Breaking -- The human race has waived Josh Smith: 2014-15 regular season thread part 2

it really is a tragedy that lillard is missing out on the ASG tho, especially considering he'd be a starter in the east without question. obv the league should just do away with conferences but for the ASG at least just choose 24 players and have them pick teams among themselves or something.

ya

shdve picked lillard over westbrook i think

U talkin shit about the hawks man?

i said korver had a case! the hawks have 4 deserving all-stars (only in the context of the east tho, they'd probably have zero in the west), but i just think the need to reward winning teams with all-stars who clearly aren't among the best players is silly. guys like frank isola are yelling all over the radio saying how terrible it is that the thunder have 2 all stars but the grizzlies, who are 2nd in the west, have only 1. so what? conley is a nice player and would probably be an all-star in the east, but he's a top-10 point guard in the west. it is what it is. you can't just go looking for random guys on winning rosters to fill all star squads, it becomes absurd

Cousins is the Kings' first All-Star since 2004

yeah i don't disagree. positionally i was a little surprised teague got in just bc the pg competition is pretty stiff in the east. but i think he deserves it.

oh i just saw that lowery and wall both are playing so no real snub there

also just saw the 2014 roster and saw joe johnson was in it. FOR THE 7TH TIME

i'm still on the fence about joe tho. he had some of the worst offensive minds coaching him in atl.

i've never had much of an opinion of johnson aside from the general sense that he's a m/l avg player with a really good agent.

hes like the definition of a borderline allstar he just kept it up for a really long time and somehow kept squeaking in

theory - it was a secret david stern plan to drum up interest in the pre-2014/2015 hawks

his squeaking in that is

heh

you guys

damian is might srsly fuck up this league now

Dame needs Wes to stay hot and Batum to get a bit less cold so opposing teams can't gang up on him. Then he can rip it up.

I just watched his response video dear lord he's gonna kill everybody

hawks might need to be scared

abt to head home early just to catch this whole blazers hawks game and see if dame goes nuclear

He just doesn't want to end up like one of those guys who never win a ring.

*won.

"it ain't always going to e peaches and cream but somebody has to pay for the reason it's not ... One way or another" -damian lillard's vengeance coach

slow start to blazers hawks

i did not get to go home early after all, so did damian not murder the entire attending crowd? strange.

the organist really does make a difference.

LOTS of empty seats halfway through the first at Phillps.

FTM-A
Blazers 1-1
Hawks 11-19

whiteside had more rebounds than the mavs had points in the 1st quarter

mavs gone off the rails

portland/ATL game is great

role player hall of fame thread punchline kent bazemore playing crunch time minutes in one of the biggest games of the year

No one can stop the Hawks!

theyve won 18 games in a row, theyre 7 games ahead of the second place eastern team

What's happened to the Mavs offense?

kevin love very well may lead his team in scoring tonight, stay tuned

haven't watched much of them but probably a little of regression and a little of rondo

Montas numbers are down since rondo.

harden is 4/21 tonight x_x

i still think there's time to figure it out before they fall out of playoff contention but something needs to change

Xxp yeah monta needs the ball in his hands. he isn't as good a spot up shooter as dirk or chandler. much of his game is isos and then in the paint then you lose some spacing when rondos man is always on help so he ends up stranded with looks he doesn't want

sounds about right

Harden always has crap fg% tho. All about if he's getting to the line or not

Yah monta otm

cavs won 9 striaght
