NBA Game Action: 12/8/2016

Go Blazers and Bulls. I don't care who wins the Jazz or Warriors game.

 

The Nuggets seem to be stacked with talent man. Nurkic, Jokic, Mudiay, Garry Harris, Jamal Murray, Will Bartan are all promising young players. I wonder if Gallinari is on the block, he is close to being a quasi-star so they may want to keep him, but this team could benefit from trading him, tanking this year, and completely rebuilding. Wilson Chandler makes a hell of a 6th man too.

They're in really good position compared to where they were a couple years ago.

 

Maybe Memphis finally loses today.

 

Jeez Rubio cant even make wide open layups..

 

Yeah, he's gone from a somewhat useful player to a complete liability. He should at least go somewhere where he can handle the ball and he's not stepping on the shoes of young budding stars. Having him play a secondary ball-handling role and having him sit in the corner is pretty useless considering how bad at shooting he is.

 

I wonder what they're waiting to trade Rubio...maybe nobody wants him (if not for peanuts). I mean, he has a good/ok contract as today, but in a couple of years how much money will he comand? What are the teams willin to trade for him, just to have to deal a new contract with Fegan with a salary cap higher than today? Eh...maybe they're already resigned to trade him for a little return, and they're just waiting to see if/when Dunn will step up a bit.

 

man, the refs are straight hating on derozan tonight. there have been at least 4 horrible calls against him that i can remember. one where he got slammed into by a help defender on a jumper, another fastbreak where he obviously got bumped and knocked down, another jumper where someone ran into him from the side just after he released it, and then that rebound fall down jump ball, which, even if it wasn't a foul, certainly wasn't a jump ball considering the defender barely grazed the ball.

 

Jazz are gonna lose by 100 tonight. Warriors are just unfair, its pathetic.

 

I see Golden State is struggling again tonight. Only up by 20 in the first quarter.

 

What do you think Rockets record would be with Thibs? He isn't looking very impressive. Not showing much insight.

 

Chandler Parsons wearing the deepest v-neck shirt I've ever seen.

 

Grizzlies will never lose a close game it seems. Marc Gasol and Troy Daniels hitting clutch 3s.

 

Memphis you gotta be ****ing kidding me!!!

18-4 run...

Troy Daniels with a 3 to lead with 1:42 left to play..

Gasol 36 points..

 

Grizzlies are like the most clutch team in the NBA.

 

Toney Douglas getting in on the action hitting the clutch go-ahead jumper.

 

Lillard and McCollum suck balls defensively.

 

How did Turner miss that layup?

 

Do Grizzlies get a lot of calls at the end of close games? How they do they keep pulling them out?

 

Refs completely ruined the end of that game wow
