2011 NBA SEASON

Westside · Dec 30, 2010

Thanks Jimmy C, for the photo. I suspected the mother would look like that. In a weird way its sad and dysfunctional. Griffin can play. I wish his father had been white.

I once knew Cory Gains. He played in the NBA a number of years and just recently won the WNBA Championship last year as the head coach. He was half black and his mom was Japanese. He looked more black, but you could tell he had some sushi in him.

White and Asian traitor women, just boggles my mind.

Even though the TWolves are still one of the worst teams in the nba, they have been playing better lately. They are actually learning how to win. Kevin Love had another big game last night and Millicic 16 points in only 20 minutes of play. Ridnour has been solid as the point guard. Hopefully they can build some chemistry and be alot better team for next year.

Gordon Hayward has averaged almost 14 pts a game over the last three. The last eight or nine games, Sloan typically plays Gordon the entire fourth quarter. It seems to me it is starting to click for him. He is fairly error free in his play. On defense his positioning is terrific. Shots arefalling, and he is beatinghisman off the dribble. Keep it up, Gordon!

Grizzlies ban gambling on team flights and you can guess who the players are that made this ban necessary. I'll give you one clue, it's not Marc Gasol.

Love had 35 points and 15 rebounds last night! He did all this without any athleticism.

This must be a sign of things to come...

Tyler Hansbrough - 23 points, 12 rebounds
Luke Harangody - 17 points, 11 rebounds
Kevin Love - 35 points, 19 rebounds
Chase Budinger - 10 points, 5 assists
Ryan Anderson - 16 points, 7 rebounds

These White American boys are 25-under!

J.J Redick (another young White American) has also been getting more minutes lately and is now averaging over 10 PPG. If JJ started or got 30-35 minutes a game, JJ could get to 20 PPG IMO.

Anderson Verajao (Brazilian mix) tore an ankle tendon.. ouchh.

And considering that Redick is usually put into games as a shut-down defender, his PPG increase is particularly impressive. Come to think of it, that's one of the things I find to be most impressive about JJ and his work ethic. At Duke, his defense was okay, but nothing special. Coming into the NBA, he was relegated to the bench and loathed by DWF's as a flop, but instead of sulking and going the Morrison route, he works and works and works at defense. Now he's a lock-down defender, in addition to the scoring ability he has always had.

B. Udrih continues to play well. He had 25 points last night. It's just too bad that like Love, he is on a team that needs alot of help in many different areas.

pistol pete · Jan 10, 2011

Reddick is part of a great back court now along with Nelson, Arenas and J Rich.
Ryan Anderson is getting more minutes and is playing well. He is a key factor for them.
Oh, and Hedo had 17 assists a couple of games ago.
3 white players in the rotation is not too bad. Hopefully J Will makes the playoff roster.
The other Florida team is doing well. They are not exactly a "white" team, playing run and gun street ball with LeBron, Wade, and Bosh, but they do have two white starters and Mike Miller off the bench.
So I guess we need to pull for these two teams to make the Eastern Conference Finals.
From a stylistic point of view, I like the way the Magic play. A top tier big man who blocks shots, rebounds and can get his own points, a banger at power forward (Bass), great guards, an all-around point forward (Hedo, like Odom, Pippen, and Toni Kukoc), and more shooters in the rotation (Anderson, J Will).

Out West, the Mavs, Spurs, and Lakers each have a white super star plus another good white player or so in the rotation (Barea, Bonner, Splitter, Bake).

during Southern snowstorm on Monday night, only 1,000 fans showed up for the Charlotte-Memphis game.

Claimjumper · Jan 12, 2011

Kevin Love with a nice 20 - 20 performace albeit in a losing effort to the spurs 107-96

JReb1 · Jan 12, 2011

The T-Wolves are starting to gel and when they get Rubio next year they
should make the playoffs if not contend for a title. The sky
is the limit for Love, Darko and Rubio (Ridnour is also pretty solid). Now that is a "big 3" I can root for!

white lightning · Jan 12, 2011

Is Rubio 100% committed to playing in Minnesota? I sure hope so. They need help bad. I hate seeing a star like Love have his performances be underapreciated because they lose almost every night. The guy gives it everything he has. What a athlete. Phenomenal basketball player.

He is on the record as saying he will come over next season. This of course can change and I'll believe it when I see it.

The only negative about Rubio coming over is that he will most likely start over Ridnour.

If Rubio is an upgrade then he should go to the T Wolves. Ridnour is your sixth man then or he goes to another team where he could start. Ridnour was supposed to back up Flynn who got injured and sucks. But I think Fredette is the better player for Minnesota and I posted that. Rubio would be great on the Clippers. The scorers on that team are Griffin and Gordon, add Singler, and Rubio could be the passer and defender who could play with either Eric Gordon or Baron Davis in the backcourt (a great three guard rotation). I posted how the Clippers could get Rubio by trading Kaman which would give the T Wolves another good big man along with Bledsoe who would make Jonny Flynn expendable. I just think that Fredette (who the T Wolves should draft) fits in better with Love and in the triangle offense you need a great shooter at point guard. The T Wolves 3 big man rotation of Love, Darko, and Kaman gives you everything and you can play all three over 30 minutes a game. You still have Beasley who is a great scorer along with a great guard rotation of Fredette, Wes Johnson, Ridnour, and Daniel Bledsoe. They could sign Shane Battier in the offseason to play both forward spots off the bench and trade Jonny Flynn for picks and a defensive guard.

Don Wassall · Jan 12, 2011

The Lakers beat the Cavaliers 112-57 last night.

That's the most lopsided score I can recall for an NBA game, the Lakers coming within a bucket of doubling their opponent's score.
During the game, LeBron James -- megalomaniac doesn't begin to describe this pampered child -- twittered: "Crazy. Karma is a bitch. Gets you every time. It's not good to wish bad on anybody. God sees everything!" Let's hope so, and that He's had about as much as He can take.

j41181 · Jan 13, 2011

The new officiating rule is simply terrible for the NBA as a whole...
5 TECHNICALS in 10 seconds????

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Video-Ref-whistles-five-technicals-in-10-second?urn=nba-306621

Main reason why the Wolves lost to the Spurs. I hope more incidents like this happen, anything to further weaken crowd attendance. Lebron's comment speaks for itself, the league is full of immature and uneducated delinquents. Edited by: j41181

Minnesota 109, Washington 97

That was awesome, by far their best win of the season!

Kevin Love's (33 points, 11 rebounds) anticipation for the ball is unbelievable, one of the best in recent years. His shooting could rival Nowitzki's in the coming years, and his passing and defense is steadily improving. Best White American in the last 10 years hands down. Darko Milicic (14 points, 11 rebounds) is steadily shaking off that quad injury, I just love how he dominated his Chinese counterpart. Strong candidate for MIP (Most Improve Player). Luke Ridnour (16 points, 9 assists) is having the best season of his career, he's the team's lead point guard for now, and I hope it stays that way for the whole season.

Very strong effort from Kirk Hinrich (18 points, 5 assists), he's putting together a fine season, despite being on a lousy team, to go with an overrated John Wall (-18 +/- rating).

j41181 · Jan 14, 2011

I've got a feeling Johnny Flynn will one day end up playing overseas. He's so ineffective, in both shooting and decision making. If Ricky Rubio is smart, Minnesota would be the most ideal place for him. He reminds me of Rajon Rondo due to his passing, speed, and defensive hustles (lots of steals).

JReb1 · Jan 14, 2011

The T-Wolves are becoming the 1st NBA team I've rooted for or followed since the Bulls/Jazz in the 90's. With Rubio (hopefully) on board next year and Love and Darko still being so young, the Wolves have a chance to become the best mostly White dominant team since the 80's Celtics.

Darko should soon have the title of one of the NBA's All-Time Top-Ten busts label removed from him permanently. I think he's currently listed as the #3 All-Time bust...

Could this be the next Bird, McHale duo and maybe Rubio as a better Ainge, I sure hope so and so should the NBA!

Jimmy Chitwood · Jan 14, 2011

hang on a second gentlemen before we get carried away ...

as much game as Love has, as much potential as Milicic has, and as much flair as Ridnour has, the Timberwolves have a looooooooooong way to go before they will be like the old Celtics teams. as of this moment, they are a "mere" 20 games below-.500. so, while there is a bright future, the present is woefully ugly.

let's just hope the young 'Wolves continue to improve, and in the next year or two we'll see what they've turned into.

pistol pete · Jan 15, 2011

Rubio is a good defender and he has good size. That would help.
Yeah, I think they need to get rid of Flynn. He has some value maybe they can get a draft pick for him.
The team mostly needs a third big man and a veteran presence.
