2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

I'd still take KCP 8 but his defense from the 15/16 season has been MIA for three years. I question whether his head is always in it and his stats read that out

The guy I wouldn't want, mostly because of his salary, is Hardaway Jr.

He's a Ricky Davis, JR Rider type player without the criminality.

You don't near max those kinda guys.

ehhh rudy gay was prob a better athlete at that age

Can't help but slam a Laker, huh? LOL.

I can see Ball somewhat but Ingram? Guy has been balling this season and especially since James has been out.

 

[DJ Fieri]

25 days in a 6 month season is a lot of time? Let's not make shit up now.

He went to jail in mid December of 2017 and was released on January 8th, 2018.

BOOM.






But, Wiggy's expertise is making stuff up.

 

[WiggyRuss]

NBA regular season starts in mid October and doesn't end until mid April.

KCP was sentenced to 25 days and most importantly ALLOWED to practice and play in all Lakers games that took place in the state of California during this time period.

A little research does help instead of coming on here looking like a clown.

for fucks sake- how many palyersi n NBA history were in jail DURING A regular season?

I just remembered the moron was in contempt of court and had to be released from jail to go to games and went back to jail after games were over

just think about that. lol.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Wiggins 2.0 except Wiggins had his breakout season when he was 21

Ingram is a better passer and rebounder. And more efficient. He's shooting 47% and Wiggins is barely over 40%.

LETS GO RAPTORS

 

[Sparhawk]

Yes, he didn't come to the NBA until both his knees were cooked.

He would have been a better version of Jokic.

Seriously, no exaggeration.

One of these days we need to start a thread on the best ever International starting 5 thread.

Hmmm....now looking over the 2013 draft...

Bennett
Oladipo
Porter
Len
Zeller
Noel
McLemore
KCP
McCallum
MCW
Adams
Olynyk
Shabazz
Giannis

Then you have Schroeder, Gobert, Roberson, Hardaway


Pretty bad overall draft but a couple teams crushed it


Weird draft

Man Steven Adams was a steal.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Man Steven Adams was a steal.

You got Roberson also in that shit draft

 

[bksballer89]

Man Steven Adams was a steal.

And remember KD ridiculous tweet that night?

You just made it seem like he missed a shit ton of time. He missed 8 games total

 

[WiggyRuss]

Adams is awesome.

He is one of the few centers that can really guard the perimeter at a big time level.

Thunder are an interesting team. I mean- Golden State deserves their favorite status but ya never know- a sprained ankle here- in team squabbling there, a team gets hot- and things can happen.

I hope Roberson gets back at some point- he would be a nice role player to give 20-25 minutes to and could make a difference.

Not sure what your definition of balling is...grabbing more rebounds? He is basically playing the same as he has all season.

He is averaging 19, 7 and 4 in the past 4.
He is averaging 16, 5 and 3 on the season.

That is far from "balling". I know it is a short stint but for people saying Lebron was holding back this learning curve for Ball and Ingram is just stupid. They should be thriving with Lebron, I could understand Ball bc it is a transition to the way he has played in the past but Ingram should be thriving. He is playing pretty good but far from balling.

That would be fun.

He shot 45% two years ago, he has regressed...for the Lakers sake lets hope Ingram doesn't do the same and "get comfortable with his game".

If Sabonis had come over to the NBA in his prime....he would have been sick.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I actually like Ingram...he has WAY more upside than Ball. I always thought he was like a mini-KD. It just seems like with his reach and if he learns to beef up his body just a bit and use that reach to his advantage he could get any shot he wanted like KD, Giannis, etc. I think this year and next will be the turning point...we will see the type of progression and type of player he wants to be. I mean just the shot selection he takes sometimes is like wtf...the thing is he is capable of making tough shots and those wtf shots bc of his crazy reach and lanky body.

About the CFB national title game in California. This is what Michael Wilbon said on PTI- SEC people look @ Cali & think it's in S.E. Asia & they can't figure out how to get there w/o an RV.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Bol Bol is expected to be drafted around 5th.....anybody think he'll be anything special in the NBA?
