2021 NBA regular season thread

I think players follow protocol usually. Outside of Kyrie and Harden, everyone else seems to be doing what they're supposed to

Get ready for the Nets dumpster fire then...

They aren't going away quietly, still expect them to be a 6-8 seed.

That's my thought as well

Oubre shot the ball well last night....

 

[shopson67]

With random people? No

With people you know are getting tested everyday? No big deal and wasn't against the NBA covid protocol at that time.

Getting tested everyday only means you didn't get the virus before the test. Everything depends on your day to day activities and how careful you are. Masks may not be 100%, but not wearing a mask affords zero protection.

kyrie has experience playing off the ball in Cleveland playing with stars.....so i think harden probably plays point more.....though im sure they will try and stagger it a little bit.

...and he hated it so much that he begged off a finals team. Any ground given by Kyrie is temporary at best IMO.

McCollum fractured foot. This is just the Blazers year after year at this point.

 

[shopson67]

Yes, and Wiggins playing well too this year. But it's not enough to be contenders and tonight, forget it. Look out when Klay is back though, I think we're seeing Wiggins will be very useful.

Lakers are gonna win the title again easy assuming no big injuries.

Who goes to the bench when Klay returns? Wiggins or Oubre?

Rains -> pours

 

[shopson67]

I’d rather take the fritos and cash lol

You could maybe get McKinnie back?

Yep, saw that.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Have the Cavs played a game yet with all 8 of those big men? LOL.

 

[shopson67]

Dray coming up huge.

2 baskets and forced the Bron travel

...and got away with his own blatant travel

 

[DJ Fieri]

KD's numbers are flat out sick....

30.6ppg, 7.1rpg, 5.7apg, 1.1bpg and 0.8spg.

Efficiency?

54.1%, 48.4% on 3's, and 87%.

Harden and Irving (if he returns, I'll believe it when I see it) need him to have the ball with the game on the line.

Oubre will be on another team imo

Wednesday vs the Nets and probably the first game for the Big 3. They haven’t played one full game with a healthy roster, that I know

They are going to be traders at the deadline, they have a plethora of bigs.

Oubre, if he's even still on the team

But younger Klay will not be good after his Achilles LOL

He's had serious injuries in back to back years. And I think he could be if he can stay healthy.

Sure but John Wall did too and he looks great
