2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

McGee is the easy one.

He's not the only one that got that wrong.

But, he's the only one yet to admit it.

@WiggyRuss

If it makes you feel any better, I was wrong, you were right, about Ingram scoring 18-20 ppg.

#ItDidntKillMe

in all seriousness we shall see. We are just over 2 months into the season at this point.

McGee has basically been a non-factor from '12-'13 to '17-'18. While he has without a doubt done much better thus far than i expected- i think we can chalk that up to a few things- 1. Opportunity- when the other options are Mo Wagner and Zubac- you are going to get al ot of PT 2. LEBron- obviously helps him a ton. 3. Maybe he has matured after being on a team like the Warriors and seeing how things should be done- along with aging a little bit and maturing.

After 6-7 years of being a nobody he has without a doubt- arguably been the Lakers 2nd best player (which is equal parts funny and sad).

While it definitely looks like McGee will have a MUCH MUCH better season than I ever expected him to--- after just 2 months of the season against 6-7 years I am going to hold off AT LEAST until we are at the halfway mark.

Love me some Luka.

But, does anyone still doubt Jaren Jackson Jr. could be the best player in this draft class?

When its all said and done, Luka may be the only player better.

....and that's a maaaaaaybe.

I was the first one on Luka.....he is just unreal.

I wish the Cavs somehow could have gotten him or JJJ but it was not to be.

Bamba has been a little disapointing thus far- but Orlando has some wacky things going coaching wise- they are really bringing along Isaac and Bamba very slowly---- big men often do seem to take a lot more time to develop than do guards in the NBA.

Seems like playmakers and scorers can come into the league and impact right away---- big men it seems like it takes a lot longer to get adjusted to- which makes sense i suppose.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Yep just as I thought.

Wiggy gonna Wiggy.

I was just as right about Patrick McCaw as I was about JaVale McGee. No amount of semantical BS from you will ever change that.

Maybe someday you will learn not to make grandstanding close minded comments about players you don't even know that much about. But I doubt it, because you are too arrogant to learn from your past mistakes.

So keep making yourself look foolish. It is a lot of fun to watch you self destruct.

you can try and convince yourself that a guy playing 12 minutes a night and 10th on the team in minutes is in the "rotation"....not too many playoff rotations i know of go 10 guys deep though. lol

cmon- arent there some 8th graders that need coaching? lol

please tell us how a point guard shooting under 40% from the field and under 50% from the free throw line would start on half the teams in the NBA. cmon PLEASE. lol

That is funny.

All I am going to say about that.

Yes yes we all get what you are up to. Admit one of your many errors and maybe I'll give you something in return.

You know who the most badass dudes in America are? The ones who go on anonymous message boards and talk about their fantasy teams. Those guys get all the chicks.

I have done this. And you don't learn.

Because you have such a crazed obsession with me that you look for any opportunity to try and show me up. The hysterical thing is that you go to such amazing lengths to twist the things that I say that you just end up making yourself look like a complete tool.

Comments like:

"I am surprised McCaw didn't play at on opening night, his defense could have helped".

Or:

"McGee was always an efficient scorer in limited minutes with GS, he could get close to double figures in an expanded role with the Lakers".

And you just back yourself so damn far into the corner with your sensational replies. When the really funny thing is that in both cases, there was no way for me to be wrong. Just like the current Ball conversation.

But carry on.

 

[trojanfan12]

when you have to say you have done something- it just shows a huge amount of insecurity.

A little.

Rehashing the same 2 conversations almost verbatim gets a little old after awhile. Kind of want a better challenge.
