NBA 2011-2012 SEASON DISCUSSIONS

LMAO ^^

Glad to see Larry Bird call his team soft. Couldn't agree more. I'm also disappointed in David West this series. He should be dominating when Battier is guarding him. I can see why Chris Paul never won anything in NOLA. Dude had zero help apparently.

Me using David West on DD crew > David West in real life

Celtics need to seize the moment tonight and close out Philly. Don't let these streaky bastards have a chance in a game 7.

The all NBA defense team is a god damn joke and disgrace to life

The Celtics v Philly series is a god damn joke and disgrace to life.

The 2nd team all D team is a little suspect. Kobe and KG? I'm not buying that. That's purely going off reputation. Both guys are still good defenders but not elite. Surprised Tony Allen made 1st team. He's deserving but I figured they'd put a more "name" player in there, like in the 2nd team when they just put big name guys in for giggles. Not to mention Tyson Chandler is on the 2nd team, yet he won DPOY.

That makes sense.

you guys seen this? this is pretty awesome

lol seen that, will forever buy pepsi now


Almost The whole list is a joke. WOW @ Tony being first team, FINALLY the NBA coaches/whoever votes grows some balls. But like you said Kobe KG? How about Howard and Paul? No rondo or Bradley first team? Why is Howard not on the All NBA bitch team?


Lack of iggy, Granger, George, Thabo is disturbing

Paul plays great defense, look at other PG's scoring when he's on the court and when he's not, stop saying nonsense...
KG plays great D still too, idk bout Kobe though...

Told you CP3 had zero help...

As a fan of defense this series is good, I mean the defensive intensity in this series is awesome, the speed is lovely, but in some games they just can't make a SHOT...

Chandler DPOY and not on the first team That's something you'd expect from 2k game, another glitch
Go Philly! They're going to lose, but it's been a fun series if you don't look at horrible offense. Big 3 need to retire already ffs, waste of playoffs slot. I'd rather watch Philly v Miami tragedy than delusional veterans trying to outrun superfriends & co.

^^^ what I've been saying lol

Bradley defense > Paul defense

See, what I've said 2 days ago, when Boston looses, everyone says they NEED TO RETIRE ALREADY, omg omg they can't beat the Heat...

When they win, oh KG playing like 04 MVP, oh Rondo running the show and getting them open shots, oh damn they can beat the Heat, same old shit I'm tired of, it's not about age now, it really isn't, it's about executing on offense, not making costly turnovers, which they made in game 4 and game 6, not in game 5 though, and they tried to turn it on in the late 4th, but they dig in themselves a hole and couldn't win, age isn't a factor now, in the midst of a regular season it is, the back to backs etc...So please guys come to your minds and don't listen to "ESPN experts" and what they say about age, look at San Antonio, they old as dirt too, but they don't go easily in a game and they don't turn it on in the 3rd and they don't turnover the ball...

Well I agree, Bradley>Paul defense

George>LeBron defense

NBA is glitched, Tyson 2nd team FFS

1st Bradley Allen George Ibaka Tyson
2nd Paul Kobe LeBron KG Howard

I can agree with that list

It's also safe to say, I don't base my opinions off anyone else's lol. Espn is full of shit with comments saying how Boston or OKC are good. Gtfo

http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/221198/Bradley_Likely_Done_For_Remainder_Of_Postseason

^if true, RIP 2012 Boston Celtics....they might not even win game 7 without Bradley. When Ray Allen isn't hitting shots, like the first 45 minutes last night he absolutely kills Boston on both ends of the floor. But Philly insists on shooting jumpers all game and will likely get flustered on the road and lose but Boston has zero chance against the Heat without Bradley.

Celtics have too many injury issues. Bradley, Allen, Pierce, etc. I love when the announcers say Iggy is hurt and then he'll come down and dunk on 3 people in a fast break. Guess he's really hurting out there, etc. This entire series is a damn joke. I'm not buying that it's all "great defense" either. Boston played with no urgency last night. Looked like a damn preseason game judging from their intensity. And why Rondo wasn't being more aggressive I'll never know.

I agree with the series being a joke. There hasn't been a lick of good defense, just horrid offense. I remember you talking shit about Evan turner before, but truth is he's the only player on either side playing with any balls. This is the only guy on either team who is attacking the basket. I don't care if he shoots 3 - 20 if he's attacking the basket the way he is. Its necessary cause the entire Philly roster jacking up 3's and deep 2's is a damn joke

Just advance miami plz

Ante you're nuts if you think Boston can win against Miami. They're ALL STAR Sixers ffs, if Ray plays like he's able to they have a chance, but his ankles are funked up apparently.

I share an admiration for Turner with Leroy as well, the dude is the only one realising what needs to be done.

@Leroy

And Rajon Rondo is what? Wow...No defense? LMAO...

@Dex

Brah, Miami in season lost twice and won once when Pierce was injured against Boston, Boston will play (if they play) with another intensity against that team, they hate them, you can see that and you you can hear that, they hate en as much as I do, you noticed that stars like Melo, Wade, LeBron, Paul never and I mean never been on media or nothing has been speculated that they talk to the Celtics players? Even on all star games, like Rondo always collides with Paul, KG always says stuff about LeBron James etc or Bosh...

I tell you man, if they can't beat the Pacers in 6 games, they can't beat Boston, because Boston is a team and Indiana that don't FIT Miami's pussy style of basketball, if you get bumpy and grumpy against the Heat you have a chance literally, Philly fits because they're young and can turnover the ball more often than these too, when Boston and Indy take care of the ball, they can be lethal, especially Boston with Rondo so...I think they can beat them and I said before, Indy and Miami will go in game 7, why? No team in these playoffs except the Spurs and the Thunder has won three in a row and those teams are another level than any other team in the NBA, case closed...

I never said Turner sucked or anything. I just found it laughable he was trying to pick fights with the entire Boston organization in earlier games this series. I like the kid. I don't think he's very good (mainly because he doesn't have a true position)but I agree that he's got toughness.

Ante, I agree with most of what you say but the fact is without Bradley on the floor they can't stop Miami. Ray Allen was embarrassed by DWade last year and by all accounts he was much healthier than he is now. Bradley not only can contain DWade, he's capable of shutting him down. And don't just assume they're going to beat Philly in game 7. To be honest, Boston is begging to get beat the way they've fucked around this series. Boston should have ended this series in 5 or 6. Doug Collins is a great motivator and he'll have those guys genuinely believing they can win Saturday. All the trends and circumstances favor Boston but letting the underdog hang around can bite you in the ass sometimes.

Rondo hasn't even had a chance to play defense cause holiday just jacks up shots. He also plays without balls. Just watches his team lose

Turner is fine. He's just iggy 2.0 and iggy is an all defense, all star, all etc. Not like he's an undersized "combo guard" aka midget/chucker. Those are the ones that suck.

Fun game so far in INDY. Every time Miami misses a shot they want a foul called. Pretty neat. Just put Lance Stephenson in and let him tackle DWade ffs...he's cried/flopped about 4 times already.

Holiday > Rondo during game 6. Which really disgusted me.

I miss games being on TNT.

I completely agree, I haven't seen this much bitching from one person in a while. Vogel needs to let lance throw some punches

Fans >>>

Wades flopping > all of flop city's floping abilities

^Chris Paul will forever be the greatest flopper of all-time. Well, 2nd to the Godfather Manu Ginobili.

This game is funny. Wade won't miss, constant flopping/crying, LeBron pretending to hurt his foot after missing a layup, Barbosa being worthless, etc.

I don't know if anyone remembers this or not but there was a time when Paul George was actually playing decent this year. Those days are long gone it seems. And Indiana commits more unforced turnovers than any team in the history of NBA basketball. FFS, learn to pass the fucking ball.

If Wade cools down the Pacers got this game. West is finally beasting down low against the old SF guarding him.

TNT>ESPN

Just don't commit the turnovers and you have a chance, what Indiana does? Commits 20 turnovers, yikes!

Yeah, without Bradley they're pretty much screwed, maybe Pietrus, maybe...But then Pierce, oh God...

I remember when Paul was the future. Smh I am so disappointed. How the fuck you turn the ball over 20 times without them even playing any kind of defense?

They don't just turn it over, some of these passes aren't within 3 feet of the intended target. Glad that damn series is over too. I knew it was too good to be true that the Heat would lose in the conference semifinals. And it's pretty evident that the Philly v Boston winner is screwed in the next series. I mean, the winner of that game Sat night has to get on a plane and fly to Miami and play game 1 on Monday. Good luck with that. It will be a minor miracle if Miami doesn't go up 2-0 in that series.

If this were a video game I'd sim to the Finals. Even though I'm intrigued for the Spurs v Thunder. Unless Boston loses game 7, then I might slit my wrists and stop watching the playoffs for awhile.
