NBA Game Action: 1/23/2016

Lue's first game as a HC should be interesting to see

 

So no utah washington and no philly boston tomorrow. At least the bulls cavs will be as usual.

 

Good stuff early from Lin. Nice energy and aggressiveness

 

First ABC game on a Saturday Night. I like it.

 

Carmelo stay hatin' on Jerry.

So when the Rox fired mchale everyone was in this uproar & were bashing the players and organization

Cavs fire Blatt now everyone is saying he lost the lockeroom blah blah blah

Same things that was happening with mchale its like a double standard to everyone if the Rox do it

 

Lin having a nice game against the Knicks

Love me some JVG rants. Selfishly, I hope you stay in the booth.

When you win, everyone runs to get the credit
When you struggle, they run away from the blame.
Easy to pin the blame on the coach.

Nothing is more predictable than after a coach is fired, soon after, sports writers who are trying to gain favor with those people and gain more access and more information, they attack immediately that coach's character and competence. It happened to you in GS. It helps them in their job to gain favor with those people they want info from. It's that simple. Sports writing has never had less...it's never been this low.

You can tell always tell a hit piece by two things: is it one sided & is it unsourced?

The idea you can run a guy down with unsourced material? The guy can't even defend himself. There's no one to ask the question.

 

I love JVG; most honest commentator I have ever heard. Loved the thing he said to Dallas about hardy and Deandre jordan

 

Honestly, seeing Lin draw fouls like this is impressive. Very reminiscent of his 1st year as a Rocket.

Same goes for the 5 TOs, haha

 

Hornets won while shooting 34% from the floor? Seems... unusual.

 

Breen: Cavs fans are booing.
JVG: The Cavs fans have to get more connected to their team.

Zing! :grin:

 

Grizzlies always squeak out wins against bad teams wtf. On the verge of coming back from 16 down to the wolves.

 

The mysterious "Jeremy Lin" effect.

 

Not blats fault tonight

 

grizzlies finally lose a close game for once.

 

Story of the Night:

When did Jeremy Lin change his hair style ?

 

I'm not watching but LOL at what looks like a blowout loss. I had hopes the Bulls would lose again..but guess I will suffice to laugh at Klutch and Lebron. That's not how a team who supposedly hated their coach responds.
Maybe they will fire now Lue and hire Jackson.
