I’d have to see who they’re playing against to pick one on the undefeated list.

But Minnesota is the better team in the winless column. I’ll pick them without looking up their next game.

Did anyone else get the feeling that Al Harrington is gonna be a quiet beast this year after watching the game? Dude was taking good shots for the most part before he had those rushed shots at the end to avoid the :24 violations.

I will assume he won’t get some nagging injury along the way too.

T-Wolves and Pacers.

So am I the only person who thinks that Melo is still a better scorer than Durant? KD has more range and his deep jumper is water but Melo has got a WAAAAAAAAAY better post game, a bigger body, and is the best cherry-picker in the NBA.

This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

Honestly… I don’t care how well the play was drawn up… who allows alleyoop-in-bounds-passes with less than 4 seconds in the game?

Undefeated: Miami
Winless: Wizards

Bynum keeps playing like that, the trade for Dwight will be Bynum and trash for Dwight, 4 first round picks plus cash.

You’re not the only one. I like Durant as a player, but he is pretty one-dimensional as a scorer. If you get an aggressive defender on him, his ability declines (look at his previous playoffs games against Artest, Tony Allen, Shawn Marion). He takes too many jumpers (some way too deep). If he can get stronger and develop a post game, with that length of his, he would go from a borderline superstar to a sure fire one. Durant needs to improve his defense (by a lot) and be able to create shots for others. Right now, I see him as a Reggie Miller type of player (guy that gets most of his points off of screens and jumpers), which isn’t a bad thing, but he has potential to be better than that.

So far it looks like Detroit/Pacers out of those columns by the looks of it.

jae_hoon · 2012-01-01T05:53:01.000Z

I am probably the biggest Melo fan in here and even I have to say you guys are insane if you think Melo is a better scorer then Durant.

devastator · 2012-01-01T06:28:04.000Z

Demarcus Cousins finally got that assist lol.

de_BLOO · 2012-01-01T06:53:53.000Z

Lamar Odom is shooting 13% from the field and 8% from three so far this season.

“He’s gonna be mad about this tomorrow but so what”

“…8 mile…”

great game btw, I looked at it as a good “test” for the lakers to see if they can still close out games. they did, in true laker fashion.

BYNUM!!

I think everyone agrees Melo is the best scorer in the league. The nigga just doesn’t play defense.

The whole god damn team doesn’t play defense + Mr. Pringles = even if they get a new coach it will take them 2+ years to get rid of their habit of not playing defense.

In other news I really think Spencer Hawes forgot that he’s white.

ViciousSLASH · 2012-01-01T08:27:54.000Z

No, he has realized his true whiteness and has found the power of Bill Walton inside him.

SPENCER HAWES MVP.

devastator · 2012-01-01T09:13:24.000Z

Way to stink it up tonight Kings and Warriors. Even without Monta I feel this should have been a win for them. No Amare and at home against the Knicks the Kings should have easily won but nope. Kings need to learn how to make some damn free throws.

Grimmjow316 · 2012-01-01T11:04:19.000Z

Good bounce back by the Rockets Lowry just putting in work.

This is where Chandler swoops in to save the day.

yeah he’s definitely mind fucked from that trade. Some people would say that he called the lakers bluff into trading him, like “oh even if I request a trade, they won’t do it” (into which they did).

Terry_nb · 2012-01-02T02:03:29.000Z

did I overestimate the coach effect on the Wolves… rubs chin
