J.R. Smith has literally been shanghaied away for the foreshortened 2011-2012 NBA season: rolling ILH sandbox thread

I'm just marveling at that jacket/tie/shirt combo

fashion options for 7'7 guys are prob. pretty limited in Romania.

I remember there was a Bulls-Bullets game where rodman and gheorghe mixed it up and almost got in a fight and then after the game they bro'd out and laughed about it. miss u Gheorghe

lol @ the ppl booing lebron

also oden should just retire too

The answer to that question is... well, no; he doesn't look healthy enough to run. But he has exploding kneecaps, so what do you expect?

first google hit for 'bone on bone' is b. roy ;_;

how the hell did oden get clearance to "run and cut" 2 days after that video?

btw, I would be the first to say that Oden's exploding kneecaps are not his fault, and I bear him no ill will. He's doing everything a human with exploding kneecaps could do to justify his contract.

he was probably just rehabbing and icing it or something before that was shot & he was sore

So fucking stoked for Warriors basketball this season, there's like no decent roster moves to make (nobody wants to take monta's dumb contract), the coach really just wants to play ball again, and Biedrins is still totally going to be our starting center. But fuck it, there's gonna be a season.

Biedrens and Ellis can be the anchors on a solid .490 ball club.

moonbop = polyphonic? but doesn't polyphonic post under polyphonic? hmm

I really hope Marc Jackson suits up at some point due to desperation or something

I'm username "blank" / "Hobbes": semilurker

feel like maybe they should quarantine the blazers until further notice

Haha just came here to post that, j0rd.

Hahaha

Haha
ha

sounds like the warriors' big move will be a huge offer for Deandre

so the blazers second best player retires, their first overall pick has a setback with his debilitating leg injury, and then their best player has heart surgery

quite the offseason so far...

hey even so the blazers are still better than the sixers

4 of the top 10 picks from the 2006 draft are now out of the league.

apparently the 29 owner vote dan gilbert wanted would have been collusion and a violation of the cba. Nice job, dan!

yeah what a bad year

celtics are signing david west??????????????

uhhh are they gonna amnesty kg?

the fuuuuuck

haha could you even imagine????

that would be some serious old school tea party shit

i mean i can because ainge does not give a fuck but other than that what the hell is the angle of having three power forwards who have all started for at least decent teams?

cannot comprehend amnestying KG

like if ainge did that ainge better hire the secret service to protect himself

mavs are gonna sign VC? lol

noted all-NBA defender vince carter

i'm not saying it's going to happen but i am saying that ainge is a crazy person

i mean they don't have much cap room right?

moonbop = polyphonic?

no

If the Warriors want a center who can't shoot free throws, why get Jordan when they already have Biedrins?

hmmm

WojYahooNBA Adrian Wojnarowski
As @Daldridgetnt reports, David West close w/ Celtics. Y! Sources say sides working on a sign-and-trade for a 3-year, $27-29M deal.

cuz biedrins is kinda just terrible all around

well this is quite the fucking coup

WojYahooNBA Adrian Wojnarowski
Celtics likely send Jermaine O'Neal and another player to New Orleans in sign-and-trade, sources said. Hornets would move players elsewhere.

johnhollinger John Hollinger
I'm baffled. David West deal would appear to kill the 3-way CP3 trade. Hornets can't take on any $ in West deal and still do CP trade.

stern veto forthcoming presumably

is KG gonna pay the 5...?
