2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

[Black Adam]

That's the go-to move to discredit your championships.

Shit will get 10 times worse if you ever catch the Celtics.

the O'Briens all have Lakers on them...

that, AND the record book, settles the argument...

 

[trojanfan12]

tf12, a buck 30 left in the game and the Rockets are down 7. 3 guesses who goes into hero ball mode...?

Both. And that's the problem. lol

 

[Mecca]

seriously...?

lmfao haters gonna hate...

Oh, y'all better hope the Clippers never win with Kawhi.

1st player to lead 3 different teams to a championship.

I'm totally shitting all over LeBron if Kawhi gets there first.

I'm certain, in the next 3 years, either LeBron or Kawhi will do it.

Additionally, how far away does a team have to move in order to discredit their championships?

The Warriors moved 18 miles West from Oracle in Oakland to the Chase Center in San Francisco. Does that count too? LOL

and i'd be totally cool with your team finally getting an O'Brien...




















...if you weren't following the Clippers...

Yep.

You're #2.

Better than having a goose egg.

But, the Celtics still hold the crown.

The Minny titles is as stupid a argument as some make about the Celtics winning several in the early years, with fewer teams,and lower talent.

Still counts.

Its very very possible.

Where would that rank Kawhi on the all-time list if he does it and Lebron doesn't?

lol, back on the CBS boards some of the Celtic fans tried that argument(and the idiot trolls, of course)...

"the Lakers are gonna catch up with titles, what're we gonna do? oh wait, i know..."

Ugh.....

Still out of the top 15....imo

He needs longevity.

5 more years, as a top 10 player, or 2 more tiles as the man, and I will reevaluate.

Championships are the deciding factor when everything else is even.

Karl Malone was a better scorer, Duncan a better defender.

They are 1a and 1b for best PF of all time.

Timmy's hand full of rings puts him in the lead.

Kawhi has not had a better career than LeBron.

I don't think he's even in the Bird conversation yet.

Need him to win a regular season MVP or two, too.

Won't make the top 10-15 without one of those.

But he's still only 28 so plenty of time

Shit, you are right.

But, 3 Finals MVP'S would be hard to dismiss.

yep...

all begins tomorrow. and for once in a pretty decent while we don't have to pencil in 2 teams in the finals...

gonna be interesting. and i'm hoping injuries are kept to a minimum...

Out of curiosity, I looked up the best players to never win a MVP and I think he would still have a shot at top 20, if he continues to dominate, while never winning a regular season MVP.

Bad Boys Thomas, Jason Kid, Ewing, D Wade, Jerry West.....

That's crazy.

I think if Kawhi win a title with the Clips but never wins an MVP he still has a great shot at a top 20 spot but probably not top 10

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Can I also point out that the National TV schedule for the first week is CRAZY!

Pelicans v Raptors as the first game has lost its shine with Zion out though

[Hambombs]

Well, that does make the Blake Griffin comparisons fit even better

I don't think he will be as good as Blake

 

[wildturkey]

It's Tuesday. The regular season is finally here!

@Mecca I hope you're ready for this beatdown tonight

 

[The Derski]

I don’t care if the suns suck I’m hyped.

 

[Bolts]

Go Kings, time to finally break the playoff drought. And it's good to see Buddy's extension issues get settled so that doesn't linger on throughout the season.
