NBA: 2012-2013 Season

[a6m5]

We need to drop this. Don't get me wrong, I still don't agree with anything Mr Geez has posted, but we are taking over NBA discussion thread over Carmelo Anthony of all players(no offense), and on such subjective topic. I still believe I'm right, Mr Geez believes otherwise, everybody else is going "shut the 🤬 up".

I apologize to everyone involved. I handled it poorly, too.

Onto what's been a hot topic during my commute on sports radio, Derrick Rose. Most people I've read online or hear on radio thinks his body is ready, but Rose is not ready to go mentally. Some goes as far as labeling him a chicken(expected), or Adidas is influencing the delay.

You guys know my team is knee-bust city Blazers. I for one support Rose.

We keep hearing Doctor has cleared Rose to play couple of months ago. What scares me here, and why I need more details on this is, is the doctor taking into the account that Rose is a freak specimen? This guy moves with so much speed & power, all the while pulling off a ballet/acrobat move in midair. Whatever is wrong with his knee, it's going to be tested with more stress than those of your average NBA guards'.

This opinion(maybe paranoia) comes from Greg Oden's knees injuries(mother of Blazer knee injuries). There was one theory that suggested that his joins were not strong enough to support his freakishly powerful muscles. Some even suggested steroids use. We'll never know. Good luck to the guy wherever he goes. Except in Miami Omnis, except in Miami.

Bulls are the troll team of the NBA!!!!

The Bad News Bulls strike again!

 

[a6m5]

You are 🤬 me. Really?

Well, this happens from time to time to much superior teams that sat too long. It's a wet dream, but if it happened, this would be one of the greatest upset of all-time.

It won't happen though. lol

 

[sumbrownkid]

No the Bulls are not going to beat Miami, but at least we can give them PTSD.

 

[a6m5]

I guess it's sort of like Indiana vs NY Part II. Indiana has better odds, but both of those teams lack consistent firepower. It would be nice to be proven wrong.

 

[sumbrownkid]

How funny would it be though if the Pacers and the Bulls are the ones contesting the ECF?

That said, I think the true ECF is going on in the second round right now.

 

[Stavingo]

Bulls are the troll team of the NBA!!!!

The Bad News Bulls strike again!

According to BleacherReport:

"The Heat lose for just the 3rd time in their last 44 games. Two of those losses have been to the Bulls."

I really hope Bulls pull an upset

Point taken. Props to the Bulls. How could any sports fans not like what they are seeing from Chicago? Don't rest until you are officially out. Go Bulls!

Me too, along with America and the rest of the world.

Thibs mantra being practiced on the court. I don't know what that man does but he knows how to put fire into his players.

As much as I personally believe that it's the player's job to get motivated(how many millions are you going to make in the league?), sad truth is that head coach does play a major role in this department.

His next contract just got more expensive!

 

[Stavingo]

Damn, the Spurs and the Warriors game is going down to the wire, Double OT baby

 

[a6m5]

M. A. N. U. I can't express how much I like him without swearing right now.

On a unrelated note, Fisher fined for flopping.

I'm gonna go look for Ginobili avatar I used to use.

Edit: This one's for you baby!

 

[McLaren]

Oh my goodness, that was an insane game! But, this was youth vs. experience & this is why the Spurs are the toughest veterans in the league.

Go Spurs!

I watched him pull up for that 30 ft three and then he nailed that 3 pointer, absolutely amazing

Go Spurs!

It was, Green and Thompson fouled out and Curry played every minute, talk about youth and lack of fatigue

 

[a6m5]

I just went to real time game tracker thing on CBS when you mentioned the double o/t and saw that Manu nailed a "three-pointer". I had no idea it was a 30-footer. AWESOME!

Edit: Curry? 44 points against San Anton? Jesus.

 

[Stavingo]

He shot from the longest point possible out of all the places on the arc and he still nailed it 👍

 

[a6m5]

It can't be much more than the 23ft.

Edit: info I found says 23' 9" at the top.

If Miami loses the series, Pat Riley is going to trade Battier to OKC for Kevin Durant.

 

[mr_geez]

I love LBJ's game and I think he is the best player in the NBA at the moment by far (it is a travesty that he didn't win MVP trophy in unanimous fashion), having said that, this picture really made me LOL hard:

Pacers forgot to show up in the 2nd half.

Wait, he didn't? I thought they said a week ago he would be the first player to win unanimously 4 times in a row?

Carmelo Anthony got one #1 vote. I'm not a James fan as you guys know, but I don't know how anyone would want to give the award to anyone else. When Chris Paul used to be fairly healthy, I thought I'd rather vote for Paul, but that's certainly not the case this season.

 

[sumbrownkid]

Well his MVP didn't mean 🤬 to the Bulls on game 1.

And if any of you guys watched game 1, you could've heard Kenny Smith on TNT say "Some MVP he is" right before they went to commercial.

 

[a6m5]

Hey, if he sucked rest of the series & lose to the Bulls, I'm all for it!

 

[Stavingo]

True that

Damn that Knicks and Pacers game was crazy, apparently the Knicks went on a 30-2 run in the 4th.

 

[sumbrownkid]

Well thibs, we got a war.

Rose has to be feeling this loss cutting deep.

 

[McLaren]

They said Rose may suit up for Game 3 earlier today. I think after tonight, he needs to just sit out the playoffs. Even if they do need his help with the possible suspensions coming.

Chicago had a bad game like this against the Nets & was only just able to get past them. But, this is Miami. And Miami to the Nets are at opposite ends of the spectrum. I really feel for Chicago fans because the team is fighting, but it's a 44 point game.

If it was even possible to win, Miami would have to be cut down to their 5 worst players, & Robinson, Belinelli, & Boozer would have to explode making them better than even Jordan, Pippen, & Rodman.

 

[Omnis]

Man, I hate Steve Kerr. He's SUCH a Bulls homer! That Birdman block that Noah got all butthurt and ejected over wasn't a goaltending. I don't think Ray Allen got fouled on the other side, but how are you gonna call that a goaltending? The refs got it right.

So tired of Noah. Sit your ugly hairbun ass down.
