Re: NBA 2012-2013

if harden had shown up like he did against us that would have been a series. My opinion is the Thunder is the scariest team out in the loaded West. The East Per usual pretty much has one contender and a group of sacrificial lambs.
 
Re: NBA 2012-2013

Thunder don't have Harden anymore. Durant is a great player but 90% of his shots are long twos...Westbrook is talented but makes tons of mistakes and has major anger issues. Ibaka and Perkins are good defenders but very limited on offense. Kevin Martin is a great spot up shooter, but thats about it. Maybe the talent is just too spread out but I don't think the Thunder is that good, don't be surprised when they get eliminated before the finals.
 
Re: NBA 2012-2013

Hmmm...

"The Los Angeles Clippers have contacted the Boston Celtics about a possible trade for forward Kevin Garnett, The Sporting News’ Sean Deveney reported on Sunday. Citing multiple sources, Deveney reported that the Clippers’ offer would center on second-year guard Eric Bledsoe and veteran forward Caron Butler.

The report came as the Celtics beat the Clippers 106-104 in Boston on Sunday, the Celtics’ fourth straight victory since losing star point guard Rajon Rondo for the rest of the season. The Clippers also played without their star point guard in the loss — Chris Paul missed his seventh straight game with a bruised right knee cap.

Any deal would have to be completed by the Feb. 21 trade deadline. It would represent a major push by the Clippers to contend at the top of the Western Conference, while the Celtics would signal that they are ready to rebuild away from a long-time core that includes both Garnett and Paul Pierce.

Aside from Paul, the Clippers have also been hampered by injuries to guard Chauncey Billups and forward Jamal Crawford. Still, they sit third in the Western Conference even after Sunday’s loss, four games behind the San Antonio Spurs.

The Celtics remain comfortably in the No. 8 spot in the Eastern Conference at 24-23 after their four-game winning streak. In addition to Rondo, they also lost rookie big man Jared Sullinger for the season last week."

I don't get the garnett thing with the Clips. I mean granted it would be great for them to get him but then how do you use deandre jordan...just bring him off the bench? and is garnett a better option than jordan, esp on defense at this point in his career? bottom line is, without paul, it doesnt matter who you add...it's not gonna help.

Good win for the lakers tonight. Pulled together and got the W. Telling you, only 1 loss since I had that talk with them before the Utah game, looks like they heard my message.
