Painfully slowly getting closer to time for prime rib.....

Just thought of this. Anyone else remember last year all the talk about how there's 12 to 15 PG's better than Kyrie? Why no talk of this insane nonsense this year? So if I got this right he wasn't a top 12/15 PG last year because he played for the Cavs but now that he plays for the Celtics it's somehow changed? It's a bit odd this topic hasn't been discussed yet. Well we gotta change that!

Merry Christmas & enjoy today's NBA action everyone.


Mr. Flat Earth will always be a jackass but CELTICS IN SEVEN!!!

The season is 33 games long?

Yeah, didn't you hear? They shortened it because Lebron was too tired playing 82.


Quality post right there...got in a dig on Hurricane with a complimentary jab at Lebron.

Because the fact that there are 12-15 better pg's has already been established as irrefutable fact and no longer needs to be discussed....duh.

Merry Christmas

LAKERS IN FOUR!!

Um....

I don't remember anybody saying that.

Some people were trying to say he was a top 10 overall player. Others, like me were saying he was somewhere between 15-20.

Even me, the biggest Kyrie critic would not have said he wasn't a top 10 PG. unless, the argument was that he wasn't a PG at all (which he wasn't). But yeah, last year I had him behind the following:

Curry
Harden
Westbrook
CP3
Wall
Lillard

For sure. Kyrie was somewhere in the tier with:

Lowry
IT3
Kyrie

That would put him between 7-9.

This year, he has moved up a tier with CP3 Wall and Lillard. You want to rank him 4, I wouldn't argue, but a very valid case can be made for any of those guys ahead of Kyrie.

You sure put a lot more thought into this than I did.

Looking forward to Hassan Whiteside coming back so the Heat could suck again and I could extend my lead in my bet...Current standings:

• Pacers 19-14
• Heat 17-16
• Lakers 11-20

Merry Christmas to all and bow down to HurricaneDij

Also you're 2 games up on a team who has been dealing with a ridiculous amount of injuries, went on a long west coast trip already, and played 8 games on the road against the West. The Heat also already wrapped up season series with the Warriors, Spurs, and Celtics.

The Pacers on the other hand longest road trip been 3 games, yet to go on a west coast road trip, and been fairly healthy.....but you're only 2 games up on Miami lol

Settle down lol.

49 more games left for both teams. This isn't college basketball where the regular season is just over 30 games long.

Lmfao.....

The fact that the mighty Rockets let the game come down to a single bad call against the chronically broken, woefully inept Clippers is some shameful shit.

But, that was clearly the 5'9 Juwan Evans, aka Harden stopper's 6th foul.

Harden stopper. I love it!

I can't remember. Who was the official Kobe stopper? I remember it being someone not all that good. Wasn't it like Rueben Patterson or something?

Evans did really lock Harden down though. Dude only had 51.

Yup.

Ruben the rapist Patterson.

I'm joking....BUT!!!!

Come on, he is a whole foot taller.

He should have had 70.

Midget Isiah and Kay Felder would look like Wilt and Shaq against Juwan in the post.

This game should have never been that close and Harden quit again.

Nobody that actually wants to stay in the game does shit like that to the refs.

Especially against a Team that shits away multiple games in the last 2 minutes on the regular.

Agreed.

I thought he did well. Those two charges at the end basically ended the game.
