NBA Thread 09-10

well tonite the mavs and jazz are playing the ugliest game ive seen in a while.
carroll is terrible btw.

the real game is okc and la. LA has to play powell and walton is not looking good. Durant may be the most talented player in the nba.

Suns just beat Miami, pulled it together in the 4th after trailing all night but a 104-96 win.

still undefeated 4-0.

Probably lose tomorrow against Orlando though, but this was a good win for the Suns 5 game road trip of: Miami (Won tonight) Orlando Tomorrow, Boston later this week, then 76's and wizards next week.

Probably be 7-2 after this trip.

Did Blake take over your account or something?

[Eric Scholwinski]

in one thread he says the suns, no, okc and one other team (i forgot) are all bottom tier teams but in this one says they might pose a threat to the Lakers.

make up your mind feez!

plus ranking jazz and houston above the suns and NO is silly, they're all about the same imo.

I'm going to forever link you back to this thread and this quote. Just remember that you said it, I didn't.

[Eric Scholwinski]

this is how i see it (As of right now, thinks can always change):

Lakers - Spurs = first tier

Dallas, Denver and Portland 2nd Tier

3rd Tier would be NO, Jazz, Suns and houston.

might have been ugly early but it was pretty late....dirk goes huge....again....breaks aguirres record for points in a quarter and brings us back from down 16 in the 4th


or the refs had a bundle n the mavs

[J. Fees]

i would say OKC is at the bottom, but rising, a lot of really good talent. And when i said bottom, i meant the bottom of the teams that have a chance, i didnt even throw in MIN or LAC. OKC is still really young, but Durant is the real deal.

anyway dirk went bananas in the 4th, set a new record.

[Eric Scholwinski]

guess the two friends pulled it off for their teams in the final quarter.

nash had 30 points, dirk 40.

Very rare for someone to make me sad on here, but those excerpts really did make me sad for a minute or two.

Oh well. Not gonna stop watching talent.

Can't deny that, but he's in a CP3 scenario when you really think about it. One man is not a team. He would do better elsewhere.

[J. Fees]

nah, but this is like jv team for durant. he'll go somewhere else, just doesnt make sense financially for him to stay.

nah, denver is better than the spurs, and the spurs dont match up well against the nuggs.

i would say NO seems to be falling, with no height talent other than west, and he shoots to many js. Jazz and Suns seem to be holding, and H Town is rising.

I need to see more than the Blazers and the Jazz before you make me a believer on that one, J.

ariza is a beast. and por is still young. believe me the rockets are good. they are a 'sum of the parts' teams

[DREX]

dumping ariza for artest was not a good move
