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

i dont see color but i do see size

I saw Joakim Noah soulfully lamenting out of the corner of my eye and suddenly remembered that they traded luol Deng then that seemed weird so I thought I just made it up but then I looked it up and it happened and both teams in that trade are still horrible

Isnt that just a d league game on espn at the mo?

Deng trade was good move for Bulls

huge Bulls fan and I can't be bothered to pull up a feed of the game

the bulls are, not fun

Deng trade was good move for Bulls

anyone/everyone on bulls' roster is available 'cept for rose and noah. they're making room for melo.

hello mello.

<3 Dragic fan club in Milwaukee

god I hope Paxson/Forman are smarter than that xp

what would rose & melo even look like i have no idea

ha melo wld be kind of perfect on the bulls i think

NO GUYS STOP IT

been saying since bout 5 yrs ago no team will win ring w/Melo as 1st or 2nd best player

I totally agree, but that's why I want you to have him

Think I might have been high on something the other day but definitely had the thought "Melo to the Heat"

I do think Melo on a very strong defensive team could work in a you-do-your-thing-I'll-do-mine sort of way

if the bulls got the willing passer power forward melo of last year imo it cld really work for them and they shd do it

rose drive and kicks to wide open carmelo, noah playing all the D for both of them

NO GUYS STOP IT

you cannot slow down this runaway train. melo wants the chicago bulls; the chicago bulls wants melo.

dolan will prob threaten melo's family to keep him on the knicks

rose drive and kicks to wide open carmelo

rose drives, kicks to wide open carmelo, no other chicago bull ever touches the basketball again.

38-17-3 for the Diggler tonight

Williams said the hardest part of playing for the Jazz was attracting free agents, although he noted that might be an issue exclusive to Utah. The Thunder drafted so well that it has to worry more about affording its own free agents, which is why OKC traded James Harden to the Rockets.

“It’s hard to get free agents to come (to Utah) and play. ... People get a bad perception of Salt Lake City,” he said. “That’s what I was talking about. It’s not so much the size of the market. It’s the perception which is like, ‘Mormon, no fun.’"

I've been to SLC a few times and I can't really argue with DWill's take. Park City is nice tho.

1st time w/double digits, holee

he actually looks pretty good in those clips

upped his per from 1.1 to 2.3

hot damn hes on fire!

challhoop: if he gets in shape he cd be p good

melo on the bulls is probably an ok idea if thibs sticks around, they can win all their games 85-80 and will be terrible to watch. also worrying abt melo and rose co-existing is silly to me since i think absolutely nothing is guaranteed with rose from this point forward.

yeah melo has been very durable to his credit

"I take some sort of pride in that you could argue that Royce White is the worst first-round pick ever," Morey said in an interview with Rockets blog ClutchFans.net.

great that daryl can lol this off but he still sounds like an ass here

griffin is good, not reliant on paul, dunking http://grantland.com/the-triangle/dispelling-the-blake-griffin-myths

daryl should take pride in overlooking a player's mental issues to pick him in the first round.... but that's about it

i feel bad for that dude honestly

man the new grantland text is so ugly whyyyy

used to vist grant land daily, now check it maybe once a week or if someone links an article

the other thing that sucks is you can't change the font size in your phone by doing the expander finger thing

I don't consider myself to be particularly averse to change but I can think of tons of sites I immediately stopped visiting following a layout change/upgrade. Would love to see some stats on that kind of thing impacts traffic.

this sounds stupid

I wonder how today's game would change if they got rid of the three pointer

I've been to SLC a few times and I can't really argue with DWill's take. Park City is nice tho.

yeah i used to live there and it's a dull isolated place. if you're into skiing it's great for that. the mormons are pretty rabid about basketball though as they all grow up playing at church.

met twitter superstar n 3 t w e r k last night, really nice guy to talk to

(i don't think he knew i knew he was who he is tho)

or is it n e t w 3 r k, i always forget

where did you meet him?

it's the secind
