Official NBA 2016-2017 Thread - 30 teams, 1 goal. 2 weeks left, so much can happen!!

Well don't tell me tell these coaches out here sitting players for rest purposes. I still can't get off of how the Kings sat Cousins like they got the best record in the league. :lol: Sat him for rest purposes a few months ago.

Kings was out of the playoffs mix last year resting young players

What them niggas need rest for their season over in April they got plenty of time to rest then.
 
1st time in the entire history of the NBA that's the only reason i posted it. this year triple doubles happen so often they're almost not noteworthy
one without 10 points is though imo

Yeah Westbrook and Harden has fucked up the whole excitement over a triple double. At least Green did something different. 10 steals.....shit. Most of these dudes can walk into triple doubles. Westbrook and Harden don't have great rebounders on their team and they dominate the ball. That's a double double at least right there just walking into the game.

naw fam, they havent fucked up anything; a triple double is still a great stat and what West and Harden is doing is simply amazing; Regardless of who they play with its amazing; And Im sure you can put a number of star quality guards on those teams(irving, thomas, lillard, etc) that would come no where near to doing what they are doing; what Green did last night was amazing in its own right as well....
 
following pop. but pop did it cause them dudes were old and it was the only way they could stay healthy. they missing that point and doing it just to give dudes days off and shit- im not even gonna hate on it cause shit they out there working hard but still
perverted the entire premise behind it
duncan ain't start resting till he was 36
manu when he started having chronic issues that would never go away same with parker too
before that they were in every game and especially on the rodeo trip
And thats how it should be; all these young players resting is full of shit...

Its not amazing to me. When Lebron does it is. But I mean you playing 40+ minutes a night......taking 20 shots, dominating the ball...its just doesn't have that same excitement to me. Like what Green did was amazing last night. Not because he only had 4 or 5 points but because it was effecient basketball. Wasn't no forced stats. I seen Westbrook the other night on a fastbreak wait for Oladipo so he could get a Triple double lol.

I don't fault Harden and Westbrook. I fault the NBA for their rules.

If it's that easy it would have been done before...Plenty of great players have dominates the ball and took a ton of shots; from kobe to mj to Iverson etc etc and they haven't come close; again if it wasn't great more players would do it; and on top of that, Houston nor okc wouldn't even be competitive, let alone winning if they wasn't doing what they are doing....

Kobe and MJ couldn't put up that many rebounds because they had good interior play.

I'm not saying its easy. I'm just saying its not as exciting as it once was. Westbrook and Harden doing it on one man teams. i don't think it was that Kobe or MJ couldn't do it. ITs that they didn't have to. That shit isn't winning basketball. Just not. Durant dipped out and peeped that shit. People get on KD's case but he knew playing with Westbrook wasn't going to win shit. Dude shooting 42% from the field. But putting up 30 a game? That doesn't add up.

Damn.
 
Westbrook had no help

Can't none of them niggas score or shoot

Yeah man.

No scoring ability whatsoever.

And they a sub-par defensive team.

But this is just ownage we're seeing and Russ can't do anything but play hard and lose badly in the process. Against his old teammate at that. Lol.

I'm not gonna lie. I might be a little salty about it.
