2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

Thank you, Nets. You guys are the real MVPs.

Oh, and the Heat won!

My car got stolen from the parking lot of the office building where i work while I sat at my desk.

What a day.

Insurance covering it? My fiance's car got stolen a while back....she didn't have full coverage. Luckily it was only a 2000 Honda Civic (shocker).

so im not sure what you are saying---

you honestly think there is no benefit? or you just think it doesnt matter if there is a benefit- if they an play they can play?

I understand the benefit, but I don't agree with doing it. At least not the way it's being done and the frequency with which it's being done. They should go back to resting guys for a couple of games once playoff positioning is secured. That was fair because they still got rest while fans and tv partners (in other words, those who are putting all of that money in their pockets) knew it was coming. So, if they didn't want to spend the money to watch the backups play, they knew not to buy tickets or broadcast those games nationally.

Now, it almost feels like a 50/50 proposition on whether or not fans and tv partners will get the product they are paying for.

Did you guys know tomorrow will be the first day all season where the Cavs have every single player active that will be a part of their post season rotation?

Unless a couple of them are "tired."

Oh, I give it up to Lebron on that one. And it's not just because I despise everything Lavar Ball stands for (he's a cvnt douche bag). I'm waiting for Lavar Ball to say he'd beat Lebron one-on-one. That'll be the day.

As much as I dislike his approach, this is the U.S.A. and he is entitled to speak his opinion of what he feels James' kids might be in for.

James is also entitled to defend his kids and kick lavars ass

I agree with his right to speak his mind. I also agree with Lebron's right to punch him in the face for talking about his kids.

Lavar's clearly got a big mouth...

LeClown's clearly got a big mouth...

You don't talk about someone's kids, especially young kids.

He offered an opinion about what he feels James kids will face.
How is that talking about them?
Regardless, he can say whatever he wants.
Not sure why every word Ball says has to be reported, but that's another issue.

If James gets in a fight, does he ask for an extra minute rest between rounds?

Only if his coach thinks he needs to. lol

I think you should listen to the podcast clip

Actually he's not.
James can SAY whatever he wants, and he always does.

I hope James sees this and whoops your ass too, lmfao

Maybe.
I personally wouldn't offer an opinion like that, but no matter what he said, he's well within his rights to say it.
I've heard many things come out of James mouth that I know is total bullshit.
Does anyone think that Ball doesn't believe what he said?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

He better hurry up.
Isn't it time for him to go off the internet/ social media for a day or 2 during the playoffs before he feels the need to break his silence?
