2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

And now that I think about it.....I think Shield got whacked. He went to another part of tHoop and it got pretty dicey.

That sucks.

The Rockets already lost to the cavs this year

Yet, they are still vastly superior in every way imaginable.

Just not the scoreboard, huh

Either are the lakers tho..

It seems like you are implying that the Lakers are tanking?

You are new, so I will give you the benefit of the doubt. But damn. This post doesn't even make sense.

What i am saying is the lakers should tank this year.

Wow.

Yep. You just proved it.

Nobody here is going to take your opinion seriously after that bombshell.

Tank for what? The 12th pick?

Nice strategy.

The lakers only have 4 more wins than the 2nd to last place team in the west

Why do you assume it would be the 12th pick?

Why do you also assume even if it was the 12th pick that it wouldn't hold any value to trade?

What is the benefit to not tanking this year?

I just cut you down like i cut down taxes this year!

@Paul Ryan is @lebron23james ?

Or just similarly trolly?

LOL. So you are actually serious?

They have 23 wins already and LeBron James on their roster. Not a possibilty.

Look, I am always one of the first to say that teams should tank when they aren't. This isn't the time for that. Lakers need to win at a decent clip to attract the best FA they can get. And the difference between the 12th pick and the 20th isn't worth tanking for.

The pick is valuable to trade.

The pick is valuable to trade.

Not nearly as valuable as you think.

Pick 20 has value too.

And no way in hell LeBron lets them tank.

OKC is Wiggy's "other team."

I don't see how he can possibly call himself a Cleveland fan then.

Now, if OKC was his "other other team", that would be ok. But not when they're his "other team".

Big RW hog hunter that guy....SMH.

Good call. Might be an alt here.

If it is, both accounts will likely be permabanned.

The mid first round (10-19) is much more a crap shoot with as many busts as stars.

Late first round (20-30) only 6% of picks become stars, and less than half even make it to role player caliber stats.

Yeah, LebronJames23 might have been banned.....he was trolling hard recently.
