[Ghetto Anthony]

Yeah, you have been good competition this week. My OREBS and BLKS suffered when Drew missed a game this week, much like my steals when Felton and assists when missed the first game of the week.

Meh. Missed 1 game and you got 13 OREB out of your 3OT game and 3 blocks. Felton would have grabbed you one steal maybe on Monday, but the 3 on Friday was because he was on those terrible rookie guards of Washington. Jordan Crawford netted me 17 turnovers in TWO GAMES this week. Jesus.

My team has played pretty poorly all week unfortunately. But at least I've learned something this season. Brook Lopez is cancer. Have fun against chico perv at least at the end of the season you'll be able to say you beat ol' GA. Especially after what went down earlier on in the year.

I can beat chico, btw. (if my team plays slightly above average. they're playing well below average this week)

 

[PHX]

Unless my team fucks around I should beat IYF 10-4

 

[LaBrandon Aldridge]

Jrue Holiday, ladies and gentlemen.

 

[SAL]

Jrue Holiday, ladies and gentlemen.

I'm going to get this matchup so fucking close too. No Love or Rondo tonight, of course.

 

[SAL]

On the other hand, Anthony Randolph: 3 minutes, 3 fouls. Thank you, Anthony Randolph.

 

[SAIYANS]

Marcus Thornton and Samuel Dalembert

They combined for 45 points, 26 rebounds, 11 free throws, 5 assists, and 2 steals on 50% shooting

 

[SAL]

Hey Brandon. It's 8-6. And you lead off rebounds by 2.

lolsal

Sal I thought this was interesting

This was on NBA Gametime, where they broke it down and gave their own definition of clutch.

The scenario is: Since 06-07, Last 10 Seconds of 4th Quarter / Overtime, Tied or Down 1-3

Wade
FG - 5/43 (11.6%)
3 Point FG - 2/17 (11.8%)
Free Throws - 10/12 (83.3%)
Total Points - 22

LeBron
FG - 9/41 (22.0%)
3 Point FG - 1/21 (4.85%)
Free Throws - 12/15 (80.0%)
Total Points - 31

Kobe
FG - 13/37 (35.1%)
3 Point FG - 4/16 (25%)
Free Throws - 7/11 (63.6%)
Total Points - 37

*Noted Kobe's teammates are 6/30 (20%) in that same time span for those wondering but didn't note Wade's or LeBron's. All 6 makes belong to Fisher according to Marc Fein even though Fisher wasn't on the team in 06-07, so no other teammate hit that year.

They also said "here is the shocker, the best in the league is Dirk, and here are his numbers"

FG - 11/24 (45.8%)
3 Point FG - 2/8 (25.05)
Free Throws - 0/0
Total Points - 24

 

[LaBrandon Aldridge]

I blame Al Horford. 10 boards today, all defensive.

 

[SAL]

Small samples are fun.

And on top of that, even pretending the samples are legitimate, how many of Kobe's teammates' looks were planned, like all of his were? And how many of them were broken plays, or loose balls, or desperate rebound-putbacks?

 

[LaBrandon Aldridge]

Actually, I blame Anthony Randolph for being a smurf and missing like half the game, then bricking 3 FTs.

Oh well, Tyson, Landry and Wall can hopefully keep my OREB lead.

 

[SAL]

I blame Al Horford. 10 boards today, all defensive.

You still got it. You have Tyson Chandler left, and he should get a few. I'd need Camby and Dirk to go off.

might have been nice to have KEVIN FUCKING LOVE this week

 

[LaBrandon Aldridge]

Might have been nice to have Devin Harris this week, because I'd be leading assists (in all likeliness) if I did. Maybe steals. Maybe.

 

[SAL]

With Love, I could've/would've had all three rebounding categories.

Cool couldawoulda, bro.
