2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

He didn't look like that in college.

He has to be injured or he is the NBA version of Jamarcus Russell.

Got paid and stopped having any fucks to give about playing.

If he's injured he shouldn't be playing 20+ minutes. His form is so fucked up, he shoots it on the way down. Whatever he tried to fix, it isn't working. I'd rather have Stauskas play his minutes, and holy shit that's bad.

Maybe if his mouthpiece is replaced w/ a pacifier he wouldn't act like a lil child. Steph's too good of a hoopster to be acting like a bitch again.

Pfff...so he gets frustrated from time to time like all players do. I'd rather he be frustrated with himself than throw his teammates under the bus in his presser.

Name 1 other player that has thrown his mouthpiece like that now multiple times.

The Suns are really really really bad

@AirlessJordan: "Spurs start 2-0. Since 1997, San Antonio has had a winning regular season record for all but 48 days of 20+ years."


He meant to say a .500 record or better. But still, wow...

So....

Cavs lose to the Magic, huh?

They're the worst team in the league by far right now. I've been bouncing around on the League Pass free weekend checking out every team and even the Bulls and Hawks play with better cohesion. There are AAU teams that play better defense than the Suns. Hell, there was one play last night where I literally laughed out loud. The Lakers set a screen like 35 feet from the basket and Tyson Chandler came all the way out of the paint for no reason, showed way too hard (he was like two steps from half court) and Ball just easily dribbled into the lane for a layup as everyone just stared. It's like no player on that roster has ever played basketball

By a lot. At home. First week of the season is all weird and fucked up (injuries, bad teams beating good ones, etc)

Shorter preseason effect?

Just looked at the box score. That boy is washed

Not sure he is washed, but he just doesn't fit. He never really did fit with LeBron. But, when they paired together initially, they were arguably the two best players in the league so it didn't matter.

Fultz vs Deandre FT shooting contest

That is the number 1 pick?

I am telling you guys. If he is hurt, he gets a pass, but he needs to sit down. If he isn't hurt, he is going to be a bust. That is awful.

If the draft were today, based on what we have seen from all the rookies, I bet Fultz would not be top 10. Might fall out of the lottery all together.

I missed the game on Friday......Ball almost had a trip-doub?

 

[DJ Fieri]

29 points, 11 rebounds, and 9 assists?

Sick.

 

[DJ Fieri]

That less than a minute rap he released left a lot to be desired......just hoop it up, L!!!!

Cavs' Wade after big loss: Still searching for role

Cavs' Wade after big loss: Still searching for role

It is pretty obvious really. He should anchor the second unit. Playing with James doesn't make much sense. Let him go hard for 20 minutes a night with the ball in his hands coming off the bench. Wade being the 4th or 5th option in the starting 5 is dumb.

 

[Black Adam]

How in the fuck was he the number 1 pick?

better them than us...

The Suns are really really really bad

what gave it away...?

the man has NO business starting...

Losing by 40+ points 2x in the first 3 games lol
