's just a tacit admission that their numbers can be misleading.
  20. Where did Scott bottom out in the world rankings? I coulda swore he was a complete after thought for awhile. Kinda like Dimarco is now.
  21. The Lakers sideline reporter is pretty crack whorey looking. Who does it for Blackhawks? Shee might be the hottest in the business. And yeah good game. No defense at all. Brooks finally is giving Ibaka real burn.
  22. Agreed on belly putters but Scott wasnt top 20 was he? I thought he firmly in bust territory as far as how good people thought he would be.
  23. TIGER ON THE PROWL etc
