So much for 4-6 weeks.

Why rush him back? Makes no sense. People give Rose so much grief for sitting but it was absolutely the right thing to do.

Westbrook's injury wasn't as bad but at the same rate, you don't want to turn into a Grant Hill or a Penny Hardaway.

To me, Pierce is near the top of the list for most unlikeable players in the NFL.

I didn't know he played in the NFL

I would have liked for him to have waited 2-3 weeks, at least monitor his minutes. I'm not positive how many he played but I know it had to be over 30, and he wasn't holding back that worries me.

33,they should ease him into the lineup.

I'd give him 18-20 a game for a couple weeks, I know they want to win games but it's an 82 game season. Why risk the future for 6-8 games?

Im not watching the game, but it appears that Iguodala is going off tonight, 27pts and halftime, 6-8 from downtown.

Haha. I was a bit delirious.

James Harden needs to return his game check tonight. Yeesh.

He has always annoyed the ever livin out of me for some reason

Jealous of his beard, imo.

Hard to believe we're only a week into the season and the Pacers are the only undefeated team remaining. They've got a tough week though with back to back games with Detroit and Chicago followed by a day off and another back to back with Toronto and Brooklyn. I'd be more than happy if they can win 3 of those 4.

Haha

Bennett has not scored a field goal in four games, a surprising drought for the No. 1 overall pick. Bennett has missed all 15 shots from the field, including eight 3-pointers.

According to ESPN Stats & Information, his two points on free throws are the fewest for a No. 1 pick through four games in the common draft era (since 1966).

He's the fifth rookie since 1985 to begin his career by not scoring a basket in the first four games. However, none of the previous four were picked ahead of every other player in the draft.

Lets go Heat!

Heat not really coming out of the gate strong tonight.

That raptors thing along the baseline always screws with me

A lot of soccer teams have something similar painted in their fields. It looks stupid and almost illegible if you see it from any other angle than the primary sideline tv camera.

 

[bleedorange0037]

CJ Watson is making the most of his chance to start tonight due to George Hill being out.

Same lulz.

Vucevic is a man. 30pts, 21rebs and played clutch defense against the Clippers.
