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

such minimal expectations it doesn't even warrant an "a" towards the end.

Honest question: should I watch the second half of this Celtics game or edit the podcast I need to edit? I don't have time for both tonight.

well, if they win, there will be no suspense, if they blow it, you will be angry you watched.

meyers has the tools and raw ability, plus he applies himself and works like the devil, so he's learning the position about as fast as he can. he's def not thabeet redivivus. his minutes are directly tied to how inexperienced the blazer bench is, tho.

courtney lee is playing a really nice game despite unexciting stats

Leonard's stats are really good too; he doesn't turn it over he shoots a good percentage and he blocks shots, all you can ask for at this point really

close portland watchers might tell me differently but it seems like that team is so thin off the bench that they're just letting him figure it out in the majors

I've been posting the team's bench points numbers when I remember or when it jumps out at me. I was def at a game where the first bench score came halfway through the third. It's woeful.

In other news these teams' unis really getting me in the spirit of the season.

I'm going to try leaving the game on but muted. I'm sure it'll crash my computer eventually but until then I can keep an eye on one thing and an ear on the other.

clay they scored 3 bench points in the first half of tonite's game

Yeah that seems about right.

"The result here is dictated by the totality of facts in this case. The Spurs decided to make four of their top players unavailable for an early-season game that was the team's only regular season visit to Miami. The team also did this without informing the Heat, the media, or the league office in a timely way. Under these circumstances, I have concluded that the Spurs did a disservice to the league and our fans"

that statement is just so patently ridiculous

9 blocks for Sanders with 9 minutes left

the thing that's been driving me crazy--i know all sorts of stuff goes into making the schedule and it's probably really hard--but maybe don't schedule big national tv games to be the 4th game in 5 nights for anyone!

^

some of that is probably a function of only putting 10 or 11 games on national TV ever

10 or 11 teams

its funny because they shouldve known pop was gonna do this, also if you want a sweet marquee matchup the game will be better if both teams are rested

also spurs are historically national tv kyptonite

"im so excited for that spurs game on tnt tonight" - nobody in america ever

I love watching the spurs. :(

not gonna say "nice win" for the c's but sullinger, terry, green, lee all played really well. smart, efficient basketball.

lol @ scal's postgame chat with kg

scal is as good at broadcasting as he is at basketball

any win for the celtics this year is a nice win

they have a winning record!

Alexey Shved makes Toni Kukoc look like a gritty hustle player

10 blocks for Larry Sanders Show

ties the Bucks team record set by Kareem!

hey now xpost

sanders gets a block-rebound-points triple double

jesus what a monster

zach lowe's gonna freak

memphis & detroit scored a combined 26 points in the fourth quarter tonight

awww yeah nuggz-lakers, the official matchup of ILH pretty much

I was able to watch 2 possessions in that detroit-memphis game, one of which was just stuckey stumbling around getting swatted by Gasol twice

pumped for this game

awww yeah nuggz-lakers, the official matchup of ILH pretty much
