Distortedreasoning Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 i really dont pay too much attention to most the offseason in any sport. just the draft and sometimes a little bit in free agency. this summer was probably the biggest in history. but we alreadt went over most the big moves. clips get a super team. okc moves away from westbrook. warriors get russell which should be good. rockets get westbrook which could fail spectacularly or be the most scary offensive team. utah get conley. which i think is huge. blazers get whiteside, i think its good too. did the spurs get anyone? it doesnt matter. i dont think the nuggets added much either. theres just not much to talk about right now other than shit on the lakers.

NaBarney Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 Yeah this off-season was a crazy blur. Still can't believe Russ is in Houston now. I spent like ten minutes the other day trying to remember what team Jimmy Butler is on now after leaving Philadelphia. It's the Miami Heat. Quote

Seight Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 I think someone on The Ringer was pointing out when LeBron James said Adam Silver was the best commissioner in sports. Which is probably still true after the NBA's first statement on China, but remember his competition is Goodell, Manfred, and Bettman. Quote

Hidden Posted October 18, 2019 Author Posted October 18, 2019 damn i did not expect to see disstracks when i came back to this thread lol. i dont know why lebron even said anything..not because he should or shouldnt have given his opinion, but why do you want your name constantly in peoples mouths?...idk thats just me. i dont want unnecessary attention. anyway its almost our time again boys... October 22nd. 1 Quote
Distortedreasoning Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 i kinda liked the diss tracks. i thought shaq was entertaining but dame won imo. eh lebron is the face of the nba and is always getting talked about whether he likes it or not. he has been doing a lot of business with china over the years as well. same with a lot of stars. i think richard mentioned that china probably would have not cared as much if the US didnt try to antogonize them so much recently. but here we are, i think both parties will try to work something out. and yes we are getting close! 1 Quote

I just caught the end of Toronto barely beating the Pelicans. VanVleet went off The clippers looked really good, Lakers could do nothing against their defense. Kawhi was like a perfect basketball android. Danny Green hit 7 threes, only reason the Lakers hung around. I think they said AD and LeBron combined for 2 points in the 4th. Basically everyone from Toronto's championship team had a great night. 2 Quote
Hidden Posted October 24, 2019 Author Posted October 24, 2019 yup. everything nabraniel said. everyone expected the lakers, too...both teams were missing players (lakers missed rondo/kuzma, clippers, PG13, and the "others," as the inside nba desk likes to call them), but id like to think the loss of PG13 was greater than what the lakers were lacking, so i was supervised with the outcome. but yes..kawhi continues to beast. i just want to see him play all the time. anyone have thoughts on lebron? does it seem like hes getting old? 1 Quote

NaBarney Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Saw a graphic for that game and they did that thing where they put the star player from each team in it and for the Celtics it was Gordon Hayward. Hard to believe that's all they have left Quote

I think Lebron is gettin old but he's still gonna be effective because he's such a smart player, it could be he needs to knock off some rust from missing a large portion of the season last year, too. 2 Quote

Because this seems bad. I caught the whole first quarter of that game, GSW looked horrible. When the reserves came out I literally didn't know who any of the Warriors were besides Steph. There's like guys named Spellman and shit. Couldn't hit their 3's, Curry had an airball.. I checked back later in the 2nd and OKC was up 21 Edited October 27, 2019 by NaBones 1 Quote

Hidden Posted December 20, 2019 Author Posted December 20, 2019 what a good game. this was admittedly only the second laker game ive watched this season. very entertaining on both sides. AD is a monster and giannis with a consistent jumper is something i wanna see. cant sleep on danny green either..made so many nice 3s in the first half..he should save the lakers plenty of games. but so should AD, apparently.
