2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

That's what I anticipated.

TNT dropped the ball big time. Let's show a meaningless Wizards/Celtics game instead of D-Wade last home game which likely will have huge playoffs implications. Awful

Given the choice I'd probably prefer Miami/Brooklyn, but I could understand. Cs are a large market and should be fighting for the 4 seed.

what contrarian....said I'd prefer Mia/Brooklyn?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I know.

Arena they were saying 6:30

It’ll be the same though
Traffic nightmare.
People will be late.

They should have made it 8 pm game

 

[tducey]

I'd rather Heat/Nets myself. Dwayne Wade's last regular season home game and 2 games going at it for the last few playoff spots in the East.

Buck up Nancy, lol.

They recalled Zubac from the G League to take his spot in the rotation. If he was worthy of a roster spot, why didn't any other team sign him? He simply didn't work out. I'm sure they didn't sign him with the intention of releasing him in January, but when the season isn't going to plan, why guarantee a contract for a depth center when you already have replacements in the G League waiting (Zubac and Bryant).

Bad faith agreements with players are a really bad idea. If players don't trust management, why are they going to sign there?

Players all realize it is a business and sometimes tough decisions need to be made. But if you make a verbal committment to a player and then renege on it, that will make other players distrust you.

Magic player says MVP should be between Curry and Durant

Steph Curry isn't going to win the NBA MVP this season.

Neither is Kevin Durant.

But according to Magic guard Evan Fournier, the Warriors superstars should be the Top 2 candidates.

"If we're talking best player on best team, I'd go with Steph," Fournier told Ric Bucher of Bleacher Report. "It should really be between Steph and KD, but they're never going to get the credit they deserve because they're on the same team.


Evan Fournier doing his best, trying to be #futurewarrior

NBA Rumors: Lakers Are ‘Not Aligned On Any Level’ Heading Into Offseason, Per Adrian Wojnarowski

As cited by Bleacher Report, ESPN‘s Adrian Wojnarowski described the Lakers in a video posted on Thursday as an organization that is “not aligned really on any level” at this point, where superstar forward LeBron James has been shut down for the season and the team has just four games to play. In specific, the ESPN NBA insider detailed how the team’s chain of command has been an issue, with team owner Jeanie Buss, president Earvin “Magic” Johnson, general manager Rob Pelinka, head coach Luke Walton, and James all allegedly unable to see eye-to-eye on matters.

Listen to Colin Cowherd discuss a recent Adrian Wojnarowski report that details the 2019 Lakers as a complete dumpster fire the likes in which the franchise has never seen before.

It was already one of the most humiliating seasons in Lakers history as the team currently sits in 11th place in the Western Conference with a superstar in LeBron James that had made the playoffs every season since 2003, but now the real turmoil is starting to leak out. Wojnarowski is reporting that the entire front office is in a power struggle over what the direction of the team, while down below on the court LeBron is alienating everyone on the roster.

Looking for his pearl of wisdom.

That's the way they do business. Not only is management incompetent but when they do stuff like this it makes you question if they should be running any current NBA team.

*cough*

The Cavs.
