2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

[WiggyRuss]

Didn't hear? Should I type louder?

its just hard for me to believe taht was what you typed after LeBron getting crucified with the Cavs for sitting games for rest.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Nothing about Barrett impresses me.

He can use both hands and good finisher.

Not efficient.
Below average 3 pt shooter
Bad ft shooter for being a guard
High turnover rate

Another Wiggins with less size

i dunno. He had 11 assists the otehr day. Great athlete- scorer.

He is a freshman. He has a lot to learn but he has elite talent.

I agree that Ja is most likely the better prospect- but if Ja was a freshman and Barret a sophomore it would def. look different.

I think Ja is def. the #2 pick at this point. But Barret is without a doubt the #3 pick and i think he is a solid #3 pick.

Here is the problem in this situation...

If he did do it, why wait until he refuses to pay your brother's tuition to report it?

Makes it look like extortion.

@msgkings322

It could be.

It also very well could be that he didn't pay because he knew she couldn't prove it and was advised not to pay.

There is a reason women often don't come forward in cases like this and it is because many people are going to point the finger at them. It is a lot easier in a many ways NOT to report it. And even when they do, there is a good chance the man will skate with no real consequence.

I don't know if Porzingas did anything wrong or not. Neither do you.

One thing I won't do is assume the accuser is lying.

 

[tlance]

That is awesome.

Kobe cheated though. The camera angle made into look like the ball fake wasn't right in his face. It wasn't.

$20 says this lady never even saw the ball and had no idea what happened.

 

[tlance]

Did you see Milwaukee's lineup today?

Sorry, but the Hawks should have beat that team by 30. Great shot, but Not that impressed by this game.

I'm assuming nothing, either one could be lying

 

[WiggyRuss]

Not 'look like', that's what it is. That's why they reported it to the NBA, that's why the NBA hasn't done anything, that's why the NYPD is not treating it like a simple case. It's almost certainly a girl trying to cash in.

If I'm an NBA guy getting some, I think I'd always pull out my phone before and tell the girl to say into the camera that she's happily about to go to town on me. Once she does that it's all good and if she doesn't, walk away.

not only that, but in America there is a presumption of innocence to the defense--- and the burden is on the prosecution.

 

[tlance]

LOL @WiggyRuss and the neverending string of rainbows.

Here is who did not play for Milwaukee tonight.

Giannis
Bledsoe
Middleton
Brogdon
Mirotec
Snell

Here is who started for them:

Lopez
Bonzie Colson
DJ Wilson
Tim Frazier
Sterling Brown

Young shot terribly, and everyone has those games. But no excuse for that game being close when ATL had most of their main guys.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Lakers are 4-6 in their last 10 games.

if they were 0/10 in their last 10 games they would be TIED for the 7th seed in the lotto-

instead they are tied for the 12th seed in the lotto

7 seed in the lotto has a 32% chance at a top 4 pick

12th seed has about a 7.5% chance at a top 4 pick.

 

[DJ Fieri]

No James, BI, Kuz, Ball or Hart and we win by 28.

McGee, Rondo, and Caruso balled out. All 3 got 20-plus points.

Caruso needs an ice bath after hitting the floor 3-4 times on apparent charges.

Tanking is a quitters mentality.

I guess that's what Cavs fans are used to.

[DJ Fieri]

How dare they earn their paycheck?

LOL.

hey, if your win led by Alex Caruso means so much to you in a lost season where the game absolutely means nothing- so be it.

You dont have anthony davis because you didnt have an elite prospect to trade for him.

A 32% chance to go up and get a Ja or a Barrett or even a Zion to be the center piece of a Davis deal?

OR

Alex Caruso and co. getting a few more wins and practically guaranteeing you a middling prospect.

have fun with that.

enjoy your handful of extra wins that mean NOTHING.

 

[Shanemansj13]

So you want Morant I assume if Cavs get the #2 pick?

Yeah I would prefer Morant. Zion is light years ahead of Morant. I would actually prefer other guys than Barrett..Reddish being one of them. A couple others guys too, that are projected a little later.

I could be way off but I would be pretty disappointed if the Cavs got RJ

plus, what makes it even funnier is that i doubt ANY of MCgee, Rondo or Caruso are even Lakers next year. LOL

talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

I think Ja is def. the #2 pick at this point. But Barret is without a doubt the #3 pick and i think he is a solid #3 pick.

I just see him being another Wiggins and more of a team guy. The assists number definitely help him having Zion next to him, like I said I could be way off but he is the one guy at the top that I think will be so much lower than Morant, Zion and even some other guys when all said and done

Question is if they get 3rd then who do you want?

 

[bksballer89]

Good win for the Kings @Bolts

 

[Bolts]

Good win for the Kings @Bolts

Playoff chances are gone but them beating the Spurs in a road B2B is still good to see. First series sweep over them in franchise history. Take that Pop!

Damn....
