WOW! I just remembered how boring Eastern Conference games are.

meh, he's Jewish....theres a difference...right? :unsure:



I'm a little behind, I mean I have been gone for almost 4 months lol



the same Yi they traded to New Jersey for Richard Jefferson? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA

Maybe. :laugh:

tbf I still like Hayley.

Doh! You got me. >_< At least I didn't say TJ Ford. lol.

Ben "The Great" Gordon coming off the bench and scoring 8 points in a 2 minute span in the 4th is pretty amazing, yet again.

What are you gonna say next about him? He should change his name to Ben "Jordan"? :shifty:

 

[Soulpower]

SPOILERS!!! Ben Gordon is only "good" because he's always facing the other teams 2nd unit.

lol, failure.

Bulls looked good tonight. Tyrus getting a double-double and Rose finishing 1 assist shy of getting one is pretty impressive. Gordon scoring more points than minutes played is awe-inspiring. STARTER, plz.

He won't be as good if he starts. They'll put the other team's best defender on him, and he'll struggle. He's best used as a 6th man who can abuse everyone else's bench players.

lol @ bynum and Oden looking horrible

it would probably help if Phil actually ran plays for Bynum other than backdoor lobs that arent there

and is it me, or is Oden injured? I guess thats what happens when you're a 43 year old rookie.

 

[Soulpower]

Bynum pulled Oden down in the 1st quarter, it looked like Oden twisted an ankle or something.

i just told my friend yesterday that oden was gonna end up getting injured... he said i was wrong. lol

and ya ben gordan has a really streaky shot but hes not consistent enough to be a starter. hes fine as a sixth man...

 

[gamebreaker]

lol @ Oden getting injured for the 2nd year in a row.
Celtics and Lakers both looked good last night and also the Cavs.
Anderson Varejao from the Cavs was hustling all night long, he's a great defender and he's good down low.
Varejao > Wallace
And let's all hope that the Magic can kick some ass tonight against Atlanta. I wanna see if their offense improved from last year.

 

[Hometown Kid]

Atlanta is another team that could cause a little ruckus this year. Acie Law and Al Horford to compliment Joe Johnson (underrated) could turn into something special...they need more depth though. =/

They got so close of eliminating Boston in the 1st Round of the NBA Playoffs last year, they might actually do something good this year...
They're a pretty young team too with some talent.
I don't know if Zaza Pachulia is still on the team, he was a great player.

ya ive always like varejao. i have his jersey. hes a great hustle player buts not good offensively. wallace is still a better defender and hes a veteran so thats why hes the starter...

-Cavs looked decent, but the Celtics obviously outplayed them.
-Poor Oden is down which sucks
-Hot Atlanta should be good this year
-Chris Paul = my pick for MVP
-OH wait... DRose my pick for MVP(def. rookie of year) =P
-Went to game last night, fucking outstanding game, though yeah its the Bucks, but still lol
