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

just what they need

Perk lost 32 pounds and looks like a different dude!

big pic so didn't embed

wow! hes lost like a hundred pounds since being drafted

whut

what the fuck!

him and jonah hill need to be in a buddy comedy now

getting away from Big Baby was good for him.

not sure what thats gonna do for his game tho, his best skill was being able to lean on dwight howard

yeah i had the same thought

might improve his overall durability?

maybe KG gets to call him a cancer patient now

:-)

knicks are gonna get crawford in a sign-and-trade

sarcasm? sometimes it's hard to tell.

Janis Carr: Metta World Peace was joking when said he was out of shape. "If I showed u my abs right now, you'd probably leave your husband." about 34 minutes ago

lol

ramonashelburne @ramonashelburne -- Couldn't help notice Kobe Bryant head up to Kupchak's office after speaking with the media today.

i would have found it really hard to root against a lakers team with world peace and cp3 on it tbch

Rick Carlisle: "But I will say this, Khloe’s my favorite Kardashian. She’s the coolest."

awesome

pacers signed david west 2 years 20 million. seems like a decent deal

houston close to signing marc gasol for max/contract via sign-and-trade with memphis.

that's a good deal for the pacers

O_O @ marc

pretty sad about that, was loving that memphis team

yeah, they're totally blown-up now.

yeah why are all the fun teams getting blown up

what, I thought david west was going to celtics!

fell-through.

i think everyone in the world collectively decided that it made no sense

I wonder what houston is giving up, if anything? anyway, great deal for them.

I guess the plan all along was a gasol brothers tandem, that would have been so fun.

gasol/scola/valuncinas is a hilarious/great frontcourt

you mean motiejunas?

yeah

i mean what's the difference, but yeah

would gasol/scola be the first all-international frontcourt in the league?

did you get to see his awesome post-draft press conference where he basically challenged Dwight Howard to try to block him?

lol i don't recall

i mean what's the difference, but yeah

There's a huge difference! Valanciunas is gritty and works his butt off, Motiejunas is a pretty boy with skillz.

“Dwight Howard, these guys are strong, strong men,” McHale said. “The first time you play against Dwight Howard, you’ll understand a lot better.”

Still, when Motiejunas was asked if he was ready to make the jump to the NBA, he basically said bring it on.

“I just want to say maybe one word now about the thing about Dwight Howard,” Motiejunas said. “He can push me. If he can catch me, then we’ll see.”

Hearing this, McHale said: “Easy big boy, easy. They got TVs in Orlando.”

yeah good luck w/ that

lol he weighs 215 lbs and is 7'0

from youtube highlights he looks like a candyass

The 'skinny' on Motiejunas is that he he doesn't push himself very hard. He definitely needs to meet Dwight Howard and then, yes, "we'll see".

Motiejunas has Bargnani written all over him.

btw, rockets beat writers think that Memphis will probably just match the Gasol offer.

would gasol/scola be the first all-international frontcourt in the league?

Duncan and Oberto

memphis def needs to keep marc

i always forget that marc went to high school in memphis

Timmy's a US citizen right? and I guess by international I meant "players who played first in overseas leagues" xp

Timmy had the choice to play for States or Virgin Islands. Chose the States.

Yao and Scola fit the criteria.

Tim Reynolds @ByTimReynolds -- For all who keep thinking Chauncey Billups will be a Heat guard soon, just stop. There's maybe -- maybe -- a 1% chance.

so, what you're saying is . . . THERE'S A CHANCE?
