2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

[WiggyRuss]

How many games have you watched McGruder, White, and Reed play again?

not many...no TV executive is putting that collection of trash on national TV.....dude...those are crappy replacement level players.

there are DOZENS of guys that if you gave them an opportunity sitting on NBA benches that are much better than those guys.

i saw it man- when you have no talent, and no young players since you have dealt away all your picks practically for years- and the ones you didnt trade away you wasted on guys like Shabazz Napier- i get it....it happened to the Cavs too post-LeBron

you have to scrounge the dleague and find the Samardo Samuels...the Jamario Moons, the Okaro Whites, the Rodney McGruders. Guys that have no business being on real NBA teams.

you think the Heat have a better roster than the Rockets?

have u been hitting the sauce a little hard tonight?

i thought MAYBE- you might be able to try and say like the Nuggets, or the Knicks....Houston? REALLY? lol.

Are you that naive?
You're the clown who said your record is what you are, so by your words, the 2-0 is better then the 0-2 Rockets head to head.

How good are the Heat?
I honestly have no clue, but for the last month they've played very good ball and EARNED a lot of wins both at home and on the road vs some quality, average, and bad teams.

I know they were 11-30, and to me, that makes what they are doing even more impressive.

So you have watched zero games of these guys play but you know they suck? Got it lol

Thanks for confirming you're full of shit. You haven't watched these guys play a single game. You're assuming garbage because you never heard their name before

i mean, McGruder and Babbit have to be the 2 worst starters at their positions in the league probably right?

I mean- Trevor Booker and Bogdonovic are starting for the Nets at PF and SF.....Foye at SG...--- and its not like i think those guys are good by any means- i mean they are pretty much bums- but at least they are credible nba players.

Pretty funny coming from a fan of a team who NEEDs our sloppy seconds.
Williams couldn't earn minutes here. Period.

Yes McGruder and Babbit are probably the 2 least known name starters at their position in basketball. You clearly on judge guys on if you heard their name before or not

 

[WiggyRuss]

i seriously cant even believe i am talking about luke babit and rodney mcgruder and okaro white and willie reed.....its just beyond irrelevant...lol. those guys are awful.

id much rather talk about the Cavs winning 6 of 7 and Kyle Korver shooting over 60% from 3 this month.

Pretty funny coming from a fan of a team who NEEDs our sloppy seconds.
Williams couldn't earn minutes here. Period.

hey im glad the Heat cut him...the first thing he said when he got here is that he has never been in a good situation before- always bouncing from shitty team to shitty team. He said his first night playing in the Q was like going back to college.

seeing a 6'8" guy with that much athleticism, a former #2 pick who is only 25 years old and can finish like that is EXACTLY what the CAvs were missing off their bench to balance out all their shooting- a guy who can roll to the rim and finsih above it....its why he is shooting 77% from the field.

you have fun with Luke Babbit and rodney mcgruder......ill GUARANTEE you the Cavs will continue enjoying having Williams. lol.

thanks Pat!

Williams ASKED to be released and has gone from the outhouse to the penthouse.

When the Nets win 14 for the season, let alone 14-16 let me know.

So the Heat have 2 of the worst starters in the league with McGruder and Babbitt, Dragic and Waiters make you barf, plus Whiteside should be blackballec and in Lebanon, yet they've been the best team in the NBA for near a month.

OK, yep, you nailed it

and dont worry.

LeBron will be able to get out of him, with his superior leadership, what the Heat couldn't.

[bksballer89]

And I also don't get why you keep bringing up Luke Babbitt. I clearly stated that he is what he is. A guy who get limited minutes and who is only out there to spread the floor. James Johnson get the bulk of the minutes at PF.

 

[WiggyRuss]

It's why i prefaced my statement with "there was"...

ah, if only you could actually COMPREHEND what you read...

must be all that LeClown worship...

well thats why i asked "in the league"

though i will have to agree with you LeBron's passing ability definitely is reminiscent of Magic's...

He asked to be released because he wanted to try to go somewhere where he could get minutes.
He couldn't get minutes here because better players then him were playing.
Find me one quote where he said he SHOULD have been playing.

When the Cavs signed him, what did I tell you?
I said he is a high energy guy who plays hard.
Was I wrong?
As far as game though, both Johnsons here run circles around him.
He's not a floor spreader.
He wasn't going to crack the rotation.

I don't know how true it is that he asked to be release. He was getting release no matter what. White 2nd 10 day contract had just expired so the Heat had to decide between signing White for the rest of the year and releasing a player or risk losing White which was a lock to happen

wait i thought you said Johnson is one of the 6-9....what? you have babbit ranked ahead of him on the roster? i sure dont.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

This whole discussion was bench.
Babbit starts, for a reason.
Dragic/Waiters and he do a nice job of spreading the court.
Makes it easier for Whiteside, and if you double Whiteside they can all hit shots.

Babbitt on his own is as useless as Korver, right?
You use your weapons in the most effective way.

babbit plays 15 minutes a night because he is garbage. lol.....honest to God.....

can you believe 4 years ago you guys had Dwayne Wade, LeBron James and Chris Bosh and now you are trying to convince someone that your 25-32 team that starts Luke Babbit and Rodney McGruder isnt garbage? lol.....

that just isnt a drop off- thats fucking swan-diving into the grand canyon.

have a WONDERFUL evening.

He asked, but you are correct, he didn't need to, he was odd man out.

Bosh is medically retired and Wade is no loss.
James is James, and within his rights will do whatever he chooses annually.
Not sure what your point is?

1) Whoever said Luke Babbit was good? I have not seen @TurnUpTheHeat or I say that.

2) We had a wonderful 4 years with those guys. Likely win 3 titles if not for the Lebron choke job vs Dallas.....Life goes on and if not for Bosh medical condition, we would have had another set of good years ongoing

3) When you win 14 of 16 after starting 11-30, there is clearly some good things about this team. You don't win 14 of 16 in this league by mistake.
