Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

[Based Jesus]

Seen him the last two years with GSW...he stinks in those situations

He was literally unplayable against the Rockets cause he’s was so lost in pick and roll coverages

He's good because he's on the Lakers now. Don't question it.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

All the numbers with Zo say otherwise. His defensive instincts were just better too.

Zo does his thing but he's not switching 1-5

 

[Mr Dink]

Can't be mad at Dame's answer. Mans just saying he's alright with anything.

Really tough to have a good defense with LeBron leading you in minutes & Javale at the 5 who has also never played more than about half the game. There's also no backup for javale at the moment

We're likely going to resign Brook and he'll be the starting center.

Kobe looked like shabazz Muhammad after that Achilles injury

DeMarcus might end up looking like oliver Miller after this ****

Javelle worked great for the gsw because they could limit his minutes due to the asthma. Hopefully he stays within his range and doesn't push himself too hard.

"Lance, Rondo, and Javale are good players anyway. Lebron makes everyone around him better, so just imagine what Lebron will do for them" - My dad completely losing his mind

He’ll have as much trouble with the pnr as Javale.

Brook was decent last year. Lakers didn't do a lot of automatic switches like most teams. Their guards in Zo and KCP fought over a lot of stuff.

HILARIOUS!!! LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Are you serious...." That was me!

My only question in this whole Boogie thing is what really happened to the 40 mill deal. Seems like they were ready to pay him a ton to rehab for half a season.

He said no and they pulled offer.

Difference is...you can't offer someone a contract when free agency hasn't started. so all this talk of him being a offered a deal by NO before July 1st is pointless. There was no paper and no pen involved.

How was he a free agent at that time? 2/40 was offered after the injury but before the season ended.

 

[pmatic]

It was an extension offer.

 

[430AM]

REHAB work for Boogie. Looks like good progress especially from a 270+ pound 7 footer.
Running that hard on the treadmill lowkey looks like a bad idea tho.

 

[Quincy McCall]

Always spot Chris Copeland in the most random video's, always hoopin

 

[ballinsam23]

Really dont think anyone is at fault here except maybe his agent. Should've known the market this summer would be dry and to accept that 2/40 offer.

Cousins also knows his value is at an all time low right now, going to GS was the best decision he could make at this point.

 

[MVP]

So the Spurs want 2 starters + 3 1st rd picks from Philly for a rental

or

2 starters a good bench piece +2 1st rd picks & 2 pick swaps for Kawhi

Pop can go eat several meats

Ingram+Hart+2 picks and nothing more. Then steal Klay from GS next summer and we favorites for the chip.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

Y'all should know dudes go by name t recognition instead of what reality is atm . Hoodie melo not being rated a top 50 player was a disgrace , remember that.

 

[antidope]

Now Klay

Let me guess his dad will make him right?

 

[HNL HI]

Lakers fans when LeBron loses his first game.

Now Klay

Let me guess his dad will make him right?

Mychal def wants him here. But methinks after KD leaves and Draymond gets eligible for his super max, it'll be a lot easier for Klay to come here with the window closing/shut for GS.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

Lakers ain't winning a ring anytime soon.
