03.19.13 | I really wish Inveigh was still here. I loved talking shit to him. |

03.19.13 | Jason Terry should have just permanently benched himself for the rest of the game after that. |

03.19.13 | "i really hate the heat especially when my lakers can barely make a layup and they're fighting for our record. i really hate the heat"
yea lakers blow, wtf this game was an abomination
kobe or no kobe you don't get blown out by the fuckin' suns |

03.19.13 | pit you're right though, terry played like shit second half of the 4th quarter, single-handedly cost the c's the win imo |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | No, what cost the C's the win was poor defense(specifically Jeff green and Crawford) and terrible play calling by Doc Rivers. That play call at the end was some of the worst coaching I have ever seen. |

03.19.13 | Ewww Lakers fans. |
toxin.
03.19.13 | true but C's were up in the 4th and terry jacked up a few momentum killers and turned it over a few times iirc
and yea once Thibodeau left Doc started sucking hmmm |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | I think it's not just Thibideau. I think it's the fact that he had 3 players still in their prime who all knew how to lead.
Great players can make a mediocre coach look fantastic. Ask Eric Spoelstra. |

03.19.13 | Bump |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | Yeah, I did. They need a neutral personality. Wade and Riley didn't exactly get along, so whythink wade and someone else with a strong personality would? |

03.19.13 | The Heat are literally the Yankees of Basketball - simultaneously hateable and respectable. |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | I would take a technical for staring down Terry if I put my balls in his mouth like LeBron did. |
toxin.
03.19.13 | no way, the heat are so much more likeable. since the summer of 2010 fiasco lebron's been a really cool guy. there's no player as unlikable as a-rod on the heat
and yeah you're probably right, esp. pierce and garnett (never been big on allen). that's a huge thing, but still. the 2008 c's were ridiculously disciplined, but idk if it was doc or the big 3 |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | How could you not be big on Allen? He's the greatest 3 point shooter of all time and he's the epitome of class on the court..... Unless you're JJ Barea. |
toxin.
03.19.13 | he's obviously a superb shooter (and laker fans are the first to thank him for his performance in the finals after that one game where he set the record!) but i was never sold on him being a leader in the same vein as pierce and especially kg
i could never see kg or pierce signing straight to the defending nba champions led by the player with whom they had the biggest rivalry for the past 4 years and i guess that's partially why i don't like him. |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | You gotta realize that he had to put up with a lot of shit in Boston lat year. Rondo didn't want him around, and the team tried to trade him several times. Why go back to a team that doesn't seem to want you in the first place? Not only that, why not go to their rival and stick it to them for treating you like shit after you helped win them their first title in 20 years? |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | Lol that's what ray did. He moved on. I was just answering a question jeezgitoffmahback |
toxin.
03.19.13 | Oh, I wasn't aware of any of this.
I skimmed this article: http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba--heat-gave-ray-allen-reason-to-again-feel-wanted.html
I guess it looks at the way you look at the premise of the article. You can see it as the C's organization treating him like shit and then Allen going to the best suitor. I just see it as a guy who's whining that he didn't start happily coming off the bench for his archenemy's team. He seems a bit entitled that he wasn't being looked at like the 31 year old shooting phenom with still years ahead of him.
I guess it's difference of opinion. As someone who watched a player who at the time was better than Allen now (Lamar Odom in his prime) go from being 2nd option on the Lakers to happily coming off the bench for a championship team, his attitude comes off as totally self-interest. If it's really about something as egotistical "feeling wanted" then I'm fucking surprised someone like KG would want him back. |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | Yeah, but in those days the Lakers weren't trying to ship Odom out. You also need to remember when they did try to trade Odom, he wasn't exactly happy with it two seasons ago. |
toxin.
03.19.13 | True, that's a good point. Come to think of it, if Pau wanted out, I wouldn't really blame him for it (tried to trade him, he's not that old and he's coming off the bench).
Still, I would imagine not being happy with him if he signed directly with the Lakers' rival (though I don't know if they have one anymore... maybe still the Celtics?). Even if he hated the administration, it seems a bit disrespectful to your teammates? I dunno |
toxin.
03.19.13 | what?
odom in 2009 was better than allen is now
i don't even think that's arguable. |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | If you go by stats, the only thing Odom has on Allen is BPG and RPG. Everything else is either identical or Allen has him beat. |
toxin.
03.19.13 | looking at per-36, LO has him beat on blocks, rebounds, fg% (granted this is a bit skewed, i'm sure allen has a higher ts%), steals, points, and PER.
but it's not like it matters for anything, honestly. |
intotheshit
03.19.13 | That per bullshit is so fucking overrated. |
toxin.
03.19.13 | yea def, way too much emphasis on steals and blocks
stats are useless but steals and blocks particularly so |
