The Official 2014 Non-Playoffs/Off Season Thread

See, this was Mead's problem - he could never lay his theories out in a coherent, non-combative manner.

Zach Lowe gets so much love that it's almost at the over-hype stage, but his latest article is well worth a read for the subject matter as much as anything

See, this was Mead's problem - he could never lay his theories out in a coherent, non-combative manner.

I enjoy his articles, but his comments section just gets worse and worse. Instead of discussing the topic at hand, everybody now tries to outdo each other in writing crazy love letters to Zach.

Though I guess that is better most comment sections everywhere else.

zachs analysis was thorough and well written. one criticism if i may.

Splitter and Duncan protect the rim, and Boris Diaw has become a good enough 3-point shooter to earn respect from defenses.1

see the number 1 (a notation). To the right of the article lies a statement explaining or adding to the point he is making. why not simply put that expansion into the article itself?

becky hammon hired by the spurs to be a full time assistant.

becky has enjoyed a marvellous wnba and international career. unfortunately she has received many threats stemming from her decision to play for russia. with international relation tensions high currently, her hiring could go a long way to easing trans pacific angst.

on the flip side, of course being in texas, she may continue to be on the end of some less than positive comments.

i have always found becky cute.

Meady is too busy with Israel to give his thoughts on Houston

isnt it interesting that scribes and others in USA are demanding that Team USA be a 21 and under team?

if that happened those teams would be smashed. then usa would complain.

And if anything it makes things worse if a young kid gets a serious injury.

They have little money in the bank compared to the big boys playing now.

Yeah thought the same, I'm not saying either one is really better but seems abit dark to think it's no problem, or not as much of a problem, if some kid ruins his career before it even really starts. At least all these guys are stars or above in the league and have made some decent coin already. The only people who would be content with this would be the team owners & gm's.

i heard that PG is gonna buy himself a nice ride (car) to cheer himself up.

probably not the best thing to purchase given his broken leg.

but yeah, imagine a college freshman struggling through uni with fees, books, college girls, working part time to support themselves. and then suffering a long term injury

Anyone read David Aldridge's off-season rankings?

http://www.nba.com/2014/news/featur...g-tip-2014-offseason-grades-top-10/index.html

I'm not going to pretend I understand his rationale for ranking the Pels as one of the worst

If you only ever saw LJ play for the Knicks, you'd have trouble believing he was once the same guy flying about in this clip.

Ugh, once upon a time we were supposed to be the team of the 90s, kinda like The Simpsons or Seinfeld. Instead we ended up more like Dinosaurs.

Looks like a cheesy tv host
