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

here's hoping the lakers have the same blind spot

Wonder what the market will be for Chandler after next year-- he seems to be closer to old Chandler this year, but it's tough to gauge (same w/ Shump) on this Knicks team.

Would've been interesting if OKC had Chandler these past few years rather than Perk-- would've only been +$5m, could've maybe cut some extra money here and there.

in other news...

Please be advised that the gentleman who signed hundreds of autographs for Epcot guests today was not Orlando Magic guard Jameer Nelson.

all signs point to yes

you would think so but last time they were in this spot kupchak fucking nailed it

their roster is much more depleted this time, like theyve got nothing

they have a top 5 pick, maybe he'll hit like he did with Bynum

old ass kobe old ass pau and a bunch of nobodies really just nothing

the knicks don't even have their pick and they're over the cap lol

yeah the pick has potential but even then man that is a baren wasteland

the knicks at least have one good player but yeah they are completely fucked

Kevin Pelton ‏@kpelton -- Simulation says Houston-Portland is the most likely first-round series, taking place nearly half the time (48.6 percent).

would be a fun series.

Kobe wasn't a husk last time the lakers were in the hole too

I'm hoping for por vs gsw so spottie and I can get uncomfortable in here for a couple weeks

to make one team better you have to make another team worse

but, strangely enough, it would be theoretically quite easy to make every team worse, just by redistributing all the players who are currently in the league with an eye to making as many stupid combinations of skill sets and playing styles as humanly possible.

Would love to see GSW take the #5 spot -> Blazers beat Clips -> GSW over Houston.

i would love gsw forever if they beat the rockets.

Clay otm

wow Drummond dominating

going for 60 tonight.

wait bron has 55?

yup. seven minutes left.

The Nets are going to be .500 by the end of the night! Jason Kidd coach of the year

Will Bynum seems way way better than Jennings to me

JR Smith 0-10

lebron career high (57), with five minutes left.

Drummond just missed a FT wide right off the backboard. Has 26 rebounds.

2 minutes to get 9 points.

lolbron and drummond are both on my fantasy team #pwns

man 22-33, nice job Bron

pulled lebron after he hit 61, looks like.

the heat box score is pretty wild

33 or more shots on 67%

big al had 38 and 19 fwiw (not much)

Yeah Bron totally overshadowing another massive (getting to be normal) game from big al

no, it's worth a lot. jefferson was on fire.

hey he kept it close enough for lebron to get 61

if the nuggets keep it close Love will probably have 30-20-8

2nd 60+ point game this year, hadn't happened once since 2009, and nobody had done it other than kobe since arenas in 06.

carmello the other?

wait what he's been awful this year and was good last year

yeah a lil over a month ago xp

ha, melo had zero assists that game, i didn't notice that at the time

chandler is not actually that good imo, seems like no one can actually keep straight who are the great defensive centers. is it larry sanders, chandler, marc gasol, etc, dudes are just products of whatever crappy secret defensive metrics are in vogue at the moment

most points ever tallied w/o an assist! xp to myself

haha. some already speculating that durant will aim for 62 points tomorrow (v. 76ers).
