Yeah Westduck looked like he never left. Thought he finished at the rim well. I wish all star point guards coming off knee injuries could do that...

Re: NBA Thread
Clippers are looking sharp (minus their game last Tuesday). To the surprise of no one the Rockets perimeter defense is atrocious.

Guys, I'm worried the Bulls suck. I'm seeing a lot of flaws that probably aren't going anyway...

Re: NBA Thread
The Lakers fascinate me so far. Also, James Harden needs to at least try on defense before I can even consider him a top 10 player in the league.

their bench is scoring a TON of points. i dont recall them every being this good (so far). the only way it would have been better is if it had been a home gameMonkey_Driven wrote:The Lakers fascinate me so far.

Re: NBA Thread
I just feel like the entire team (outside of Gasol and Nash) are role players or fringe rotation guys who've never really had much of a shot. The big lights and lack of any expectations are letting them loose. They'll probably finish around .500 but they're going to beat some very good teams when they get hot from deep.Peeps wrote:their bench is scoring a TON of points. i dont recall them every being this good (so far). the only way it would have been better is if it had been a home gameMonkey_Driven wrote:The Lakers fascinate me so far.

Re: NBA Thread
I get to watch Rose get murdered by Kyrie Irving in person Monday
Good God the Jazz are bad by the way. They aren't even trying to hide how hard they are tanking this season...

Re: NBA Thread
Yeah, nobody stood out. Dunleavy was hot in the 2nd half, I guess....which was shocking. Irving didn't do shit until garbage time, not good for him the in a funk Derrick got the best of him.gems and rhinestones wrote:verb_to_trust wrote:First Bulls game of the year tonight.

I know it's a small sample, but I gotta mention it while its still true. LeBron is shooting over 60% from the field and over 50% from 3.
