I hate Mo Williams

Actually, I hate every NBA player named Williams

so I guess you hate the Nets?

I mostly just laugh at the Nets. They should be called NJ Williamses though.

Why?

His name is Williams and he used to be a LeBron sidekick.

ah that makes sense… he also made the all-star spot as a 17ppg point guard who didn’t pass the ball :P

All-star selections are always ridiculous.

I love hearing K-Mart comments about Duncan when Duncan destroyed him in the ’03 finals

Hah, yeah. He still thinks he can shut down Duncan.

i don’t understand how he thinks he’s effective against Timmeh.

Dont listen to him. He is a former thugget

Don’t listen to him. He has a lips tattoo on his neck.

What did he say?

He said that Duncan loves space so what he usually does is crowd him, which, according to K-Mart, bothers Duncan a lot.

Oh, I see. That explains K-Mart’s success in the league.

So what else do I search for for feeds? Sorry to keep asking.. They’re all choppy as heck.

Last one in, shut the door!

Kia sponsors the Clippers. This tells me all I need to know

Chris Paul threads his passes through a Kia.

So Martin considers himself a Duncan Stopper…

I constantly measure myself by people who will always be better than me

I’m glad we didn’t get him.

people don’t remember the ’03 finals :P

and his days as a nugget

KIA considers itself BWM competitor

Kia considers itself a real car

Martin thinks of himself as a real NBA player

It’s seems that we downplay on defense in honor of the ABA every time we wear those

Yay Clippers turnover!

Yes Tony!!

Wait… Splitter is injured…

yes it is a sad day indeed.

Bonner misses a 3 and ruins the new thread already.

And then a Clipper makes one

Oh, Tony, make that…

god this game is painful to watch……

2 3s in a row. Why can’t we buy a shot?

i dont get nervous any more

Spurs games are about the only thing that still do it for me..

lol sad.

Our bench will come through

“Splitter will not return. Right calf strain.”

Fuuuu

Free Agents Bigs

Centers

Ajinca, Alexis
Armstrong, Hilton
Dampier, Erick
Fesenko, Kyrylo
Gadzuric, Dan
Mbenga, DJ
Przybilla, Joel
Ratliff, Theo
Thomas, Etan

Power Forwards

Allen, Malik
Songaila, Darius
Powe, Leon
Powell, Josh
Jackson, Darnell
Dorsey, Joey
Diogu, Ike
Smith, Joe
Elson, Francisco

this is what happens when you have a lockout and so many players choose Europe over waiting the NBA. The league has lost a lot of decent bench players.

Ratliff, come back, you’re forgiven.

Wow, nobody’s picked up Fesenko? Guess he’s that bad.

He is a poor man’s Jason Collins.

NO SPLITS! $%^&($%^&$%^&)(#$%^

I don’t like today.

time to start drinking?

It’s never too early!

Oh, I’m waaay ahead of you

I might need to play catch up…

damn it. Another Clippesr 3!

Well, this day is ruined. How do I occupy myself until An Idiot Abroad comes on?

What is that?

It’s a travel show with Ricky Gervais and Karl Pilkington.

Hm. Sounds good. I still haven’t watched that movie with the two Brits just going to different restaurants and chatting.

Trust me, it’s hysterical

how did tiago even get injured? I didn’t see anything.

Running… he’s not used to it

and that is why Pop only plays him 20 minutes a game… he played nearly 30 in the last game..

Horns and Spurs playing, not the way I want….

This is why I don’t watch College Basketball

yeah, the lack of the LHN might be the best gift so far, the way my Horns have been playing this year… they’re really young though..

Maybe I’ve been betrayed by both my CBB teams this year. One of them is 0-25

Yes, Green, just like that.

I can’t tell if they have good defense or we have bad offense

A little of both. They’re closing out on our 3s

Little of both.

They are running at shooters. A few fakes and they will shoot free throws

we’ll see a lot of small ball today?

Kawhi should play 4 the entire game now.

I have a feeling we’re gonna need a Korean comic today.

make it a good one

Just can’t remember which ones I’ve used already. You guys saw the one about the sushi platter?

yeah why not? we are playing like shit and tiago got injured….this cant get worse..right?

It can with Korean comics.

Why the hate, you hating hater?

Green with the floater!

Finally, Green did something good on the floor

he’s been keeping his hands up in passing lanes… I’m impressed

Lets go Spurs.

Leonard in.

Bad shot Tony.

That’s how you call a time-out? Slashing movement to the left?

The refs knew the clips needed a timeout so they took the liberty to call it for them.

Nice. More of that.

Yayy a foreign feed, I prefer this, than the Clipps feed

I’m still trying to find one that is

a) not choppy as heck

b) not so bad quality that you can’t see who’s who

wow. Parker just ran through the Clippers’ D…

More of this!!

oh, those throwaway jerseys again!

Yeah they’re terrble

oh, have you noticed them as well?

=

this is worse

Really? I think he looks cool.

I think it’s time for Tony to put the cape on

Wow, Martin, what a player

lets win this game!!!

just when we we’re rolling, Tiago gets injured. FU!!!! Team Chuck is in danger!

How worried should I be by a strained calf

Bet Shaq is happy he didn’t make that Tiago-Lin trade.

Strained calf is that bad?

It depends. He could miss a game or he could miss a month

I didn’t even see him getting hurt. What the heck happened?

If he got injured running like people say, I dont think its serious

Yeah, Pop probably wanted to give him the night off.

And lose the game to make Chilai look good.

That Chilai is a profit.

There was a replay showing Griffin knocking the ball from his hands (isn’t listed as a blocked shot) and it seemed the ball may have glanced off his head as he pulled away. He left the game after that.

I thought when he was leaving he might have been hit in the eye by the ball, I take it he may have twisted his body some when the ball hit him.

This has been awful so far and we’re only down six.

Tiago out worries me though.

… Deandre for 3… worse than Ben Wallace

Just a long two i thought.

it as 2 I think. doesn’t make that any better…

Nice Kawhi!

That was a great jump hook

The second jumper in D. Jordan’s career

what the hell was that!?

Yep, must be a Spurs game, centers scoring from way out.

TP is putt5ing the team on his back

he’s got the cape now, he better

He’s basically been doing this all season.

He missed, so he sucks.

Gaaaah we gotta get rebounds.

TPTPTPTPTPTPTPTPTTPTPTP!!!!

Get a score here boys.

Is Manu ok? he just got thrown aside by Jordan

wow DJ was superwide open for that J

OH CRAP
I JUST REALIZED… TIAGO’S ON MY FANTASY TEAM

he’s on mine too… :(

It keeps getting worse

OH NO WHAT A TRAGEDY

there you go! Parker!

Clippers anothe turnover. Make ’em pay!

Another BS call in favor of Griffin.

They’re getting away with a lot

Kawhi, make every triple please.

Dang it Manu shot still way off.

Green’s here to save us

One of my favorite things about the Spurs is how little their role players complain to the refs… They just lok over at Pop and say “OK”

SALSA VERDE

I like a little spice in my salsa

whew they missed a three.

Miscommunication by the spurs on that defensive possession

Miscommunication by the spurs on that defensive possession

GREEN! Three point game, people. Somehow.

seriously? how has that happened?

Green for threeeeeeeeeee

DANIEL GREEN DE TRES!!!!

I wonder when you foreigners started thinking that Castillian sounded cool. Not that I’m complaining. :)

Butler… doing what he does.

I love that Leonard is keeping Griffon honest… wow

Yes he’s fouled, but he’s playing good defense

I wouldn’t be so annoyed with that call, if Griffen weren’t getting so many other bad calls

Is that margin a freaking miraclw or wat?

Yeah, no easy baskets.

Does Griffin strike anybody else as a bit of a dumbass?

It’s just the look on his face. Reminds me of Eli Manning

He looks like a bit off a roughneck. But he’s pretty funny in interviews.

oh no Bonner back in…Griffin licking his chops

Shit Bonner is back………………….Lob Fest

“Alley to Bonner” is what they call a turnover in Canada.

We are so blessed to have a FO that realized Kawhi and Green are that good

Seriously. No FO is perfect, but we are damn lucky.

WOw

blake getting every star call

He’s the Nba’s next big star

There’s a reason they are called “star” calls.

timmy showing Blake how its done.

Nice shot BigFun!

Holy shit, Timmy. You’re on fire.

Hopefully Bonner can keep up his good shooting.

Duncan is pissed at himself for missing so many jumpshots

Whew, hard fought rebound.

How does Timmy not get that call when jordan pushed him in the back

Wow… that’s 2 fouls by Jordan and no call

WOW THE REFS ARE KILLING US!!!!

Griffen looks like he’s flopping

Damn Jordan held TP there

Jordan is justing fouling under the basket…………….no call again

Shit another lost rebound.

CRAWFORD!!!!! (SHAKES FIST)

I just imagined that in the Shatner screaming Kahn voice.

wow? ref, where’s the foul?

Finally the Clippers are missing their open 3’s…

thats our ball!

TIMMEH TIES THE GAME

Timmy! Tie game!

TIM DUNCAN YOU ARE TIMELESS.

Sometimes I think of guys like Wilt, and I wonder what it must’ve been like to be that good, for so long. But then I remember I got to watch Tim Duncan, the best PF of all time.

Lol what the heck was that??

Griffen just falls out of bounds?

They need to call Jordan for those fouls… he’s mauling Duncan

BigFun double double?…

LA looks so tired…

Maybe they wore themselves out

thats what happens if you keep scoring on dunks and lobs.

Shot clock violation!

thank you Timmeh

Yeah Timmy offensive board and the score!!

Tie game. how did that happen

Big Fun happened

on offense, he’s been awesome

On defense, he’s been glorious.

shhh… Leonard guarding Blake is what happened… don’t tell anyone

Great D… That was fantastic

Timmeh! Tied game!

Did anyone else see Jordan throw Manu to the ground?

yes… and then clotheslined Parker on the next possession

Just now!

I’ll take a tie at Half

And we get the final shot.

Would be great to go to the half with the lead

lol This game is a comedy

Awesome shot clock violation.

Even shot clock violations look cool in LA

looked like they had no idea time was running out…

4.4 seconds plenty of time.

Holy Shite!!
I leave and come back and we are tied??!!

went to get a drink?

Timmy, on both ends.

A couple of tweaks from the master CIA himself and we should skate in the 2nd half

That is quite the shiner on Duncan

he got that from the Pistons’ game right?

I thought the same thing. Did he have a fight with Pop over their favorite wine vintages?

TONY PARKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TONY FOR THE LEAD!

Those uniforms turned the Clippers into the Thuggets

Does that mean we’re the Clippers?

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONY!

DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT?

NO I MISSED IT! WHAT HAPPENED?

SOMETHING COOL I HOPE?

ONE WOULD HOPE SO, CONSIDERING.

I DIDN"T, IT HAPPENED SO FAST!

TONY FUCKIN PARKER!!!!

Looks like the wrong point guard is starting for the All-Star game

I think Jordan made AT LEAST 4 Over-the-back fouls. NONE were called.

Duncan is getting pushed to the other side of the key every rebound

And yet the old man perseveres.

wow 17-5 run by the Spurs!

Shit how did Parker do that? He’s a god!

Awesome run since I started watching the game on the foreign feed, but now it started to lag, should I change it

TP!!!! FOR THE LEAD!!!!

Tony, coasting to the hole.

Holy carp are we winning?

Yes, we are +2, amazine

Are we really leading or the shrooms are effecting me in a wierd way?

lol

seriously?

He can type, right? So no.

OH MAMA!!

Amazing drive to the basket and the score in 4 seconds!!

Thats quickness, I couldnt make it to half court

Unfortunately, no “Oh Mama!” today.
Andrew Monaco and Danny Ferry calling for the Spurs side.

Parker for 2! Spurs lead at the half!

A 17-5 Run to end the quarter. Awesome

This is OFFICIALLY Tony’s team…Manu said so

This is DUncan’s Team

This is the people’s team.

This is my team

Suddenly I am quite excited about this game.

Told you they just wanted to get their bad quarter out of the way in the first.

WOW TONY! WOW!!!

Watching the Nets-Bulls game on WGN. Nets with a 15 point lead in Chicago.

Do we call up someone if tiago is out a few games?

No one’s on assignment, so it would be a 10 day contract to anyone. Could possibly bring Malcolm Thomas back from the LA DLeague team.
