  1. Um, Marvin Williams has averaged 31.2 minutes a game in his 5.5 NBA seasons. Not a rotation player?
  2. Zero doubt in my mind one of those Walton/Jabbar UCLA teams could've owned the bad NBA teams of the early 70s. This isn't football. One transcendent talent makes a huge, huge difference. Only the confines of college basketball stopped Jordan...not the other guys on the floor as evidenced by him being a 19ppg in college to rampaging the league the next season. You put a 21 year old MJ when he was playing with Sam Perkins, Kenny Smith, and Brad Daugherty up against a horrible NBA team of the mid 80s and they'd get waxed by 30? I don't see it.
  3. This I don't necessarily agree with. I honestly think there have been quite a few college teams over the years that could beat this Cleveland team especially when they were without Sideshow Bob and Mo Williams. The college 3 point line neuters the one on one game a lot because everyone is so packed in. You put a team like the Fab 5 or a guy like a 21-22 year old Lebron or Durant on a decent college team against a bad NBA team using NBA rules and I think they could take them. Any player in an NBA rotation would star on the best college teams in the country. It would be no contest. Cleveland would win by 30+. A star? Marvin Williams was just a guy on UNC and got drafted #2 overall. You put Rose, King, Jackson, Howard, and Webber up against the 91 TWolves and you've got a game on your hands. When Jabbar was a freshman at UCLA he beat the defending national champion varsity team basically by himself. I don't think it's a stretch to say you put a talent like that on a good college team they could beat a bad NBA team. There have certainly been college teams over the years with more star power than certain drecks of the NBA.

  5. lol the Cavs beat the Knicks again. And the Spurs are just no lubing Miami.
  6. JESUS [expletive] CHRIST BOOZER JUST KICK IT OUT [expletive]
  7. Asik's a monster.
  8. I too would like us to see Rose and CJ on the floor at the same time more (e.g. at all).
  9. Cool we've stopped scoring at all again.
  10. Boozer's pissing me off.
  11. Good half, don't blow it.
  12. Beat Miami and all is forgiven
  13. Horford is really good. We should get him.
  14. Yes they do not these games. we suck ass the refs certainly didn't help but you can't make horford look invincible. These are the sorts of games you lose when you have a psychotic defensive obsessed coach. Don't get me wrong Thibs is really good but you can't win ugly all the time. Now Thibs is psychotic? What the hell? It was just one game. In a good way. He doesnt give you a Skiles vibe a bit? Look at the SI article posted earlier...he sure doesnt sound like an easy guy to play for.

  21. These pukes won't go away
