By blackace Go To Postthe biggest problem with Melo's contract is the NTC
True. On the flip side it comes with a players option. If he isn't completely done by 2018 history has shown he'll opt out the final year for a longer (cheaper) contract to probably end his career on for safety reasons. If he does that the knicks will have significant money at least until 2018 the last year of his contract.
By 33MillionDollarMen Go To PostPHX is the new metric right?His team only scored 1 point, missed four FTs and had 4 TOs in the 23 minutes he was on the floor?
Against PHX: 23 min, 1 point from a FT, 0/4, 4 TOs
Making his team better eh?
By DY_nasty Go To Postnaw he only defended kevin love's meaningless stats
Once again time to remind everyone I was ahead of the curve on Love
So we're just going to act like that 30/30 game never happened, I guess? He's a good player, he's just the anti-Rubio: a big who's good at everything but defense.
Doc Rivers: "It's not on us. It's on them." Doc goes on to say that he thinks that active/inactive lists are dumb.
League source tells me the NBA gave Clippers coach Doc Rivers the option before tipoff to let CJ McCollum play Wednesday. Rivers said no.Doc Rivers is a cheat and a liar, shocking no one.
By PSYCH! Go To Postshit, I don't think any coach ould not have taken advantage of portland's fumble.Yep, it's happened in baseball too. If someone messes up like that, you take advantage.
By reilo Go To PostDoc Rivers is a cheat and a liar, shocking no one.i can't stand doc but i don't blame him for a second for making portland hold that L
By 33MillionDollarMen Go To PostIt's actually stupid to me that he was even asked. NBA stays fuckin' dumb.every major sport does it
even larger high school programs
its serious shit. you can't just straddle on opposing teams with who's actually gonna play or not until game time. it inspires all kinds of bullshit.
also, gambling.
By 33MillionDollarMen Go To PostYeah but that was an obvious mistake not a Pop type sit out for strategic reasons.same game
just because you forget you're playing doesn't mean you can't lose
Blaming Doc is objectively silly. But I'm not a Portland Fan that just watched my team lose a winnable game for this dumb ass mistake. If I was I would probably be pissed off too.
By DY_nasty Go To Postyou're right. without 3 starters we are knicks-bad
but still
Actually no. With your full team in tact (and MKG) you're significantly better than the Knicks. Without 3 starters you can't beat a trash can.
By etiolation Go To PostI just realized there's a chance Luke Walton coaches Kobe Bryant in the All-Star game.
Kerr will be back this month most likely.
By reilo Go To PostDoc Rivers is a cheat and a liar, shocking no one.lol if your team is stupid blame the other coach?
I must be the only one who likes Doc. Something about the I just got yelled at by my boss and I came home to rub one out only to find out my daughter is doing porn look he always has on his face is appealing to me.
or that could just be the my basketball legacy is Austin Rivers look I get em mixed-up

By blackace Go To Postshrugmac was about to outshine vince in toronto you hater
he also made T-mac
doc can't even make a backup pg out of his own son

I don't think I've heard many coaches after a loss basically go "yea I watched them play last night, I low key knew we were fucked"
"Geez I was uncomfortable when I was watching NY play last night against Atlanta and it looked like a very similar game to last night. You have to credit NY, they played with a flow and a confidence offensively. We couldn't get it to that level defensively"

and with the powers of a gm he made his son a backup pg
By reilo Go To PostClippers announcers calling their uniforms "good looking" and talking about their sales, kill me.Those black unis are a terrible design mainly because 1) you can't read the red and blue design on a black background without white piping, and 2) it's impossible to tell what team they are by just looking at the uniforms.
What's even worse is that they had a really solid design before.
By pilonv1 Go To PostOnce again time to remind everyone I was ahead of the curve on LoveI always said Love was overrated and that he was only slightly better than David Lee.
By charsace Go To PostI always said Love was overrated and that he was only slightly better than David Lee.
I never really thought he was better than Blake or some in the old guard, but there was that "best in the league" sentiment out there even as late as last season's training camp despite Dy suggesting otherwise.

Doc used to come by my barbershop to get his level 1 all around cut. I can't hate.
I went to the Pistons/Celtics game last night.
Both teams are very fun to watch, will make for an excellent 7 game series with the Cavs if either gets the 8 seed. My boy Reggie Jackson was lighting people up. IT2 was failing all over the FT line but made the 4th legit exciting. ET started hot but they didn't really go to him in the second half. Stanley Johnson is raw as hell. Celtics really need a legit inside presence, when their 3 point shots aren't falling it gets uuuuuuuuuuuugly, and they have trouble getting stops in the paint.

Why does it matter what Doc did or didn't do?
Why is nobody talking about the dumb fuck move by Terry Stotts?
