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

man you know you're in trouble when jr smith is giving you dad advice

i don't think you want to be playing him in the playoffs though (problem solved)

how much of this was a scott brooks problem vs a thabo problem tho. on a team with a real offense it should be less of an issue

well scott brooks played him in the playoffs so that's a scott brooks problem. not being a playoffs player is a thabo problem.

if the hawks played teague-thabo-korver-millsap-horford in the playoffs thabo would get an open look every possession, this is basically what happened with okc too and wasn't a workable offense

well scott brooks played him in the playoffs so that's a scott brooks problem. not being a playoffs player is a thabo problem.

right i just meant to what extent were his offensive deficiencies magnified due to playing for a coach with a bad offensive scheme

in any event i don't think thabo is underrated, everyone around the league knows what he is and what he does. he gets d
serious minutes from a good coach on a very good team. and his advanced numbers support him being a big plus on defense and a big minus on offense.

scott brooks is a dummy but idk what coach can get scheme around a non-offensive wing being unguarded in the playoffs

jfc now afflalo is down, portland what did you do to offend the gods

only one-two weeks, cross yr fingers he's back for game one

dude the whole thabo debate started because he WAS being guarded, remember

in fact, that's why he got that nasty dunk youtube itt

hope baze has small feet

So @24Bazemore took a big basket full of old sneakers - which he signed - to give to kids before game. "Spring cleaning." #ATLHawks

btw as a percentage of net worth Iverson is way below my average strip club expenditure.

o man stop the wiz nets game they're dead already

These minutes muscala's getting with the starters are huge. Think he's gonna be the first big off the bench in the playoffs

celtics won 6 in a row on the road

Spurs and rox tied with 4 to go

Damn I leave u guys alone for 36 hours and I come back and the joint is full of arguments about thabo sefolosha

Sometimes I think Timmy is the goat.

harden...

rockets homer announcers make a harden MVP comment every five minutes

That pass from jet was crazy

damn timmy that was strong

"Stay tuned we've got the lakers hosting the wolves next on NBA TV" cool

Haha Timmy game winning block and homer rockets announcers calling it a foul

celtics won 6 in a row on the road
--lag∞n

this is making me think they can win a playoff series and that is dangerous

to make you feel better, the cavs actually got the lead in the 3rd quarter then pulled love and lebron for the remainder of the game so that james jones, delly, and someone named "joe harris" could play.

oh yea I was watching, I know that they m/l have up

what I'm really thinking is that they could move up a seed and face toronto and that's a total coin flip

*gave

i'd really like them to get out of the 7th spot be it up or down

memphis can fall from the two to the five seed if they lose to utah in the next couple minutes, the west is so absurd

and san antonio and houston flip flopped the 3 and 6 seeds on that one game

yeah i just saw that. like i knew the west was tight but somehow didn't compute. memphis has the tiebreaker w/ sa apparently. i swear it seems like just a couple of days ago those two were a first round matchup.

spurs are about this life

yeah i was thinking 'spurs don't really need homecourt' and then it's like 'or they could just go grab the #2 seed'. fucking ridiculous.

memphis is playing LAC and GS, so they could lose two games and if the spurs win out, yeah theyre #2

also, the SW division is easily the best in nba. all teams may make playoffs if NO gets in and the best division record is memphis who is 9-7.

Wtf

Every summer after the finals I think maybe I'll get into some beisbol then after one six hour sox-yanks slog I'm out

I like the idea of baseball much better than the execution so now I settle for going to 1-2 games a year, half-watching a couple of World Series games, and idly listening to vin scully a few times while puttering

I feel like I had faith the Spurs would put on the afterburners once kawhi and enough of the squad was really healthy but this is truly ridiculous that they are blasting former contenders and ripping through the standings quite literally at the finish line

xp vin is the best

I absolutely love baseball but last night it almost killed me

the spurs are just pouring gasoline on teams and casually dropping matches it's amazing

rip griz http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2015/4/11/8387583/mike-conley-foot-injury-shut-down-playoffs

too many injuries are htting right before the playoffs.

fuck the grizzlies but ugh fuck this stupid season
