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

wow i totally missed on sunday that the pistons beat the celtics by 20, what in god's name

yeah heard in the second half they were basically just trying to pad rondo's assist line

some of rondo's "assists" were pretty questionable too

That's on the Piston's scorekeeper. You'd expect some padding at home but not on the road.

celtics travelled to detroit for their 4th game in 5 days and didn't really feel like playing iirc

well that makes sense

soooooooooo

sad lmao

wowwwww

It's a well done speculative piece based on limited information, but if true quite funny.

even if he's not out for the season it's hard to imagine him playing more than a few months

bynum's free agency next year will be like the josh hamilton of basketball. so many risks and ways to blow your money, and yet someone will almost definitely max him out.

that I agree with. He has no record of healing quickly or well, or that he wants to come back before he's 100%.

cannot keep up with this goddam thread but

what a deeply weird video

He was actually getting a peak at his future.

what did the 76ers give up for bynum? seems like since neither dwight nor bynum got extended this deal wasnt as titanic as it could have been..

also looks like maybe orlando should have taken brook lopez since he's kinda trying to play defense this season. he looked good against the lakers last night.

iggy

yeah if the deal results in them merely dumping iggy's salary i guess it's not the worst outcome in the world

they also gave up moe harkless who is actually playing pretty well so far this year

bynum's totally better than iggy when healthy too, such a shame

bynum is a vv good player, had he stayed healthy philly made out like bandits, of course his injury history was factored into the trade

yeah he's a terrible third option on defense

lol

bynum is the new oden

i wouldn't wish that fate on anyone, including greg, tbh

At least Greg isn't an amoral scumbag

lol wut

After the episode aired, Oakley put Salley in the hot seat, pressuring the Spider to repeat himself in front of Jordan, Dave Chappelle and Chris Tucker at the Kentucky Derby. "Oakley says to me, 'ok, your boy's right here. Say it, who's better? Kobe or Michael at 24." Salley turned to His Airness and said, "Kobe would have eaten your lunch." Bam. Salley got hit again, but this time it wasn't the media doing the fighting. "Oakley punched me in the stomach. I didn't even see him coming."

“In a lot of ways,” Thibodeau said, “he is like Yao Ming.”

“Very, very bright,” Thibodeau said of his former big men. “(Asik) has size, intelligence, great feet, drive and a willingness play for the team. He reacts quickly, anticipates, and he’s relentless. He’s a multiple effort guy. He’s a 7-footer, smart, driven. He will get better.”

“O’s the best defensive center I’ve been around since I’ve been in the NBA,” Rockets acting head coach Kelvin Sampson said. “When Andrew Bogut was healthy, he was special, too, but I would put Big O in his class, and that’s a big compliment to Big O because I thought Bogut was a great defensive center.”

“It was easier for me because I came to a team that was defensive-minded,” Asik said. “Offense at the beginning was a little tough. I’m really thankful to the Bulls organization and coach Tibs. They gave me a start to the NBA, and it was such a good team. I learned a lot from them, especially coach Tibs. He just helped me a lot.”
