Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

[frshstunna]

I watched the entire game from start to finish. This is the 2nd straight game I've watched of trae in preseason from start to finish. Tf

I'm not even looking at results or box scores for him right now. The hawks suck. They will suck this year. If you can't see that he's shown some really good flashes in preseason then I can't help you

If you don't think any of this will translate to regular season then for sure, we'll see. But he's been solid in the preseason so far and shown some really good things as far as reads, playmaking and scoring instincts, especially w/getting to the rim. That much has been a fact.

@VARNELL HILL said it best a while back...Trey the rookie that it’s either all bad or he was “ok, but...” ...the other ones have decent games n that’s just a sign of things to come or they just rooks just wait on the potential

Young the only rook on here that’s treated as a finished product it seems

Miami wasting their time with Butler...but I’m not a heat fan so just do it and let’s stop talking bout that guy

He's this season's Ball and Simmons

Lakers might actually make the playoffs now if the Murray injury is serious

Young is Steph Curry with Marcus Smart's jumpshot.

Solid role player.

 

[frshstunna]

Watching a Spanish league game and Ant Randolph STILL out chea underachieving

That still probly better than your guy Luka tho...he looking like a slower Gordan Giricek so far ...athleticism and speed even less than we thought on the NBA level , he living off passing ability like Trey is

Trash is a walking turnover that can't shoot and is a complete turnstile defensively.

Luka >>>

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The Trae v Luka is the new Ratsull v Bootyay

 

[B Sox]

Trash is a good ball handler with court vision and no conscience. All the makings of a high level 6th man.

Luka >>>

U don’t really wanna include defense if trying to say Luka is better than anybody else...Shorty not even drinking age n they already been talking bout ways to “hide” him in the line up

Well spoken! Young Mike Miller to me.

Luka definitely isn't a good defender. But he has size and can be hidden on guys like Robert Covington for example. Trae doesn't have that benefit. He's just food any time he steps on the court.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Nurkic outchea shooting 3’s

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Fun game with Utah and Portland. Blazers continuity and scheme should get them into the playoffs again. Dame and cj looking ready

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Exum taking and making threes

Yeah SURE...Luka Fatso is the only plate around here..you was hype off his fat *** playing against Chinese dish washers..the minute he get an athletic nba defender on him he’s nothing. Trae gonna put on weight and do his thing regardless ..him and John Collins going to do their thing that chemistry is already built. Continue to hype up Darko 2.0 tho

 

[frshstunna]

Pre season just needs to be 2 games , we should be watching real basketball right now

 

[wavycrocket]

 

[bostoiah]

Evan Turner one of the funniest dude in the league

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dame, cj and curry lineup

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Jake layman if he can give anything at all that’s a nice bonus. Bouncy stretchy wing

 

[P C H]

The emphasis on pregame fits in the nba over the last two years has been wild.

Players legit out here trying to get they fits off on the gram 10 minutes after the game’s over lol

A prime Mike Miller isn't bad at all tho...
