yeah, i'm talkin dwight / yeah, i'm talkin steve: 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (part 1)

oh there definitely will be

the problem is that every player on the suns besides those four is irrepressibly awful

wes johnson is truly the worst player in the history of the NFL... he shot a jumper from the top of the key in this game and hit nothing but backboard

errrr NBA

He's such a crap basketball player he should've been a tight end like Antonio Gates.

Kirilenko looks so good. What a strange career/player.

no set of back to back top 6 pick disasters can compare to the Wes Johnson/Jonny Flynn combo. Childress/Marvin Williams is way better.

again though it's just not possible to be an all-time bad team if you have several good players, even with an awful bench. look at the bobcats last year and the suns this year. the cavs of a couple years ago had like, mo williams and antawn as their best players?

I watched the suns vs. the warriors and it was pretty ugly. Warriors got bored by how bad the suns were.

Man Kevin Martin is killing it for the thunders

for reference, the suns got massacred by THE MAGIC tonight

i for one am shocked to find out that a "week to week leg fracture" doesn't actually exist

Mike_Bresnahan: Steve Nash could miss up to four weeks with the small fracture in his left leg, a Lakers source said.

obviously the commentator is a douchenozzle but man this is damning stuff:

westbrook 5-17, 12 points. Martin 8-11, 28 points.

westbrook also just made a ridiculously boneheaded play saving the ball under his own basket and throwing it right to al horford for a dunk

guy isn't even really that bad; what a brutal breakdown for russ

Jonny Flynn signs with a team in Australia

better than turkey imo

where would an all-time current syracuse squad do vs other colleges if carmelo had to play with johnny flynn, wes johnson and fab melo? i guess they'd have waiters

Cant think of a team I'm less interested in than the Pistons.

they should play drummond 40 minutes a night just so they're somewhat interesting

yeah the pistons are just depressing as hell

monroe is okay in a pinch

is it just me or is there already a lot less flopping?

noticed that too, knock on wood

Was gonna say, then I submitted myself to watching Chris Paul and Blake Griffin last night.

I haven't seen them go all out yet though

Kyle Singler is +4 in 17 minutes and Tayshaun Prince is -40 in 24 minutes

(they're losing by 36)

pistons announcers are kinda pumped right now

oh shit they were losing by 26 sry

mike brown def needs to bring kobe -- who is in a walking boot -- into the game w/ 9 mins left and LA up 24

Yea true, agree that things look much better in the flopping department.

wow drummond

i guess i'm not shocked that drummond almost separated his shoulder on a ridiculous putback dunk attempt

Why did they not trade Prince years back when he had value?

Is mike brown for real

Literally every single nba team wanted prince 7 years ago.

They re-signed Prince several years after he was worth anything. Loyalty is cool and all, but Dumars fucked up that franchise so bad.

man the knicks this year = "Who's on my team again?"

so many lineup changes

like who's left from pre-Melo other than Felton (who left and came back) and Stoudemire, who doesn't even go back very far. And with all the vets it will probably be a whole new organization again in a few years

what if demar derozan is actually good

@Dame_Lillard: Mitch Richmond just called me Willard like 4 times on nba tv . Wow

Lol.

Demar is ballin out so far xp.

lol

Hey Kev are the Nuggets your #1 team?

who the hell is allen anderson

also kevin martin had 28 pts, one rebound, no assists, four turnovers

watching these raptors games... if you're the thunder and you're still trading harden, would you rather have kyle lowry or kevin martin and toronto's reverse-protected pick

I feel like the raptors are kinda on the razor's edge of being bad or good, it's weird
