Seth Curry is the player who tested positive

Damn....he balling. He is exactly what they needed after Redick left. A sniper from beyond the arc.

 

[DJ Fieri]

The shit with Irving is starting pretty soon...LOL.

SPURS look relatively good with Aldridge.

4-1 with him, including tonights Laker win
0-3 without him, 2 Laker losses

Small sample size...but somewhat interesting

and they just smoked the Jazz with no Durant and Kyrie palying out of his mind.


off the court Kyrie is a lunatic

on the court he is one of the most talented basketball players in the league and is basically unstoppable with the ball in his hands.

All true.

And you continue to severely underestimate the impact of his lunacy on his teams.

Chemistry matters.

All that said, Brooklyn is still good enough to contend for a title.

 

[tlance]

Haven’t been around much, but in 3 minutes I can Wiggy hasn’t changed, except he came out of hiding.
Nance is whatever.
Winslow is a running joke.

Yeah. You guys are wrong on this.

Nance has developed into a pretty good player. He is legitimately better than Kevin Love at this point.

Winslow isn’t a young up and coming player with potential anymore. Nance has surpassed him.

He’s an idiot, but with the ball in his hands he is the only guy in the league that even remotely gives me Kobe flashbacks.

 

[Shanemansj13]

yah i was shocked when i saw that

grizz are missing 60% of their starting lineup with Morant, JJJ and Winslow out though.

Cavs front court, even with Love missing is no joke with Nance and Drummond.

Winslow starts? Yikes

 

[DJ Fieri]

LaMelo Ball's first few games weren't very good but he's been playing well since.

11.8ppg, 5.1rpg, 4.9apg, and 1.6spg in just 24mpg.

He needs to improve his shooting (40.5%, 34.3 and 73.7) but he's young and has time.

 

[bksballer89]

Winslow starts? Yikes

Well he never played a game for them so we really dont know

they beat Portland at home.

Their other 3 wins are against Sacramento, Chicago and Detroit.

id slow the bus down.

Reading is fundamental.

They split against Portland.

They beat who they should. They lost to who they should. It wasn't a declaration of awesomeness. LOL. I said it's where they should be.

Nance is a better shooter, rebounder, shot blocker, steals guy, better team guy on the court and off, and is a leader. Not only that- but Winslow was a "part time" PG that had a TO/APG ration of barely 2-1. As far as passing talent goes- out of the PF position- Nance is better.

The Cavs had dick tonight - had every excuse to layover on the 2nd night of a back to back on the road with half their roster out and Nance goes out there with 18 pts, 4/4 on threes, 4 assists, 3 steals and is the complete player on the court for either team.

Larry Nance would be a very nice 8th or 9th man on a very good team.

What do you think the Spurs do this season in terms of moving guys around. You have a ton of expirings. Spurs going to blow it up and trade Aldridge, Derozan and Gay away?

I think they will wait and see until about the 35-40 game mark.

The SPURS have a giant pile of young talent like they havent had in years. I am not sure they even know what to do with so many young guys.

Murray and White are signed long term. The other youngsters have a few years of rookie deals.

If that talents develops fast enough, than they might keep the veterans around and see what happens.

If not, they will stockpile even more assets with those trade pieces.

They will have a ton of good options regardless. I am cautiously optimistic.

hed be the #1 big man on the Warriors at this point.

And as you said, the Warriors aren't a very good team yet.

A solid role player.

This guy is a moron.....I'm almost sure every player in the NBA is mad about those things too but yet they find a way to not miss work.

Missing your job and not being there for your teammates about things that's out of your control is really weird
