2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

It would be funny. Spent all those years in Cleveland where he didn't have a soul (the first time around), but he made the playoffs every year since his rookie year. Goes to Lakers and doesn't make playoffs. You can't make this shit up if you tried LOL

I would enjoy seeing a 1 vs 8 matchup vs the W's though

Actually, he didn't make it in his 2nd season either. But then, you've never been one to let facts get in the way your butthurt.

Dame just painted himself into a corner.....AGAIN.

I hope he proves me wrong about requesting a trade soon.

So within the next 10 years? @TurnUpTheHeat

I really hope this happens.

Then I will laugh my ass off when they fail. Don't think Kyrie and KD are the ideal candidates to change the horrible organizational culture that has defined Knick basketball over the past decade.

At least KD got his rings in GS.

I think it's hilarious that the NBA threatened to fine the Pelicans.

Over the past few years, Jr Smith, Deng, Noah, Kanter, Parker have all been healthy scratches or banished from the team.

Yet, nobody got fined.

Well, none of those guys have anywhere near the impact AD has.

Hell, one could argue that playing a couple of those guys would actually help the tank.

I think it may have been Cowherd or one of his guests that made an interesting point about that today.

Either he or his guest made an interesting point. Basically, the point was that while going to New York seems great, they still have the same owner and that is the problem. Said that players don't want to play for a bad owner regardless of what city they are in.

While I'm not sure I agree 100%, I do know that the Lakers couldn't get (or keep) anyone when Short Buss was running things and got Lebron as soon as he was gone.

Same. My only issue with Russ is his shot selection at times but I have nothing bad to say about him as a teammate.

I agree and disagree at the same time.

Because shot selection is a big part of being a good teammate. Russ does seem like a good teammate in a lot of ways. But that selfish streak counts against him too.

While he has the same killer mentality as Kobe or MJ, he just isn't skilled enough as a shooter to play that way. And when he does, he often hurts his team.

good luck with that.....

Okay you dn't think the lottery has ever been rigged. A suggestion. Start a thread asking NBA fans if they think it's ever been rigged. I'd bet money more people would say that's happened than would say it hasn't.

And you really went out on a limb saying the Spurs weren't a lottery team much between '87 & '97. Actually they were a lottery team only once in that period, in '88 the year before Robinson arrived.

Oh, I don't have to start a poll. I know for a fact people think the lottery has been rigged.

I just don't find it plausible. Way too much to lose for the league to actually do it.

And for every case that looks like it could have been rigged, there are 3-4 that obviously weren't. Which tells me that sometimes it just works out that the obvious team hits #1. And sometimes they should.

So the Knicks "win" the lottery, get Zion, get Kyrie, and get KD. Trying to get a Lakers/Knicks Finals going

@DJ

I sure hope her face is pretty.

See that hand?? Yeah, that's Kyle Kuzma's hand ... and now you wish you were Kyle Kuzma.

The 23-year-old Lakers star is getting some well-deserved R&R before the All-Star break ends ... taking a boat trip in Miami with an insanely attractive model ... and cuppin' a handful of ass in the process.

Kuz -- who won the MVP of the Rising Stars Challenge this past weekend -- kept the winning going on Monday with rumored girlfriend Katya Elise Henry ... a model with nearly 6 million followers on IG.

With a body like that, not sure it matters what her face looks like.

well, I wouldn't say that, coach...

maybe that's just me, though...

Not according to @DJ.

I'm a girl and even I know he's Cray Cray.

Unless she has a face like a foot, which she absolutely does not, she won't be lacking for suitors.

Only problem I see from these so called " Instagram Models " is the fact that they leave nothing to the imagination.

To each his own.

But, I'd whip my daughter's ass.

OKC vs. Spurs is the only one I wouldn't go out of my way to watch.

If I'm home, I'm definitely tunning in, unless Game of Thrones is on.

But, I wouldn't go into road rage if I was stuck on the Fwy.

I'm just messing with @DJ.

Don't want to misquote him.

But, he said something to the effect of....

You can only hit it from the back for so long before you have to flip her over and look at her mug.
