Ladies and gentlemen, your 2011-12 Washington Wizards

 

And winner.

When they talk about a "Thibs-type of player," it's obvious they're speaking about JaVale McGee. He hustles back on defense so early!

 

i wonder what JaVale McGees mom thinks about that

The actual audio from that play is hysterical: "WHERE... was he?"

Chauncey Billups could be done for the year

Broken foot for Danilo Gallinari

Chauncey Billups could be done for the year

 

I saw achilles injury on espn and knew it was bad

Chauncey Billups could be done for the year

That could be a wrap for his career.

i wonder what JaVale McGees mom thinks about that

 

It would hilarious to dub a scream of "Javaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaale" right before he runs the other way, on to that video.

Don't worry, he'll disappear into nothingness soon enough. He's not a very good player.

 

You'll get to see just how bad he is at basketball very soon.

 

Rubio vs. Lin.

Actually, I disagree. I watched most of that Knicks game because the Bulls were up by 30 points at halftime. Lin does have some nice moves at the net, and he has solid court vision. This would be like completely dismissing CJ Watson because you'd never heard of that D-Leaguer prior to dropping 40 for the Warriors.

 

I suggest watching Lin play a couple of times before declaring he's not very good.

He can't dribble with his left hand and his outside shot is Rubioish. From my experience watching basketball players play basketball, you need to be able to dribble with both hands to be a real NBA player (especially at point). He's had two very nice games, but once teams start adjusting and forcing him to go left, he's going to regress hard.

Allen Iverson much?

Allen Iverson much?

 

Stop it. Iverson was an excellent ball-handler (though he got away with carrying a lot) and one of the quickest players the game has ever seen. I'm not gonna pretend to know a lot about Lin. I watched some of the game last night. He certainly doesn't posses the quickness or ball-handling ability that is required to play the point full-time. He'll definitely need assistance (screens, etc) in getting free consistently. And there's no way in hell he can guard anybody. It's nice little Rudy-like story right now. It's not gonna last.

I thought Jeremy Lin played some pretty good defense...? If anything, that's one of the things that's kept his pro ball career afloat up to this point.

I just read an article on CSN chicago about how Rose should move to SG and why its a good idea. Horrible Idea. I'm not even going to link it, it's so stupid.

I think we should move Kevin Cross to a new job.

Dude? I was referring to the fact that the Answer was totally right hand dependant.

Ok, let me rephrase what I previously said:

He can't dribble with his left hand and his outside shot is Rubioish. From my experience watching basketball players play basketball, 99.9% of players need to be able to dribble with both hands to be a real NBA player (especially at point). He's had two very nice games, but once teams start adjusting and forcing him to go left, he's going to regress hard.

 

Edit accepted.

 

Well I'm on the Lin Bandwagon, and I'm riding him like friggin' Secretariat.

 

EDIT: The big test for Lin will be how that offense functions when Melo is back. D'Antoni has finally found a PG who can adequately play the pick and roll, a must in his offense. Lin and Stoudemire could actually have a nice 2 man game going, but if Melo is going to jabstep and hog the ball for 10-15 seconds 20+ times a night, well that ain't gonna be good for anyone. Hence why Galinarri would be a much better fit in that offense IMO.

Prior to his injury, Carmelo was playing a much better team game. This has been a nightmare season, but I'm sure he'll be on board with Linsanity.
