I thought GT5 was pushed back again? Is it for real on now?

RJ is playing his ass off so far this season. 50%+ shooting, 44% 3 point shooting. Spurs are 11-1, best record in the NBA. Everyone was laughing at him thinking he was done, but wait a minute now. Dont know if he is playing defense, probably not, the whole Spurs team has stopped playing D and turned into the Suns, buts its working for them.

Hopefully. I hear it's definitely on the 24th now.

Knock the Wii all you want, but good games are good games, no matter what console. You're just missing out.

:P

or a PS3.. besides, I'm too busy playing New Vegas!


After Fallout 3, I just can't get myself to crack the seal and start an entire new Fallout (I just beat the game in September). I loved Fallout 3, bugs and all, but there are points where it is long and dragged out and I also have a huge list of games I still need to play and buy.

Yeah I understand how you feel. I bought Fallout 3 GOTY edition and after I was done completing the game (Discovering every location, every bobblehead and just destroying every enclave I saw)in Nov 09, I took a break and didn't delve into the DLC 'til January/February. Since it's been almost year since I last explored the wasteland with my handy plasma rifle, I'm obviously enjoying running away from Deathclaws and killing people if I like their clothing again.

Showed up late to practice. Anyone been keeping up with Eric Gordon? He's averaging 23 ppg on good %'s, I mean sure the Clippers are like 1-100, but I guess it's not that comical anymore when I say OJ Mayo is NOT a hands down better prospect / player than EG...

Damn you for crushing my dreams!

And no, I don't think it's a stretch at all to call Gordon the better player or prospect, but if Mayo had the same opportunities Gordon did, he would probably be very similar statistically.

Probably. The two are basically twins. Gordon is better at getting to the line so I don't know if OJ's scoring numbers would be as high but OJ is better off the ball and since neither player is a true #1 option I think on a typical championship contender I'd rather have Mayo.

Matt Barnes shot 5-for-5 from three-point range and 5-for-5 on free throws Friday night in Minnesota. In NBA history, only two other bench players have done that since the invention of the three-point shot in 1979. Bostjan Nachbar did it in 2007, as did Craig Ehlo in 1996.


BOOOOKKKKIIIIIII!

Gordon is the better player...Mayo has a chance to be a good starter in this league, so many flawas in his game that need to be cleaned up...my gamble of the year...knew he would ride my bench if he starting crapping it up...and it just happened, look for me to increase my lead even further...

been meaning to state this somewhere...

Watching the game I was shocked and even more so now, with the explosion of Blake Griffin on the NBA scene...If I had to give somebody credit, Humphries (Brook/Favors) more or less held Blake to 11pts on 8fgs and 3 rebs... :o

AND I think 6 of those 11 points came in the 4th quarter when the game was already out of reach. They did a nice job on him.
