    i still think tyreke could get back to a 20/5/5 with the right team. Think he'd be a great fit at the 2 here, we coudl really use someone who scores at the rim like he does. He's a good passer and handles the ball very well for a 2 guard

    Garbage time in the NYK/CLE game is like watching the 1951 all star game.

    I just read the Rumors that kyrie wants out. To bad he has no leverage what so ever unless he is willing to take the 1 year qualifying offer and lose tons of money.

    Woj has proven that he has legit sources. ESPN guys spew BS 99% of the time.

    In David Stern's 1st day as NBA Commish (2/1/84), Bernhard King scored 50 points for the Knicks and Magic Johnson had a triple-double.

    In order to sign a 2nd superstar, don't you need to first have a superstar?

    Rose can come back from his injury, guys without cartilage like Roy and Bynum never can

    I know. I've always been skeptical about Rose though. I imagine we'll find out next season.

    Re: OFFICIAL 2014 Around the NBA thread

    for sure. It IS very worrying that he has pretty much missed 2 + consecutive seasons due to injury. I really hope this is the end of it for him. I'm sick of seeing so many superstars careers ended due to injury.
