The Official NBA Week 5 Thread

Yeah, I'm starting to get sick of these ****ing Euro scrubs. First Kleiza puts a hard foul on Rondo, out for two games (maybe more?) with a wrist injury. Now Vesely puts Allen down twice on illegal screens, and he won't return to the game with an ankle injury. No wonder KG doesn't like ****ing Euros.

Correct, as long as they're not a Euro scrub.

Sorry brah, had to steal your weekly thread thunder when I saw Allen was injured. I mad.

Subbing in. Clips doing a number on the Raps early.

Why can't teams work out zones...... it's strange.

i think the A is entrenched in traditional traits of their game. namely

- man to man
- traveling
- moving screens
- lack of D
- looking good first, winning second

Doesn't Garnett take care of the Euros with bouncing?

 

[Primetime Pricey]

May as well watch the NFL playoffs mate.

Watching Lebron in Monster mode (as he is lately) is always fun.

This talk of his play fading actually refers to his taking care of Euros and not his stats; hence the increase in Euros injuring Celtics.

 

[WALL-e]

The increase in European play in the NBA has a direct reverse correlation to the amount of bouncing in the NBA?

Yep, they've unfortunately developed a mob mentality, thus making bouncing without consequence more difficult. Although, if a Euro was to go at someone they'd probably just flop before they were able to make contact anyway.

I pray to Stern every night that Bogut gets traded

 

[WALL-e]

Bogut deserves to be traded,

Yeah I just can't stand watching the Bucks.... Brandon Jennings is just plain frustrating to watch.

Amen to the trade Bogut brigade

Shows you how little depth there is in the East. Bucks will be in the race for the eighth seed. Wouldn't get close in the West.

There hasn't been any depth in the East for the best part of 15 years

May as well hand out the division titles to Chitown and Philly right now

 

[peternorth]

bogut could buy the nbl and play in it. would improve it a lot.

j/k

 

[stewie griffen]

Norris Cole has come back down to earth with a thud lately, shooting 37% in his last 10, and is looking even worse today

 

[stewie griffen]

Thats 2 BS calls on Bogut against Lebone....

 

[stewie griffen]

Poor Lebrone missed the easy layin...... thats curtains

 

[hamG]

So the Bucks shoot 35% and beat the Heat.

Time to blow up the Heat? Wade by himself > Lebron + Bosh heh heh.
