Re: ''Danny Ainge needs to shut the fuck up and manage his own team.''

Stephen Curry is going to break the record for 3-pointers in an NBA season, brehs.

Nobody praised Monta Ellis when the dude averaged like 48 for an entire season.
Kobe used to average 40+ minutes earlier on in his career too. It's not nearly as impressive when you're in your mid 20s. He also wasn't injured. :kobe

Not when he shoots 5-18 :kobe
Shall we ignore that near triple double. :kobe8

Kobe almost played the whole game and couldn't find the time to get a trip-dub? And we're pretending he's elite?

Re: ''Danny Ainge needs to shut the fuck up and manage his own team.''

Shocking stuff from the Clippers last night got destroyed by the Rockets without Harden, Del ***** must go this guy is an awful excuse for an NBA coach. No way should we be losing to Rockets like that without Harden, we need Phil Jackson to come in quickly to coach the side or we will be gone in round 1 of the playoffs at this rate.

It's like dejavu all over again. Back in November, Gregg papovich rested parker, Duncan, ginobli and I believe Danny green as well against Miami, Because they had to face the Memphis grizzlies the next day. Now tonight. They have to face Miami, and tomorrow they have to face the Memphis grizzlies.

I got a feeling Gregg is going to bench his players tonight like last time.

Re: ''Danny Ainge needs to shut the fuck up and manage his own team.''

MILWAUKEE – With Derrick Rose working hard to recover from his torn ACL, Ronnie Brewer believes the Chicago Bulls made a mistake by leaking that the 2011 NBA MVP has been medically cleared to return.

“I felt it was unfortunate the [Bulls] released that Derrick was cleared to play,” Brewer told RealGM on Saturday night. “It’s a process and that’s a dramatic injury. If you’re not 110 percent mentally there and you still have thoughts and regrets about the injury, you’re not going to be playing at a high level. Until you can do that, he’s still not cleared in my opinion.”

Rose has made clear he could sit out the entire season after undergoing knee surgery last May, and a major issue he’s dealt with is being fully confident mentally. In Brewer’s mind, the mental facet is just critical as the physical one – no matter if Rose wants to return in a limited part or his old superstar role.

“I think it’s as important mental as it is physical,” Brewer said. “[The injury] happened on a freak play: Him coming down the lane, doing the play he’s done a thousand times. Whenever he’s comfortable doing the things he was used to doing, that’s when he’ll jump out there.”

As far as when Rose will return, Brewer doesn’t think anyone around the Bulls knows, but he was adamant it should come when only his former teammate is ready.

“I don’t think anybody really knows,” Brewer said. “I don’t think the doctors know. I don’t think any of the players know. Whatever it is, I don’t think he should rush back and not be confident to play, because if you’re not playing with confidence then everything goes out the window.”
Thought this was interesting.

Re: ''Danny Ainge needs to shut the fuck up and manage his own team.''

In response to LeBron, Wade and Chalmers sitting out today's game against the Spurs...

Popovich pretended to be stunned by the news.

"What kind of shit is that?" the Spurs coach said after stepping a few feet backward in mock astonishment. "Are you kidding me? Who would think of something like that? That's below the belt. There's no place for that."
Stern better fine them or he'll look like the Heat loving corrupt son of a bitch that he really is.

Re: ''Danny Ainge needs to shut the fuck up and manage his own team.''

Do ppl even care if he returns at this point. Would he even make them better at all, he'd be coming off the bench and even then wont be even close to how good he can be.

Should have just sat out the season and start his whole "Return" campain in the offseason.

Re: ''Danny Ainge needs to shut the fuck up and manage his own team.''

I don't think the Heat will be fined. For one they made the trip, unlike before when the Spurs players didn't even make the trip. Also Bosh is playing, so they didn't rest all their stars.

On a related note this is looking like the first game when the short handed team plays above expectations and makes it a close game. Still expect the Spurs to win though.
