All purpose NBA thread 07/08

Clyde Frazier's doing color. No "No play for Mr. Grey" yet, but he's great to listen to.

 

I grew up watching the Knicks. I hated those rhymes. The only thing they were good for was making fun of them. He sounded senile 10 years ago. I can't imagine how fucking loopy he sounds now.

 

Not so much of it in the broadcast tonight that I noticed. He sounded pretty good, except for expressing shock whenever someone would miss a FT, which his play-by-play partner pointed out.

 

How about those Bulls and their fantastic magical disappearing offense?

Crikey... 0-4? Not good.

 

3-0 Pacers v. 3-0 Clip Joint tonight.

 

*Shakes fist*

I'm not conceding anything yet!

 

Mmmmmmm, Red Bulllllllll ...

 

Thanks for stopping by Denver.
The Celtics are destroying the Nuggets right now, leading 77-38 at halftime. Nothing like a 39-point lead at the break.

 

Amazing what Garnett has done for this franchise. Double double in the first half. Pierce looks amazing tonight. Rondo's playing very good defense and has converted a handful of steals into easy buckets. Eddie House is shooting lights out, and Perkins is an underrated improving young player with a very strong work ethic.

And Youk and Wilfork are in the house.

 

You could see this coming. Second night of a back-to-back for the Nugs, after losing a tough one in NY last night. They don't play much D in the best of times, so it's not surprising that defensively they mailed it in tonight. Damn, I wish I was a gambler. Celtics laying the points would have been easy money.

 

Thank god long suffering Boston sports fan will have a reason to cheer this NBA season.

 

True, and don't forget the C's were in part playing for Doc Rivers after his recent tragedy.

The final score was probably closer than the actual game. Absolutely pathetic effort by the Nuggets. With all of that talent, they should never get blown out.
