2013-2014 NBA Regular Season Thread

Hope San Antonio wins this game. I'm really looking forward to see how the Knicks will respond after that outing by melo

 

Huge blowout in Miami. LeBron, Ray Allen, Chris Bosh, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili all sitting in the 4th.

You know who's not sitting? Wade, who barely plays because of his knees.

Brilliant coaching again, Spoelstra.

 

de Colo made one of the best passes I've ever seen


Jeffers failed to handle it cleanly, otherwise he had a wide open dunk/layup.

Behind the back pass from behind the 3 point line to a guy wide open under the basket.


Wade played 24 minutes.

Yep, 20+ point game with under 5 to play, Wade is playing. That makes sense. Why waste him in important situations when you can use him in garbage time?

 

Kings down 11 with 3:20 left, Michael Malone instructs his players to start fouling on every possession.

He must've bet the over. Game was on pace to stay well under, but with all the intentional fouling, the final score was 106-99.

The betting total was 204.

Yep it was worth a shot and they converted poorly so that's better than just allowing them to use up the clock and still convert shots like they'd been doing all of the 2nd half. Thomas had gone out at half time so it was without Boogie, Gay and Thomas. Not too fussed, there's more signs being shown this season than anything that's happened the previous five and it's a good draft to be poor in. We're bottom of the West but would only be a few games out of East playoffs. That conference.

 

Kanter shooting over 75% from the line.

Evans was at about 73% entering last night.

So I guess he got lucky with them missing some.

re: Thomas

he played most of the third quarter. Apparently he was feeling sick.

4:18 Jimmer Fredette enters the game for Isaiah Thomas 60-70

 

Ken Berger ‏@KBergCBS 19s
Minnesota's Nikola Pekovic has bursitis in his right ankle and will be re-evaluated in 7-10 days, team says after MRI today.

 

Sounds like he'll be out at least 10 days.

Tonight's top game is Spurs/Rockets. Harden was ruled out.


Houston also missing Garcia and Asik, while San Antonio is without Leonard, Splitter, and Danny Green.

 

Popovich had Spurs players foul Dwight Howard intentionally for a large portion of the third quarter.

Not the first time he's done this against Dwight, of course.

It's killing the Spurs. They were up 7 at the half and trail by 8 after the third. 15 point swing in the quarter.

 

yeah, he's out for tomorrow.

 

Lebron vs kd tonight!

 

Spurs chances hinge on health. They were fortunate the last two seasons to enter the playoffs at nearly 100%, not looking good right now.
