    Re: OFFICIAL 2014 Around the NBA thread

    hello everybody. I'm a minnesota troll-doll. I decided, because I got tired of porking my gym socks, that I would gloat about the only thing good about the Minnesota basketball franchise right now (Kevin Love being named a starter).

    Instead of just being happy and letting you guys get upset about it, I thought I'd be clever and create a new screen name and be a bit of a tool about it. not realizing that the people here have access to IP addresses, and actually can find out that I'm the same person I was earlier (hello, Sean_the_Mannion here).

    I guess I'll go back to whacking off to anime.

    Kevin Durant (shoulder) is a gametime decision tonight vs #celtics. #thunder. He did not participate in shootaround.

    did he have a fall recently? I think even without Durant, they easily beat the Celtics.

    Tim Duncan drilled Durant as he went to the hoop the other night! You could tell he hurt it.

    The Heat are 7-6 without Wade this year and 24-6 with him. Obviously, they need him in there to win games.

    However, he's sat the last 4 and may sit a 5th straight. I get that they're trying to keep him rested, but I think it's unwise to basically punt homecourt advantage to Indiana by sitting Wade, who is obviously a necessary player for them.

    Last 10 Games:

    LaMarcus Aldridge: 29.3ppg, 13.6rpg

    Kevin Love: 20.4ppg, 10.9rpg

    Remind me again, who's the best power forward in the world?

    Here's why the Warriors have a real shot to get past the LACs and HOU into the 4th seed in the West... bitly.com/1hT82CY

    Tim Kawakami @timkawakami
    Just going by math, Portland is in a strong spot. RT @MissionSound this assumes you think the blazers have the 3rd spot locked down?

    Eric Pincus @EricPincus
    Unconfirmed but hearing 3pt shoot out likely to include Steph Curry, Kevin Love, Kyle Korver, Marco Belinelli - 4 of field of 6

    Eric Pincus @EricPincus
    Also likely for 3-pt shootout = Kyrie Irving, last year's winner (also unconfirmed)

    Eric Pincus @EricPincus
    Have not gotten wind of who would be #6 in the competition but from East


    WOW!!!! NO BLAZERS?!?!?!?!

    He will be busy regardless. Defending the Skills Comp. title and playing in the Rookie/Soph game on top of the actual All-Star game.

    that's my thinking. He probably will be in the skills competition. Had to leave a spot open in the 3 point contest open for wes after all
