I guess Billups and his fat ass wasn't the reason for our slow tempo and lack of scoring in Detroit. They seem to put up 100 at will out there. D. Jones was playing some pretty good D on CP3 when I was watching. It was sort of an eye opener for me just seeing the raw energy from the Nuggs. It was like watching the zoo crew with Rodman added in.
Yep looks like he chose to hang with the wrong teammates....should have stayed with CB instead of Rip, Tay and Sheed. He would have more money to feed his kids and more playoff money to spend if they make it to the semi finals or WCF finals. Joe must have told him that I will take care of you next year if you come back....Joe had everybody fooled..including himself.
In two games, Billups has scored 67 points, made 12-of-15 3-pointers and sunk all 19 of his free throws while getting a dozen assists and not committing any turnovers,,,,,,
Yet another incomprehensible commment from Karl on CB's skills. "I do want to kind of apologize. I said he's a player without skills'' after the series opener, Nuggets coach George Karl said. "He's very skilled. But he plays the game without skills a lot. He plays the game with a brain, and a teamness, a point guard leadership. Then he figures out when to put the skills in the game. "I'm happy he's putting a few more skills on the court lately. It's pretty cool.''
The only way this works out bad for Joe is if the Pistons flop, like they did. Now, Jow doesn't have to worry about "taking care of Dyess" next year cause Dyess's conscious will tell him it's time to leave.
There's an old survey done about a year ago which asked us who we would trade...Amir or Chauncey. Chauncey gets about 63% of the trade vote. What were we thinkin..........
Are you talking about this one? http://www.pistonsforum.com/detroit-pistons-general-discussion/poll-194-pick-em-public.html We know how Joe voted.
It a took a trade to re-motivate CB. Whatever works I guess. It is only the 1st 2 games - we have seen playoff runs before.
New Orleans could win both at home very easily. The Nuggets looked like they were getting a lot of energy from their crowd. If Billups had an average game, it would have been competitive.
GK has a weird demeanor. The producer should quite telling the camera men to show him 50 times per game. His emotions don't seem to correspond with the events on the court.
It;'s very strange, and extremely annoying. I don't need to see a "reaction" from him to every play the Nuggets make.
Where did State8 get the sack to make such a crazy poll? I voted move Chaunc, say what !! Karls' mind must be in a state of consternation having never seen his team play so well. CB has no skills, CB doesn't use his skills, say what ? - CB may be in trouble later if he thinks he can carry that team all the way. He needs to get much more from Nene and KMart to hang with the Kobes. Should be a clash of Titans. Ohhh, the bigger they come the harder they fall.
You know how Chauncey barely dunks right? Look at about 45 seconds in this video and he has a crazy dunk in HS. I wonder why half these guys don't dunk in the NBA when they obviously can easily get up that high. YouTube - YOUNG BILLUPS
Any player over 6ft can dunk in the NBA, any black guy over 6ft I should say, but why would you when Guys like Lebron, Kobe etc can jump 2 feet higher than you. You get an extra point for a three anyway.
