2010-2011 NBA Season and Playoffs Thread

Memphis Grizzlies:

Marc Gasol- once the other Gasol brother, overweight and out of shape, and pretty much the "other thing" in his brother's trade to LA
Zach Randolph- formerly of the Jailblazers, shipped to NY, then to LAC, and then..to..Memphis, where he's an all-star and PLAYOFF LEADER WTF?
Sam Young- second rounder out of Pittsburgh, probably was meant to be a 10th or 11th man, but Gay is hurt and Xavier Henry disappeared
Tony Allen- at least Boston has Delonte West. Right?
Mike Conley- took awhile for him to come around, then the Grizz got slaughtered after handing him a big extension, yet he's been steady. Steadier than Parker and Westbrook so far
Shane Battier- the fact he's still playing and he had a monstrous dunk the other night and that he still D's it up, it's amazing all-around
Darrell Arthur- dropped like bricks in the draft due to something with his kidneys right? Or liver. Maybe colon, perhaps his testicles. Who the Hell knows.
OJ Mayo- sucks at cards, got his ass beat by Tony Allen, and is now a crunch time 3 point shooter in the playoffs

id love to see memphis and miami... they got the defenders to be respectable vs bron and wade, and zbo and gasol will outright ABUSE the miami big men.

yea thats my favorite part. a team led by zach randolph and tony allen are title contenders. when zbo was a knick, id have never seen it coming... but he lost 20 pounds and somehow someway became somewhat committed to defense. maybe lionel hollins should get some credit for that i suppose.

if youre a chicago fan, its gotta be nice to see the corpse of carlos boozer showing up.

josh smith affecting every possession on both ends the last 5 or 6 times down the court... not sure if thats good for atlanta or not.

Yeah.. I remember Randolph as a Jailblazer. What a joke.

so how many 11-30 shooting games (or thereabouts) does rose need to have before they stop anointing him the greatest human ever. hes has to force alot of plays to make things happen on a team thats mostly comatose on offense, and gets to the line like a fiend... but hes still a mediocre outside shooter, thats at his best when he keeps the ball and forces shots up at the rack.

and yes, atlanta is still running their offense through josh smith. somehow, its paying dividends right now.

and its 2-2 headed back to chicago

I actually thought Marc was the wild card in the trade, knowing that Kwame Brown was included just to match salaries and Crittenton wasn't going to be an integral part of the Grizzlies with Conley there.

The Zombie vs. Randolph. What exactly do you call something that's a corpse getting slaughtered again? A Chris Bosh? This could be amazing.

But I don't think anyone saw his fairly impressive weigh loss and becoming even more in shape coming, so soon. It happened in like one off season or something. Now he has a legit chance at being really good as opposed to decent. Nothing else, he's a great compliment to Randolph. If Eddy Curry could do that...

It would take 6 off seasons but still.

Oh, no question about that. I was just implying he was oft-overlooked in the trade even considering he was traded for his brother.

enjoy

Maybe I should rag on Josh Smith more? Will it work on Westbrook too?

Russell Westbrook, you piece of shit. You play like fuckin' over the hill Kenny Anderson. GET THE FUCK OUT OF OK CITY BITCH

Go play with Darren Collison or Jordan Farmar, asshole. Kevin Ollie would be better for the team.
