2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

I think you are being generous on both counts for Hart. Starks made an allstar team and was the second leading scorer on a contending caliber team.

The floor for Hart and Kuzma is what they are now. It is possible that both are currently producing at or near peak levels.

I think Hart could develop into a Starks level, fringe all star player as his absolute ceiling. Most likely though, he will be a high quality bench player or a 4th or 5th starter.

Kuzma has similar upside, IMO, but with a bit higher floor than Hart. I say that mostly because I think he is already a very solid starting caliber player.

I don't think All Star games are in the future for either, but Kuzma is more likely because he has the superior offensive game.

we actually agree on something?

thats why I said Anderson and Ariza seemed like good comparisons. Ariza is that prototypical 3 and d periemter guy that I see a lot of Hart---- and Kuzma has a great offensive game- more of a floor game and more athleticism than Anderson but not quite the pure 3 pt shooter.

Mecca said Rashard Lewis for Kuzma- which isnt bad but i think at his peak Lewis made a couple all star teams.

Another reclamation project for the team in the midst of their current turmoil. There needs to be some humor in that locker room since both Javale and Swaggy are gone.

I hate you.























Not really.

@DJ ,@WiggyRuss , @tlance , @trojanfan12 , @bksballer89

I'm curious to know what you think is the absolute ceiling, floor for Hart and Kuz?

I think Kuz's ceiling is Shareef Abdur-Rahim.

Floor is Cedric Ceballos, Rex Chapman.


Hart....Dumars ceiling...which is being very generous.

Floor, John Starks.

Those are pretty good floors considering where they were picked.

John Starks seems okay.....I think he'd be closer to Byron Scott....

 

[DJ Fieri]

Yeah, those seem pretty accurate.

I was talking to a buddy of mine about that and he suggested Hart as a Byron Scott type.

A little harder to say with Kuz. His athleticism gives him a higher ceiling than Hart, imo.

Chilling listening to 2 SoCal legends....one is a rapper and the other is a legendary DJ here in CA.

Miracles do happen

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Lmao I'm done. The entire training staff seriously must go

This is just.....ridiculous.

How?

This is beyond Malidicion de Los Clippers.

We have more injuries than your average NFL team. The fuck is going on over there?

@tlance

Come on, this is just embarrassing.

The Wiz aren't even trying.

Just blow this Shit up.

On the bright side, if any team will allow you to overcome a large lead, it's the Clippers.

Reports are that Grunfield's preference is to make minor moves and build around Wall and Beal.

How does this man still have a job?

I don't know who I hate more. Grunfield or Bruce Allen?

At least the Caps are good. Then again, I don't watch hockey.

I'm not sure if this team played a game being completely healthy since march of 2017.....and I'm being so serious

Wiz down 19 at home. Blow it up

How do you get rid of Wall, who seems to be the main problem?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Suns or Magic are their only hope.

Unless they are willing to eat bad contracts.

Brooks too.

Some folks aren't meant to be the head guy.

Brooks is one of them.

They need to can him. But, I bet he'd be a top assistant on a team with Veteran talent.

This is not his fault.

It's the dumb ass who hired him knowing the personalities in that locker room.

Still, he has to go.

Sadly, Beal is the most likely guy to get dealt.

He's the only one with real value.

Otto is probably much better than his stats suggest.

Wall and Beal are suppressing his output.

But, who's gonna roll the dice on that much long-term money?

If Jerry wasn't in the front office or Doc had the final say in personnel moves, I'd be terrified we'd empty the cupboard for Wall.

That would be such a Clippers move to make...lol

It is incredible.

I gotta say though, the Miami Vice unis are so fuckin cool. I know you'd rather have shit unis and a healthy team but hey, it's entertainment too and those unis are sick.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The Clippers are up 9 on the Wiz at the end of the 3rd quarter......very few seconds left....

 

[flyerhawk]

Maybe the Suns would take on that contract. Can't see Orlando doing it but maybe.

 

[msgkings322]

Love watching the Knicks being feisty. Of the bad teams, they are not the worst at all. Kinda fun to watch too.
