2021 NBA regular season thread

Did the turkey for Thanksgiving. Doing a ham for Christmas with twice baked potatoes, asparagus, candied yams, rolls. Making pumpkin and chocolate cream pies for dessert.

Not having my sons around for Thanksgiving was no big deal. But it's a bummer they're not coming over for Christmas this year. Already mentioned the rib roast. Mashed potatoes and salad. Just my wife and I so not the usual amount of holiday grub.

I love Asparagus, I wanted a ham but with a 20 pound bird? And just the 3 of us? Makes no sense since I'll be eating turkey for 1-2 weeks after Friday.

If you like Gumbo. Don't throw out your turkey carcass I made this recipe with the Thanksgiving turkey. It was really good.

Turkey Bone Gumbo

Turkey bones make the stock for this gumbo that uses leftover turkey meat, plus sausage and a dark roux for maximum flavor.

Yeah, we're keeping it pretty small this year. Just gonna be the wife, mother-in-law, son and me. The daughter with the grandsons just got over Covid and still tires easily. So the wife is going to go drop off the presents for her and the grandsons later today.

Taking 8 seconds to slowly dribble away from the basket into a step-back 3 over the outstretched arms of Giannis is terrible, terrible offense.

JT and the C's got lucky there.

Like I said, I'll take it and I'm happy for the W... but as @The Q would say... that's bad process even though we got a good result.

yup. against miami those weren't going in.

it's probalby the #1 reason they didn't make the finals (and maybe more).

 

[The Q]

Max said sit Harden till he's dealt.....

if you're close to a deal, sure.


but if you're gonna sit him until the ASB, that's just silly. His value isn't going to increase over time anyway.

Cavs > Heat

Or too early to tell?

TT fan yet?

 

[The Q]

TT fan yet?

i think he’s a good fit to what they missed last year.

it’s a lot of money and the hard cap sucks.

but he has a role in the team

 

[The Q]

TT fan yet?

do the cavs have a center of the future yet?

or is that next draft?

 

[dtgold88]

@WiggyRuss how much do you think Sexton averages this year? I’m going 24-25 ppg. 27 tonight and he wasn’t even driving much to the hoop, looked like an easy 27. Crazy

True, but guessing Charlotte not a very good team. That said, don't recall opponents but was in that range when JB becamse coach last year.

I'll say something like 22-23 with 4-5 assists. Hopefully can keep those shooting % up like last season, too, and can improve his D (I know...can't be much worse...but he is a hard worker).

definitely thinking Nance can be a Green type player while hitting a higher % of his shots and not being a nutroll.

Could be Drummond. Guessing they either deal him before deadline or extend him. Cannot see him walking for nothing. If they deal him who knows who future C is.

Seen Lebron do that many times here...and not make it. Yep. No doubt bad O but good if it goes in.
