Re: 2012-2013 NBA Season

The Lakers are ridiculous. They had the sixth ranked offense and their defense was rapidly improving. But, they decided that they needed an even better offense.

In the end, they simply want to own the headlines. There is value and money in that.

The Twolves injury report is absurd. Never seen anything like it.

Rubio
Love
Barea
Roy
Pekovic
Budinger

As someone who owns Kirilenko on his fantasy team, I enjoy seeing that.

Re: 2012-2013 NBA Season

Kevin Love came back two nights ago

34 points, 14 rebounds.

It's like he never left

What's amazing is that they are shooting 41% as a team (only Indiana and Washington are worse...bad times for the Pacers).

Speaking of the Pacers, they are playing some of the most unwatchable basketball possible. They are shooting 41% and giving up 40% shooting. No one else is close to that defensive number.

I have to admit, MKG is making a quicker impact than I thought he would.

Re: 2012-2013 NBA Season

If MKG gets his jump shot consistent he could be one of the best players in the NBA. Is he going to end up more Kobe or Gerald Wallace...

He can do pretty much everything else already and his intangibles are off the charts.

The jump shot was my question also. I didnt figure he would get as many put backs and inside shots as he did in college.
I havent got to see many of his games but he must be doing something right as I think he is averaging around 11 to 12 points and 6 or 7 rebounds.
If he finds that jumper......look out.

Re: 2012-2013 NBA Season

Whatever Charlotte was doing didn't work last night. They were down 64 - 24 at half vs. OKC. BTW, congratulations for helping me to set a world record for consecutive Charlotte Bobcats posts in a baseball forum. I knew we could do it.

I loved Byron Scott's press conference last night: "I'll make just a real quick statement. Andy Varejao was fantastic. Everybody else sucked tonight. Anything else you need to know?"
