Official 2012/2013 NBA Season

Bulls played some solid basketball as a team. Definitely a good win even if it is against the Kings. If we can keep this type of play up, we should have no problem making playoffs.

just take my word on this!

LMFAO at the Uncle Drew vid...."DON'T JUMP YOUNG BLOOD!!!"

Can't believe that was K. Love. He doesn't play like that in the games

LA go 0-10 so far including pre-season. I'd like to see them go 0-30 before they win their 1st game

Uncle Drew Part 1 is pretty funny too hah.

LA 0-30? I hope they don't need THAT much time to learn how to play together...pretty sad.

Originally posted by lightning80 I just read this piece on CP3 and Dwight Howard and how they wanted to play together and why it didn't happen. It's all because of Howard not being able to make up his mind. They could have been playing for my Mavs... Now I dislike Dwight even more...   http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba--what-short-circuited-serious-plans-for-dwight-howard-and-chris-paul-to-play-together-in-dallas--110112.html

Originally posted by Von44 Nash is out already only 3 games into the season? Poor Lakers, guess they'll need the rest of their allstar team to step up.

Yikes. I just want to see them grow into something awesome. Just hope it doesn't take the whole season..

James Harden is playing crazy good! Not like he wasn't before with the Thunder, I'm still sad it didn't work out for him to stay there.

how do yall feel about the lakers making excuses for losing "we just need our offense to click" wah heres your offense give kobe the ball outside the pint feed howard the ball in side the paint game over championship

D. Rose's return all depends on how good the Bulls play for playoff contention. If they suck I don't see Rose coming back this season. However if they are good, Rose coming back could be an advantage or a disadvantage. I would love to see him back but not at the expense of his career. IMO he should wait till next season to come back just to be safe.

I don't understand why every time the Lakers put together a supposed super team they decide to run a Princeton offense. It never worked when Malone/Payton joined the Lakers so why would it work know? Anyhow if they don't win tonight's game vs the Pistons it might be time to hit the panic button. Wizards bench > Lakers bench!!!

CLIPPERS !!! BLAKE THE GREAT

Those aren't predictions. those are questions... without a question mark.

I don't know if Odom can revitalize a lackluster career... sure he's been on some championship clubs but his game wasn't one to ever get excited about, even less exciting than his personal life. 

I am a fan of Billups though, solid PG!

Not that many games on election night. I'll take that as a good thing.

Originally posted by j_lucky84 Watched a bit of the OKC/TOR game last night. It carried a lot less excitement than when i was watching the Thunder in the playoffs. They played well, of course, but i think it is just that early-season lack of urgency that took away from the overall enjoyment of the game.

im so hooked on nba fantasy right now. first year ive done and its so addictive.

Fantasy basketball is an intense time suck!

Originally posted by timpiper The lakers dont just look outta wack or like theyre on the cusp of righting the ship-they rather look like complete crap. Mike brown is digging a deep hole for himself

It's painful to watch their games and believing they can win because they're a good team....and then they don't.

But in reality, they are only 5 games into season...they have a lot of time to get their shiiii together.

^ just because you have good players doesn't mean you have a good team. the players need to learn to play together and the coach needs to know how to fully utilize each player's talent. the lakers just aren't doing either right now. they need to take lessons from the dallas mavericks and how they're winning with more new players than returning players. brand new starting lineup last night, and still winning without their star player.

Hmmm, so should I put money on the Warriors tonight now that the Lakers just fired coach Brown?

That was an extremely fast push of the purple panic button.  0-8 preseason followed by an 0-3 start, he must have had a feeling something was going to happen if he didn't right the ship quickly.

Wow... Fail on the Lakers part IMO.  Why bother keeping him this summer if they are going to panic this early in the season?

Shit happens, but they did what they had to do. Considering they have a solid all star line up for the most part, there really isn't any reason they should be starting out this bad. I think it's a smart move by them to bring in a new coach. Better to do it now then before their record gets worse.

They were well below the expectation for this team. Lakers can't afford to give up on a season with this allstar lineup. Best to change things up now before things get out of reach.

wow, that was fast. i thought they would hold off a little longer before getting rid of brown. you could see something wasnt right though, it didnt look like a team with potential who was still getting used to playing together. they didnt look like they were improving so i guess something needed to be done and they have hit the panic button before it gets too far into the season.
