OFFICIAL NBA 2017-2018 Off-Season Thread

[Based Jesus]

This is my problem. I've heard someone say "but Charles and Kenny said" too many times and it's always garbage.

And at that point the discussion is over because they played basketball and are in the HOF and are on TV and you're......nobody so it's an impossible task convincing people that they are full of ****.

These are people at work though. Hard to find better company than those people. They just don't know crap about basketball.

same. It's like dudes I play ball with. All they do is repeat what they hear on inside the NBA and ESPN.

No lie I get most of my basketball talking points from reddit and realGM

Like the ones where you said KCP was a good "secondary playmaker"?

Or the one where you said Hassan Whiteside was better than Rudy Gobert?

 

[antidope]

Lol I'm not mad at all though. I'm stating factual things.

If bucks have a chance to get Bledsoe by trading brogdon, they gotta send dat mf on the first thing smoking.

Podcast people > TV people in terms of media. The podcast people know that their sustainability depends on them actually knowing what they're talking about.

First off, when did I say KCP was "good" at being a secondary ball handler. I'm saying that's his role at the Lakers currently. He may not be "good" at it, but he's doing it lol

And hey, I'm sold now that Gobert is better than Whiteside.

I like reddit for analysis sometimes but for the most part I don't care for it. Half of the time them reddit threads are corny as hell. Everyone trying to be comedians doesnt do it for me.
When I want to read ish I do enjoy some things at 538.
For The most part I just watch as many games as I can and talk on here. Pretty much ends there.

Pelicans should make a play for him. Ship out Holiday and Ian Clark.

I was thinking the same but I'm not sure how the Pelicans will handle the Cousins situation. Maybe Holiday, Cousins, Ian Clark for Bledsoe, Chandler and a lotto pick. I'm just thinking as I type...

 

[wavycrocket]

We need to get @freddy fig on TV.

That man knows his bball and is low maintenance. A bottle of E&J and Moët will have my dropping some fire takes. A mix of humor and basketball knowledge....with day Nola flava.

I mean...the man predicted at least a 40/15 game from DMC last night. Put my Dawg Fred w: the razr on the tv

NBA podcast community is really dope. LockedonNetwork hella dope

I like MDJ for my NBA YouTube. I like how he's just a regular dude trying to teach people about ball and learn himself as well.

 

[EddieDoyers]

Also let me clarify on that whole Lonzo Ball/ secondary ball handlers topic

Someone (I forgot who) brought up that Lonzo needs secondary ball handlers to be more efficient at scoring

I simply said KCP and JC are the secondary ball handlers of team (I didn't mention their quality of play though)

Then they moved the topic to Lonzo needs more help (which technically he would be better with more quality "secondary ball handlers")

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Sportscenter poppin like this??

Just saw the outline of one of his videos. I've Been thinking the "assist" is the most overrated stat in ball.
