I totally agree. I used to get so so angry. Its almost comforting that the Bulls suck again.4/5 wrote:My friend (a Heat fan) just texted me, "remember fun Heat-Bulls used to be?"
Not really, those games were infuriating.

We both know LeBron was the best player in 2010-11 but the media was just punishing him.

He deserved to be punished. Rose got the you blew out your knees now we're going to mock you payback. It all evened out.4/5 wrote:We both know LeBron was the best player in 2010-11 but the media was just punishing him.

Re: NBA Thread
I understand the punishment. I won't argue with that. But the further we get removed from if the more Rose's MVP over LeBron is a joke. He should have won 5 MVPs in a row. But he left us high and dry so forget him.verb_to_trust wrote:He deserved to be punished. Rose got the you blew out your knees now we're going to mock you payback.

Its Westbrook with 11 back in November. Mudiay had 11 too in October. Kidd has the record since 1983 with 14.

look at all of those terrible players!
again, all it means is a guy is handling the ball a lot for his team, and is one of the focal points of the offense.

Westbrook is 19th on the list already with 2116. He's pretty young compared to a lot of the old timers at the top.

I wouldn't expect a cheese eating cow fucker from Wisconsin to have a real firm understanding of the game. T2b is right to hate on Westbrook as much as he does even if he does go overboard sometimes.spike wrote:verb_to_trust wrote:Westbrook is 19th on the list already with 2116.

Re: NBA Thread
Westbrook is second in the league in TOs and has an assist to TO ratio of 2.45. And OKC ranks in bottom 10 for TOs. Turnovers are their biggest problem.
2.45 isn't terrible, but it's not great. And I don't have the breakdown, but I'd guess between 40 to 50 percent of his turnovers are in the 4th quarter, which is why OKC leads the league in 4th quarter chokes this year.
Also, Chris Paul, Rondo, Rubio and Parker/Mills (among others) all handle the ball just as much as Russ and have considerably higher assist to TO ratios.
