2021 NBA regular season thread

Heat Twitter is a horrible place to be. Makes sense why players hate social media. Heat lose 2 in a row and the sky is falling again

It's a lineup that is unlikely to ever be used...ever. The only circumstance would be if Bam and Jimmy are both out and they had to have a stop at the end of a game or half.

The reporter made a comment simply pointing out how many top defenders they had, never actually suggested they would use the lineup and felt like it needed to be analyzed.

Now you're trying to walk it back. lol

I feel like I'm only a couple comments away from another ban on this topic.

Damn Suckeyes destroyed my bracket on the very first day. I had them losing to Gonzaga in the title game.

Seriously thinking about banning every tOSU fan on the whole site. lol

haha....read this right after my last comment.

I thought they'd go further than they did but no brackets had them in the title game nor in the Final 4.

Detroit trying to lose but just can't manage

Also noticed with Wall and Oladipo back Porter, Jr went to the bench and did nothing. No clue what to make of this kid.....still wished Cavs showed more patience, though.

Starters and enders. That's it.

the shimmying? I'm trying.

Except mine. lol

I tried to do the opposite of what I usually do (overanalyze) to see what happens. So every game, I just went with my first thought and didn't look back.

Didn't work any better than overanalyzing.

Other than OSU and some BIG schools I cannot say I knew much about many teams. 4 brackets. Really good day 1 in only 1 of them. 1000+ entrants so day 1 and 2 is the key.....as is picking the champ, of course

Porter picked up some minor injury, too. Maybe Houston is trying to build up Oladipo's trade value.

The shimmying is awesome, come on man! People hate personality now?

Good, your awareness is getting better!

 

[msgkings322]

People been awfully about Green lately.....LOL. He's had some really good games including double digit scoring.

And triple doubles all day. I keep hammering it here because he gets no respect.

Awareness has never been the problem....I know I have issues.

They want everyone to be Kawhi Leonard

Right? I'm the opposite. I respect the hell out of guys like Tim Duncan and Kawhi, but they are so boring. I love all the personalities, Draymond and Russ and Steph, and Embiid and LeBron and the rest.

This OSU loss has left me totally uninterested with the tourney today

I will prob regroup tommorow

It is really just a couple people that totally misunderstand his value.

They are just pretty vocal about it.

But some are Warriors fans LOL

Again it comes back the Warriors being dominant.

The shimmying wasn’t a problem when they were underdogs or even the year they won 73.

But once they landed KD and became an unstoppable force, people got mad because they knew their team couldn’t beat him.

If the Warriors team had the same resume as say the Blazers, nobody would have issue with Steph shimmying. It would be endearing.

Yeah, that I don’t really get.
