Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

[Hank Scorpio]

Must be nice to be a Lakers fan.

Team never really rebuilds, they usually just retool. Have had countless legends put on the jersey. And fortunate enough to have LeBron join during the twilight of his career.

I frankly enjoy the NBA when the Lakers, Knicks and Celtics are all competitive. I hope Magic knows what he's doing and doesn't mortgage the future to appease LeBron now. I think we'll get a much clearer picture of what to expect during the months of August-September.

We've been rebuilding since Kobe tore his Achilles

Ain’t been the same since Dirk came through and crushed the buildings

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Melo is gonna play well in Houston next season.

They got lifetime fitness out there?

 

[shotsrangout]

Can't stand that chick. She also literally said "LeBron carried a bunch of corpses" to the Finals. Zero respect.

Other than Kevin love, name one player who did anything worth a damn for the Cavs on that finals run

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

They're will be some sick and twisted irony if Magic does get Bron and Melo 4 years after Mitch and Jim failed to deliver either one.

They already got IT and Lance from Kobe's contract year

 

[squatchnt]

When old players go to championship teams to play 10 minutes, if that lol, a game. Do people view them as champions (in my Coffee Black voice)?

No...you did not.

Boston rebuilt...Lakers retool. Let's be real here.

Then dirk took 100M in paycuts to finish his career for a lotto team year in and year out

No...you did not.

Boston rebuilt...Lakers retool. Let's be real here.

What do you call 5 years of top 10 picks?

 

[tay1]

No...you did not.

Boston rebuilt...Lakers retool. Let's be real here.

Semantics.

 

[storm2006]

Dude you have issues.

Both of them randomly stood right beside/across from me at an airport.

I was joking about them literally “telling” me he’s going to Philly. I asked them both where they thought Kawhi was going and both of them said the Sixers. And that’s without me ever mentioning I was a fan nor wearing a shirt or anything showing I was a fan.

That post was just jokes though. Don’t take **** so serious.

You know damn well you were fumbling your phone with giddiness to type that post in baggage claim with the intent of pulling it up if he ever made it to the Sixers. You might as well be a cashier with all the damn receipts you give us

 

[nick.]

Lakers had the #2 pick 3 years in a row.

That's a rebuild if you ask me.

 

[MVP]

Wut? We've picked in the lottery the last 5 years. In the top 3 the last 3.Boston traded Pierce and KG, had one down year and made the playoffs every year since. How is that not a retool?

 

[lovehateself]

His friendship with Chris Paul would effectively be over the second he signs with GS.

would that really be a bad thing
lebby wasnt tryna force his way there to play with him

 

[jjs07]

Here we go...

 

[MVP]

Here we go...

Somebody get Magic's phone dawg

and things couldve been a lot worse if we didnt keep our picks.

 

[Nike Jordan]

The Knicks have been in "win now" mode since 1991.

Yeah, it would

My issue was the way she went about phrasing it. If I was an NBA player and some ESPN slob called me a corpse I'd spit in her face.

 

[jjs07]

Magic gonna put a washed group on the floor w/ Lebron at the expense at getting his young stars minutes.

 

[storm2006]

I'm all for making as much money as possible but at what point does it become how can I look my son in the face knowing all I care about is money and don't care about my son seeing me as a winner

Melo the definition of a true loser *** *****. Melo **** you we don't want you in NYC. Your legacy is ruined bum *** *****. **** you.

Dwight on the wizards?

Okkkkkkkkkkkk dmv we out here

Bruh why you do you want to be from the northeast so bad? You claiming more cities than @wavycrocket claims teams

What thy King requesth, thy giveth.

Or else...off with your head! You can ask Knight Blatt yourself.

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Wanted them to get Melo and Dwert for the vet min but just Melo will have to do.


Will be the perfect guy for Kuzma to learn from. Yes I'm serious. Banana boat unite!

Melo can probably learn from Kuzma right now. He's the better player.
