2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

[cash money 1999]

Jalen is funny in those but he doesn't really provide any knowledgeable analysis on the teams.. which kinda makes me feel like watching them all would be a waste of time.


The half hour team previews they're running on NBATV are great, I watched a coupleof them today

jalen is a complete student of the game , his predictions on his podcasts are scary accurate...

he just doesnt wanna get too john gruden with it and lose people

 

[datznasty]

who's calling this magic/cavs game? 

dude is off the henny

Austin Carr. The most boring sounding voice of all time

 

[Bert.]

Tim Sr. is somewhere shaking his head.

didnt even know Landry was gonna get burn this year and of course the bum misses the damn dunk

still a sick cross over, would have been even better with the finish

 

[don ramon]

These Grantland previews are so awesome.

Except for Jalen singing all the damn time.

Give the peooopppleeee what they waaaaaant

lol

i personally am a fan of jalen's r&b stylings

 

[dipsetgeneral]

[pmatic]

Anthony Bennett is cooking. On the court!

Dion Waiters is playing some great basketball. He really is turning into one of the best shooting guards in the league. A lot of people pretty much thought that was a joke when he said it.

Anthony Bennett got off in the 4th quarter but that dude is FAT. He was bent over gasping for air every time there was a stoppage of play. He needs to really get his *** in shape for him to play like that consistently for a full season.

I'm an official supporter of the Cavs this year since I want my Sixers to go 0-82 this season.

 

[Animal Thug]

Proud of my young boys.

Bennett clearly showing flashes of his potential. Just a few years under his belt and he'll be savage on these streets.

And my young bull D Waiters doing his thing of course, as expected

..and Austin Carr can't don't no wrong in my book, and this city love his commentary and he'll be doing what he does until he calls it quits.

D waiters will be a top-5 SG by next year.

Told them haters bout the young bull though

 

[buc em]

He might already be there in the top 5 depending on who you really classify as a true shooting guard. The talent at that position has really been a dying breed.

 

[awwsome]

Bully Bennett

ROY, him and Kyrie in 3 years is going to be

 

[victor page]

Super Cool Beas looks good out there. 

If Orlando lands Wiggins next year...Oladipo + Wiggins > Any other young duo

Seriously. I was doing a Fantasy draft and after James Harden the next worthy SG (besides kobe & Wade) was Klay Thompson and Jr Smith lmao.

Dion def has the ability to be top 3 SG's. Still think he should be a 6th man

 

[buc em]

I don't think the Magic will be bad enough to land the #1 pick. Either way though Randle, Parker, Gordon, Smart, Exum, Selden, Embiid, Hezonja...gonna be some big time talent all over the 1st round.

If the Sixers land one of Wiggins or Randle then pick up Hezonja with the Pelicans 1st rounder I will cry tears of joy. I love me some Hezonja.

 

[black migo]

idk about top 5 the sg position is deep


Kobe,harden,wade,joe,jamal,oj,monta,jr,klay beal, oladipo off the top

No pressure on him yielding effortless output on the court. Pleased so far

Came in here to say this. Reddick, Mayo, Eric Gordon, Jamal Crawford, PG24, Monta, JR Smith, Kobe, Harden, Wade, Joe Johnson, Even Beal, are all probably superior to Waiters as of right now.

That can definitely change though. I've been high on Dion for a minute, and really feel like he can have a Dwyane Wade impact on a game if he maximizes his potential, especially offensively. He's a streaky shooter, but the mechanics and lift are there. He's a good ballhandler, and can get into the paint and showcase his best attribute:athleticism.

Waiters is a phenomenal athlete, which like wade, allows him to get away with his size, or lack thereof. Regardless, I'm high as hell on Waiters and see big things for him if he can become a more consistent player on both ends of the floor.

 

[awwsome]

Not high on Waiters, he seems like a less athletic and defensive version of Wade, his jumper isn't broken but he doesn't hit it and his shot selection is pretty terrible but that will get better with time. Don't see him being a 25 a game night guy at any point in his career though

They won't have to be bad enough. 

Ask Chicago

SG is deep? And you name Jamal, OJ, Monta, JR, Klay, Beal and an unproven rookie?



Nothing says deep like a bunch of inefficient chuckers and bench players!
