2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Gman]

Complete crap, lol.

I'm fine agreeing to disagree on this point.

You got bias and I got bias... other folks can decide the matter for themselves.

 

[dtgold88]

Translation

"You won't agree with me" !

This has to be up there for post of the year if you truly think tweeting a pick a few minutes before it is made is the same as telling a reporter about actual trade talks that may or may not be made.....and they are not made the vast majority of the time.

What's funny is when these deals are not made the GMs of the teams sit the players down and say exactly what I am to the players.

 

[shopson67]

Suns reportedly interested in getting into the Lakers/Pelicans deal to get Lonzo, so.....why not play with the trade machine at work?

NBA Trade Machine - ESPN

plus the requisite draft picks, of course...

 

[dtgold88]

He's one of those people who can't tell the difference between someone laughing " at him " and " laughing with him".....lol

What a fucking stooge.

And you are one of those people who gets her comments refuted constantly and replies with deflection.

Deflect away.

But tell me again how reporting on a draftee a minute before he's picked is the same as reporting a deal that wont be made...that is priceless.

 

[Mecca]

The fact you are an adult with such poor reading comprehension has me concerned. Wish it was funny.

Poor comprehension = I'm Willy, Willy mad you won't agree with me".

Go blow your nose and stop crying.

You are so clearly wrong.

Yet, you keep digging that hole.

You are gonna need a backhoe to free yourself at this rate.

 

[dtgold88]

Shooting wise...It's KD and Steph.

But, when you add in everything else, defense, rebounding, passing, etc. I'd go with Lebron-AD.

But the margin is very narrow, so it could go either way.

Personally, I wouldn't complain about either pairing on my team. lol

Just how I see it, so depends what is around them. Any shooters on the team and Lebron/AD is an easy choice I'd say

 

[dtgold88]

I know of noone that knocks Woj.



Until now.

Not really knocking him, as I do like him. Just pointing out the rumors with unnamed sources on trades almost never come to fruition. You disagree?

lol

Even worse, it's " believe me, don't believe, literally, the 2 most respected reporters out there".

I mean, if this were literally just about anyone else...sure. But Woj and Shams?

did Woj and Shams have the Porzingis, Kyrie, PG, CP or Cavs' deadline deals before they went down?

 

[Mecca]

His dad and agents know more than AD himself? Never mind they say this without Danny Ainge having the chance to meet with him and explain his side if it really is an issue.

Lmfao

Are you on medication?

No, I'm being serious.

He already got fined.

You think he's going to come out and say Lakers or bust?

You can't be naive enough to believe his father and agent are speaking for him.

i totally agree.

As long as LeBron as what he is currently (injuries non-withstanding) him and AD make the best combo in the league bar-none.


I mean- a big difference is the Warriors have Klay, Dray, Iggy-

With Solomon Hill coming back and giving up those draft picks the Lakers would be down to, mostly, vet min. guys to add to the team in coming years--- but i would imagine any vet min guys would make them the priority.

LeBron and Davis will both have huge contracts as well- not just your garden variety "max contracts".

I would imagine that LeBorn/Davis/Hill would take up about 80-85M in cap space between the 3 of them. Much more once DAvis hits his extension.

Yes, I'd expect they do. The job of his agents is to know what he wants and do everything they can to make sure he gets it.

It would be kind of hard for them to make sure he gets what he wants if they don't know what that is.

I mean, Lebron has never said that he wants to move on from Luke as coach. But his "people" are saying that's what he wants. Do you really think they're just out there saying that without Lebron's blessing.

So, do you think Woj and Shams have insider info or are they just guessing?

 

[dtgold88]

I was never in love with the Cousins/Davis duo.

They kinda occupy the same space.

But, I guess it comes down to...

Is a Cousins and Holiday = To LeBron?

I don't think they are.

It doesn't come down just to that and I don't disagree. But didn't NO still have Rondo and Mirotic last year, too?

 

[trojanfan12]

True, but you could say the same about adding defense and rebounding to KD-Steph.

deflection = "I cannot refute what you said"

Make it your default.

 

[dtgold88]

Is anyone denying he would know about a near finalized deal that was agreed upon by the teams? when a deal is done, teams will share the info.

Are you this slow in real life?

 

[Mecca]

It doesn't come down just to that and I don't disagree. But didn't NO still have Rondo and Mirotic last year, too?

Yeah, and both were balling.

If it were just about any other player, sans LeBron, my answer might be different.

But, he's the best player in the NBA.

So, it kinda skews things in his favor.

 

[dtgold88]

True, but you could say the same about adding defense and rebounding to KD-Steph.

Agreed...though not like KD is a slouch on D. Curry another story.
