i know nobody is watching em, but the timberwolves have secretly developed one of the best centers in the league. Nikolai pekovic is avg 20 and 10 and the last few games is putting up 30+

Dude can't even jump

How has he not been cast in any mob/gangster film? He doesn't need to say anything. Im dead serious, he just screams being cast in something

ricky's inability to shoot is serious. His field goal percentage is something like 19%, worst in the league if im not mistaken.

He's not even looking to shoot which is making it easier for defenders to double team. He may not have the career envisioned when he first came into the league if he seriously can't shoot the ball.

Pretty bad year for NBA unless your a heat, spurs, portland or pacer fan it seems like.

rubio gotta shoot better but at this point it might never happen. i agree its a huge problem for the wolves

Can't really get into the NBA at all this year. Just an awful year for the league if you try to look at it objectively.

A lack of parity has always been an issue but it's absolutely insane this year.

Yeah but I'm really groovin' on what my TrailBlazers have done so far. Yeah, they aren't gonna win a title, but compared to the past several years (really ever since Roy got hurt)...

6...7?

Heat Spurs Pacers....

Sure Okc, Portland, Gs are good but they can not hold up in a 7 game series against the top 3 teams. People complain but rarely in the nba are their more than 5 ACTUAL contender teams. I mean lots of good teams were had in the 90's and the bulls won that **** 6 times. The 80's had lots of good teams and the Lakers Celtics won pretty much everything except for the Pistons at the end.

Plus the Sixers in '83. And in the '90's it was the Houston "Thank-you-Michael-Jordan-for-trying-to-be-the-next-Bo-Jackson" Rockets, otherwise the Bulls would've had eight trophies.

Which is exactly why the NBA is my least favorite of the four major leagues. That and it's such a "star" driven league.

But I'll always love myTrailBlazers. But it's a love like you might have for a total knucklehead little brother. You *have* to love 'em but constantly smfh over the completely sub-moronic shit they pull.

Big surprise Bynum is not working out in Cleveland. Guy is a bigger head case than World Peace. Clippers and Heat should run screaming from him.

And Paul, I'm a Nuggets fan but Portland is looking good. I will root for them over Miami or the thunder any day.
