2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

@bksballer89 Just saw the Heat's creampuff schedule the rest of the way...Our last Heat/Pacers meeting could end up determining the winner of this bet.

Yeah our schedule is pretty easy. Would love to face Indy or Milwaukee in the playoffs. Can no longer face Milwaukee because they're trash and will likely finish 8th but will take my chances with Indy if we get them....Then again if Indy destroy Miami by 25 on Sunday then I'm likely changing my mind lol

Good win for the Nets, beating the Hornets Wednesday would be great as well.

I don't think you have to worry about the Nets much if your boys are serious about tanking (I have my doubts though). I see several wins for Brooklyn. I think they win against Charlotte, Orlando, Detroit, Chicago 2x, and Boston (final game of season since Boston shouldn't be playing anymore).

That's 28 or 29 wins.

The Kings could easily finish with 29 or 30 wins. They've got the Pistons, Hawks, Mavs, and injured Celtics on this home stand which could all be wins. And on the road they have to face the Suns and Grizz who are deep in the tank. Their Rockets game to end the season could be a win for the same reason the Nets could beat Boston. The young players aren't concerned about tanking.

When did McCaw get back?

Houston at Portland tomorrow on TNT.

That is a game worth staying up for

I guess he's a shoo-in HOFer, without a title...won't be the only one of course

Warriors got to play the way the Spurs have had to play ALL SEASON LONG

1 all-star (Aldridge/Green) + a collection of spare parts guys most not considered as starting material on any team.

Every single night the Spurs have had to roll out that team.

I am starting to think their 41 wins is a staggering over-achievement.

He's a problem for anyone when healthy and engaged.

If nothing else, these injuries have tightened the rotation.
I think that helps.
Rotating 9-10 guys is rough.

I was.
It was one of the better games I've ever seen.
Both teams going at it hard, for 58 minutes.

Lot's of bad calls , both ways, but that's how it goes.
The Plumlee foul was terrible. He never touched him.

I hope the Heat finish w/ a better record than the 76ers & the Cavs stay in the 3 spot. A Cavs/Heat series has shit-talking written all over it.

lol, the series we been waiting YEARS for...

The playoffs will be ruined if they don't meet in the 1st round. And I even suggest that if the match up would happen that Cavs super-homer wiggy be allowed to return to SportsHoopla during the series. @trojanfan12 you know people that know people that could get this done.
