The Official Week 1 'Lets get ready to laugh at the Knicks' Thread

[peternorth]

Why are we laughing at the Knicks? Perhaps laughing at the Cavs is more appropriate?

ALso, yay for PJ3 playing well!

who let you back in the building?

 

[peternorth]

Apparently that fan is no longer in the building. Flop/g City.

what a bunch of wanchors. disgraceful. probably didnt know that westy is a product of the local tertiary education institution.

 

[Dez!]

Looks like Westbook has a small fracture in his hand

That team is beyond screwed now.

No Durant, Westbrook, Lamb, Jackson, McGary, Morrow.

Why bother showing up for games until at least one comes back?

 

[peternorth]

Luc Longley years brah, that team belonged to Luc even before he got there.

i jumped on when anstey carried the team

 

[peternorth]

Cavs looked flat. Poor guys. At least Delly worked hard. They took way too long to shoot on that last possession too.

problem with these "super" teams. they dont know their roles. that's what made the laker dynasties so good. everyone knew their role, from shaq down to mike penberthy.

Good for my Blazers. We need to jump out to a nice division lead.

How far away is Durant? 5-6 weeks?

 

[jod23]

LeBron with 8 turnovers. Yikes. Watch for a big comeback game against my Bulls. They beat us in preseason so this should be interesting. Be nice to beat them and set down a marker.

It's been one game PN.

I rather suspect Northy's emphasis was on the second sentence in his post.

Given the current state of the Lakers we can hardly begrudge the poor guy some tenuous nostalgia.

 

[BG32]

geez the clippers are a bunch of campaigners

 

[Trent Conheady]

Maybe if we combine the thunder's team with the 76ers team now, we may be able to create an nba level rotation...
Anyone want to guess how long that westbrook would be out for? At least the lakers will have a crippled buddy giving them company at the bottom of the western conference for a while, at least until the thunder get some players back.
This may be karma for the thunder for wasting their picks in this years draft and constantly refusing to improve their team, except for signing Anthony morrow and Sebastian telfair, if you count that as an improvement.

 

[hayes]

Jeez you wouldn't want to fall too far behind in the West early. Suns won 48 games last year and didn't even make the playoffs.

Yeah look at the grizzlies last year, they lost gasol for about 4-6 weeks I think (correct me if I am wrong on the length of his absence) and they only just snaked their way into the playoffs.
I am greatful that I support a team in the eastern or should I say leastern conference.

 

[hayes]

Charles Barkley needs to commentate every game. Gold followed by more gold.

 

[Vincent Chase]

I'm starting up a Quincy Acy bandwagon. All welcome.

Thanks for the reminder!

One of the best names in the game, although Quincy Pondexter has him covered.

Gets bonus points for fresh beard style.

Where do I sign up, best beard in the association. Clearly surpassing James Harden

Reggie Evans and Quincy Acy fighting to the death.

 

[Renegade]

who are you?

Randy Spears

 

[Scully2Folau]

Miami Bulls?

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Klay Thompson agrees to a 4/70 deal.

Makes the Bledsoe deal look cheap!

So let me get this straight

They refused to entertain trading klay for love and then proceed to overpay him to the point of insanity

 

[stewie griffen]

Burks 4/42.... Hmm

Yeah it's bizarre. Team harmony factor?

Burks at 4/42 is surely overs?
