2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Heatles84]

i enjoy watching the Cavs stomp the shit outta teams in the regular season....sprinkled in with some very very good games- watching the team grow together- watching how Kyrie and TT continue to improve, how Love has found his groove in Cleveland- how they have turned into one of the best 3 pt. shooting teams of all time - the combo of Frye and Love is just insane front-court shooting wise etc....

and of course- enjoying watching the brilliance of The King- one of the all-time greats.

The fact that Lebron manages to fit his entire shaft in your mouth is rather impressive. Then again, hot dog down a hallway.........

hey....how long was it after Jordan that you got a talent like Lebron? quite a while...

it could be years and years before we see someone else at his level--- and just like i said- LeBron is still producing his most defining moments like "The Block"- which will occupy slot 1 of any montage of his greatest hits after his career is over.

enjoy The King's true greatnesss while you still can.

So we're just going to act like Kobe didn't exist? Cool

Kobe is tito....lebron is michael.

DeAndre gets a chance to spread his wings a bit.

I wish Brice Johnson was ready to go.

I'd love to see what he could do with Paul and DeAndre.

He did well last year when Blake went down. He would be an absolute monster & could dominate at his position if he learned a few offensive moves besides catching lobs.

So the NBA is changing the all star voting. Instead of all fans, its now 50% fans, 25% players, 25% media. Bout fuggin time. We can cut back on popularity votes for guys that have missed most of the season and get in some guys that deserve it

So are the players allowed to vote for themselves? If so I'm willing to bet that will just go down as an extra vote for each of themselves.

Ya know? I mean, who did LBJ say he admired as a kid besides MJ? He even admitted he copied his afro. SMH

Patrick Beverley: 'This year, I'm the best defender in the league'

Tristan Thompson?

Dan Gilbert is Beavis & Butthead all in one.

How will Wiggy's Cavs get over the loss of Birdman? That's gonna kill their bench.

 

[LAD]

Tristan Thompson?

Of course, how could I've forgotten that?

in all seriousness- Anderon was pretty worthless but he was at least depth

now they only have 3 big men- Love, Frye and Thompson- if one of those guys gets hurt they will be scrambling a little bit....not much margin for error now.

Greg Oden's looking for a job in the NBA right now.

Yep....he's one of the few guys that actually has LESS post moves than Dwight Howard.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

That's about what I was thinking too. What about Cousins? Or is he maybe just a shade below those guys?

Bron, Whiteside, Cousins, Freak, Kawhi, Towns, Love, Butler, George should be the next tier...

Lots of guys putting up big numbers.

Porzingis, Kemba and CP3 should be up there too.

The really important question is...where does Jammin' Jimmer Freddette rank among the NBA's elite right now?

Dubs/Jazz tonight.....SHould be good

I think the Jazz can win if Steph, KD, Klay & The Nutcracker (aka: Draymond) don't play.
