Yeah, that's awful. It would definitely be the worst name in pro sports.

In Minnesota ball shoot you :D

We finally had one of those games that could not be lost. Luck, mojo, bukkake, whatever you want to call it was on our side the entire game. 52% from 3. We shot 74% field goals in the second quarter. Shit was sinking all night no matter who shot it. Okay, take that back. Love actually sucked. Everyone else was great though

It was the kind of game that should never happen, and if you're a team facing that kind of hot shooting, all you can do is throw up your hands and say, "It's not our ****ing night"

I can't wait to see what we can do with Alexey Shved and Ricky Rubio on the court at the same time.

Steve Nash better come back soon or else we'll be screaming for Phil Jackson again.

Other than the Spurs, there's no really great team this season. The Lakers, Heat, Celtics, and Thunder aren't playing championship ball so far.

The Grizzlies and Thunder are playing pretty good right now

OKC has won 14 out of 16, and is the first team in 15 years to score 100 in 10 straight games. Not only that their margin of victory has been large. Westbrook and Durant have improved their passing massively. It's the best the team has ever moved the ball.

Memphis because of their size is going to be a mother ****er for anyone. People are not giving them near enough credit.

The Lakers aren't playing good. Kobe taking 31 shots just isn't a good thing. I really think Phil Jackson is the only person who could handle that roster. Not sure that a 38 year old point guard with his recent injury history will make that much of a difference. There is a long way to go and they can turn it around, but I just don't like the competitiveness of that team with the exception of Kobe, Nash and MWP.

Miami is just coasting. They will be fine.

To me the best teams are the Spurs, Thunder, Grizz and Heat. The Celtics and Lakers could be tough come playoff time though. We'll see.

I

Forgot to mention the Clips. They could be in there as well.

The Spurs will be good until they lose to a 6, 7, or 8 seed in the playoffs yet again

Nobody I've ever seen plays Championship ball in December :) They are kind of wasting their energy if they are. Make the playoffs and save it til April.

ROFL It happened one year.

I didn't mean exactly championship ball, but there aren't any teams that have set themselves apart other than the Spurs IMO.

?

Grizzlies have been the best team in the league thus far. They lost to the Spurs, on the road, on a back to back when the Spurs had 4 days rest. Not to mention the shot clock snafu and no foul call by the refs in OT that sealed the game for the Spurs.

That said, okc is right on with the best teams so far. And barring injury, we know who will be there in the end. Although, the Lakers are starting to make me wonder....

I 100% agree on the Grizzlies. That game seemed to be a wake up call for OKC so it will be interesting to see what happens when they meet again.

I know what you meant, just busting balls. OKC and Memphis pretty much have the same record as SA though.

Agreed. I would throw in the Nets and Clippers as one of the best teams. I could see them both in the Conference Finals this year.

True, the Nets are pretty good. Still think when the playoffs come around the Heat are going to take the East again. Whereas, the West could be won by 4 possibly 5 teams.
