the lakers have just pooped their big-boy pants: 2012-2013 NBA regular season thread (part 2)

woj:
After surgery last month, Roy had returned to Minnesota practice before issues with knees forced him to step away again in past 48 hours.

RETIRE, B

New Orleans has activated guard Eric Gordon.

we'll see how that works out.

Considering a wet fart in a shirt would be better than Rivers he has no pressure on him at all.

Turkoglu is a fat mess

Jerry Zgoda ‏@JerryZgoda

Kahn said treatment Roy will pursue will be three to four weeks, very vague about it, called it "non-invasive, non-surgical" and "personal"

Rockets have assigned Royce White to the NBA Development League, source said.

is bus travel feasible in the dl?

unless espn's box score is fucked the hell up, chris bosh is -29 in 14 minutes tonight in an 8-point game

David Aldridge ‏@daldridgetnt
Royce White's D League assignment part of "multi-week" plan to work him back into organization, per source. Practiced w/Rox this week.

I think it's more feasible than in the NBA actually

i guess i assumed it was like baseball's minor leagues and they only traveled by bus but that could be totally off

teams are more bunched up than in the NBA

shved dropping hella dimes, I love the Shved-Kirilenko mindmeld

since most are in small cities i wonder if they ever fly

there are tons of small airports

they're all reasonably sized cities like bakersfield or reno

yeah but flying from random places to random places is pretty expensive... or you after to fly and then get a bus to go to [place x]

PJ Tucker just tried to commit a hard foul on pekovic and bounced off him like a puppy running into a wall

haha for a sec I thought pj brown was still playing

pj brown came out of retirement to bounce off pekovic like a puppy

aw :)

for some reason this is the third sellout of the season at Target Center

"we gotta make sure we see the suns when they come to town"

eric gordon had 24 pts, 7 assists, couple of steals couple of threes in his first action since the 90's.

also cj miles (who?) went for 33 pts on 8 3's tonight

i guess there's a stats thread but who has the time.

I remember a great line from a Jazz fan a couple years ago re: CJ Miles "looking forward to CJ Miles' seventh consecutive rookie season"

huh, yeah, guy has been around since 05-06 and i have no memory of him whatsoever. been averaging ~10ppg since 08-09.

Isiah Thomas' botoxed head is creeping me out. Nothing moves except his lips and eyelids.

bucks look good tonight vs heat. larry sanders looks unusually huge, think it's his proportions.

so does everyone else's local sports station run tweets in a ticker down the bottom of your screen or is only my local sports station that abysmal

Sanders has like a 7'4 wingspan

as a public service to fans the heat should just let everyone know on twitter before tip off when they're gonna openly not give a shit about a game

7'6 actually. An amazing 9'4" standing reach. xp
