waiting for the other shoelace to drop: 2013-2014 NBA regular season thread (part 2)

ya that was nice

paul georges dad played hs football w john elway nuggs announcers r good w the factoids

what has happened to the NBA the last 2 nights? It's great, don't get me wrong.

really starting to love these nugs. there's no chance to do any damage in the playoffs with gallo out but i'm fine with chasing the 8th seed

mozgov running the floor man

fournier says "fellas"

Even scoring for the nuggz eh. four starters with 12 points

rubio brilliant take to the rack, complete brick of a layup smh

damn had not even heard of this young delker ross

toronto is a team I like never watch

Clippers are playing like they don't even need Chris Paul lately

Crawford 37-3-11 assists in 32 minutes not sure you can rely on that every night but Blake has really stepped up an a big way.

and reddick came back just at the right time when cp went down.

it's really amazing how Utah just keeps trucking along as a .500 team with Trey Burke in the lineup. They've dealt with some other injuries too.

good thing they lost all those games at the beginning so they could keep their record at the right tank level

what has happened to the NBA the last 2 nights? It's great, don't get me wrong.

celtics passed em, so proud of my boys xp

Genuinely surprised to find that Evan Fournier's nickname isn't Purple Rain.

@ESPNNBA: We've got an NBA tripleheader for you today:
Spurs-Heat, 1 ET, ABC
Lakers-Knicks, 3:30 ET, ABC
Nets-Celtics, 6:30 ET, ESPN

lol @ this programming

progressively less interesting

will mike breen ever call a spurs game again without talking about Gregg Popovich thinking about game 6

wow insane pass from bron

that pass was ridiculous

the heat's throwbacks are soooo much better than their regular unis imo

followed it up with a laughably bad outlet pass to battier but still

real defensive battle here

not much defense in the NBA lately huh?

god lebron has some passes this year where you wonder what the hell is wrong with him

WOW manu

sort of tiring of these pop interviews now, we get it

who the hell is othyus jeffers?

kawhi d-league replacement

Agree re pop interviews. Just let em be.

wow some incredibly bad officiating today

@IanBegley: asked if shocking that Carmelo didn't have success in his system, D'Antoni agreed. "Yeah shocking"

duncan is just eating bosh alive down there

if only there wasn't something obviously and irreversibly wrong with the heat they might be winning by 20

the heats are playing well

splitter and kawhi being out is definitely not ideal for the spurs tho

bosh has 22 and 5, duncan has 23 and 3

the heats are playing well

don't be fooled. the heat are old, hobbled, already emotionally-beaten by indiana, and extremely vulnerable. terrible team. sad state of affairs.

jeez manu has looked awful today

damn oden just trucked some random white, that was a strong-ass move

what was most impressive, to me, is that he seemed to plant his leg -- firmly on his knee -- during that approach.

Manu and wade are the same at this point. Chalk em up for a good game every two or three games.

eh they're both having good seasons, maybe a tick below their normal output

Big applause for kg and pierce

not much defense in the NBA lately huh?

I think we just have a bit of random statistical noise (Terrence Ross delking) combined with durant going ham for an extended period

Offense also historically gets better as the season goes on too right?

I was near msg today and if you think melo looks fat in that commercial imagine his double chin 50 ft tall above penn station

yeah it's obv just a lil variance
