2011/2012 NBA Thread : A Season Reborn - Part 1

I dont like to make comparisons,but the game he resembles is alot like Tony Parker with a 3 point shot and some Nash passing...His game can translate well and if he plays like this throughout you can never tell how far this team can go.

If JR Smith can play into this system, Melo can master it...There were so many times this team looked bad without Lin on the floor...Melo can help that

When D'antoni took Lin out in the 2nd Quarter, Knicks' offense became stagnate. I think Lin really does make a difference with this team.

I agree that the context wasn't racist, but at the same time you have to pay close attention to how you word these things so it doesn't come off as that. The headline thing shouldn't have happened and should not have even been put on the site. How do so many people miss that?

With Bretos, I don't think he should have been suspended because the context of what he was saying it in was obvious.

It's just so reactionary. Everytime something happens that is controversial all these people come out of the word work trying to get everyone fired. In this case, I have to believe it was a simple lack of judgment and should be treated as such. People need to put the pitchforks and torches away and let things be.

Bretos's wife is also asian...ESPN just trying to save face...They are bad at this though. Editor should have gotten the boot, but Bretos with a 30 day suspension?

Come on

I think someone should've gotten punished, but not Bretos; wasn't he just reading the TelePrompTer?

I know. Whose going to take over soccer coverage now?

 

[Darthphere]

Also, the headline writer shouldn't have gotten fired IMO. He (assuming the writer is male) made one mistake. Honestly, suspend his ass too and send him to some sensitivity courses.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: MJ needs to fire himself as GM and hire a real one. Bobcats are pathetic.

I just look at the highlights, watch them when they on national tv. And we are getting alot of them real soon.

It would be blacked out because I'm in the home market.

I have been, but a little sports ticker doesn't compare to live action.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

I'm going to the game next friday night when they play the warriors. They honoring Wilt Chaimberlian aswell for scoring 100 pts and every fan that comes to the game gets a small piece of the real court he put up 100 on.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

And the Sixers lose another game...3 straight now.
