Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

That 06 finals wasn’t as poorly officiated as people make it seem



No one on the mavs could even remotely stay in front of him

Been said this . Was even about to post a video but got distracted. They were hacking the crap outta him at first because they couldn't guard him, then it turned into him getting every call

Yes it was. Dude shot 97 free throws in 6 games...absurd.

The greats always get that shot down. Wade, Duncan, KP

I'm saying because once you start hacking then the refs start calling it tighter. I think most of those free throws were fair calls

Wade was Westbrook like explosive in that series and during the olympics

@hardens beard Jordan Bell was missing A LOT in those drills but yeah they normally go morning drills / afternoon games

Question

What is the TOR connection? Why is their whole team there?

DeLon and Norman Powell?

Do you mind me asking what you are doing there?

Can anybody just walk in and watch?

I was wondering what prompted the thread to jump a dozen pages in about a day... should have known it was a debate over Kobe or player a > b

I knew I should have locked the thread for the day.

I still suggest everyone go out and download Micktape's Top 50 NBA rankings podcasts. Especially once you get into the top 30 or 20 and you get to hear their takes on it... really funny stuff and sometimes interesting too.

Yes. I haven't been to that gym in years but we just had to wait for a student to walk in

I knew I should have locked the thread for the day.

Our coach tried to change his shot in AAU and he refused.

Made it to the league. Killed dudes in Europe and China with that shot.

It's not THAT bad. But he made it.

Team thing. Detroit had something similar yesterday. OKC did it too earlier this summer. Utah has like 5 guys here. If you have your guys in LA (Which most do, most live here in the summer of course) and they wanna hoop and / or get work in, you just bring your team and staff through. Often times Player Development guys spend a week or two or even a month with guys so when it all of the guys are in one place, it just becomes a pseudo training camp, like Toronto is currently. (I think this week alone probably 7 raptors were there not including their G League guys who were also there)

And whenever I'm not at work I just drop by and watch because I love hoops and no anyone can't walk in and watch they're pretty strict on that. I just happen to know quite a few of the players, agents and team staff there (not trying to be the typical shoeking name dropper lol) from hooping from like pick up and stuff and through working with the Clips.
