2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

I honestly think the best thing for Lonzo would be to go to a Team outside of California.

Lavar can't be in 2 places at one time and needs to micromanage the two that are still at Chino Hills.

Magic and Jeanie ain't having this Stage Mother crap.

I was looking forward to seeing him play in person.

But, NBA League Pass will do.

Can you imagine if he stays in CA? He'll grow to hate his dad. He needs to be cut off the umbilical cord.

He's like Richard Williams, Venus and Serena's dad

I was about to ask you what Lebron would've done.

Would be awesome if the Lakers got the #1 pick and took Fultz or Jackson. I'd love to see what LaVar had to say.

i keep thinking we should go center anyways. course i might be the only one who thinks that...

that was sarcasm right?

To be fair, he did leave their last game because of a knee issue.
Lots of players are day to day.
If he's not feeling near 100%, he shouldn't play IMO.

Just because those 2 don't, doesn't mean James shouldn't though IMO.

The players are making all this extra cash because of the TV deal.
It's really a slap in the face.

This is what's funny about all of this resting. Players wanted their contracts to reflect off of the new TV deal so the salary cap jumps. Its economics, if this continues, ratings are going to dip and these contracts will be revised when their contracts are up. What Pop did was one thing - he rested older players as one poster said. But how many rest days do these guys need? Especially when they're making north of 8-figures per year.

 

[Heatles84]

Even funnier that they won't sit Tristan because of his streak, like it's so important.

In reality it ended last year when they put him in just for the opening tip, then pulled him.

Anyone who keeps referencing TK's streak is a cuck.

 

[Heatles84]

I'm disgusted that the media is giving him so much attention.

He was a shit athlete and is trying to live vicariously through his kids.

It's fucking sad.

I'm pretty sure, as we speak, he's trying to find a Kar-trashian for one of them to date.

Give me the older one (not Kim or the Lamar's fat sloppy seconds). I'd hate fucker her to oblivion.

 

[bksballer89]

Warriors looking like shit

ABC's broadcast crew calls the Cavaliers 'an absolute joke' for resting their players

Maybe they should quit scheduling the diva teams.

I know a team that's never on national TV.
That teams is fun to watch.
That team plays hard every night.
That team never rests players.
That team is the best team in the league for 2 months and running.

“If this was any other business, it would be a prosecutable offense — this type of bait-and-switch maneuver that the NBA allows its teams to pull,” added Van Gundy, “and quite frankly, if you look at the athletic performance teams, these groups that are supposedly preventing injury, when I look at the Cleveland Cavaliers, they’ve been injured all year, so how good are they doing at what they say the can accomplish?”



Ouch.

I don't think there are any that would be worth a top 3 pick. They can get a center with the Houston pick.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

“I’m not the type of guy who wants to sit down and rest. I think you owe it to the fans,” added Wall. “They paid money to come see us play. That’s how a professional goes out there and competes. If nothing is hurt, you can play go play.”


Please don't ever rate Kyrie over Wall.

Maybe Hakeem?

 

[trojanfan12]

Maybe Hakeem?

He's kinda old. lol

He's kinda old. lol

Still better then Tristan
