I have the Bobcats guys
They are talking about the uniforms in quite a bit of detail…it’s riveting, I tell you
I'm confident
we can beat Houston.
All we need is to play solid for four quarters and hope Yao gets blocked by the rim a couple more times. T-Mac might not play.
OT: Who should I trade Kobe for in my fantasy basketball league?
He’s sucked so far and I don’t think he’ll get better. I’m thinking D-Wade but there are obvious reasons not to. LeBron and CP3 are untouchable, I already got rejected on Stoudemire. Who else?
Chris Bosh?
I don’t play fantasy basketball, but Bosh usually has good numbers. How about Dwight Howard?
Marc Gasol
Had one monster game and that’s about it. I have high hopes for that guy, though…he’s solid and can bang around with other big guys. He impressed me against the Magic; he wasn’t letting Dwight Howard push him around in the paint.
yea pretty good game!
too bad stack wants out when his team is playing pretty good. pretty selfish jumping ship like that, he wants more minutes right? I took a look at possible destinations or prospective trades. What do you think of Harpring for Stack. I mean that trade isnt that risky for both teams. Harpring can provide us with toughness, he’s a basketball player trapped in a football players body or vice-versa? hahaha
well i think stack does too right?
if stack was smart he’s gonna request for a trade to a possible winner, a team that has a chance to go deep in the playoffs. Both players are not shooting pretty good recently. both have 2 years left. Stack has 1 mil more in the contract so when it expires a little bit more $.
just imagine
bass and harpring off the bench? thats a physical duo right there. no one can call us soft after that!
Has Carlisle fallen in love with small-ball again?
Is that a trend for the Mavs? I read this week teams are rather trying to play bigger (Raptors, Nets, Blazers, even Suns).
I see this more as a "breaking in" thing
First Singleton, now Williams. But the lack of Damp (forget about Diop) is questionable.
Wow
Devin’s sinking jumpers for NJ. And NY’s keeping even with Boston so far, unlike that game last season.
Devin will win MIP this year if he continues to play like this
At least he will be on the short list.
I'll be in great shape
if it becomes a keeper league.
Monta, Granger, Harris, Josh, Deng, Iggy, Lee, Thaddeus Young, Thornton, Millsap, Jefferson, Bass, Westbrook then Fin kicking up the rear. Young guns!
Granger is a nice pick, he should stuff almost all categories
I wanted him badly for the Blazers or Mavs, but unfortunately he re-signed in Indy.
I don't know about you guys, but the game thread seems to have more people comments than last year.
I have witnessed time and time again.
That's classic
But I like Rasheed’s CTC quote: “As long as somebody ‘CTC,’ at the end of the day I’m with them,” he said.
Pause, then: “For all you that don’t know what CTC means, that’s ‘Cut the Check.’”
The hard part is hanging on to the lead
Hopefully they can do it…they can’t act like they’ve won it already
That's when we played
a bunch of scrubs, not just three.
Dirk or Josh could stay on until we put it out of reach (say 20 with five left).
You said you went to college...
So I said your mom goes to college…I thought you would pick up on the Napoleon Dynamite reference…but its cool
Uh, where's the foul on Damp there?
How is that a blocking foul on him when Okafor went over the back
Man these Charlotte announcers...
it must suck to call these games…being down 20 points…a big block is a “spark” the Bobcats need…haha
Yeah, I feel bad for them
They were talking about the uniforms earlier. I guess they’re just trying to look for anything positive.
the ESPN guys would be perfect replacements to call their games
Because no matter who plays, they ALWAYS find a way to sneak in small talk about Kobe, Wade, LeBron, and KG’s “leadership”
Yeah, and how clutch KG is.
They must have forgot that he used to play for Minnesota.
I have witnessed time and time again.
I just hope
Followill and Ortegel don’t ever have to resort to talking about uniforms and other useless stuff…that would be a sad day
Because the 4th quarter is still ahead...
and we all know thats game time for our Dallas Mavericks…HA!
Last year it was the 3rd quarter.
Maybe we should go back to last year’s method.
I have witnessed time and time again.
It doesn't look like they'll blow this lead
The Bobcats don’t have a lot of energy with the exception of Augustin
He's made a lot of shots,
is that because Kidd is guarding him and he isn’t quick enough?
I have witnessed time and time again.
Howard
His 2nd straight good 4th quarter? I’m shocked.
Fire Todd Dodge. Seriously. Back to Suckville with a loss to FLA ATL but whatever, SUCK IT WESTERN KENTUCKY! 1-9 baby!
The Charlotte Announcers Quote...
“You try to figure out what went wrong tonight…and I think the 15 point run to start the first was to hard to overcome” OR…the Bobcats really suck and need to make a bunch of moves this season
Yeah, definitely
Either they get rid of May or make him get in shape…unfortunately for them, Okafor is like a semi bust, same with Morrison. The J-Rich acquisition is nice, but that guy is always hurt.
A 15 point run to start the game was hard to overcome.
Really, most runs like that are hard to overcome when you’re not good.
I have witnessed time and time again.
I have noticed that Green plays a lot less minutes than Terry,
so what is the point of starting Green over him then.
I have witnessed time and time again.
Maybe Terry is like the "fake" sixth man, so to speak
Like Manu…coming off the bench with starter’s minutes
What pisses me off:
that when you want more sauce on your McDonald’s sundae for a certain flavour like hot fudge, but don’t get enough of it.
Then next time, you order a sickingly sweet flavour like caramel and you get too much.
I just love
what the Kings got for Artest.
Bobby Jackson: 3.2PPG (will go up after tonight’s 10 point effort but…)
Donte Greene: a bucketful of crap.
JASON KIDD WITH HIS FIRST SHOT IN THE GAME AND IT IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have witnessed time and time again.
Yay.
Go Mavs. Rockets tmrw. Without T-Mac, very winnable.
Fire Todd Dodge. Seriously. Back to Suckville with a loss to FLA ATL but whatever, SUCK IT WESTERN KENTUCKY! 1-9 baby!
Yao is probably okay
Even though he tweaked the ankle or whatever. It was Artest that I saw limping.
You changed it again, Wes
To “Hey, we won a game,” haha. I like it. I think it’s a great idea to use the quotes that are reflecting the state of the team (and the fans).
