This announcer...."Living LaMelo-loco!!!!"

 

[tlance]

So didn't age well and file under players can improve?

Nance is probably better than TT now. So that comment wouldn’t lowball Bam as much as Wiggy was trying to lowball him if taken in current context.

Ok set it up

Has to be "approved." Keep an eye on it and should be good to go in 20 minutes or so.

This Heat-Rockets Trade Pairs Up John Wall & Jimmy Butler

The Miami Heat could use another dynamic addition at the NBA trade deadline. Could Houston Rockets star John Wall be a potential option?

LOL at this. Dragic has a no trade clause I believe.

I'll bet you. I have an annoying feeling the Lakers will get cocky and lose this one.

What odds are you giving me?

Lakers played like ass on Saturday. Actually think they win this one rather easily.

15+ IMO

Hill, Maledon, Muscala and Roby

No Jared Dudley for the Lakers. How will they survive?

Lol, yeah well these guys have been playing a lot of minutes.

I don't think Kemba's 100% yet, doesn't seem like he is.

Maybe he is 100% and just sucks?

 

[trojanfan12]

The only thing I'm almost sure of is a lot of today's players would have had a helluva time with how physical the game was back in the day.

In today's game contact above the shoulders is now reviewed. Whereas back in the day this was just a common foul.

Then after that mugging Rodman pushed Pippen into the seats behind the basket. For those not old enough to remember the Bad Boy's they'll never fully understand how physical they were.

lol

True. Heck, that Kevin McHale clotheline of Rambis that damn near caused a brawl was a common foul.

Today...they'd give him a flagrant 2, suspend him, fine him and probably file a police report. lol

Lakers played like ass on Saturday.

And they still won.

 

[bksballer89]

And they still won.

Who said they didn't win?

 

[DJ Fieri]

This announcer in the Rockets-Hornets game is on drugs.

Sure but I also think a lot of players’ would thrive being physical in that era that aren’t allowed to in this era. That’s why I think his comment is fair but not fair to all. So I guess basically it goes both ways

FUCK!!

No point in even watching the game now.

 

[DJ Fieri]

LaMelo Ball is a really good player.
