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

i dont recall who guarded kg but just speculating usually spurs usually had a smaller line up they cld use to account for someone like him, duncan chasing kg around the perimeter is not exactly ideal, not saying he didnt do it but if he did he wld be... playing out of position

I'm willing to listen to the argument that he's a center who played out of position, but people don't acknowledge the can of worms this opens. Bird was only a 3 because Auerbach got Mchale and Parish, magic only a 1 because of imaginative coaching etc.

Magic also played some center iirc

Andre Drummond had 22 and 27 with 17 OREB

Apparently they were arguging about whether Tim Duncan was a Center or aP ower Forward

duncan obvs had some positional flexibility as do many players, which is and undervalued skill imo, but even when he was "playing power forward" he still played like a center, and had the body of one, and the disposition, the hair line, is a center

bird wldve been a pretty unconventional pf for his day fwiw w all his shooting distributing and ball handling skills

was prob a intra-gang leadership struggle

noel is good at d http://grantland.com/the-triangle/nerlens-noel-the-other-rookie-of-the-year

big question i see w him is he has the body of a pf hes really quite slight but his best offensive role is prob as an exclusively roll man like tyson chandler which is more of a center thing, hes def a game changer on D either way tho

maybe it doesnt matter but its just hard to imagine him handling say marc gasol one on one

embiid can shoot so maybe they can make it work

dang whats up with manu's stomach gastroenteritis sucks

Shved vs. Lin tonight, the future vs. the past

the future of, like, bad vs. the past of unsustainable-but-entertaining-while-it-lasted good?

Shvedsanity will never end

Juiceman thing is !!!!!!!!!

smh lin is so much better than shved

SMH = Shaking My sHved

Lin had his doubters too. Enjoy the ride.

yeah and he's not good right now, and is still better than alexy fucking shved

I can tell you like championing underrated/unsung players man but this one seems like it will not end well! idk but to each his/her own of course

he just lost a big chunk of change cos of him!

Yeah I'm just joshing, we all know how shved is

Drew Gooden about to show out on national tv y'all

Feel like spurs-cavs should be good

both teams playing well yeah

yeah i'm stoked for that one

Gobert with a double double in the first quarter

lebron is so bald

the headband-less lebron thing is so disorienting

It's weird I had a hard time picking him out for a second

14 points, 18 rebounds and 3 blocks in the first half for futurehollins

lol why is chuck calling the game along with harlan

they let chuck do like 3-4 games a year and he is so bad at it, he doesn't even know how to watch basketball anymore

i just got home and turned this on and like i can't even deal with no headband lebron

maybe he his proud of his hair implant?

kawhi don't hurt em!!!

actually do hurt em this is an incredible game

kyrie is so fast, damn

timothy just snatched timofey the fuck out the air

yall remember that mannie fresh/big tymers skit when he was talking bout the "i can still get it up tour"? tim duncan should be on that tour

we don't deserve tim duncan.

this is one of the best games ive seen all year

wholeheartedly agree
