Kobe 41 shots attempted, lol. Tough loss by GS yesterday, I hope it serves as a good learning experience.

He shot more than the other 4 starters combined. They did get the win, and he was a key reason why. So can't really hate on him for it. Plus, Howard was in foul trouble the entire game.

LOL @ the Christmas day NBA games. The teams playing on the NBA's "biggest regular season stage" today are the only teams who have a shot at winning a title.

Celtics, Knicks, Bulls, Heat, Nets, Hawks in the east. Clippers, Lakers, Thunder, Rockets, Nuggets out west. No Spurs nor Griz, but that's about it. No parity in the NBA whatsoever.

Why would you two come into a NBA thread just to bash the league. You don't like NBA basketball...ok don't come in the NBA thread.

Yeah, Ellis and Curry was never going too work. Too small and poor defensively too.

It was a tough trade to make. Ellis was a fan favorite. But Curry is the better player overall and it was smart to choose to build around him.

It was a bold move and it looks like it's starting to pay off.

The size wasn't the end of the world but the defense was bad enough to ensure they could only ever get so good with that construction. I also think Ellis was too ball dominant to thrive with Curry at PG.

I have wondered this whenever someone has made one of those posts in here.


Someone should create a "I hate the NBA thread" and just rant in there.

This Lakers/Knicks game already has potential to be awesome.

Today is about luring in the casual fan with big name franchises and star players. Hardcore folks are gonna watch regardless, so again...today is about the casual fan. NBA is king on Christmas.

Knicks are starting to hit the open 3s, odds of D'Antoni making a defensive adjustment: 1%

Yeah, pretty much. Love the NBA, but hate the way it works sometimes.

Those uniforms the Thunder were wearing were ugly. Kinda liked the Heat and Lakers ones though.
