2021 NBA regular season thread

Those nights happen to everyone. The improvement in all of his shooting percentages is pretty remarkable. But he has to sustain it or it won't mean anything.

No doubt nights like that happen to all players. Was just being overly critical for no real reason. But his overall improvement shows he put time in during the off season working on his game. It's showing on the court.

When KD returns Kyrie will announce he needs a few games off after carrying the Nets while Durant was sidelined. He's tired.

Well he can definitely say he is mentally drained and not be lying

Irving sat out but he's been the only 1 of the 3 who hasn't missed time due to injury I think.....

The guy said the Earth was flat. He ain't right mentally in the first place.

Was my point, he was born mentally drained

He took some time off earlier this season to clear his head. Then violated league virus protocols during his off time by going out and about and missed a few more games.

Yeah, but none due to injury....

I'm just waiting to see how long it takes him to figure out he doesn't like Brooklyn. Didn't like Cleveland because of LeBron. Didn't like Boston for whatever reason. I figure something will bother him about the city since he's had issues with his previous two stops.

Injuries are a legit reason to miss games. Saying you need some me time and then break league virus portocols by going out and about is just selfish. What he did isn't a good look for him. Helluva player, would never say otherwise. But his judgement is questionable at times.

My thoughts on the Celtics season.

I was very skeptical after last season.

But he did completely overhaul his form and he seems to have improved a lot. He still has a ways to go, but he is definitely an asset on the court now. That was debatable after his first couple seasons.

Although, according to Pasta NBA players don’t ever improve their skills because they just sit around and relax all off season.

Maybe he finally stopped listening to his Dad. lol

I'll take "How we know Pasta wasn't a professional athlete" for $500 Alex.

And he's had to do much of it playing alongside the corpse of Eric Bledsoe.

We acquire Drummond and Gasol decides to start playing like he actually wants to play basketball again.

Any chance that LeBron & AD sit out and only play the final 10 regular season games so they can rest for the playoffs? I'm just trying to think of things that would help the Lakers lose games.

Mmmmm, I dunno, man. Got maybe a lucky rabbit's foot or something...?

lol...

Yeah but Blake acting like he can no longer dunk because all of his "knee" takes the cake for me. I won't be disappointed at all if karma come for his ass and he really injure his knee
