I love it! That's the way it should be. You should hate your opponent. Don't shake his hand. Particularly when it's a dirty, cheating flopper like Paul. Cousins has an old school nastiness about him.

Swaggy P really did land exactly where he should have. He always loved playing in LA.

Hopefully Kobe can help him learn to light his own fire and stay more focused.

Some how I think that will translate into this for Nick though. :lol:

And that's what has kept me from ever really becoming a CP3 fan. I can't stand to see player that talented resort to that level of BS. Its just so weak. Go beat them with your skill. Same thing had me hating on LeBron.

So glad the league is trying to lean this up. There is no place for that in an NBA game. Not at that level.

No.

Not when the story was it being his first start, against Miami, and he posted those numbers.

He backed that up in the next game, in Miami, in a 2 pt loss that came down to the buzzer.

27 min 17 pts 7 boards 4 assists 9 FTs 1 Turnover

Not bad for a rookie after only 12 games and only his 2nd start.

Big Baby is back for them now. They have some talent on that team. T Harris is getting close to returning as well.

I'm probably Ola's biggest fan, but you don't just pretend 8 to's didn't happen when evaluating a game. Well, you did, but somebody being objective wouldn't.

Love the Cousins video nate posted. That's Chris f'n Paul - future HOFer who Thomas probably idolized - interesting dynamics at play.


:roll:

It has nothing to do with being objective. I wasn't doing to total player profile. I was just pointing out his first start and some good stats he posted. Which I said. Talk about not being able to see things objectively.

Sincerely

VO's probably 2nd biggest fan.

Go beat them with your skill.? -- He does that every night.

But, yeah, it's a BS play by him. Unless DMC got him with the point of his beard? :)

JJ went off and the Nets still lost to the struggling Pistons. They are 3-10 now and the Knicks are 3-9. Gotta love it. :lol:

They both don't have draft picks. So tanking is absolutely useless. 8-)

Knicks and nets have to start making some changes and it's not necessarily the coaches that are the problem.

It looks like ATL and DEN could be getting a good 1st in this draft.

the knicks are screwed. Imagine the uproar when DEN or whoever it is that has their 1st rnd
pick (unprotected) reaps that harvest.

You hear folks saying that any team with Melo is a lock for the playoffs. Even in the
weak east, I'm not completely convinced.

It is 2 pick swaps(next year and 2016) to Denver, with the picks coming to the Knicks also shipped out. Basically New York's only draft help is coming in the 1st round in 2015. They traded their seconds away also.

More win now foolishness, only the Knicks and Nets took it to the extreme. EG hasn't gone quite that far but he is going down the same road, the road to failure. EG knows that road well.

Whoa. I know that +\- is not an exact measurement of anything specific.

But STAT logged an impressive -29 in 20 minutes of play in the Knicks loss to the Clippers last night.

MAN, the Cavs are down 20 to the Celtics. They may get another high lotto pick this year.
