2021 NBA regular season thread

There is this crazy thing called telling it like it is

And the Nets whole question with this super team is their defense is rather soft, especially on the perimeter.

The point is the Lakers are a really good team and the Cavs aren't.

So, if the Cavs swept a really good team it would be an anomaly.....

Pretty sure the point was even though the Lakers won even LA fans didn't see it coming.

Ok....but there are games you can go off and games you cannot hit anything and sometimes it's the shooter and not the D. All I'm sayin'.

Well, clearly you didn't watch the game.....

 

[dtgold88]

Well, clearly you didn't watch the game.....

Yeah...I said that. But I did see the highlights and some of those makes were contested.

saw entire Cavs' game and many were saying how awful the D was on Trent. And, yes, occasionally it was but that kid made a number of contested or even well contested shots. I'm more inclined to credit him than blame someone....but I get fans would rather blame than credit.

He really is clueless.....SMH.

You should have learned you can’t take a regular season game serious. Some teams go all out, other don’t care, play down to comp, etc. In a series you would have a point. 1 game tells you nothing tbh

But, didn't you say the Nets would win easily?

LOL.

 

[DJ]

How many starters were the Raps without tonight? And they still beat down the Cavs?

LOL.

Many did...including some Laker fans.

Did you think LA would win?

I actually bet that they would cover the spread.

I actually bet that they would cover the spread.

question was did you think they'd win? and not sure betting fake money means much does it?

Nor does it take away the fact most Laker fans thought they'd lose and at least 1 said blowout.

This is as absurd as those who ripped wiggy for saying Miami would go down in playoffs when their own fans thought the same.

But hell of a game for the Lakers supporting cast.

I bet real money that they'd cover at a sports book.

Also won money on UCLA + the points vs Zags and Baylor + the points vs the Zags.

My son and I were watching WrestleMania...I told him that I wanted to switch back and forth until I figured the games was out of hand. Even told him that I didn't expect to be checking back much after about halfway through the 2nd quarter.

Well, I was right about it being a blowout. lol

I had the game on in the background on a laptop on mute as my husband and I watched Dexter.

Didnt expect much but wanted to see how Drummond and THT would perform

 

[thunderc]

Laker fans watching Wrestlemania and Dexter during a Laker game. That’s confidence.

Loved that show.

Didnt expect much but wanted to see how Drummond and THT would perform

Turns out...they did okay. lol

Warriors rookie James Wiseman has a torn meniscus, could miss rest of the season.
