Someone get me a NBA trainer. I’m trying to make the nets squad

 

[Platinum State]

I swear Brooklyn has been had the most unrecognizable players on their roster the past 5 years if not more.
You look at all of their players pictures and not know most of them even if you follow the nba closely
I cant name 3 dudes in that pic

Lakers fans might actually watch and root for their team to win this season

We're not even projected to make the playoffs and Lakers fans still care more about us than their own team

The amount of delusion cLippers' fans have sold themselves on this idea on NT the past decade is hilarious
**** getting Lebron we wanna see how these Tobias Harris Clippers do! Banking on a 30 year old Butler trade to keep you in the playoff run.
Still remember y'all trying to rub the CP3 deal in and didn't even make conference finals
Arguably the worst franchise in NBA history

2. Boston Celtics
2017-18 record: 55-27
Result: L, East finals
Previous rank: No. 2

The big training camp task for Brad Stevens and his coaching staff? Starting to sort out what the Celtics' regular-season rotation will look like. In doing so, Stevens will have to decide which Celtics players will take on a reduced role this season. Remember: With Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward sidelined last spring, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Terry Rozier and other young Celtics played significant roles in Boston's run to the Eastern Conference finals. Hayward and Irving are healthy now, so it seems logical that Brown, Rozier and Marcus Smart may have to accept diminished roles in 2018-19. -- Ian Begley

I wonder if Bledsoe decided to trim down if he would see fewer injuries.

Just thinking "Out loud.

Yeah I realized I completely forgot him. He was awesome last year.

I forgot yall got Brad Wannamaker.

Solid combo guard. If he can sneak in some minutes (probably won't) it will be productive for sure. Paid his due in Europa

I disagree with dude who said that but you also posted a link where 29 other teams were also being talked about DCAllAfrican

True

But I am just saying, no team that has been projected to go to the Finals SINCE last season can claim, "Nobody is talking about us."

Looks like a Corporate Rec League team
Back screens, flares and a ton of ball movement every possession

He was good at Pittsburghs. He won't see the court though unless the team faces the same kind of injuries as last year, which would be pretty wild. Has 4 guards/wings ahead of him off the bench.

Him and Whiteside going to go get along JUST fine....

I can see him and Weighters being BFFs as well

One of them would definitely be on the way out the door if this trade actually happens especially if the Wolves ask for Josh Richardson

I'm sure clip fans would've been very humble and gracious had Bron snubbed the Lakers and joined pat bev to form a super team across the hall like he led everyone to believe when he made it clear that he would never even consider playing for the clippers, ever, in a million bajillion years

Gotta work on being grounded and realistic like Lakers fans. I didn't think that westbrook, PG, AD, KD, or Kawhi would end up in LA when you guys said it but here we are. Now the greatest basketball player ever is on that team so for sure the have to win it all this year. Have to. Anything less would be a massive failure.
