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

ridnour-shved-kirilenko-amundson-pekovic

its shocking just how white twolves are and they're even missing two of their best wites

tbf pekovic is really a half-orc

Shved should just be the starting two from now on, much better than Mummy Roy

al jefferson threw in a three to go to OT

not to mention that chase budinger and stiemsma are literally the two whitest whites in the league

i heard we put in an offer sheet on powder

Jazz-Raptors pumping up fantasy stats across the nation

harden really should be in the upper 80s in FT%, why does he miss so many

jazz and raptors tied again! 8 seconds left in 2OT

3OT

Doc is damn good at late game play calling. Easy oop for KG out of a timeout.

this crazed houston fan is dressed either like a biker or a pirate, i can't tell, and is holding a doll of jeremy lin as a vampire with long hair

what am i missing here?

good game in houston btw

good lord lebron from the parking lot

miami has bosh on harden and harden is just ABUSING him

Rondo is good.

two straight ridiculous passes to open three point shooters after busting bosh bad off the dribble

Just switched over to Houston and caught that bs foul on Morris.

lebron has gone absolutely insane for 32 points in the second half

lin just airballed a wide open 3

Oof. Ran a great play and that was a complete whiff.

cool play houston

lebron is so far above every other player in the nba it's not even funny

i think he's been blatantly not trying for halves at a time this year but when he really wants to dominate it's just game over

wtf AK

god, derrick williams

does league pass have a good mobile player? or one at all?

i tried using it tonight and it was framey as hell

ugh. the one great thing about mlb.tv is that the mobile app was perfect on wifi.

collison kinda spoiling his great game at the end

can you watch replays on demand on your computer?

I think so

the mobile player comes with the cable/broadband package or you can just buy it on its own. i like it - picture was pretty great on my iphone last year iirc. main issue is not being able to see full stats during games without exiting the game and pretty shitty pause/rewind etc (there's a -30 seconds button that goes back in 30 second increments but it'd be nice if you could just drag a thing on the bottom of the screen like with broadband)

not blacked out games, amazingly

essentially i just want to be able to watch games with a good picture on my phone so i'm not hogging the TV or tying up my computer

unreal stats

Tim Reynolds ‏@ByTimReynolds
Updating a stat: LeBron has gone 38, 10 and 6 a total of 26 times, including playoffs. The rest of NBA since he arrived: Also 26 times.

I think the wolves will be fine; kirilenko looks great and he's better at the 4 now anyway.

i would recommend it then. last season the picture was great but i tried it once this year and it kinda sucked. not sure what to make of that. let me try it now. it's like 30 bucks a month or something

& also pull up games in the afternoon if i miss them at night

you can do that with your phone too

but again you don't get games that were blacked out which is ridiculous

picture's fine on my phone now

go wolves!

oh shit, faried down hard

he's really dazed :(

phoenix's arena is seriously depressing

lawson thinks he's chris paul or something

damn the nuggs really just lost to the suns

phoenix's arena is seriously depressing

It's really old too, needs to be updated inside so badly.

Side note: our neighbors directly behind us have been season ticket holders for yeeeears and are in their mid 80s. All orange apparel hanging from their clothesline all the time, bumper stickers, flags, the works. I think they even have the mascot ape guy over to dinner once in a while. He's taken me to a couple games when his wife couldn't go, awesome people and way passionate about it all. Talked to them a couple weeks before the season started and they were like visibly pissed off about Sarver not making an offer to Grant or Steve. They just couldn't understand it, like Sarver just walked into their house and stole their only child or something. They decided no to re-up their tickets this year and seemed really depressed about it. It was obv the right choice to part ways w Nash/Hill but I just completely forget how invested people get in certain players and what they bring to the community beyond basketball. Part of me wanted to be like uh yeah they shoulda traded Nash two years ago but they may have never talked to me again.
