Tywin et al. #201 Posted January 4 Butler is a snake. All the reports of being a locker room cancer seem to be true. A top 20 player who plays both ways should not find themselves on three different teams in the span of two years. And I'm guessing he'll be on a fourth next year.

briantw #203 Posted January 7 How the fuck do you get fired after a 22 point win? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He should have gotten fired last year, when it was apparent that his methods were totally not going to work. That team is a wreck, and he's mostly responsible. Getting fired after a win is ironic, but it's probably been in the works since the Butler thing, if not before. Edited January 7 by Relic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkynJay #207 Posted January 8 Watching this joke of a game. Rockets have 23 free throws in the first half to five for the nuggets. Twice they have jumped sidewise into defenders for three freebies. I have watched almost every minute the nuggets have played this year but I may not finish this one. I repeat, the Rockets are painful to watch and about half of their game plan needs to be legislated out of the nba. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkynJay #208 Posted January 8 Yep. As i type the last post Harding gets three freebies for a 'shot' in which he is facing 270 away from the basket; jumps and heaves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tywin et al. #209 Posted January 9 Wiggins goes for 40 and 10. Every now and then he shows you what he can be, but he never sustains it. Also, Klay scored 43 points while dribbling the ball 4 times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ramsay B. #210 Posted January 11 (edited) Anyone watching this amazing Spurs-Thunder game? Aldridge has 51 and Westbrook has 24 assists right now. Wild ETA: Nothing like 5 minute replay reviews to break up a game. Jesus ETA2: Aldridge- 56pts, 9 boards Westbrook- 24 pts, 24 assists, 13 boards Edited January 11 by Ramsay B.

IamMe90 #211 Posted January 11 Finally beating Houston, at Houston, was a rapturous experience. Giannis launching a heat-seeking missile at Harden was just the icing on the cake. In all seriousness though, mad respect to Harden still. While I thought he got a lot of ticky-tack 3pt foul calls, he still absolutely iced our defense until the last couple minutes. His step back 3s are just murderous. Fuck him, but mad props all the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tywin et al. #215 Posted January 15 I have made my distaste with Harden's game clear, but some of the stats I'm seeing are insane. He's scored 30 or more points in each of his last 17 games, and over the course of that time he's averaging over 40 ppg. That's nuts! And just the other night he scored 38 points while going 1-17 from three. How??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigFatCoward #216 Posted January 16 (edited) GSW starting to warm up. Presumably to show that they don't need a dominant centre. 50 pt quarter and 5 on the bounce. Edited January 16 by BigFatCoward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The statistics I just heard are insane. A deep three in the NBA is considered a shot from between 30 and 35 feet. The league average this year on those shots is 22%. Curry’s is 54%, and he takes more than any other player, which means he’s inflating that 22% stat. Furthermore, over the last four plus seasons, during the span of the Warriors run, Curry is hitting deep threes at a 48% clip. Curry’s lethalness from so far is what makes the Warriors so unstoppable because everyone else is getting easier shots. Durant is the best player on the Warriors, but Curry is by far the most important one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
