2016 NBA Off-Season Thread

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

He's just big boned!!

 

[Bulletz]

Booker and Hunter going at it in this game.

 

[Hambombs]

He is a stud.

He doesn't look 6'7 to me, unless you count his hair.

But, his pro comparison is Jimmy Butler.

Not bad.

This seems to be the consensus...

Upside: Size, Physicality, Quickness, Star Potential

Downside: Inconsistent jump shot, Play making ability, Risky shot selection

He reminds me of tyreke evans.

 

[Hambombs]

Fat Sullinger?

Hes a pretty good player though

 

[tlance]

Norris Cole for Tyler Johnson, Waiters for Crabbe?

Lance Stephenson, Harkless, Hairston, Terrance Jones, Jordan Hill, Ty Lawson, Kevin Martin.....

Slim Pickings.....

Should look for trades.

Well, the Nets can always tank and try to improve the Celtics picks. Then they can start on the 6ers plan in 2019.

I don't think that is a positive. Tyreke Evans puts up numbers, but does he help his team win?

So far what I see is the sheer size and speed. Seems like he will defend well. Maybe a bigger version of Marcus Smart on defense. He seems a little over confident in the way he plays tho. I guess thats good but I have seen him force his O. That said that kid takes it to the hole like he is 7 feet. IF he develops a >35/.40 3 point shot this could be an entertaining player above the rim

They should of drafted kris dunn

Timmy D just called a quit

 

[Shanemansj13]

So are the cavs

Actually all the players have talked about is how this is for the city and the fans. Unlike, the Warriors who said the champagne comment last year. Anyways, the Warriors are just fine and dandy, they got another top 3 player in the league lol

Timmy D just called a quit

I think it was the right time. Great player and great career

The champagne comment is nothing. Cavs fans were all saying "fuck steph curry" at the parade. I never heard us say "fuck lebron" at the parade

 

[Kold]

MAN, Kobe and Tim gone in the same year...

Impossible. Cavs fans are the classiest bunch and we're all just hating ass haters because we don't gargle Lebron's balls. At least that's what they keep telling us.

All time great

This is fucking bullshit.

The league just got a little bit lessened even as it moves forward to greater things and new heights.
I understand the passage of father time, but it just doesn't have the same feeling.

I knew it was coming, but it is still a tough bittersweet pill to swallow.
I literally don't remember a time when my team did not have Dave or Timmy leading the roster.

I was hoping that he would relent, and enjoy a victory lap as well.
It is everything against his character and demeanor, but just maybe.....
Oh well, congrats!

I don't think we will ever see one like him again.
And that is literal. We will not see him.
He will disappear, and briefly make an appearance in 5 years at the Hall of Fame then disappear forever.
