2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

Yeah, you are right.

I was speaking more to the fact that they both dominate the ball and are 75 % of the offense.

Again, you are correct and that was a Shit example because Iverson paid a heavy price to get to the charity stripe.

Iverson was exciting to watch, plain and simple. Harden is not.

I think it's how disconnected (to sum it up with one word) Harden is when he doesn't have the ball on offense... one can clearly see that he just doesn't have his heart in it.

Iverson was all grit and balls and effort on the court.

Yup.

You guys are correct.

I see there's been some Lonzo B. Ballin' talk. I find it odd that when I mentioned his FT% when he was a Laker some defended it by saying he didn't get to the line enough & that's why his % is bad.

Lonzo (# 2 pick) & Tristan (# 4) pick. Many have said the Cavs were foolish taking him # 4 yet the Lakers gotta pass for using that # 2 pick on a PG that can't shoot or hit his FT's.


Funny stuff.

People are usually protective of one of their own.

But, it's time to call a spade a spade.

* wonders if I'm allowed to use that term in 2020 *

As for Tristan, Cavs won a title with him.

I still say they picked the wrong Thompson * See Klay*.

But, Cavs fans should be cool with the result.

He's turned into MCW 2.0. It's unfortunate. At least he's good on the defensive side of the ball. That should help him remain in the league for a while. Maybe he can eventually turn into Ricky Rubio, but even for as poor of a shooter Rubio is, he's a career 83% free throw shooter.

As long as we can stop with the Jason Kidd nonsense, I'm onboard.

I think everyone forgets how good peak J-Kidd was. He was as dominant of a guard at controlling the game as you'll ever see. Kidd was amazing. I'm in agreement, and I think those comparisons are dead.

When fans are protective of a player on their team that can't shoot I call that homerism. For once I wasn't taking any shots at the Lakers. I was (and still do) judge Lonzo by his awful shooting #'s. But I judge all NBAers by their career #'s. Crazy huh?

I still believe Patrick O'Bryant is just biding his time for a massive comeback.

Talking about a massive comeback that's what I'm expecting outta Anthony Bennett this season.

Drummond on the block

 

[trojanfan12]

Hey, man....

Y'all need to scoop up Collison post haste.

He'd be a starter for you. But, 3rd string for the Clippers.

I was actually surprised that he retired.

Guy can still play. Unfortunately, all his best years came as someone else's back up.

Yeah, I hope they can get him. He'd be a great pickup for them.

works for me. Guys who most would have considered at 4 for Cavs were not better options. Could argue JV, but signing him was no lock.

Had Klay gone 5-8? That's a different story.

Not sure if this was already posted...but,

Nice gesture by the league.....

Here we go again

 

[tducey]

Heard about Drummond to the Hawks earlier today. They have some good young talent on that team so it might be a good pickup for them.

 

[HurricaneDij39]

Uh, did you move to California recently?

Or perhaps became a Lakers fan?

I only ask because according to @HurricaneDij39 only Lakers fans and people from California don't like Harden.

That's because bk is the biggest naive idiot in the history of message boards.

Why do you sell yourself short like that?
