He was done along time ago, that was a terrible max contract when he was signed to it. I bet NY still wishes they had Wilson Chandler right about now.
Pau loves high post because he can chill there and hit his nice little jumper and pass to dudes. Especially with Steve and Dwight there.
They don’t even need Kobe, just two other dudes to spot up and hit threes and they could probably win the title.
Too bad Kobe is crazy and will be like “I GOTTA GET MY SHOTS”
if stat would put his ego away and come off the bench, it’d be great for us. he won’t do it tho.
anyway, it looks like linsanity isn’t doing anything in houston, like we thought.
Well it is the preseason and he actually has played well the last couple of games, he is only playing like 20 minutes right now.
A) Pre season doesn’t mean shit, but if you want to play that game…
23 minutes
5/10 field
3/4 3point line
3 rebs
5 assist
2 steals
0 turnovers
+18.
= Jeremy Lin
32 minutes
4/13 field
2/4 three
9 rebounds
0 assist
0 steals
0 blocks
3 turnovers
+4
= Carmelo Anthony
I’m not saying anything… but I’m just saying.
Yes it does matter. Because if you guys draft him late or don’t draft him at all under the assumption that he will suck per NBA rookie history, that will be detrimental to the league’s integrity and all of our collective basketball knowledge.
I wouldn’t want to be associated with a league where a talent like Anthony Davis does not go early.
Um, it’s an auction keeper league.
Either someone is going to be stupid and draft him for way too much money or we will all play chicken with each other to draft him as late as possible. There is no drafting. There is only buying.
It’s like you completely forget what happened last year.
It’s ok, we’ll leave him in his own world. We all benefit from it.
It’s like we are speaking to you in English, and you’re reading our post in Spanish. If you Anthony Davis to go so early why don’t you just nominate him when it’s your turn? PROBLEM SOLVED!
There’s only two scenario that can play out.
A) Geo really think Davis suck so he trying to lure us into over paying for Davis. = Geo is smart.
B) Geo being Geo, and showing his hand. Now everyone knows he likes Davis so when Davis is up for bidding everyone is going to play chicken and try to make Geo spend maximum dollars on him. = Geo is fucked.
I didn’t forget anything. How could I forget overpaying for Rose and subsequently ruining my whole team in the process. I know what I’m doing now.
But its not about me and whether I get Davis or not. I want him to be appreciated. Tis all. No homo.
not that our team is stacked but melo isn’t the only decent nigga on the team. he doesn’t necessarily have to put up certain numbers.
lin on the other hand…
he got exposed last season. period. then he got scared his money would go down so he QUIT.
on the other hand, melo put the team on his back tho, we didn’t make it out of the first round and he went on to be phenomenal in the olympics.
i’d take melo over lin any day and you can compare them all day.
Wasn’t that Lin’s first good game of the Preseason.
You can easily pick Lin’s
25 Min
1-10
0-3 Three
1 Reb
1 Assist
1 Steal
0 Blocks
2 TO
-5
or
30 Min
1-8
0-1
3 Reb
5 Assist
2 Steals
2 Blocks
6 TO
+10
But it wouldn’t suit your agenda.
I want to face palms so hard.
To Debs :Look at how much Melo makes then look at Lin. Never said he was better than Melo but better VALUE.
To Rock: No it was his first semi healthy game, but of course you over looked that.
Oh you guys… I’m done. Back to fun league talk…
P.S I didn’t search for bad games from Melo and good games from Lin. I search for most RECENT game. Jesus Christ man…
To quote the not so intelligent Jalen Rose. ““The NBA is a what have you done for me lately kind of league””
Nope I didn’t. I’m not a doctor so I won’t assume when he’s healthy or not. I’ll just take a random sample of the work he’s done.
You should know better than trying to talk to a Knicks fan about values.
I bet debs would blow all his auction money away in the first few rounds of an auction draft.
Harden turned down an Extension form OKC.
Of course he did, they lost Harden the minute they signed Westbrook to a max contract. Harden will get max money and is looking for max money. That is why I said acouple years ago OKC title window is actually short.
LOL, Knicks fans still talking about Lin though? How salty can you be.
Obviously they are secure that Felton will be a better player.
OKC will do to Harden the same thing they did to Jeff Green. Publicly they will very subtly turn him into the badguy and make it sound like he is not being a team player. They will try to drive his price down by doing this and if that does not work they will try to trade him and make him look like the villain in the process.
They drafted Perry Jones in order to replace Harden. He’s asking for a max deal and someone will give it to him, I actually wonder if Chicago would be willing to trade draft picks for him since they want to amnesty Boozer.
Harden and a healthy Rose would be a really good back court.
