2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

I know that but I thought their addition might prevent a 40-plus point blowout. Most NBA players have experienced blowout L's but not 40-plus point blowouts.

A blowout is a blowout and a loss is a loss no matter the final score. Does it suck to lose by 46? Yeah, but I don't think losing by 25 instead was gonna make the players feel better.

I avoid all sports news when the Clippers play the Warriors.

It's always brutal.

Yeah it sucks, especially the road games. The Kings have been somewhat competitive against them in Sacramento including beating them last season, but @GS it seems to always be a 20+ point loss.

Nice tidbit I read about J-Rich in the Palm Beach Post @TurnUpTheHeat @Heatles84

* Among the 212 players defending seven or more shots per game this season, Josh Richardson is statistically the top one. Richardson is limiting the player he’s guarding to a league-best 32.7 percent shooting, which is 12.1 percent worse than their normal shooting percentage.

Boston/Detroit is damn good.

97-97 with 6 to go in the 4th.

Has anyone else noticed that games move faster since they made the pace of game changes by limiting timeouts?

This Celtics/Pistons game is at the 4 minute mark and it started at 7:40 EST. Last year it would have been the end of the 3rd/start of the 4th

Love the ovation they gave Bradley.

Very classy and a Damn good game.

Detroit looking like they'll win this one. Very good win

Only a matter of time before Lavar says something dumb about the greatest Bruin ever.

Why would he say something bad about John Wooden?

 

[trojanfan12]

I'm 5-11

Which one is you?

@logic great win.

Jackson, Harris, Drummond all had helluva games.

Congrats.

NA

They played great. If they could just stay that focused all game, every game they could do some damage. They are off to a great start of the season; I keep waiting for the wheels to come off, but have my fingers tightly crossed that they have grown up.

The Sixers decided that making baskets wasn't something they wanted to do tonight. 2-25 from 3 as a team. Not going to win many games playing like that.

I thought Hill and Randolph were going to provide veteran leadership.

Would you want Zach Randolph to be a veteran leader for your team?

I know he has been a productive player, but he has also had major character issues throughout his career. Not sure he is the role model I would want for a young nucleus.

Good news: Kings kept it close for 1 half
Bad news: They'll be down 25 going into the 4th quarter

So much for that, Warriors must be saving the beatdown for the 4th quarter tonight.

Philly's asking price for Okafor is a 2nd round pick.....teams are convinced he'll be bought out so they are waiting for that to happen so they don't have to give up anything to get him. Something has to give.
