How the hell did they miss making THAT!

[jays_fever]

Masai really needs to send Novak packing..its the only way Casey will stop playing him

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Great quarter. DeRozan playing well, Hansborough showing his worth.

 

Man, just f***ing play Hansborough. He's a good ballplayer. Gives us toughness and rebounding. Chuck Hayes should NEVER play when Amir gets back.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Val 0 points, 12 boards. lol

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Ballgame.

[Caper]

Novak... 3pt specialist... 1 for 8

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Outstanding 2nd half. Great effort. Wow.

[Caper]

I never even heard of Austin Daye.

[jays_fever]

Novak... 3pt specialist... 1 for 8

 

Even when he makes shots..hes stll so useless and hurts the team in every other aspect. The team is playing 4v5 since he just stands there and takes half the shot clock to simply reverse the ball when hes covered

[eastcoastjaysfan]

A trio of Amir, 2Pat, and a streaking Hansborough at the 4 spot can do some damage down the stretch. They just need JV to up his rebounding game and they'll be a threat.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Weird stat of the night.

 

Salmons scores zero points but was +22 lol.

 

Probably just a fluke but he was playing some nice defense out there.

 

This team is starting to do all of the little things right. This team crumbles in years past in these types of games.

[SpeedyGose]

not loving casey's obsession with Novak. If he comes in and misses his first 2 or 3 shots, pull the cord man

[SpeedyGose]

Lol Val's shooting tonight was brutal. Had some really nice looks, just wasn't falling. Defense and rebounding was pretty good tonight though.

 

Gotta win ugly sometimes, 28-24 at the break, only 6 games against the top 12 teams in the league from here on out, 5 of which are at home. 3 spot is ours to lose

He should never be in the game to begin with

They have absolutely no chance of beating Indiana or Miami in the 2nd round if they don't have home court. The Raps should be going balls to the wall to get a 2nd seed (it'll be nearly impossible, 9.5 back of Miami... but we have a super soft schedule... never know).

Realistically will need at least 55 wins. 24-3 the rest of the way is possible right? Right....!?!?

They have no chance of beating them even with home court. This is not the MLB playoffs.

They could push it to a 6 game series but I agree.

Just when I thought the slam dunk contest couldn't get any more worse.

That was the lamest thing Ive ever seen during all star weekend..and that includes that dunk contest 5 years or so back when every dunker missed their first 10 attempts.

[Fearthedoc]

I waited through 3 hours of mostly commercials and filler garbage for 5 minutes of dunking. It was terrible. Whoever thought of that new format should be fired.

Is there anyone that actually still enjoys it? Time to scrap it, just makes the nba look bad

Having a raptor in the last 4 years has kept my interest to a certain degree but it's reached the point where id rather watch paint dry than watch it. I've still haven't gotten over the fact that they rigged it for Blake Griffin 2 years ago just to promote their KIA sponsor but watching a grand total of 6 dunks, 3 of which absolutely sucked and made no sense since they only had 1 dunk to worry about.

 

Im also thinking of starting up a petition to get Shaq off the air permanently

[GD]

The dunks have been getting better again the past few years. It's just that everything else sucks.

[letsgobjs]

Not only did the dunks suck, but the whole presentation had so many awkward moments. Ernie Johnson even mentioned the "slam dunker" of the night before it was supposed to be announced.

[theblujay]

I can't get over had bad it was. Just awful

[SpeedyGose]

That was the worst f***ing set up to the dunk competition. Oh my god...they finally had some nice talent in the competition and completely ruined it with a horrendous set up. That Freestyle round, man.

Awful show but...................Wall dunk!!

The freestyle round was the best part, it was limiting the dunkers to 1 dunk that sucked. Would have loved to see the West actually put thought into their dunks and not just jump over a chair.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Big game tonight vs Washington.

 

Go get it!
