2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Black Adam]

will anyone on SportsHoopla pitch in for my legal bills if i get Blancote to come into the stands and attack me?


umm...no...

but i WILL laugh hysterically when he kicks your teeth down your throat and the video goes viral...

that fair...?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

When have anyone ever said Waiters doesn't play hard?

I haven't watched his whole career, but since he's been here, he's 1000% full steam ahead.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Cavs have a very intriguing up coming schedule this next calendar week....

National TV vs. the Clippers tonight

National TV vs. the Bulls on Friday night

vs. Toronto on Monday night

National TV vs. the Knicks Wednesday


then of course- we have Miami a week from tomorrow tonight at home...i might have to go to that game...Friday night...wonder if i could get good enough tickets to heckle ole Blancote.

Whiteside would laugh at you, about the same we we all do.

Go watch him live though, then come back and report to us about how plodding , etc he is.
Most nights, he's worth the price of admission.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

haha.....get me front row tickets by the Heat bench so i have a fighting shot and maybe we have something tot alk about...

a Friday night game vs. Miami though- those would prob cost a couple G's though.

You would have no shot.
I hear/see what opponents try with him on a nightly basis, and he seems to just laugh and walk away now vs react like he used to.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

cheap? a Friday night game for the Cavs? lol......Miami is def. not the draw it used to be- we all know that-- but "cheap" ???!!!!....you cant get in the lower bowl ANYWHERE for cheap- let alone close to the benches. We are talking about the defending NBA CHAmps here with the mos marketable athlete in N.A. sports since Jordan,cheap ? you have got to be kidding me.

They won't be cheap there..No way.

You actually can get lower bowl, here now, very cheap.

Yeah. I'm mainly talking aboust his ridiculous man bun though.

I know Cleveland is good but man the top of the east would be exhausted playing a season in the west. Clippers just schooling right now

I didn't see parts of the game, but from what I did, he had another decent game.

We had our renunion last week, but please do.

This.

Cavs defense looks like shit. Are they taking a page out of the Warriors playbook? Maybe the Suns? Even the Warriors are starting to play better D

 

[Heatles84]

So the Bulls play a pissed off Cavs team tomorrow. That'll be interesting.

I'll give the Clips some credit, they actually look like a real team this year.

Still think Doc will corch that team to a 2nd round exit.

 

[trojanfan12]

Steady improvement is a good sign.

Agree. Although I'll add that after what we've watched the past few years...any improvement is a good sign. lol

But it will also be the Cavs 3rd in 4 nights and 2nd night of a B2B.

As for the Clippers, Doc needs to make the WCF but it will be hard to blame him if he loses to the Spurs in the 2nd round.

Maybe they secretly fired Lue and hired D'Antoni?

Edit: Nevermind, if D'Antoni was coach, they'd have a hell of a lot more than 83 points with 3 minutes left in the 4th.

Speaking of Clips/Cavs...anyone seen Wiggy?
