2300827, NBA Thursday 2-20-14
Posted by CherNic, Thu Feb-20-14 04:02 PM
Starting early today. Russy playing tonight. Maybe some more trades announced too.

Nuggets @ Bucks
Thunder @ Heat
Rockets @ Warriors
2300836, more interested in what D12 looks like in back to backs
Posted by bentagain, Thu Feb-20-14 04:14 PM
he looked as close to 100% as I've seen since his surgery

if he can show out in a back to back

HOU could be a problem for OKC
2300868, Fuck Golden State as Usual
Posted by ShawndmeSlanted, Thu Feb-20-14 05:31 PM
Bogut not playing though :(
2300873, Back atcha ***finger guns***

Both teams on the second night of a back-to-back, but for the Rockets it was more like an extended scrimmage.

I expect Howard to do what he likes, since Jermaine is the only center on the roster right now; the Bosnian doesn't count.
2300879, I think Jermaine actually usually plays Dwight well
Posted by ShawndmeSlanted, Thu Feb-20-14 06:06 PM

Brains vs Brawn. We'll see how this new Dwight does though. I expect Jlin to have a nice game now that he knows hes not being traded again and back home.

2300900, The rebounding will be the biggest problem
Posted by Tek4mula, Thu Feb-20-14 07:31 PM
Warriors got trounced on the boards last night in Sacto and they were playing without Boogie. The Warriors have enough trouble slowing down the Houston offense without getting crunched on the offensive boards.

I'm not confident for this one.
2300915, Russy Back!!! Let's go!!!

2300920, yeah, that was funny...
Posted by Dstl1, Thu Feb-20-14 08:26 PM
dude prolly been workin out with a picture of KD on his mirror like Stallone in Rocky 4.
2301074, i think that 1st quarter was really about durant getting hype
Posted by southphillyman, Fri Feb-21-14 10:27 AM
more so then the heat caring if they lost another regular season game to the thunder
durant might still win the mvp
but last night erased any doubt that lebron is still being head and shoulders above durant
2300921, okc spotted them some points last time too.
Posted by BrooklynWHAT, Thu Feb-20-14 08:32 PM
then they sat perkins...

2300931, so fucking good to see westbrook back, man.

2300933, Russ just made Wade look 87 years old

2300949, Definitely the wrong game to bring Westbrook back
Posted by J_Stew, Thu Feb-20-14 10:00 PM
Totally screwed up everyone's rhythm, dudes standing around like they don't know what they're supposed to do.
2300956, last chance for OKC to make a push
Posted by Dstl1, Thu Feb-20-14 10:25 PM

2300958, welp...that's that

2300960, Hope Bron's ok, that was one of the greatest finishes ever
Posted by J_Stew, Thu Feb-20-14 10:37 PM
2300961, I know it's tired and cliche, but god damn. LeBron is UNREAL.

2301001, UghDala & JO doing work on Dwight/Beard as usual
Posted by FILF, Thu Feb-20-14 11:57 PM
Besides, T-Jones defense is over-rated....he has been getting murked consistently this past month or so.
2301013, Klay can't check Beard nor Parsons...there is only one UghDala
Posted by FILF, Fri Feb-21-14 01:39 AM
2301011, get that shyt out of there white bol
Posted by FILF, Fri Feb-21-14 01:38 AM
2301012, oneal ATE that shit
Posted by southphillyman, Fri Feb-21-14 01:38 AM
clutch block on parsons, smh
2301014, The offenses down the stretch and in OT have been comedy lol
Posted by LA2Philly, Fri Feb-21-14 01:41 AM
Harden isos, Lee forcing and unable to do much vs Harden/Parsons, Curry pounding the air out of the ball.
2301015, RE: NBA Thursday 2-20-14
Posted by southphillyman, Fri Feb-21-14 01:47 AM
snapped the fuck out that win streak
2301016, Pretty ugly at times, but a good grind it out win
Posted by mrhood75, Fri Feb-21-14 01:49 AM
Couldn't stop a Harden, but we managed to keep Howard irrelevant much of the game. Lee handled his biz early, Curry came on strong late, and O'Neal was a g. All without Bogut too. Good enough.
2301050, Like I said, JO gives Dwight problems

That block he made at the end, Bogut doesnt make that. He probably just fouls.

You guys did a great job of stopping our penetration from everyone except Harden down teh stretch. once he started making those stepbacks, I knew we were gonna get stuck in iso mode.


Its tough cause those were some good as 1 on 1 plays but you cnat keep going to that.
2301076, I didn't know JO was still in the the league, lol

2301019, What a great Thursday for Pop's crew
Posted by FILF, Fri Feb-21-14 02:08 AM
-Gain an additional half a game cushion on the Rockets for the 2nd seed
-Dubs inch closer to the 6th seed (Wouldn't want to play them in the 1st rd.....PHX/Dallas are barbeque chicken)
-OKC is running away w/ the #1 seed but you never know w/ the Russy situation.....it doesn't hurt to hang around within 2-3 games.
2301061, i can't front..i was pleased to see blood.
Posted by Cenario, Fri Feb-21-14 09:45 AM
it meant he wasn't faking for once.
2301063, damn ... lol
Posted by celery77, Fri Feb-21-14 09:50 AM

If Bron is a 'bitch' - then what would that make you?
