The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread

I think the Spurs game getting to them, not to make excuses but this back to back vs Spurs and OKC is pretty tough.

Still, gotta give credit where its due.

OKC is almost unbeatable when westbrook hits his stride anyways, damn... if that guy was consistent
Also if Perkins was amnestied.. who would pick that scrub up?

The Knicks would pick up Perk on a vet min, no question

Going to kill me daily rhytm this kobe return but need to watch it

All I'm going to say about the Rudy Gay trade is I told you so.

Anyway, OKC blowing out the Pacers tonight. Durant destroyed George tonight don't let the box score fool you. PG put up points in garbage time when the Thunder had a 20+ point lead and the entire starting lineup was on the bench.

Anyway, everyone at my house is buzzing atm. It's like MJ's return in 95 ffs. Christmas rarely comes twice a year.

Really? You called that he was getting traded to the Kings

that's odd. I was told Rudy Gay is an inefficient chucker but he's a 45% career shooter. Higher than PG3 and plenty of other SFs, but I guess if you've only been watching bball for a year and half that's all you know.

That is absolutely bollocks

Both Durant and Westbrook were out there when he was putting down 3s.

I didn't turn it on till 2nd half but the starters were not on the bench

I want to know what Gil told us, im so confused right now lol

You knew he was getting traded?

Gay has a career TS% of .520 and is shooting 41% from the field this season.

Grizzlies got rid of him and so too have the Raptors barely a year into his career.

He simply isn't a winning player as evidenced as the Grizzlies fortunes in the post-season. The two years they got out of the first round were without Gay. 10/11 when he got injured and Zbo went on a tear and 12/13 after he was traded.

I understand you're a big fan but it's time to face the facts. Give me Parsons, Batum, George, Melo, Durant, King James, Barnes, Iguodala, Hayward and even Leonard any day of the week.

Anyway, nothing I say will change your mind so lets just leave it at that.

KOBE TIME!

Durant was on the bench early in the 4th when he went crazy.

No I said he sucked and isn't good enough to even be the 3rd option on a winning team because of his inability to shoot, draw fouls, lack of playmaking & terrible shot selection.

He's basically JR Smith. Would probably be a good 6th man but no winning team will take on that horrendous contract.

I just saw the news, not sure what to make of it. We lack star power and we go trade our only one? 
I thought Rudy would stay at least until summer time, this was too soon, hope our GM knows what he is doing. I think its going to be another loooooooooooong season.

Knicks lot by 41 to Boston.

Has he been underwhelming for the contract he's on? Absolutely.

Has he failed to live to enormous potential he had? Yup.

There's plenty of worse SF's though. That's my point. Where's your Josh Smith hate?

And Hayward :lol:Except for Durant, Melo, George, Bron, none of those dudes are #1 options. It's pretty clear that he struggles as the main focus of an offense, and so would any of those who aren't the 4 I named.


Grizzlies got rid of him cause they're a cheap franchise and look at them this year.

Also, it's Toronto. I'd chuck too. If he's still shooting under 40% after a change of scenery, and a full season with Sactown I'll concede.

Nah, Gay could easily be a 3rd option on a good team. Depends on the other 2 players.

Grizzlies were stupid for trading him. Though all they care about is stats and saving money so it makes sense they dont know what they doing.

Here we go again...as soon as Kobe touches the ball, nobody wants to create for themselves

Am I the only one thats thinking...other than Kobe...who exactly am I watching today? lol

Sacre ffs

Swagy P please hit dem shots

I didn't even know Shawne Williams was still in the league

So many points in the paint for the Raps.

Dont the Lakers have Hill? He is a big enough body, right now they are just scored on from post ups so easily.

edit: alright, he is in now.

Fields misses a dunk

Landry Fields

Raptors looking very good WITHOUT Gay. Excellent quarter.

And Gasol is clearly done. He's a shell of the player he was a couple of years ago. 41% for a big man is beyond pathetic and his defense has been poor.

wtf r these refs doing.......holy hell

WHoa

Greatest moment of Terrence Ross' career

As soon as it left Ross' hands, that looked good
