2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

You know what convinced me that he was a flopper was when I saw a close of up of his biceps and came to the conclusion that no person alive could really knock him down if he wanted to remain standing. Then I made a note to myself to never try to knock him down

Shaq in his prime could probably knock him down. But that's about it. lol

Hater? I really don't care about the Lakers. I really don't hate any team in the league. I dislike certain players and fan bases.

Unless my team is constantly playing a certain team in the playoffs then I really don't hate any team. The last team I probably hated were the Celtics from 2011-2013

I don't like a couple of teams in sports, like Notre Lame, Donkeys, Chargers, etc., but I HATE only 1 team, and that's the CHEATRIOTS.

I have doubts about even that one to be honest, but come to the conclusion that by nothing but size and mostly muscle, he could have. Sometimes weighing a 100 pounds just gives you the edge. Had some young boys years ago in my church that liked to wrestle with me. They found out the hard way when I knocked him on the house like they was a small toy. I didn't even know I had put much effort into it

In basketball there's really no true rivals anymore. I def hate a few teams in the NFL, MLB, and CFB.

Exactly! I only hated the Celtics with the big 3 for those couple of years, when the Lakers were going at it with them.

Get ready to hate them again tonight when the C's ask Lonzo to cut a switch and then proceed to whip his @ss with it.

I became an NBA and Lakers fan right at the end of the Celtics 60's dominance when the hate between the 2 teams was still strong. As I said, the first thing I learned about being a Lakers fan was to hate the Celtics.

I'll always hate them and deeply respect them at the same time.

I just want them to continue losing so that the Lakers can catch and break their record in the finals. Then they will never be able to hold that over Lakers fans again

I'm hoping the Lakers can get to be contenders soon so that we can hopefully get back to that good old fashioned respectful hate that we saw in the 80's and late 2000's.

Yeah, that would be sweet.

In all seriousness, could be a good game between our teams as early as tonight... that bastard center Lopez has typically lit up the Celtics.

lol

Omg...I was trying to resist.

Thank you!!!!!

Not really a rivalry, but the Warriors always get up for games against the Clippers. I don't think it was a coincidence that the Warriors were playing pretty shitty to start the year, but the turnaround started with the Clippers game. They weren't going to lose that no matter what.

I'm looking forward to seeing Tatum and Kuzma do battle.

Hammer meets nail.

If this is your way of asking for some of my meth, the answer is no.

It's not a rivalry in the traditional sense, but the Warriors and Spurs feel like they're on a collision path every year. I honestly don't care who's on the Spurs, but I'd still fear them over the Thunder or Rockets any day. The Spurs just have something about them that gives the Warriors problems.

Add a healthy Kawhi and a healthy TP and it would be a really tough matchup.

Thunder and Warriors could be a thing.

But, might only be for one Season.

OKC has Russ , Adams locked up and Hoodie Melo for another Season.

But, George?

Dunno...they need to perform better.

It's still early...they have time to work out the kinks.

If the Lakers can improve enough to challenge the Warriors while they are still good, I could see a bit of a rivalry developing. Especially with Luke having been a Warriors coach and them having The Logo as a consultant.

I think the problem OKC is gonna face against GS is playing defense. They won't win scoring 140 points if they let GS score 150. LOL

No Horford tonight against the Lakers.
