ATL kicking the crap out the Bulls, up 24 after 3

Wow. Bulls must’ve been tired after yesterday’s game. They were blowing out the Knicks for the majority of the game but ended up only winning by 4 points

Bulls and Atlanta are both good teams.
Chicago is playing well without Rose.

3v3 game during the All-Star weekend, por favor
by The One Who Wears The Crown on Dec 22, 2012 8:45 PM EST

I wish they would do uncle drew vs kobe one on one, that would be fun
by mjtig on Dec 22, 2012 8:45 PM EST

That would awesome. They did agree…well Irving and Kobe agreed but I’m pretty sure Uncle Drew would not mind subbing in for Irving. The all-star weekend would be a perfect time for the showdown.

agreed, that would be fun

I like Isiah Thomas on nba tv, great player, good analyst, bad front office guy–hey, but he f***** up the Knicks so that is admirable
by mjtig on Dec 22, 2012 8:39 PM EST

see, i would rather he was still with the Knicks
by MHTD on Dec 22, 2012 8:43 PM EST

agree, maybe they will take him back at some point lol.
by mjtig on Dec 22, 2012 8:44 PM EST

He’ll hop back in if the Knicks win a few more games.

wow, DMC suspended indefinitely
if only this guy could get his head straight he will be a dominant player in this leage
by MHTD on Dec 22, 2012 8:45 PM EST

Yeah was just reading about that. Crazy stuff
by The One Who Wears The Crown on Dec 22, 2012 8:46 PM EST

that is the problem though, not sure he is going to do that–thought he turned a corner but obviously not.
by mjtig on Dec 22, 2012 8:46 PM EST

They really need to get him some help.
I suggest coolBeas.
by RocketSprocket on Dec 22, 2012 9:06 PM EST

he had character concerns coming in
being in SAC hasn’t alleviated any of that, if he went to a veteran team or a tough coach we wouldn’t have seen this attitude
by MHTD on Dec 22, 2012 9:11 PM EST

fair enough, but at some point he just needs to decide to do it himself, he has the talent like wtf after a while
by mjtig on Dec 22, 2012 9:13 PM EST

true
but sometimes people need the support around to make a change, otherwise they r just gonna keep their ways…look at career criminals
by MHTD on Dec 22, 2012 9:18 PM EST

He needs to play on a team with an alpha dog that tells him what to do.
When Jordan ruled the Bulls, everyone fell in line. After Jordan retired the first time, Scottie Pippen refused to go back into a playoff game because the coach drew up a last second shot for Kukoc instead of Pippen. Jordan didn’t tolerate that kind of nonsense.

Clips have looked great, might be the best bench around in term of scoring. They play good D also. Blake is better in the post, but still shaky there and they rely on threes. That bench will not be as much of a factor in the playoffs although it might, but rotations typically tighten. Solid team, but not sure if they can get by OKC in the playoffs—will be a contender for sure for the title as long as CP stays healthy.

Jazz really fouled up when they dumped Jerry Sloan.

Heat win!!
blowout!
by mjtig on Dec 22, 2012 9:49 PM EST

Bring on the Thunder!!!
by RocketSprocket on Dec 22, 2012 9:52 PM EST

3 years from now, Wade’s hand will be full of rings.
by RocketSprocket on Dec 22, 2012 9:58 PM EST

Looking forward to that(won’t mind him surpassing Bill Russel’s ring count cough cough)
