2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

how old is Crawford again? thought he was starting to get up there...

Crawford & Pierce are so old in NBA years they take halftime naps.

When is the airing of grievances?

I would hope right after the annual buffet...but before the feats of strength....

It's a Festivus miracle!

Houston we have a problem. Not good when Rondo is your best 3pt shooter on the team. LOL crazy stat. I just heard this. If true they need to make some trades.

The Spurs are the only team with a shot.

You'd probably beat the Clips in 5.

How about the rockets? How would they fair against the dubs?

 

[Vyle203]

Oh my God Celtics. Box the f*ck out!!

Cavs not having Mo Williams, Anderson and Jr Smith availaible at all for the next few months isnt a good thing thats for sure-

but its not like the bench is dying for depth or anything- Shumpert, Dunleavy, Frye and Jefferson is very solid- especially iwth how good Shumpert has been playing this year. Dunleavy is having a good game finally...i think some regular playing time will help him get his stroke--- and Frye has been a great 3rd big man. And that isnt even counting Mcrae and Felder who can play a little here and there.

Cavs will definitely be aggresive at the trade deadline and the buyout deadline if they can improve- but its not like its an emergency or anything.

5 max.

Dude, the Rox are the Swap meet version of the Warriors.

They look similar from a distance.

But, not even close to the same quality.

How does being hardcapped affect their ability to add a player?

Can they get a hardship?

Noel would be great.

they can make trades and use their trade exception or sign minimum free agents

 

[Vyle203]

Yea, but they'd probably want a Nets pick, and well, to hell with that.

Adams and Kanter are not easy to deal with obviously, but damn, put a body on them at least. Frustrating.

LeBron, Kyrie and Love checked out of the game with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter up 42.....its 98-57 at the end of 3.....lol....

that was a cruel thing the schedules did to the Nets giving them the Warriors and Cavs on back to back nights.

Kyrie is really looking to pass more the last month then i have ever seen in his career. Another double digit assist night in less than 3 qtrs. of work. 6 steals for KI tonight too.

Suicide watch in Brooklyn is ongoing.

Really good games right now between Warriors/Pistons and Thunder/Celtics. For those who don't have LP, the thunder/celtics game is on NBATV

 

[bksballer89]

Durant is just too good but just picked up his 5th foul

 

[bksballer89]

The Chicago Bulls are under .500

 

[bksballer89]

Holy shit I think that was the first time ever I heard Tommy admit a Celtics player committed a foul. He must be in the holiday spirit
