I still can't get that worked up about the season itself though, and media day is 2 weeks away. Traveling will be fun again though. I may hit up Oracle before the year's out

They need to go ahead & quit bullshytting about how tall KD is. Everything list him at 6'9 then you see him standing next to dudes who are supposed to be taller. I don't know why they try & keep the lie out there.

at some o those 2K ratings though. They clearly jacked up some players ratings i places just to get them to as high an ovarall as posssible.

Seems like all the rooks got ratings too high.

I'm saying everybody can see he's taller than 6'9 when he stands next to other players listed taller than him. Yet they list him as 6'9 on websites & stuff. It's like they don't want to call him a 6'11 wing player for some reason.

Seems like all the rooks got ratings too high.

Yeah for what is supposed to be a weak draft there all rated high. Unless the defensive ratings mean more this year how is Noel a 72? Players like Harden, Curry, & George are overrated too. Harden & Curry probably have inflated defensive ratings or their consistency & awareness ratings are high as shyt. George probablys inflated offensive ratings with his consistency & awareness ratings high too.

Rasheed Working With Josh Smith On Post Moves, Veteran Leadership
Sep 18, 2013 10:40 AM EDT

Rasheed Wallace has been helping Josh Smith was his transition to the Detroit area, while also working on improving his game.

“Rasheed has been teaching me some things that I need to know on the block; some veteran leadership from him," said Smith. "He has been able to show me some things. It’s always beneficial when you have a veteran guy who has played in the NBA and been successful and now they’re coaches. They can see things from a player’s and a coach’s standpoint.’’

“You don’t want him doing things he’s not used to doing,’’ Wallace said. “We’re trying to get him comfortable making the 15- to 18-foot jump shot.’’

Can't wait to enjoy the fukkery of this hyperathletic, out-of-position playing, bricks galore shooting squad.

i was gonna jump in on some solid lake show hating, but thats the same team who acquired pau to put them over the top, orchestrated a trade for chris paul, and trade for dwight (mind you, with a completely different package than the paul trade)

i hope they get to eat a nice decade of lottery teams once kobe leaves
