I came across this gem on the Pistons board, but I figured that I'd post it here. I found it funny when Jordan Crawford chastised Kris Humphries by telling him "Give it to me! Don't look for nobody else!" at the 1:42 second mark

Maybe I just have a weird sense of humor, but I laughed for about 30 seconds

They must be bullying Humphries aka Mr. Kardashian over there :lol:

I'm shocked to see the Golden State Warriors almost 3 games out of the Western Conference playoff picture. I always thought it was a mistake for them to let Jarrett Jack go. He was arguably their 2nd most important player last season

As a Sixers fan, take it from me when I say that Andre Iguodala is way overrated in the NBA. I couldn't wait for us to let him go. Too bad the Lakers sold us the damaged goods of Andrew Bynum, but I can honestly say that I like optimistic about our future now that Iguodala is gone

He was pretty impressive. 28 points on 9-21 shooting including 5-8 from behind the arc. He also had 14 of the teams 22 assists. Kemba is going to have a tough assignment tonight

Jennings is one of my favorite young guards, but I know his game inside-out, and Kemba's tenacity is the exact type of energy that'll wreak havoc on him. I seriously doubt that Jennings go over 20 points tonight. I'll spot him about 15-17 points. However, if the Pistons utilize the high pick with the screener being Jefferson's man, Jennings might knock more than a couple of 3-pointers down, because it's no secret that he live for that shot, and Jefferson is too slow and/or lazy to hedge on the pick long enough to allow Kemba to recover

the thing is the Dubs fell the **** off when Iggy was out. He does seem to have a major impact on that team.

Of course, you're a team going nowhere if he is your best player as it was for Philly.

Jennings is also the kind of defender that Kemba should be able to score all over.

McLemore had 20 and an efficient night. Imagine of Cody did that. Half the board wouldn't come out of the bathroom for hours.

MasterIchiro · Post #1170 » by **MasterIchiro** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 3:24 am

Also Evan Turner put up 29 - 10 - 5

Imagine if MKG did that.

That LeBron dunk might've knocked McLemore out of his scary shell. He did play well tonight. Let's see if he can keep it up.

Imagine if MKG was 25.

McLemore is going to be playing that over and over and over again in his head tonight. Those are moments you never forget about your NBA career. Hopefully he learns from it, but just being a basketball fan, I'm proud of him for standing his ground. Shows he is more interested in the game than his persona

Quick question.. It was mentioned a couple weeks ago, but Kanter went from a 19/9 guy to start the season to getting his minutes cut in half? Why?

He would be Jimmy Butler!

Wait..

My bad, Butler is indeed at or close to that age and MKG can't drink an adult beverage yet. Remember the hype Butler got? Hows he doing now?

I wondered the same thing, so I started looking at some game highlights. Honest to God it looks like the guy got Monstarred. His shots look terrible and he airballed some shots pretty bad. I don't blame the Jazz for cutting his minutes

Love is worth watching alone. I find it amazing how someone can be a legit stretch 4 like Love and rebound like he does. Put Love on our roster and I really think we would win 52 games or more.

On a side note those black Wolves jerseys look like Satan went and took a freaking dump on them. Terrible.
