NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

So that just shows everyone how valueable James is to ever team he goes to. You see up until this season Cleveland hasn’t been able to do anything

I mean, we look like unless we get ravaged by injuries we'll make the playoffs in year 4 of a rebuild. Took Philly 6 years, NY 8 and Lebron's own team 7.

They were saying AD is missing roughly one outta every three games.crazy...

Guess dtgold was right when he said Kevin Love was essentially the same player for less money...ummmmmmmmmm, don't tell him I said that, y'all...

I wont tell him.

Maybe LA (or wherever AD is) need to adopt the Love plan (even though I'm guessing AD is much younger) and play him 20-25 minutes a game at least in reg. season.

The Hut has a new spicy double Pepperoni pizza......I expected a little kick but that pizza is bad ass and packs legit heat.

PS: Don't order from there very often since there are better options for pizza but I saw the commercial a few weeks ago and decided to try it 1 day. Legit heat.....

we have better options here, too, but will say there are times I want a Pizza Hut pizza.

I'd gladly take him on the Dolphins. Rodgers is a bit dramatic, but most high level superstar athletes are.

Given how Green Bay has mismanaged that roster and wasted Rodgers' prime years, I think there's validity in why he's a bit upset.

From an outside perspective, I think Green Bay fans are thinking the grass is going to be greener on the other side if/when Rodgers retires or moves to another team.

How did they waste his prime years? Roster was usually good enough to be a legit contender. were times he was the one who didn;t get it done.

Is he also like Lebron as trojan alluded (excellent analogy, FYI) in that he gets all the credit if they win, but no blame if they don't?

So guess all that talk last week was much ado about nothing? @ChiefsLakers67

Eric Bieniemy is returning as the Chiefs' offensive coordinator for the 2022 season, a source confirmed to ESPN.

Read that, but yes...

Hoping him and Mahomes have worked things out...

Kind of was treated the same way....why he was given Westbrook, isn't it? why better fitting players were let go for his friends.

Yeah, he was definitely treated that way. They got him AD, made requested changes to a roster that had just won a title, then got him Westbrook, Melo, etc. Now...he and Klutch have basically been told, no more changes, no more mortgaging the future, this is the roster you wanted...deal with it.

Had to stop at some point...

Haven't had one in years. My son is in Florida visiting his Mom. Wife his hanging with the MIL tonight because of some big deal doc appt. tomorrow. There's going to be basketball on...thinking about just grabbing one of those spicy pizzas @DJ was talking about. If it sucks...I'll make nachos. lol

He may have gotten 2-3 people to get this pizza. The Hut should send him some gift cards.

Nothing wrong with both

 

[Heatles84]

I have to think they will franchise Adams no matter what happens

It’ll still be a significant cap hit regardless. And Green Bay will still have the same problems.

Has some heat, bro.

Troy is good at his job

He's a raging alcoholic.

He's a raging alcoholic.

Lol it wouldn't surprise me...

Just can't expect the leftovers to be any good. That crust is like a sponge, turns into a greasy, soggy mess when you reheat it.

Who's backfilling Rodgers? We have plenty of data to see what Greenbay looks like without Rodgers - utter dog shit. You keep mentioning Greenbay being a 1-seed team, you may as well say Greenbay with Aaron Rodgers as the starting QB as he's arguably the best QB in the league.

Dog shit is a bit strong; they lost to KC 13-7 with Rodgers out. Obviously not great, but we're talking about a green young QB thrown into the mix without much practice time with the first team. I did say they could still be a playoff team depending on who replaces Rodgers should he leave. That division is not exactly strong. Vikes could be changing QBs, Bears have an underdeveloped QB, Lions try hard but lack enough players, etc.

I don't think there's any argument, especially with Brady retired; Rodgers is QB1 right now. Like any QB though, he needs a strong enough supporting cast.

So they played the Chiefs close in one game. Noticed that they scored 7 points? Again, you mentioned that they *could* be a playoff team based on who they replace Rodgers with. Who are they going to replace Rodgers with? And again, we've seen what Greenbay looked like in multiple situations where they didn't have Rodgers; they lose most of the time. Rodgers covered up a lot of warts within that organization.

Not fair to judge them that way. Someone getting a spot start with little preparation is much different than having an entire offseason getting 1st team reps. Also the coaches can pit together a nice system to play to that qb strengths
