NBA=YAWN atj

The only thing I'm looking forward to is possible Noel 5 minutes per game after all star break.

I can't remember last time I was so bored with NBA. I regret buying the league pass now.

^I haven't watched much NBA myself. I couldn't tell you the last time I watched a full game from start to finish. I dip in for quarters and the last 5 minutes etc. I check the box scores every night tho. I watched almost the entire Wizards v Heat game the other night. I'll watch the Celtics v Lakers tonight bc of Rondo returning. I prolly won't get League Pass next year tbh. Part of my problem is I work 3-4 nights a week and miss a lot of games so it gets me out of rhythm a bit.

I still love watching Chuck Curry play. Dude is completely out of control and I dig that. I use to watch Inside the NBA on TNT almost every Thursday night after all the games but haven't done that more than 1-2 times this year. Not sure what's going on with me tbh. Next thing you know I'll be getting married or something retarded IMO.

I'm fine with NBA & my LP purchase. Don't see what all the fuss is about.

I think crax is just tired of gsw's & Philly's predictable bs. I only watch the unpredictable teams & it's a fun time as long as there's no blowout..

Bryan too busy & Crax too bored. Meanwhile I sit here and get paid to go to school twice a week & just watch basketball the rest of the time. Life indeed

Me and Crax are just bored with life IMO

The NBA is great and everything. I still enjoy watching it. I know you've got your money's worth with it. I see LeoVuittion on his percious Gametime app plenty. And to think you almost didn't buy it at the last minute. Foolishness. If I do get LP next year I'm definitely NOT getting cable version again. Fucking standard def in 70 percent of the games. JFC its 2014, not 2006. Time Warner Cable, you disappoint me greatly. These assholes sometimes join the late games already in progress too. I can't watch the first 4 minutes of a Jazz game because the fucking Bucks v Bobcats are in OT.

Did you ever settle on a major for your AA degree? If you chose Art or anything art related I'm going to murder-suicide both of us.

Yea broadband is the way to go. Cable version would be coo if we could get the actual local fox sport or comcast channel that they use. It's basically a lesser version of broadband with that generic music bullshit/same 2 all star game ads in between commercials FFS useless crap

I haven't decided on a major but art was never an option lol. I'm leaning towards finance and math. I'm interested in other stuff but not interested in the expenses or different schooling that comes with it. Useless USA education system ftl

So are you looking to get a job after you finish your AA or get a bachelors too? Either way it sounds good tbh. I still say you should get a job this summer just for experience/resume enhancement. You could put me down as a character reference IMO. We could fabricate some story how we know each other etc.

Art was an option in the early going imo

I'm gonna try to do exactly that. I'm stuck trying to get my AA for at least 3 years so $12k a year from that. Then another 3 years until I get bachelors which will be another 3 years of $12k. +any scholarship I apply to, I'd win

I'll get summer jobs each year, since the break is long. My resume is beast so I'll get any job.. Then quit before the ball season begins, both NBA & collegiate so I can be involved & see if I can get some schools attention with bball. I feel like I'm a legit D2/shitty school D1 player so there's that irrational confidence

If I don't make at least a D2 school for ball, I'd be a failure regardless of what I study. Ball iz lyfe etc

Give us some footage Leroyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!

Posts : 1830 Join date : 2010-09-02 Age : 28

There is no footage lol. I can't try out for college team until this fall, so I have all year to get into useless uptempo college shape. Guess I could record shotarounds and random drills I do alone but meh, yawn

Man physical readiness in the modern basketball is key to success...

You won't be able to defend a chair for 30 mins bruh...

Posts : 1830 Join date : 2010-09-02 Age : 28

Yea screw modern basketball. Uptempo ftl. Up until 2 weeks ago, I hadn't had a work out since starting school. First time back working out & I get tired on a 30 min shoot around lol

Wall playing like an ass clown :sas:

Go back to the 70's then, maybe even 80's in some parts of the world...

Rondo>anything atm...

Posts : 1830 Join date : 2010-09-02 Age : 28

I wish I could. I don't like modern sports glorifying retard athletes. Some show intelligence at least FFS... But hey Andrew wiggins can make a 360 dunk! Best ball player evur?

I can't watch rondo game cause it's blacked out. NBA <

Man, it's like that and that's the way it is!

lolNBA

Rondo looked a little shaky out there but that's to be expected. I've never been a fan of the Bradley/Rondo backcourt though.

Gasol still a douche I see.

The Wizards are difficult to watch when Wall isn't on the floor tbh

Posts : 173 Join date : 2013-12-15

I always liked that backcourt...

Bradley has been developing nicely...

Posts : 4585 Join date : 2010-09-01 Age : 37 Location : 972

I'm a fan of the idea of the Bradley/Rondo duo but I've yet to see it actually work. I'm certainly not saying it's doomed because of 5 minutes tonight but even last year I never understood the narrative of having Ray Allen come off the bench so Bradley could start, if Ray had stayed of course. That idea went right over my head. I'm just excited that Boston finally has a chance to be competitive now. This team could be sneaky good next year IMO

Posts : 1830 Join date : 2010-09-02 Age : 28

Temple has been unusually solid

Posts : 173 Join date : 2013-12-15

I agree on sneaky good...

Remember 2012?

When Rondo and Bradley played lock D?

Ray was off the bench bcuz he couldn't defend like Avery...

Man I love this guy...

Posts : 1830 Join date : 2010-09-02 Age : 28

0 ast lol RIP ratio

Hope he looks good

Rondo got his swag back in the 2nd quarter. Brad Stevens coached him up etc

I miss when Nene came off the bench. Tough matchup for him though.

Otto Porter with another epic stint tonight

Zero's across the board except for 1 turnover in 5 minutes. Just sign someone from the DLeague ffs.

He doesn't even really play tbh. Nothing is ran for him, he doesn't get ball ever, etc. He'll be fine down the line

montage shot of the year (and possibly the century) by wall. If rose or curry made that shot, they'd be "the clear cut mvp" on espn

^^ I agree with Leroy...

The wiz have a turned a corner. This team is legit atj with the current rotations and effort. Only reason it was close, nene kept missing open layups. He'll be fine tomorrow etc

Beal keeps driving now and taking&making layups. Great sign. Wall has gone back to early 2013 form, aka beast

I wish they would let otto be aggressive. Something good happens every time he grows some balls. A few games ago he turned the ball over, got the ball back, launched a contested mid range shot out of frustration and swished it
