Kardiac Kids 6 Posted December 22, 2012 Cavs need a bench badly. CJ Miles is all we have. I'd like to draft/sign a Forward and let Gee go back to be the 6th man which he was solid at. My wishlist right now is Shabazz Muhammad Nerlens Noel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vin+ 3,121 Posted December 22, 2012 The Dallas Mavericks will waive Derek Fisher, according to Marc Stein of ESPN.com. "In Tuesday's game against Philadelphia, I suffered an injury to my patellar tendon," Fisher said. "With this news and the difficulty I have been having being away from my family, I have asked the organization to waive me so I can return home." We may have seen the last of Derek Fisher in the NBA and his buzzer-beating shot with 0.4 seconds left vs. the Spurs in 2004 is one of the most memorable moments in NBA history. Darren Collison should be able to maintain his starting gig. Source: Marc Stein on Twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted December 23, 2012 The sad truth about Darren Collison is that he couldn't maintain his starting job after Derek Fisher (at this age) was signed. Dallas is in the hurt bag at point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014 Posted December 26, 2012 Well we know one thing for sure; the Thunder will never be able to beat the Heat consistently until the refs quit choking on the Heat's dicks And before anyone says, "b-b-but the Heat got called for about the same amount of fouls!!!!", try watching a game and see how often the Heat absolutely MAUL people when they're driving down the lane and they rarely get called for it. Haslem was on the ground and grabbed Westbrook's feet and made him do a faceplant...no call. The Thunder get a fastbreak shot and get their arms grabbed on three separate occasions...no call. It's hard to sit through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BwareDWare94 723 Posted December 26, 2012 (edited) 2 things on Miami/OKC -Agree with Zack, tenfold. I'm not saying that strictly as "I agree with him," but more that you should agree with him. That game was officiated terribly. Cheap fouls on Durant that kept him out of a good portion of the second quarter, the maulings that Zack pointed out whereas OKC can't get away with anything. It's just flat out bad. -What on God's green earth was Scott Brooks doing having Serge Ibaka try to defend LeBron? Are you fucking kidding me? Ibaka is a great shot blocker, not a great defender. Thabo Sefalosha is a great defender, Durant has the speed to at least give LeBron a run if Kevin decides to focus on the defensive end. Ibaka should be under the freaking basket. It's as simple as that. You don't take your best rim protector away from the hoop by putting him on a wing player. Scott Brooks has done nothing less than a commendable job with OKC, but by God if he doesn't make some dumbass decisions here and there. Several points about Houston/Chicago -Omer Asik deserves to be in the MIP discussion, and perhaps leading the pack. He has been twice the player anybody thought he would be overall and miles better on offense than anybody could have predicted. Houston, we have a center. -Marcus Morris should stay with the #1 unit. He's more consistent, that way. He won't shoot well every night, but he'll become more consistent with these opportunities. Patrick can come off the bench. -Houston has begun to run the offense through Jeremy Lin more often, and it's paying off. Harden can move without the ball. Lin is a real PG, and it shows when he's the primary ball handler. -Parsons might be getting healthy. He finally had a decent post-injury shooting night. He's already the second best starting #3 in the Southwest and, as an overall player, he could eventually bypass Rudy Gay (I'm talking in a couple of years, obviously. Not now) if he can keep producing 18-22 PPG. (which he was prior to his shoulder injury). I realize this will look like a far-fetched claim, but as a fan who watches both Houston and Memphis quite often, I feel like Chandler Parsons is far from his ceiling. Gay is as good as he'll ever be. -Thibs is easily a top NBA coach. This Chicago team should be below .500. They are baaadddd.

Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014 Posted December 26, 2012 I honestly don't know if I want to waste my time ever watching another Thunder/Heat game, because all of them recently have turned out like tonight's game. I generally think that the referees in the NBA are terrible, but these Heat matchups take it to another thirty levels. This game and two or three of the Finals games last year were completely decided by the refs (argue if you want, but Game 2 is not debatable). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
