NBA Season 2015/16

[jvalles69]

Once again I don't care!  They are not playing the same calibre of teams that the Bulls played in the 90's, players are whining doges these days who get their coaches sacked and have to "rest" so often they may aswell reduce the number of games played during regular season to get some higher quality out of the players!  1 injury and they fall well short of that record...

It's not just wins and losses though, they are putting up numbers that are unheard of as a team. They were a top 10 team historically last year on numbers and are backing it up with an even better season. People keep doubting them yet they are consistently performing to a level that no other team has in the history of the game.

Oddly enough, the Spurs and Warriors this year are 1 and 2 all time in point differential. Creating a list of 10, out of the 8 other teams on that list, all but 1 won the championship, the team that didn't (Bucks), lost to another team on that list.

I think their are two sides, the doubters and the people who have jumped on them to be the geratest team, this is where I feel fence sitting is justified for while longer.  ;)

4 game suspension for Blake Griffin, what a joke ::)

why's that?
I don't know much about the incident mind you - i'd read he'd injured his own hand/arm??

he punched an equipment manager in the face at a restaurant, then again out the front of the restaurant, broke his hand ;D

Dont forget that he actually followed the equipment manager outside to hit him again. 

I don't feel that 4 games is enough.  I would lose my job if I punched a fellow employee

they do seem to get away with anything.

people were calling for Dustin to be banned for a year.

Im sure an AFL player would probably be gone unless it was a superstar. saying that is a bench player in the nba punched someone they would be gone too.

Melo won't go to Cleveland

[valkorum]

Melo won't go to Cleveland

Why not, more chance of a Ring there than he will ever have at NY

Melo does have a no trade clause in his contract, so he has to agree to the trade.

Latest report I've seen..

Nothing is happening with Kevin Love (shoulder) and a trade to the Celtics.
There will definitely be rumors around Love heading into the deadline because of how playoff teams attack him in pick-and-roll. Love's shoulder injury seems like it's minor, so he should be ready to roll next week.

He's mentioned so many times he's not leaving and it seems as if he's moving towards establishing his brand and that which is all based on the opportunities he gets in NY

But hey stranger things have happened

This works on the trade machine.. :)
Boston get: Kevin Love
Cleveland get: Carmelo Anthony
New York get: David Lee, Jared Sullinger, Boston's unprotected 2016 pick (pick 23 right now), Dallas Mavericks 2016 first round pick top 7 protected (pick 19 right now)

Who say's no? Boston get an all-star in Kevin Love. Cleveland get a superior player in Carmelo and let's them go a bit smaller to match up with Golden State. New York get off of Carmelo's 4 year, 22.9 million dollar contract, not sure about you, but 34/35 year old Melo I don't think will be worth that. They also replenish their draft pick stocks and get a decent young player in Sullinger to build around Porzingis.

The 3pt contest is the best event by far.

I'd be more impressed with Andre Drummond going 2/2 at the free throw line than dunking it like that.
