2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

On the bright side, this situation seems to be healing the racial divide...well, at least in New York.


Seriously, they were chanting for him at a Rangers game.

It would be easier to find a microscopic Waldo, than finding a black guy in the crowd in a hockey arena.

You gotta love sports!!!

WATCH: Fans chant 'Charles Oakley' and 'Free Oakley' at Rangers game

First off, true to your earlier point, and 2nd, we got "we want Oakley" chants at the Knicks game as well. I know exactly what Knick fans are going through. In the past, no matter how much us Laker fans disagreed, we always agreed, and sort of bonded over our united disdain for Jim Buss

Out of nowhere. I kept thinking that you guys are screwing up the lottery pick, but screw it, might as well keep going with it if you hit a double digit win streak

Heats Johnson & Johnson has to be one of the better 1-2 bench duos in the league.

It's hard to believe based on the first 41 games results, but it's easy to see why they are winning games now if you watch them.
Forget the names on the back of the jerseys.
These guys play extremely hard, as well as the right way.

What's funny is I saw that 8 of the players from our team, including Whiteside were at one point in the D-league. I've knocked Spo before, but the man is proving he's no fluke as a coach this season. Really impressive.

Would've loved a high draft pick this upcoming draft. But @bksballer89 mentioned it shows that we can win even if we don't have a stacked roster. Given the talent, coaching can take you places.

Our roster's going to look very different next year. But I want James Johnson here. Honestly think he's going to be our next UD (enforcer role).

We creeping.

I agree.
Who knew James Johnson had this versatile a game?
I saw a lot of Raptors games, but I never saw this.

Dewayne Dedmon quietly coming on.

Really needed to find another hidden gem Spurs player castoff reclamation....might have found another.

Spurs can actually field a fairly athletic lineup with all their bargain bin players they have found in the last few years in Simmons, Green, Dedmon to go with Leonard.

Most athleticism in several years....which isn't elite athleticism, but at least average.

Has that kind of triple double ever happened before?

If so, not often.

The Kings twitter account is being overly kind to the Hawks team, players, arena, etc tonight because the NBA doesn't like when they would troll other teams and the Hawks are being kind back. NBA taking away one of the few enjoyments I had with the league

The only Heat team from the big 3 era to have a longer streak than this team was the 2012-2013 Heat who won 27 games in a row
