2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

[The Derski]

I’d like to publicly backtrack most of my Paul George criticism. I’ve always said he was an overhyped wannabe top tier player. This change of scenery and somehow good chemistry with Russ is apparently working wonders for him. He is playing like a top 10 guy. He should be option A on OKC in crunch time not Russ.

Ya gotta love this forum.

Lmfao

I like playing whack a Mole.

What your excuse for throwing a tit fit when and being full on tard?

My notifications are littered with your responses...lmfao

I already did this 2 months ago.

That guy is killing it.

He is currently option A

You should probably just make your default, "I really cannot refute what you said so I will deflect instead with a number of blathering comments that are mostly irrelevant to the topic at hand"

You should make yours...

" Fuck, she debunked me again. Let me see if I have the strength to lift this goal post again, with her foot firmly lodged up my ass"

As he should be. I feel like Russ has a different opinion though.

"Tard card" seems beneath you, but maybe not.

My excuse? I get amusement from the irrational, even when I know all they have in them is lies, deflection and distortion.

Dance.

I mean if you been watching them at all this season you would see that he has been more than willing to give that to pg 13

Hilarious all the hate russ gets on here when he's been a great teammate ever since he been in the league

I have been watching and I have noticed Russ actually deferring to PG more than he ever did to KD.

At the end of the day you can take the dog out of the fight, but you can’t take the fight out of the dog.
Russ is Russ.

I think he's a bit confused by how poorly he's shooting. He may be losing a bit of aggressiveness as a result.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I always stuck up for PG13 so none of this surprises me. He was a beast in Indiana especially in some of those playoff series against Cleveland

 

[tlance]

Last one for me.....only one of those I recall getting any real run before it went down was Kevin Love. Only signs of Kawhi to Toronto or Kyrie to Boston that I can recall is they were players who asked to be dealt and Toronto and Boston are among the 30 NBA teams where they could have been dealt.

For sure in the last 2-3 years these deals seem to come out of left field for us (which I like). Porzingis, Cousins and PG (as you mentioned). I don't even know any Cavs fans who saw last year's deadline deals coming. Other biggies were Kyrie and Kawhi. Even if you want to believe we had an inkling about Kyrie and Kawhi (Toronto? Really?). my comment stands....we were clueless on the majority of deals that went down.

And lets add Harris to that, as well.

Done.

I mean, I guess it depends on yours time frame.

Were the Kyrie and Kawhi deals known weeks before like the Love deal?

Of course not. But it was definitely reported that the 2 teams involved were engaged in serious negotiations at least a day before the deals got finalized.

And the Cavs deadline deals last year were not biggies.

Dance.

Dancing? Jimmy Jam loves to dance. Watch him get his grooooooove on.

I call you a tard for clarity's sake.

Judging by your posts, questioning if you had Asperger Syndrome would have been waaaaaaay over your head.

This is the last time I'm responding to this nonsense.

Your post...

I like Woj more than most of the alleged insiders, but let's be honest. We could do their job for the most part. They are not held accountable for anything and could make up reports if they wanted. Pretty sure they do.

.

You got caught talking out of your ass.

So, now you want to move the goal posts and say they don't break every deal....lmfao

You do get Davis has said he never gave any terms to NO on where he needed to go? Said they need to do what's best for them and if they want him on the court that's where he will be.

He should have said unnamed sources told him this.

And, yes, he did guess on the list, as even Davis said it wasn't his list. All you did was prove my point. They guessed.

Oh my.

All this is true, probably the list, too. But AD didn't mention a list, did he?

Lmfao!

Allllllllllllll wrong...lol

I've seen that from many here.

To me, I've always thought the best posters are those who will admit if they are wrong, answer direct questions and base their replies on the post. Not the poster.

* stares in stunned silence *

In fact, when I make mistakes I own up to them. When your pearls of wisdom are refuted with fact you come up with posts like the one above.

I'm dead...lol

...and this is why you need to either change your name to Pennywise, Ronald McDonald or delete your account, Clown....lol

Even as a Cavs' fan I don't recall hearing anything about Kyrie going to Boston until it was done. Can't say I heard anything about Kawhi and Toronto, but obviously I don't follow Toronto as closely.

Agree the deadline deals were smaller deals.

wow...most of those posts proved what I was saying all along. Oh, the comedy. Most comical was the davis one where I told you what Davis, himself, had said which was in contrary to the insiders reports. Never mind Davis says there's a list.....there's no list......Boston is on it....Boston is not on it.

Nothing you have said has proven I am wrong here. It was opinion, and based on factual info.

They tell us about trade rumors, and most don't go down. Then trades no one expected go down and surprise us. And oh my...they tell us about draft picks AFTER teams decide who they are taking. Stop the presses.

Never said I don't like Woj and will agree is he far better than his brethren who do what he does in the NFL.

Davis contradicted himself multiple times. The reporters commenting on it don't look bad, Davis does.

I don't disagree with this, but I have to say I never saw Davis say anything until well after the reporters told us what he said through unnamed sources......not from Davis mouth (or tweet).
