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

Yeah I read something the other day about him leading the league in attempted long 2's by more than twice what the next guy (kg) was taking.

They need to trade him already, shoulda happened a couple years back when his stock was sky high and you guys were going no where.

So, I saw a report on twitter that david kahn was attending the game in.....portland! Dun dun DUN

love for aldridge c'mon do it

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

thibs said bulls even went over that play pre-game, but c's are "very good at it".

He was a portland beat writer. He's probably still a Blazers fan (helps explain the martell webster trade and the huge Batum offer).

he's awesome. All his problems are just even greater in Kevin Love and everyone loves that guy.

woulda been fun to see him play alongside Durant and Zach Randolph

Uh, LMA doesn't rebound or get to the free throw line?

8 rpg is fine, not a problem

it's nice to have a 20-10 guy, but a 22-8 guy who shoots 50% is pretty great too

They are pretty different imo but I would say that their overall value is about the same. I've always felt Love was pretty overrated, never got on the wagon.

Love is more than a 20-10 guy now isnt he?

he's a 26-13 guy!

I mean I just don't get why anyone would care that Aldridge shoots a lot of jumpers if he scores 22 ppg and shoots 50%. He's a really nice player and there's no reason to deal him imo.

it's not like he's Bargnani or something

He IS a nice player but he's in his prime and has value and they aren't contending or making the playoffs so rebuild. I just thought a year or two ago his perceived value around the league was higher than his worth. Trade high etc.

Eh, Portland's brass firmly believes that one more high draft pick + lillard + batum + Aldridge is a competing team, tha this will be a quick turn-around basically. Given that assumption dumping Aldridge doesn't make sense. But whether it works out is another story.

Illard balling out has been awesome to see so far.

Just want to give Keyon a big hug after watching all of this:

Seriously, the dude is not a winner. How can you not take teams led by Al Jefferson and Jonny Flynn in '09 / Ridnour and Beas in '10 str8 to the NBA Finals?

xp i don't know why you posted a proboscis monkey, but i approve

thanks

idk either

maybe just the way im looking at the arguments

hit me up when Lebron wins a championship with a Darko/Luke Ridnour/Micheal Beasley/Wes Johnson starting lineup

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWSJcJ7KLbA

pretty sure he's won nba games, don't know how exactly to hit you up tho

what? jessica alba is a clippers fan? am i dreaming?

Lebron took some extremely crap rosters deep into the playoffs.

ok i will defer kevin love is not the single most talented basketball player of the last 20 years

but seriously i don't know what else the guy can do, watch him night in and night out and he's just a great player

26.0 PPG
13.3 RPG

last year

I never said he wasn't a good/great player, just overrated is all. I would like to be proven wrong though, I like the Wolves roster w Rubio healthy.
