Knicks might have the best collection of low IQ players in the league. I kinda feel bad for Thibs.

Knicks and Wolves are useless. Heat and Sixers gain half a game on us.

Obviously, a lot of this depends on whose job it is to take desperation heaves.

By the way -- the only guy on that list I saw with a 50% mark from 2-pt range was Steph. Rudy Gay was the next-closest, perhaps followed by Melo.

Durant and Westbrook have identical overall numbers, and Westbrook is worse from 3, so Durant is worse than Westbrook from 2.


I hear you, but PP isn't near the top 50 of all time... LBJ is supposed to be top 2 and he believes it's not 2, that's ugly ugly. Actually, LBJ maybe had it right to begin his career, make the right play instead of taking the tough/trash shot. People were in his ass about passing up the shots, but maybe he knows the game better than what everyone's ego tells them to do.

I'm still not giving him his roses til he's outta the league. :o :lol:


The time I participated in the RealGM Top 100 project, we picked Pierce somewhere in the 30s.


Dunno if any of you ever watched Game of Zones but
Spoiler:
Pearce is rated the GOAT in the final episode.

Only saw part of that game, but the BBIQ difference between Randall and Lowry was marked.

I didn't know that until a few days ago, when somebody linked that episode in a thread on the GB.

With all the player movement, this is quite hard.

Only one game, but losing CP3 resulted in a 17 loss at home from Phx to the Pels..

Watching Miami come back from a 10 point deficit against San Antonio is killing me. San Antonio has talent but they are just too young

I wouldn't say no chance of getting 1st or 2nd seed but man, Heat might be tough to catch. Best I will hope for is 4th seed. Cavs and Bulls slip in that scenario. Philly likely takes one of HCA spots.

Got a lil help tonight Washington botched that **** against Cleveland tho they’re terrible. I still feel like 3rd seed is very obtainable and even 2nd if everything goes our way.

Have to play well tomo hopefully theis will play more since Myles turner plays like he’s 5’11. I think ime didn’t like the beef stew vs theis matchup considering Stewart demolished him last time.

Other than the last two games als minutes have cut down a bit.

Return to Boston Celtics
