NBA 2011-12 Season Thread

Not as bad as the Wolves going from a team that probably would have made the playoffs to a team that really isnt good at all anymore.

The twolves broke my heart this year ;(

[Beorn]

At least a team in your situation can get another 1 prospect via its high draft pick; we'll get one around the 15th mark which is OK, but usuallu won't get u a great player

That's the sad thing, we actually wont be getting a high pick, our pick belongs to New Orleans because we traded for Marko ing Jaric like 6 years ago and gave the Clippers a protected first round pick then they traded it to the Hornets with Gordon for Paul and this year it's unprotected I think. We have the Jazz's pick, but only if they make the playoffs if im not mistaken.

this.

The wolves have literally no incentives to miss the playoffs.

Wizards destroy the Bobcats. Epic fail.

hey therussian, how you doin'?

[therussian]

If we don't get the first pick, I'm going to murder David Stern.

[jukeness]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Good luck with that, I've been thinking the same thing for years with the Wolves, we've had the worst record like 4 times and only once even got the 2nd pick. Just maybe they will be nice to the Bobcats because they lost Wallace and Jackson.

I'm just now coming to grips with the fact that klove isn't quite as good as his stats would suggest. However, I still believe in him as the franchise the pf, he's just not at that level yet. At that game changing level.

[Scipio Afracanis]

He is giving the franchise/fans hope and thats the 1st part. He can improve and the team will improve around him. To have the media(even if its only a blurb about Love in MVP race) talk about Wolves basketball not related to Kahn is win win win.

Rose, for starters, tweaked an ankle at some point in Sunday's game, which he finished. The extent of the injury is unknown, however sources said Rose wore a walking boot on Monday and his availability for Tuesday's shot at redemption against the Knicks is a game-time decision.

[King Nud]

He's not playing tonight, thankfully it appears to be just a sprain...

[RZZZA]

Can we just put the entire Bulls squad in bubble wrap until the playoffs?

Because he is foreign born and therefore not eligible for any type of MVP for winning his Ducks the Championship the fans voted to build him a bronze statue.

Ankle injuries suck, they never stop once they start especially for some people like Curry.

Thank Jupiter that Odom won't get on the court again as a Dallas Maverick.

The race for the bottom finals spots in both conferences is getting interesting. From 6 to 10 in the west, there are only 2 ¹/₂ games between the teams, so every game is like a playoff for those teams. In the East there is a 1 ¹/₂ games between the teams, so it is even closer. Then there will be jockeying for positions at the other end of the spectrum. It is certainly an exciting end to the season.

Maybe if he would divorce the Kardashian he would have the same kind of killer season next year that Humph has had this year.

The problem with Rose, and the reason you have to do something else with this team going forward to mitigate minute load with a little guy, is that he has 12,500 minutes on that body. I was shocked when I heard that just now. That is historically about halfway through to the point you being to see significant drop off.

And he simply cannot continue to take the beatings he does. A lot of it comes from the way he is forced to play, and some of it through the way he choses to play. Both can be solved, and have to be solved. I mean you hear about how crappy Iverson's after-NBA life is, with the debilitating pain, and this really shapes up to be that situation happening again, right before our eyes. It isn't much better than multiple concussed NFL players sitting in dark rooms because they cannot be in light, at all. Iverson spends a lot of time in bed.


People now just want him (Rose) to sit the rest of the regular season. Unfortunately I do not think the Bulls have that luxury. This starting lineup has to log some minutes before the playoffs.

[RZZZA]

nonsense. Stop being a negative nelly.

[Scipio Afracanis]

Good: CP3 with game winning layup against the Thunder keeps Clip with at least the prospect of home court in the 1st round, worth his weight in gold for that franchise.

Interesting: Knicks trying to get a tighter grip on there playoff spot and with a win against the Bucks going along way toward that.

Bad:Love hit in the head by the former Washington player McGee. Helped off the floor.
