2021 NBA regular season thread

Getting him back is step one. Step two is seeing what they can get for that Minny pick. Step three is Wiseman improving and Wiggins continuing to improve. They are never getting back to the 2017 version, because that was one of the 5 best teams ever. But they might get back to the 2015 version.

Contenders yes, favorites no.

Or maybe they get the no. 4 pick, select Jalen Suggs, and your back on the path to prominence with that addition along with the other stuff you mentioned.

Sure if they get someone useful for the pick in the draft that's great. My point is that pick is one of the assets that might get them back to the Finals.

I'd love to get Suggs. Perhaps he, Wiseman, and Wiggins could be the foundation for continued success.

I know Thompson is out and all but I have a very hard time seeing a path for the Warriors to get back to prominance.

Warriors have ownership that wants to win and is willing to spend. That's pretty much half the battle. Also, they have the Minny pick and Wiseman. The future looks okay.

OT in LA

 

[Robotech]

Man, it seems like the Lakers go to OT every other game.

 

[wildturkey]

Yep the national guys either don't watch at all or only watch when the team is on their network.

You think Barkley, Shaq, and Kenny is currently watching basketball? THe only basketball they probably watched since Thursday was Nets/Clippers

Ernie: You got your eyes on Pascal

Shaq: No, I got my eyes on Siakam

Lakers release 2x champ Quinn Cook

 

[shopson67]

That game was on Feb 2nd.

Here's the boxscore from last night - Nets/Clippers

Yeah, I'm an idiot. I glossed over the date lol.

No worries, it happens

Lakers release 2x champ Quinn Cook

Precursor to signing Boogie?

 

[shopson67]

Unless you're Hakeem Olajuwon or Larry Brown

Hakeem was just riding Horry's coattails

 

[shopson67]

They actually look professional in their unis at least.

Those other unis should be banned. It's an unfair advantage; the opponents feel like they've been dosed with LSD.

Man, it seems like the Lakers go to OT every other game.

They've had 4 OT games this year, all this month, with 3 in a row. All versus teams they should've beaten easily. They look like crap lately, uninspired, sloppy and lazy.

Lakers release 2x champ Quinn Cook

He's really popular with his teammates and apparently a great locker room guy. They must be preparing to sign someone. According to the LA Times, Boogie is not the top target. They speculate Hassan Whiteside.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Would the Mavs want Wiseman or the Wolves pick

"This is from Feb. 11th on a Porzingis trade to Golden St. https://nbaanalysis.net/2021/02/11/nba-rumors-dallas-mavericks-golden-state-warriors-trade-features-kristaps-porzingis/2/… Golden State Warriors Receive: Kristaps Porzingis, Josh Green, James Johnson Dallas Mavericks Receive: Andrew Wiggins, James Wiseman, Alen Smailagic, 2021 1st Round Pick (via MIN) Top 3 protected."



Lol

Get fucked on that idea

[Stakesarehigh]

Where in the hell would someone even conjure the idea the Warrriors would trade all that for Porzingis. Maybe Giannis.

 

[Wamu]

Celtics on the tube tonight. Have no idea what to expect out of them. Frustrating season so far.

Yeah, maybe 4 years ago Porzingas would have been worth all that.
