2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

These refs are atrocious.

 

[ManuForever]

Fuck you Lou Williams. Fuck you Patty Mills.

 

[ManuForever]

That wasn't a foul. Refs really helping the Clippers tonight.

@Heatles84 @bksballer89

If playoffs started tomorrow it would be Heat/Cavs.
You guys think Bucks/Wiz will avoid Cavs if they can?

Yes

 

[Sparhawk]

Only 3 teams with more losses currently

Speaking from experience, I found it to be more fun watching the bottom of the standings than the top.....

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Where is our Resident Raptors fan?

Me or the guy on glue?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

I'm just so happy for Lowry that he got to go watch a college team win a game half way across the continent on Monday night. That 2-11 shooting performance and letting fucking Calderon walk all over your stupid ass sure made it worth it.

Whoever decided to let him go to that game should get shitcanned. You're in a battle for first place and facing the best player in the game there is literally no excuse to let the guy you pay $30 mil+ to shirk his duties.

Yeah I have no idea why they would allow that. Just silly

Where the heck has that soon to be Lakers fan @gordontrue been?

shopping for lakers gear

 

[gordontrue]

We should all be Sixers fans. If they win out then they're the 6th seed.

They'll be tough as hell but give me anything but LBJ in round 1

You mean if the 76ers win out they'll be the 3 seed?

I'm honestly not sure what path I prefer between Pacers/Raptors or Heat/Celtics

Yeah that's what I meant lol.

If I'm you, I would prefer any route that include the Raptors in round 2 lol. That team is so scared of the Cavs. I trust Kyrie in a series much more than DeRozan and especially Lowry.

Also Stevens>Casey

Yeah, and the Heat and Celtics both offer worse-case scenarios for LeBron legacy wise.

Have to think Celtics (Kyrie) is the very last team LeBron would want to get bounced by this year. And the heat are probably the 2nd-to-last.

 

[bksballer89]

Russ needs 41 rebounds in final 3 games to avg a triple double.

Can he do it?

Don't know.

But I bet he tries. Going to be giving Stephen Adams the stink eye every time he gets a defensive board anywhere near Russ.

Assuming the Raptors feel they can hold onto the #1 seed, maybe they prefer the Cavs to keep winning to secure the #3, so they avoid them in probable round 2?

bad time for that team to be focused on anything but getting in the playoffs

South Florida sports are shit. Riley is a god for keeping the Heat competitive.

It's amazing how he's managed to do that despite "being old, the game passing him by and having lost something off his fastball".
