That being said, if Brooks had a real offence he wouldnt have to do anything.

You mean like personnel wise or if he implemented an actual offense? Cause they could have James Harden still right now and wouldn't win squat.






Pierce

NBA is back

I meant a system.

They really need to get more out of what they have. WB/KD ISO, Westrook high pick, KD wing pin down and WB/KD pick and pop with Ibaka is literally everything they have.

They have one options every trip down the floor and if it dont pan out, there is no counter.


@ OG PP putting his dukes up like a 55 year old grandpa

Rose looked as athletic as ever in the clips I saw, which is half the battle for him.

Also I think Pau blocked more shots in 15 mins than Boozer did in 3 years

I saw Mirotic balling too, dude has no athletic ability but he can really shoot it and is quite creative when he has to drive it.

He was quicker than I imagined and also what surprised more than anything was his ability to just put the ball on the floor.

He was a lot better in both departments than I imagined he would be.

Well I think some of it is alot of the scouting reports and talk regarding him spoke about him being and playing power-forward and that naturally makes people have an idea about his game.

But obviously in Europe the power-forward position is really a perimeter position even more than the current NBA. In reality he can play the 3 or the 4 for the Bulls, I think with their big man depth more 3 than perhaps first thought. And for a 3, he is pretty slow but smart enough to play it. Got a really nice steal playing the pass-lane.

Lakers won a game. Never thought I'd write that again. Ed Davis and Randle looked good. Kobe looked relatively good considering his long break from competitive games.

Not like it matters for them either, McDermott and Dunleavy are not going to do anything better on D really.

I doubt his lack of athleticism will come into it as those two have the issues and you would imagine Butler would guard most 3s anyway.

Yeah, no doubt. Butler going to take the best wing scorer on a nightly basis. And there arent alot of 2-3 wing combo's you need to worry about (like when Wade and Bron/George and Lance where together).

In fact, what are the best wing duo's in the league?

Klay-Iggy? Harden-Ariza? Ellis-Parsons? Leonard and 20 minutes of Ginobli?

If Brooks wasn't a moron it would be Durant and Westbrook lol.

But yeah there's not many legit wing combo's around.

Good point. If Brooks dont want to run an actual offence, then a point guard would be a solid second choice.

Hell, just throw Jackson in the SLU and let it happen.

He's actually hitting 3s now

Saw this smh

Gotta hand it to him, he really has improved his jumper. He looks real confident shooting it.

And as you saw when he iso'ed Bogut on the left wing, you have to get closer to him and he can drive right by you.

Want to see better post footwork now and his offensive game is on point.

Bosh say's he hasn't talked to LeBron since he joined the Cavs

Dem tears

Bosh wasn't at Wades wedding?

Odd.

Nah he was.. I think he meant other than at the wedding, he couldn't avoid him there

I can't believe the media are making a big story out of this.

So what if he hasn't spoken to him? He's not a child who needs Lebron's voice to reassure him everything will be ok.

Hell I have gone weeks at a time without speaking to my best friends due to doing my own shit and vice versa. It means absolutely nothing people go without speaking to each other all the time.

It doesn't mean they are bitter, jealous or anything else.

@bold, with the amount of 'Gay' Bosh jokes that go around, that may not be true......

True enough.

I can't say the same, I may not see them for a while but we still text

Well true enough but it was just an example really.

If I was a nba player who just moved to a totally different state I could see it being different. Not to mention Bosh is nowhere near as close to Lebron as Wade is.

They were never friends like Wade and LBJ, and now they play on different teams. How is this news?

He wasn't as close to Bron as Wade, but they were still friends

So what? They probably still are lol, because they haven't spoke don't mean they hate each other lol.

Season starts in about two weeks, a lot more interesting stuff to talk about.
