What an amateur, he'll never be like Metta at this rate. But he's only 27 so he still has time to make alterations to his game.

Westbrook and JR Smith... I can't even stand that they exist...

On another note... GSW's jerseys with sleeves suck the world... That is all.

Huge game for Utah tonight. The Knicks just received a blow with no Amare for 6 weeks and Melo is questionable. C'mon Knicks, pull through.

D Rose has just got a clearance. Reportedly he went AWOL at practice today. I wish Chicago gets off his back. Guy just wants to be ready to go all out and not hold back. So what if its next year?! Your star will be ready to beast. I say have him come back next season.

Hey just heard that Raja Bell got waived. Magic and Wilbon say that he is headed to the Lakers. I thought that wasnt possible. Can anyone clarify?

Kobe’s trash talk got on Durant, Westbrook’s nerves during Olympics

…source says the Black Mamba talked relentless smack during the Olympics that the Thunder stars weren’t going back to the Finals after the Lakers acquired Steve Nash and then added Dwight Howard right before the U.S. played Spain for the gold medal. Kobe also made a point of guarding Westbrook during practices and pumping him up, the theory being that he wanted to incite Russ to bump heads with KD over who the team’s best player is. (If you think that’s too conspiratorial to be real, you don’t know Kobe.) KD, in particular, got tired of hearing him. For what it’s worth: KD and Westbrook’s combined 69 points is the highest single-game total they’ve posted this season.

Just saw DeAndre Jordan's dunk.... Oh My God... Brandon Knight should be forced to retire.

EDIT: I should pay more attention to Sofa King.

Amazing dunk.

Post #920 » by **Slava** » Mon Mar 11, 2013 4:29 am

Yeah, even I can't hate on the Slippers for that. That was dunk of the year.
