2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

Trust the process

Oh definitely.

I've given up on the possibility of a no-excuse-Warriors-Cavs-matchup. If last year wasn't good enough, no year will ever be. There's always an excuse if you really want to find one.

Not really. We've had injuries and suspensions in both series on both sides. The last Finals the Heat went into, both teams were fully healthy. Every single Heat fan that has a functioning brain cell will acknowledge that the Spurs were just the flat out better team in 2014.

What did you guys think about Stoudemires comments about teh gheys?

Stupid...

 

[LAD]

So when the season is complete is 6 weeks, Mr. Embiid would have played 31 out of a possible 246 games in his first 3 years.

Good gawd, it's already been 3 years since he was drafted?

 

[LAD]

Now that's some serious Hall of Fame caliber shit right there.

He probably idolizes Kyrie.

Greg Oden > Joel Embiid.

 

[TJL]

Stupid...

I thought it was brutally honest, lmfao.

I think it was his honest answer. But I still think it's stupid. My thought is you avoid someone who has a contagious condition.

I'll take words over a shot to the jewels any day.

Nope.

As juvenile as it is, you can say anything to me and Ill laugh in your face, as long as you dont touch me. My Mom or my Kids?

We've had injuries and suspensions in both series on both sides.

What we had was 11 games missed by the Cavs 2nd and 3rd best player.

And then 2.5 games missed by the Warriors 6th best player.


The 1 game suspension that resulted from an accumulation of flagrant fouls isn't even worthy of mentioning in the same breath as injuries that can't be controlled.

Meh, I don't mind that he wouldn't want to shower with someone that could be sexually attracted to him.

I'm sure most women would feel weird if I just walked into their showers and stripped down to bath.

But, it doesn't really matter to me, I was never one to shower with others, I lived close to school, so after gym class and games I'd just go home and shower.

He went out of his way to be offensive.

Yea, the I'd run across the street thing was offensive lol

He probably just should have said no, I'm not cool with it and left it at that.

Nothing wrong with his feelings.

It was the tackless way he expressed it.

Being gay is not a disease.

I agree he's entitled to his own feelings/opinion.

But I think women would feel weird if you walked into their showers because you're a stranger. But when it's a team mate that element of surprise shouldn't be there. So, saying he'd avoid them only leaves us to conclude it's because of their sexual preference- and that IMO is stupid. Just because a man is ghey doesn't necessarily mean he would be attracted to every man he sees.

 

[Wishbone]

That cupcake's been torching you guys. Wasn't sure if you were aware.

He does that then disappears in games 5 and 6.

Yup.

He's not the only person on the planet that wouldn't be comfortable with it.

But, switch out black for Gay and he would be offended.

I'm not saying it's the same thing.

I'm just putting it in context.

Plenty of white people want to avoid black people like the plague.

But, if they said it out load they'd get CRUCIFIED.
