2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

Love is on the perimeter- but he is also in the post a lot more under Lue- i mean- if he was always on the perimeter no way is averaging about 11 boards a game.

Its crazy to me Bosh was at 7 or less rebounds a game a couple seasons in Miami- especially like i said- its not like there were world-beaters playing center and sucking up rebounds. LeBron is a great rebounder for a SF- so that explains some of it- but obviosuly you see Love still rebounding at an elite level competing with LeBron, and TT (who is also over 10 a game)...its pretty amazing considering the Cavs are a good shooting team and play at a pace that is around league average.

Why was Bosh never not selected as an All Star?

People who really watch/understand the game understood how important he was.
Its no surprise you dont get it.

Westbrook is having a monster season. He should be league MVP.

 

[DJ Fieri]

That was a great Navy-Army game....

Love is playing better with James than Bosh ever did?







Let's see Love get as many titles with James as Bosh did.....such blatant dick sucking.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yep.
Against Spurs to clinch it.
I LOVE how you have one LOVE D clip to show over and over.
Too funny.

Love's defense has been one of his biggest criticisms over the years.

Bosh was Miami's version of Pau Gasol....

Yet doesn't understand the difference between "your" and "you're"

Or Jared Dudley. He called him Jarded Dudley and can't spell obviously.











Spelling isn't his forte.

He's either only one behind Bosh, or only has half of what Bosh got. Depending on which side of the argument you're on lol.

One thing I don't miss about Wade is getting back late on defense as he cry to the refs. Already did that a few times tonight

Warriors look like shit in Memphis (first half). Turnovers, missed shots, the works.

An ass kicking is nice to go through every now and then.

I wouldn't call it 'nice' but it may be necessary for a team to keep sharp.

To be fair to Memphis they are the best defensive team in the league.

He do do that.

 

[bksballer89]

Not sure if there is another team (outside of the Clippers) who complains more as a group than the Warriors.

Last year - Bosh averaged 21 points per game Love averaged 16 points per game - Bosh averaged 7 rebounds to Love's 10, but Bosh was averaging 16 shots per game to Love's 12. I think if Love is taking less shots, he should be free to rebound more so I wouldn't necessarily be calling Bosh out as being that much weaker in rebounds. Both are about even in stats, but if both of them were healthy and I was being guaranteed the health of both players and given a choice, I have always thought of Bosh as a stronger player who changes the opponents shots by being there on defense, but Love did get better last season and if the Cavaliers win another championship, then Love I think there is a good case for Love.

they are missing half their freaking team.

it just happens- GSW sucked tonight- happens to every team i n the league- not a big deal. shit 4th qtr just started- they will prob make it respectable.

 

[WiggyRuss]

LeBron was insane tonight against a very good defensive team.

17/24 from the field, 5/10 from 32, 9 rebounds, 10 assists, 3 steals, 44 points. its why he is The King

gotta say- Shumpert keeps playing great ball. playing very solid defense and again shot great from 3- 4/6 tonight. what an improvement- i was worried about this guy last year because he did not play well at times. thus far this year he is playing the best ball of his career.

 

[bksballer89]

The Heat are much better than their record. Just need to get healthy. Tonight Richardson returned and they look so much better than they have this week. They will only play even better once the other guys return.
