ALL NBA unathletic team

Here is a fun game. Make a five player list for each of the 4 subjects: 1. All NBA unathletic team 2. One dimensional players that only do one or two things at a NBA level. 3. NBA players most likely to be confused for guys playing in a YMCA pickup game. 4. NBA players that wouldn't crack a 10 man rotation of a contending team. Turns out one list can be used for all of them... Steve Blake, Jason Kapono, Luke Walton, Josh Mcroberts and Troy Murphy. Other wise known as the laker bench. haha. How amazing is that.

It is well known around here that I am not a fan of McBob

But last time I checked he Is an amazing athlete

Luke Walton is a heck of a well rounded player

I would live to have Lil’ Bill on our squad
On a different contract than what he has now

Luke Walton is a good passer. Or at least that is how Phil Jackson justified his spot on the roster

If he was a “Heck of a well rounded player” I’ve never seen it and I’ve watched him play since his wildcat days. He also would of got minutes over barnes last year, who’s not any kind of well rounded player.

No one in the world can beat me at RBI baseball 3(nes).

My appologies

I thought he had a back injury last year and thats why Barnes&Noble was playing

yup

McBob is a good athlete for his size, no doubt

This could also apply to the 90’s jazz that went to the finals vs Jordan.

i like it here, there, everywhere.

I don't see Babbit here?

"Per John Hollingers twitter - Over the final 12:45 of today's game, Brandon Roy's PER was 84.98" GM 4 vs Mavs

by blazinagain on Dec 17, 2011 11:58 PM PST reply actions  

HEY NOW!!!

Babs made 3 of them last year, and it only took him 16 attempts to do it! Although, I am betting he wants to forget about his 1.0 PER on the season. On the bright side, he has nowhere to go but up!

Good call out. My bad.

The only Babbitt highlight of remember was the lob pass to LA against the Bucks. I’m guessing at least one of those 3s came at the last warrior game in a scrub shoot out

Never said they weren't, that's why I said most unathletic. Nba player.

Big difference. You could put CP3, Lebron, Wade and Rose in a room and one of then would be the most unathletic guy in the room. It’s actually a pretty simple concept. besides man, this parwhole post was a funny way to point out how terrible the laker bench is.

JJ Barea needs to be on the "NBA players most likely to be confused for guys playing in a YMCA pickup game"

He’d make a lot of cash by duping people into thinking they could easily post him up and shoot over him. Kinda like Woddy Harrelson in “White Men Can’t Jump”. Same probably for Earl Boykins.

by Norsktroll on Dec 18, 2011 12:41 AM PST reply actions  

A couple of years ago

I can remember people bashing on JJ as being no good—complete with poking fun at him with short jokes, etc.

When I hear what is currently being said about certain Blazers, I get aggravated. Demographic evaluations: YES. Basketball evaluations: NO!

JJ had an amazing year going that was capped by joining the cast of Point guards and power forwards in minnesota.

I would pick Brandon Jennings

For guy most likely to be confused for a YMCA pickup player

Zach

stands, catches, shoots, and rebounds all from the exact same spot – year after year after year.

by oregonslee on Dec 18, 2011 6:33 PM PST up reply actions  

And yet the ball always seems to end up in that spot

to the tune of 20 and 10.

Maybe there’s more to the black hole analogy than we thought.

by moflow on Dec 19, 2011 8:42 AM PST up reply actions  

So the whole NBA unathletic team is white?

Are you saying I wont be in the NBA one day after all??
