Sounds like he's playing. He's played one game since last Thursday. How much rest does a healthy professional athlete need? BNM
If you read the link, you will see he's a bit pissed about being called out for resting by Adam Silver. He basically wants to win enough that they can be like the Spurs and coast down the stretch. He says Pop gets leeway to rest players because of the clout he has. He wants to win more so that his coach (what's his name again, Tyrone Shoelaces?) has similar clout to rest his veterans in the future. BNM
He is also pissed at Lavar Ball for comments about LBJ and his kids. He has something to prove this next week.
I have no idea whose that is, but anything that provides extra motivation for LeBron when he takes the court tonight against DEN is fine by me. BNM
He is Alonzo Balls father. Top pick from UCLA. Or projected top 1 or 2. His father is an attention seeker and went out and said LBJ's kids wont be as good at basketball as his kids. He went on to slam the curry's too. And though his reasoning is valid, it was a complete douche thing to do and LBJ responded in kind with a shot over the bow telling him to leave him and his family out of his mouth. With the Tourney going right now, I know LBJ wants to put some serious numbers up so the media can go back at Lavar and push the drama.
Looking at how Dame has played since he got some rest at the Allstar break, our focus should be to get him as much rest as possible before the playoffs start. Dame and Vonleh are ballin right now. Vonleh looks like he is playing with a purpose. Somebody got through to him because he's dunking on people instead of getting swatted. Bring on the playoffs!
0-3 So far damn. We gotta win the next three. They are all easy and are pretty much wrapped in a pretty bow for us. Denver needs to start fucking losing. Hopefully Indiana will take em out.
I mentioned it this morning in my Playoff Odds thread: Indiana has a very unusual streak going. In their last 15 games, they have alternated wins and losses. If the pattern holds, they are due for a win against DEN tomorrow night. And then DEN has NOP on Sunday, who have won 5 of 6 and seem to have finally figured out how to win in the post Buddy Heald era. They beat MEM by 12, MIN by 13, Hou by 16 and us by 23. Come on rest of the league, give us some help here! BNM
Won't matter if we don't catch DEN. Eyes on the prize! Don't look back, something might be gaining on you! BNM
May not be close. DEN pulling way in the 2nd, up 15. Come on IND, this is no way to defend your home court. Channel your inner Larry. BNM
