Pitino “slammed” the NBA slightly: “Look at the results…”

Totally against his new… era NBA is the Rick Pitino.

The experienced coach it’s not a fan at all of the very high scores that the games in the “magical world” have, because they remind him more… All Star Game than normal period, with the almost… non-existent team defenses.

“I was at a meeting with David Stern and if I remember correctly, Hubby Brown, Larry Brown, Chuck Daly and Pat Riley were also there. The topic of discussion was how we will see more scoring in the NBA. Back then there were one or two teams that put up more than 100 points in every game. Check out last night’s All Star game scores“, his former coach said on Twitter Panathinaikou AKTOR.

For the record, the scores that caused Pitino’s outburst:

Pacers-Bucks 142-130

Cavaliers-Wizards 140-101

Hawks-Thunder 141-138

Timberwolves-Pelicans 106-117

Grizzlies-Raptors 111-116

Rockets-Nets 112-101

Mavericks-Blazers 126-97

Knicks-Bulls 116-100

Jazz-Pistons 154-148 (par.)

Sans-Clippers 122-131

Kings-Magic 138-135 (second par.)

Lakers-Heat 96-110

Let me see-I was in a meeting called by David Stern. If my memory serves me, there was Hubie, Larry Brown, Chuck Daly n Pat Riley. Subject matter: How do we get more scoring in the NBA. There was only one or two teams breaking 100 points at the time. Check out the All Star game…
