2021 NBA regular season thread

Any team he would start for isn't capable of winning a playoff series

He's been THAT bad. He can shoot 3s at a mediocre rate. He's below average at everything else other than maybe passing

He’s headed to the Nets and he will average 15 and 8 coming off the bench.

More likely he's just cooked and he'll be picked by a team and wind up not getting any minutes.

If he isn't cooked he should get an academy award nomination.

Harden's was obvious but at least he was still a good player.... even dogging it.

I hate the schoolyard style team choices

I'm not a fan of that either.

He got more than 8 rebounds twice while averaging 32 minutes a game this year.

Just my prediction

Damn. He's obviously not the same player he was years ago. Didn't realize it got that bad though.

The Pistons likely just paid him most of the 74 million they still owe him to be a free agent. Yeah, he's that bad.

Draymond would be every bit as valuable to the Blazers right now as he would the Warriors.

Of course situations matter, but saying Draymond was solely good because he was on the Warriors isn't a very good take.

Put Draymond on the Rockets or Blazers from 2015-2019 and I genuinely believe they have shots to beat the Warriors.

Depends....is he still also playing for the Warriors? Because adding him to the other team and taking him off the Warriors means those other teams win pretty easily IMO. Maybe not 2017.

With the usual validity....

 

[msgkings322]

Blake Griffin is far from done, I’d bet on that

So he's dogging it like Harden did?

We will see I guess, not wrong often though

LOL. Sure.

Not even close to what harden did in my opinion. I just think he will be rejuvenated getting out of detroit. He had way too much talent and athleticism to be done already.

Are the Pistons still paying Josh Smith????

I would not know whether to be livid or impressed

You're a loyal homer, I'll give you that...

They finally wrapped that up last year I believe

220 × 124

39 mil in dead cap for next year. Lol

Lmao I was never a big Blake Griffin fan, ever.
