funny thing about this game is the cavs are actually playing pretty well on offense and still are getting outscored by a middling lakers team

Chances of Kobe shut down this season? Byron: "If we're nowhere near playoff contention in March...then we might discuss that."

benching love in crunch time again. incredible
― k3vin k., Friday, 16 January 2015 06:01 (nine years ago) link
lebron really just doesn't give a shit out there. it's something to behold. just trying out trick plays out there on his own
― k3vin k., Friday, 16 January 2015 06:06 (nine years ago) link
Love was hurt this time, legitimately

kobe and bron guarding each other hard near the end was the first half of a Tylenol commercial

the lebron/kobe bromance last night was really weird

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA 6 minutes agoNets unwillingness on Lance Stephenson has Brooklyn focused on dealing directly with Thunder for Brook Lopez, league sources tell Yahoo.

kobe welcoming him into the non defending chuckers club
just watched the end of the game again, it does look like love's back was acting up just before he was taken out

why do the thunder want brook lopez i don't understand it
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:34 (nine years ago) link
because hes an elite player (WHEN HEALTHY [MOVES SLOWLY])
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:36 (nine years ago) link
their frontcourt rotation is fine even if you don't even take into account that durant should get minutes a lot of minutes at the 4 against certain teams
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:36 (nine years ago) link
fine not good enough the west is an arms race and okc prob more desperate than most re the potential imminent departure of kd
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:37 (nine years ago) link
also kd maybe hates jackson, and jackson is playing very poorly, time 2 panic
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:39 (nine years ago) link
i feel like thunder really just want a backup center who isn't kendrick perkins
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Friday, 16 January 2015 16:41 (nine years ago) link
i mean lopez is an elite rim protector and his per is like ~23 over the last few seasons, jackson has shown an inability to blend with kd/westb its a worthy risk imo
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:42 (nine years ago) link
ibaka and adams are both centers, plus they have collison and maybe mitch mcgary comes along in the second half enough to give you 6-8 minutes in the playoffs. AND you have durant for small ball.
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:42 (nine years ago) link
if i'm them i'm looking to find a 3 and D guy
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:43 (nine years ago) link
wilson chandler makes much more sense for them than brook lopez
my deep abiding love for steven adams is well known on this message board but lopez wld be a pretty huge upgrade, and the thunder still wld have no problem going small when the situation demands
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:43 (nine years ago) link
they need to find a player better than roberson and perry jones, not one better than nick collison
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:44 (nine years ago) link
wilson chandler maybe makes more sense positionally but theres no comparison talent wise, theres no one else the thunder have any sort of shot as whos nearly as good at basketball as lopez
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:45 (nine years ago) link
the thunder are plenty talented, talent is not their problem
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:45 (nine years ago) link
theres no such thing as plenty talented lol
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:46 (nine years ago) link
xxxp roberson is definitely a problem that's true, the fact that he's their starting 2 is ludicrous
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Friday, 16 January 2015 16:47 (nine years ago) link
if they trade for brook lopez and have to sit steven adams but still play andre roberson they are not going to be any better
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:47 (nine years ago) link
cld also move collision or adams for more wing help if need be

brook lopez is better than steven adams ergo ur formula is wrong, bad
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:48 (nine years ago) link
remember when everyone was like "you have to trade klay thompson for kevin love because he's just better"
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:49 (nine years ago) link
well the argument that it would open up a hole in golden states line up where one does not exist is not the same as the thunder where you would just be keeping a lineup whole where one already exists, also both arguments fail to consider the possibility of further moves
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:51 (nine years ago) link
not to mention the talent gap between those players is not comparable
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:52 (nine years ago) link
and team continuity does not seem to be something the thunder actually possess
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:53 (nine years ago) link
i reject this comparison
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:54 (nine years ago) link
also maybe golded state shouldve traded for kevin love?
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:55 (nine years ago) link
except nobody thinks that?
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:56 (nine years ago) link
the big 3 heat are the only modern example of amassing talent being enough to haul yourself to a championship
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link
counterpoint every championship team (except last years spurs) is an example of it
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:58 (nine years ago) link
C's no longer modern?
― 龜, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:58 (nine years ago) link
but also lopez wld mostly be a good fit for the thunder, cld put their defense over the top to the best in the league, on offense he demands a double team sucking players away from perimeter shooters, the only thing that wld worry me about the fit is that hes slow
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 16:59 (nine years ago) link
Not like Perkins is burning rubber out there.
― tsrobodo, Friday, 16 January 2015 17:02 (nine years ago) link
perk doesnt play too much anymore tho
― lag∞n, Friday, 16 January 2015 17:03 (nine years ago) link
the celtics were much more fit than talent
the mavs team that won was one great player with perfect pieces around him
― J0rdan S., Friday, 16 January 2015 17:04 (nine years ago) link
feel like the inside out game is something that cld really work for the thunder, not too complicated for brooks to understand
