Re: 2012 Non-Nets NBA Game Thread
Dirk looks done.
I would be shocked if he doesn't come back relatively strong next season, but you get the feeling he needs surgery on that knee to get things back to sustainable.
I'm thinking it's either something that can wait til the offseason that really won't get worse except for pain and mobility or out of nowhere in the coming few weeks ESPN and Twitter drop the bomb mid day on like a Tuesday, Dirk to have arthroscopic knee surgery, out 3 to 4 months...

I'm waiting for the "Convince Me Carmelo Anthony Is A Top 20 Player" thread on the general board.

Impossible, Dirk's game doesn't rely on athleticism, so he will be elite for 10 more years.
Deron and Dwight are a lock to go to Dallas because of Dirk's infinite longevity.

Re: 2012 Non-Nets NBA Game Thread
I'm loving this game so far.
Griffin and Paul aren't getting away with their usual antics, and they look so frustrated because of it, and it's a double-digit lead for Denver now. What a difference officials make...

This is awesome, the Clippers are flopping like crazy, and the refs aren't bailing them out, and they're crying so much about it, lol.
BTW, Mozgov is a pretty good player. I really couldn't see why he was so important to Denver that they wanted him in the trade, but the guy is a pretty good defender, and he can finish around the rim, and he has some offensive skills. His help defense is particularly impressive so far, he's always got his hands straight up, so when the Clippers flop, the refs can't call anything, because Mozgov is playing defense exactly the way he's supposed to, with his hands straight up. And he's a good shot blocker too.

Carmelo passed (gasp) to a WIDE open Shumpert (I don't think I've ever seen a more wide open player with like 40 seconds left in the game) who bricks it.
Then Pierce with the what-would-be dagger on the Knicks for eternity.

There's absolutely no way anyone can tell if that's good or not based off just replay. None.

Can we get our guys healthy just for tomorrow? I can't explain how badly I want to beat the Knicks tomorrow.
