2021 NBA regular season thread

The Rockets were 3-6 with Harden and in the 1st game without him.....they beat a pretty solid Spurs team.....LOL.

same thing has happened in the NFL---- has effed the Browns over horribly

but when you have 15 man rosters the effects get amplified even more.

i know the NFL had players were trackers all around the facility to determine if they were "high risk contacts". I am assuming the NBA does the same.

Really- you basically cant practice right now because if you do basically everyone is a high risk contact. It sucks.

NBA needed to expand rosters to 20-22 players.

Players 16-22 would have been all 2 way players. Baseball and football both expanded rosters but in the middle of a pandemic, the NBA thought it was a good idea to not do the same

It's just terrible in the NBA. The Sixers against the Nuggets was just a huge waste of time. The Heat tonight against the Sixers was a waste of time.

That dude is so injury prone. Damn

 

[wildturkey]

Shaq is mistaken. Harden was referring to the strip clubs when he said he "gave the city his all"

 

[wildturkey]

That dude is so injury prone. Damn

The Blazers still doesn't have Collins either. Portland has a really nice team on paper but they can never stay healthy to see it thru.

Dang what did u have?

Dang what did u have?

Started focusing on player doubles which requires the team to win and the player to hit whatever i chose so this was the bet

Ben Simmons triple double and the win
Van vleet over 3.5 made threes
Myles Turner double double and pacers win
Jokic 8+ assist and nuggets win

Dejounte Murray 8+ rebounds and spurs win. This is the one i didnt hit. Dude had 7 rebounds since midway of the 3rd and never got another rebound....then of course the spurs blew a 9 point lead with under 4 to go as well

The simmons triple double and win odds was +900

They will be middle of the road. Not good enough to win not good enough to get good draft picks. You need superstars to win in the NBA, and typically 2 of them, to beat other teams that already have that (Lakers, Clippers, NETS). They have 0 currently. Butler just happened to play like one this year in the bubble...He has never shown to be a leading star outside of the bubble ever...

Told you...

 

[Wamu]

Coming from the guy who lives in the shithole state of Ohio.......LOL.

Shithole? Watch it there.

Told you...

*Errr, um, various sounds of hesitation*

Jimmy is playing just 29mpg (below his career avg) because of the quick turnaround on the offseason and recovering from an early season injury......BUT he is averaging 15.8ppg (a tad below his career shooting%), but he is averaging 5.5rpg (above his career avg), 5.3apg (above his career avg), and 2.2spg (above his career avg)......clearly he is pacing himself.....

*Flips quarter to Mecca for her trademark*

The Cavs deserve a 1st for him, he is playing some damn good basketball! Throw in Simons too

 

[DJ Fieri]

Told you...

Also, Butler didn't average 28-30ppg in the playoffs.....he just upped his scoring average in the postseason by 4ppg.....not some crazy number like Murray did in those 3 games where he went bonkers.....142 points in 3 games.....

Very possible Butler does that again (upping his career avg in playoffs) in this year's playoffs.....since he is their featured scorer when it counts.
