2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

Well, you know you are getting Hezonja.

The Magic have misused this kid for years.

He's pretty athletic, has a good outside shot and is cocky as Fuck.

"Respect? No, I never had respect to anybody on a basketball court," Hezonja told Sportando. "I heard about, ‘If they smell blood, you get eaten.' I'm not like that. I don't care. Whether it's a veteran or a young player standing in front of me I always have the same goal. I want to run over everybody."

@LAD and @flyerhawk will like this. @trojanfan12 and I, not so much....lol


Here's Hezonja not stopping with his team up 19 points with five seconds left on the clock. He should just run out the clock, but no. Instead, he'd rather establish himself as the alpha and put an exclamation point on Barcelona's playoff victory.

Yeah, I know they were interested in him on draft night and discussed a trade for him previously. His first 2 years weren't great but he's been better this season especially in January and February. He's an athletic wing who has shown at times he can shoot 3's and only 23 years old. As long as he's not asking for a crazy amount of money I'd be okay with it but that would also probably mean no Mikal Bridges.

 

[Bolts]

In a perfect world, you want Doncic?

Shit, go Euro Kings...lol

I would take Ayton because I am not sold on Trill unless you surround him with Shooters.

He could play the Capela, Deandre role if you get some gunners.

Doncic and Ayton are on a separate level from everyone else, if the Kings win the lottery I would pick Ayton and find WCS a new home. A lineup of Fox/Bogdan/Mario(?)/Skal or Giles/Ayton would excite me.

Yeah, he finally got some consistent court time and showed some promise.

Sounds like you guys will kick the tires on him.

With the connections he mentions, I'd probably say the Kings are the favorites to get Mario. Another team could offer a lot more and get him instead, we'll see. I'm ready for the draft/offseason...

I'm good with this....

Predicting NBA playoff seeds, matchups and win totals

@Wamu.....

Ohio States sphincter is starting to clinch.

Can't let them storm back from down 11 this late in the game.

The Buckeyes took care of business.

Well, in the meantime, if Alabama and Nova take care of business today, we can have a little mini pre-draft combine with Brunson, Sexton and Mikal in the next matchup.

Outside of Ayton and Bam, they are the guys I like the most.

Bring it on

For the 2nd time in a week, the refs missed a crucial 5 second call against team Miami played in the final seconds of the game lol

 

[Wamu]

Bring it on

Did you bring enough popcorn for everyone?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Bring it on

Have you seen that skinny ass Euro kid Musa?

Everyone is so focused on Doncic that I have never even heard of this guy.

Dude is 6'9, a generously listed 195, and bombs away from all over the court....Lmfao

There is no way he could do this in the NBA, right?

I see him in the 1st round of every updated mock.

He'd be perfect for the 76ers. He would seen the court for a year to a year & a half anyway. By then he should be ready.

As long as he can be efficient, he'll have a spot in the league especially being 6'9.

But, he has a fricking hunchback!!!!!

Like, I'm not even joking...lol

At first, I thought he was just slouching.

But, Dude looks like he has low-key scoliosis.


Weaknesses: Playing with passion isn't always a good thing, since he occasionally gets caried away by his emotions ... He has an incosistent motor, with a lot of ups and downs even in the same game ... He is a better athlete than most think, but he is still just an average athlete by NBA standards ... He must bulk up considerably ... Has a peculiar body structure with a slight hunch back with small chest and waist, so it's not certain how he can really bulk ip ...

Heat back to being extremely short handed. Back to missing 3 of their top 8 players for multiple games.

Lakers should win by 20+ tomorrow

 

[bksballer89]

Another good win for Toronto
