I just looked at Austin Rivers stats so far this year... GAAAAAAAAHHHHHH NOOOOO. What is going on with him?
John Hollinger (12:27 PM)

My big worries about Rivers were that he didn't have the athleticism to cut it in the NBA as a slasher, and that he wasn't a good enough shooter to make up for it. That seems to be the case so far. But that said, keep in mind that there's a long history in this league of rookie guards getting absolutely slaughtered, before emerging in year 2 as a real basketball player.

Javale goes 9-9 with 20 and 8 but he has one bad turnover so lol look at this gif smh

man you are just insanely sensitive about this guy, it's very weird. it's just a gif!

which one to gif hmm

great celtics defense, jeff green finding his niche ..... COME BACK, AVERY!!!

hmm i'd gif the one that doesn't involve dunking over a shitty backup big man

yeah so many guys would have totally blocked that

I remember when Griffin dunked on Mozgov and I was like "wait a minute, is the defender good enough for it to be a gif?"

kobe assist there by jet

The Warriors are pretty fun this year! They're winning even without Bogut.

stephen curry has got like 4 consecutive 20+/10+ games

damn rondo had a pretty good look for the win

matt you're being a huge weirdo! javale will always have a reputation for being a knucklehead, it's okay. he rides segways around denver, i think everyone's cool about it!

the world needs knuckleheads imo

kobe assists are very common

otm and the nba gets the best ones imo
xp re knuckleheads

that javale gif is hilarious

if Javale's successes weren't treated like this:

hmm i'd gif the one that doesn't involve dunking over a shitty backup big man

maybe I'd feel better about the scrutiny applied to every mistake he made. And maybe George Karl wouldn't bench him every time he made one.

christ matt i'm just giving you shit, that's not what i actually think

I mean I watched the whole game and McGee was 9-9 with like 5 dunks, a sick coast to coast layin and the thing that gets gif'd is literally the only mistake he made all game, it's an obnoxious double standard that's applied to this guy

evan turner attempted all 76ers-FG in overtime?

i don't know why you need to think you need to sell him being good, we all know he's good xp

the sixers stopped playing offense about 20 minutes ago but they're still going to win

i don't know why you need to think you need to sell him being good, we all know he's good xp

"most nba fans" do not post in this thread matt.

also i'm pretty sure george karl doesn't read ilx but my apologies if he does and your messages are getting through.

why did kg give up a 12ft turn around to pass to rondo who slipped

also evan turner starting to look like a real basketball player the last few weeks

this year's celtics summarized in one play xp

like wtf is this shit:

Haralabos Voulgaris ‏@haralabob
Javale McGee just took it end to end in traffic and finger rolled it in. That was actually nice.

who cares?? it's a gif! you sound like a jets fan defending mark sanchez in 2009

i watched the hawks/nuggs game on the plane with my javale-skeptic friend and was very dismayed that he struggled :(

matt's javale crush is so cute

spurs are owning the rockets right now. tiago just threw a behind the back pass into traffic for a TO.

30/23/6/2/2 for joakim tonight btw

holy hell

spurs lineup is all foreigners right now
xp lmao JOAKIM!

did joakim and andy v. get on the same drug regimen or something? feel like both those dudes have had a bunch of huge games this year.

btw the best way to say JOAKIM is like when ice cubes (actor) mom is yelling "OSHEA!" at him in that intro to giving up the nappy dugout

huge sanders block
