HalfHawk

Nimbers.

I actually cringe more watching him post up than watching him shoot a jumper. The form and technique in his jump shot is agreeably off and unproductive, but I damn, near hurl at the TV when I watch him play with his back to the basket.

Some say the Hawks are still on the court, turning the ball over to this very day.

I hate Josh shooting jumpers just as much as the next guy, but what else can he go to? [*]Can't post up other PF's. [*]Can't dribble. [*]Can't finish at the rim. [*]Can't play the P&R. [*]Can't spot up. [*]Can't create for himself or others. I know I'm not the only one who can't deal with his s*** any longer, just trade the guy.

Trading one headcase for another isn't the move we need.

Tonight's stat line for Marvin... 6 points on 2-5 shooting, 5 rebounds, and 3 TO's. "Ballin"

37 points, 12 assists, 6 rebounds, and 4 steals in his first game as a Rocket. Very insightful thread indeed.

That's what I thought, but the addition of Asik still isn't showing up. I added him to my lineup this morning, but the only way I can make my new lineup appear is if I check my projected lineup for tomorrow. Currently it's still showing Bynum in the lineup and Harris on the bench.

Earlier today I dropped Harris, picked up Asik, and switched him in for the injured Bynum. How long does it take for roster and lineup changes to take affect?

It's opening week and I'm already out three starters. Great..

Last season, Harden's per-36 w/ K.D. off the court was ridiculous, but I still get a "Joe" feeling about the guy. Much respect to his game, but I've never quite seen him as elite. The per-36 in question can be seen here at this link. http://i.imgur.com/5TZhN.jpg

I assume all of these newly introduced rules and guidelines were a sort of binge clean up before he packed his bags. Anyways, there you have it.. end of the Stern era. http://www.nba.com/2...s=iref:nbahpt3a

An aging Gasol and a 2025 first round pick? Thanks, but no thanks.

He's consistently been just as good as Lopez in their match-ups. http://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/h2h_finder.cgi?request=1&p1=lopezbr01&p2=horfoal01

I tried finding an example of Al efficiently guarding another center for you, but all I could find was stat-lines of him making 7'2", 260 pound Roy Hibbert look like his b***h. Does that work for you? http://www.basketbal...01&p2=hibbero01

This is Al and Teague, not Stockton and Malone. If it were only as simple as "pick and roll with Al to get him shots"...

Let's be honest here, Al has a below average inside game and he relies on the mid range jumper for most of his scoring. Now if nobody on this team is a reliable distributor, why should we force the ball upon Al for a bucket? If you can't distribute, you can't distribute. Play to your strengths.

Lou goes 5-6 from the field, finishes with 18 points, and you're complaining about that..? Would you prefer Joe being back and giving us a 13 point, 4-21 shooting performance?

Thank you! I was losing my wits trying to find another link.

Taken down due to copyright. It was good while it lasted.

http://www.ilemi.bz/...vs-Miami-Heat-/ Not the best quality, but it beats watching for changes in the box score.

Is it already full or are we still in that period where only people from last year can sign up? I've tried joining, but I'm getting the following error message.

http://dmmx2.nba.com/videourlredirect?&project=/bballops/bballops_Flopping_Video_10_3_12 It seems to me that they're solely going after the Emmy award winning flops and not minor embellishments, which is understandable seeing as how the league office would be venturing into a lot of gray area by trying to distinguish minor flop from legitimate contact response. On a side note, I'm extremely embarrassed to see Josh make an appearance in what is basically the flopping instructional video... Come on, Josh.. really?

Growing up in Atlanta, I have always learned to take the good with the bad when it comes to post season failures. It helps to a certain extent..For example, the Braves are now out of the playoffs, but as a result there is free student parking at Turner Field everyday. Granted it is not much, it is enough to simply get me to the start of the NBA season when I can get all optimistic again before having my dreams crushed.

Delusional Boston fans blatantly pitching their chauvinistic "insight"? Well, that's nothing new. But this.. implying that Brandon Bass is in anyway more valuable than Josh? That's borderline trolling.
