2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

Kudos to LeBron for fucking things up in Los Angeles. Hope he keeps up the good work.

That shit sandwich has many chefs.

Some is on them, like roster construction and Rich Paul, some isn't like injuries. It's a shitty year but also a year they never ever ever thought they would win a title. So, they were right about that

How many more pages do we need to discuss it?

 

[dtgold88]

Yes, I did say they must not be playing GOOD defense if the offensive player is getting a lot of shots up. Emphasis on the word good. That's common sense, clearly something you're lacking.

I'm done debating this with you. you can deflect all you want. It doesn't change that what you've said is in print on this board, which i've actually provided for you in multiple posts.

Sad as you not owning up to this ridiculous comment was comic relief. I hope I can make you dance a little longer.

 

[dtgold88]

If you're drafting #1, you have to take the best talent available. I've already stated my opinion of the Waiters pick. Porter would've been vastly better than Bennett too, though.

I might have been a better choice than Bennett.

 

[dtgold88]

Yeah, Bennett at 1 might be one of the worst #1 picks overall all time. Lillard at 6 in any draft is a steal.

It's in the discussion for sure. Olowakandi, Kwame Brown and maybe Fultz are the others off the top of my head.

How many more pages? Oh I'd say at least a dozen.

I'll take the over

Pretty sure I said that first. And if not I'm taking credit for it anyway.

At least Kwame stuck in the league for a while as a semi-useful big.

True, and still a little early to write off Fultz.

 

[trojanfan12]

No interest in Lue/Jackson/Kidd. Lue and Jackson are Lebron yes men. Kidd hasn't proven to be much of a coach IMO. Give me someone new, like Becky Hammon. So many of the other "new" assistants are former players that I don't know anything about, coaching talent wise, so I would leave that to someone more in the know.

The problem is that, unless Magic and Pelinka (or maybe Jeanie) are willing to do like Riley did when Lebron wanted Spo gone...it doesn't matter who the coach is if Lebron won't listen to them.

If they are going to do like Riley did, then they should just keep Luke.

I do like the Becky Hammon idea though. Especially since she's been learning from Pop.

And since he's a bit of an SJW, Lebron would look pretty bad if he started ignoring her, etc. lol

It's getting close though. Out for the year with a phantom injury, even after being traded.

I think they are going after Doc Rivers.

It sure seems like it. There suddenly seems to be a lot of momentum on that rumor.

 

[mick7-1961]

The commissioner and the NBA refs have their collective heads

Let Beasley coach ?

 

[dtgold88]

Let Beasley coach ?

Tri-coaches with Beasley-Lance-McGee. what could go wrong?

 

[Black Adam]

Let Beasley coach ?

if he'd trade LeClown he'd have MY vote...

 

[WiggyRuss]

It's a great opportunity, but Lebron complicates things. As far as credit, she would hopefully outlast the end of Lebron's career, making that less of a factor.

Kyrie was for the most part pretty much a consensus---- but thats a far way away from there being a cant-miss slam dunk #1 pick like a Zion or KAT or Davis or Griffin or Simmons etc. which the CAvs never had.

Was close to consensus, but like you I remember a lot of chatter since they had the 4 they should take D. williams and Knight.
