2022 NBA Offseason thread

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Yes, it's only Preseason.

But, a few thinks have stuck out early.

I. Celtics will be just fine.

2. Wiseman gonna take a step up.

3. THT is absolute garbage and looks like he will be 300lbs in a few years.

How does he not get minutes on this ass of a team?

4. Colin Sexton gonna play like he thinks he's Allen Fucking Iverson.

5. Sexton/Clarkson backcourt will score a ton of points, while losing a ton of games.

6. If Markannen is still around in the 6th round of my fantasy draft, steal.

A couple days after this moron posts this, the Adelaide 36ers hit 24 threes in a 134-124 win over the Phoenix Suns.

John Hollinger has always made my skin crawl. Promotes himself instead of the game.

Craig Randall II torched the Suns for a game-high 35 points on 13-of-21 shooting on Sunday, going 9-of-17 from deep with three boards, two assists, two steals and one block in 37 minutes.

The Suns' coaching staff will not be pleased with the team's perimeter defense. Randall scored in bunches for the G League's Long Island Nets in 2021-22, including consecutive 40-point games, and was named the NBA G League Most Improved Player. Per the LI Nets' team page, "[Randall II] was originally acquired by the Nets after participating in the team’s annual local player tryouts and was named the NBA G League Player of the Month for games played in February, becoming the first local tryout player in the NBA G League to receive the honor and the first in franchise history."

I mean, I don’t necessarily disagree.

1 team is treating it like the exhibition that it is, while the other plays it like it is their Super Bowl.

Games like this with vast difference in approach/investment for the 2 teams involved is not a good thing.

You can make reasonable cases some of these teams shouldn’t feature in preseason exhibition play. I’m just saying I disagree with throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Uneven approaches in PT distribution commonly happen in preseason regardless.

Also just catching up on what went on here over the weekend. @Mecca you're the GOAT.

@trojanfan12 also kudos for being a voice of reason trying to talk to a wall.

Yeah, I just don’t see what the benefit is for the NBA team in these types of games.

So they haven't been seriously considering it all off season?

Seriously though, the timing would seem to indicate that they may be having a harder time finding a way to make Westbrook fit than they thought.

Psycho Bev got it all figured out, they just need to talk to him.

 

[shopson67]

Gets us below the cap and gain 2 trade exceptions. Excellent move.

 

[Wamu]

Kyrie shouldn't be part of any teams long term plans.
