2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

Win #10 for Brooklyn. With the acquisition of Okafor, Russell returning soon from injury, and playing in the east, I'm starting to think 30 wins isn't out of the question for Brooklyn.

Changed your opinion on Brooklyn yet @tlance ?

Hell, if Lin didn't get hurt, I'd pick them to make #8. Atkinson has totally revived Crabbe, Carroll, and Dinwiddie

Bad loss for OKC. If this continues, what are the chances George stays?

Maybe part of the problem is PG himself

In all honesty I haven't seen many OKC games this year, but it sounds like three alphas on one team just doesn't work.

Okafor helps a little. Not as much as some on here think. They are 10 years away from being relevant. Okafor and Russell as their two best players ensure mediocrity for a long time.

But yeah. 30 wins is certainly possible this year.

It probably doesn't.

I honestly laugh at all the "alpha" talk. Many on here post about so and so not being an alpha like it is a bad thing. Yes, there have been a few dominating alpha males who have been transcendent players, but there have also been many who were bad teammates.

You don't have to be an "alpha" to be great, but too many alphas can absolutely hurt chemistry.

Forgot about the game until it had started, @knowyourenemy....they have already played twice.....I'll set up a game tonight or this weekend if you're game.....

Lonzo is the GOAT

MY MAN!!!!! WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN?

Ball balled out last night.

10 points (on 5-of-11 shooting), 8 assists, 8 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 3 steals.....kid can play. But it's going to be a learning experience. Bring in James and PG and watch magic happen.

I hate to say this because it's Christmas time......but I wish LaVar gets hit by a bus.

Another bad L for the Thunder.....this isn't. It's almost a third of the season in.....



Donovan takes the L and gets fired soon?

The Lakers can't handle Lavar

I wouldn't go that far. 10 years is a stretch and so many different things that we can't see now can happen 3-5 years from now.

If someone would have told any of us in 2009 or 2010 that the Warriors would be relevant and winning titles by 2015, we would have all laughed at that person.

I accept alternate forms of gratitude.

The Nets are 10 years away?


No fucking way. Not in the watered down EC.

Russ and Okafor aren't
