2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

[DJ Fieri]

According to the team.

I have suffered from migraines for 3 decades.

Nothing but sleep, silence and a dark ass room will lesson the symptoms.

Sitting in a loud ass arena is the complete antithesis of how to relieve the pain.

Add in the fact that the guy has a bad a few concussions?

Midget Isiah had been there about 5 fucking seconds and played like twice fried dog shit.

Who is he to question someone's medical history?

Boom.

Especially, he was playing despite not being 100% and it showed, despite a few good games.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Leader of what?

The contract hunting committee?

He fucked up, should have signed with Klutch...lol

Oh, I agree.....morning sunshine.

Heading to breakfast soon.

 

[DJ Fieri]

What's he contract most think IT will get? Settle for 10-12 million per, maybe 2-3 years?

 

[Gman]

Just a reminder somebody was calling IT a leader in the locker room that turned into a total dumpster fire.

Yeah... and you say he's not a leader yet somehow has the ability to influence everyone else into turning against Love and each other?

Can't have it both ways, DJ.

Can't have it both ways, DJ.

The fact he called out Love and not Rose....leads me to believe he's a racist fucknut.

Did I just read that Lonzo Ball has released a rap album and is touring in LITHUANIAN in June?

Lmfao!!!!!!!!!

How bout you get your ass on the court and play basketball?



you’re hoping to catch Lonzo Ball’s first full-fledged hip-hop concert in Lithuania, you’d better head to Eastern Europe early this summer. In a video posted by Project Mayhem, a troop of Lithuanian pull-up acrobats, LaVar Ball and Big Baller Brand business partner Alan Foster let slip that the Los Angeles Lakers rookie is slated to hit the stage in June.

You don't think he overstepped a bit?

I'm not going the DJ racist route.

But, I think he targeted Love because he's a easy win.

He doesn't look like the type of guy to fight back.

What is his injury? Dude been out just about a month with what?

 

[trojanfan12]

So IT wasn't a cancer, that's why he was traded?

He wasn't a team a team leader either. He never fit in.

Now, James was and is the team leader.

It was just a bad fit in Cleveland. IT was stunned by the trade, tried to make the change to a team whose style he doesn't fit and tried to be the leader that he was with the Celtics.

I agree that he cost himself some money and that he didn't have the "time" in with the Cavs to be trying to lead...but I also can't blame a guy for saying that shit stinks when it does.

We were all speculating that the Cavs locker room was toxic before IT came back. He just pointed out.

This is a stretch....

I get migraines, too... I know what they are.

Again, the fact that the team seemed to go against Love speaks loudly. If IT has no respect and sucks and all that... hard to explain how this Love thing got any traction.

• Regarding Isaiah's play... arguably, Cleveland used his talents badly. We'll see how Isaiah continues to play with the Lakers for more on this front.
• Regarding any official statement that Cleveland makes... well, of course.

The meeting took place after the OKC game. Why would he bring up Rose in that meeting when they were addressing wtf just took place in the OKC game where they allowed 148 points?

Not saying he should have brought it up then, but he never brought it up and IT was there when Rose took his LOA.

Yeah I agree. Sometimes you just have to know when to lay low. It's like when you find a new job, you're not going to be speaking your mind about the place when still on probation lol. But IT seems happier now so maybe Cleveland and that locker room was just a bad fit for him. Wish him all the best now

 

[DJ Fieri]

Nobody ever questioned Rose.....

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

To be clear... I was referring to the behind the scenes, locker room stuff there.

IT seems to be taking the lion's share of the blame... I just don't think that is right.

IT had earned a great reputation going in to Cleveland. Now he's a cancer?... nah.

Yeah, I agree.

It's not all on him.

He is getting singled out because he overstepped, it got out, and his play has been shitacular.

I blame the Gm, Owner who gave Kyrie away, LeBron, Lue's inability to control the egos in the locker room and Thomas in that order.

 

[Gman]

You don't think he overstepped a bit?

I wouldn't say that, necessarily... I would say that IT's frustrations probably went well beyond Love... and included the fact that the Cleveland Cav's (as a whole) put forward uneven effort during the regular season and, furthermore, leadership there doesn't seem particularly concerned with that state of affairs.

 

[DJ Fieri]

But, I think he targeted Love because he's a easy win.

He doesn't look like the type of guy to fight back.

I can agree with that.....He definitely over stepped for somebody that hasn't been there as long as Love.

If I'm Love, I'm feeling vindicated I'm still there and McNugget is gone.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Nobody ever questioned Rose.....

Probably because he's one step away from being suicidal and he was never expected to help carry the team.

They expected Thomas to fill Kyrie's shoes, or at least Love's.

Kevin was supposed to be the #2.

He did as well as could be expected considering he is woefully misplaced at the 5.

He's not Anthony Fucking Davis.

Dude is a easy target.

 

[bksballer89]

Nobody ever questioned Rose.....

You know this how? Not every conversation players have with each other is made public to the media.

What took place in that team meeting was supposed to remain private as well but there was a snitch
