2018-2019 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Black Adam]

Never said there was a comparison between them as players (thought there is if you care to compare their first 7 or so years in the league).

IF you are truly worried about injury history I would think AD would not be "your taste".

I would be if AD was on Love's level...

KYRIE

Do you think if Green gets rightfully suspended for ball kicking Adams and the Thunder advance Durant goes to GS?

something else other than the exploding cap that changed GS' fortunes. No, I don't.

should check out their first 6-7 years in the league when each was on a bad to middling team.

You see NO struggling some to get the best deal for AD but think the cavs could move Love with no assurances he had to stay beyond this season?

Did you just compare AD to Love?

The problem for NO is that most of the teams in the market for AD don't have tradeable assets that will help the Pelicans rebuild. There is a short list of teams that make trade partners and whoever lands him will give up a ton.

Love is totally different.

Before the extension Contenders would gladly give 2 firsts and an expiring contract for Love because it helps them win this season as a short term rental. Most of those teams are less willing to take on Love because you have to commit to a 30 year old who doesn't defend for the next 4 years at $120 million.

Davis' trade value is hurt because everybody wants him for the next 5 years and he is only under contract for 1.5. Loves value is hurt because while teams might want him today, they don't want him at that price for the next 4.

Couldn't have picked a worse comparison there.

Great pre-game story on the city of Atlanta.....and MLK.

 

[Gman]

Kyrie wins the ball game...

... with defense?

LOL.

He's rather amusing....

Get a fn time out, shit

OK, but how does this deflate my original opinion...?

If they cover.....I'm off to a great start today betting wise.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Hood to the Blazers?

 

[Shanemansj13]

Looks like that got Stauskas and Baldwin back including 2 2nd rounders. Not sure how to interpret the value but I do know Hood would have not been a Cav next season

 

[DJ]

Fucking love those new Pizza Hut commercials with the guy who looks like Abe.....LOL.

 

[DJ]

This game is over. Make both FT's please.....just in case they nail a 3 at the buzzer.

 

[Mecca]

Detroit

Ouch.

Thanks for SG-A and the Bobi & Tobi show.

 

[DJ]

Mss the fucking final shot!!!!

 

[tlance]

WHy are NBA players so bad at intentional FT misses?

It isn't hard for an average shooter. Just line up a little left or right, hit the side rim and get the bounce off the backboard. The mistle off the backboard never works.

 

[DJ]

6-1 so far today.

Me either. I really liked that OKC squad too. That's probably why I'm so butthurt at the W's and Durant.

And KD is the one that blew that game 6
