The Official NBA Season Thread: All 30 Teams Playing Tonight

[Blue Mamba]

Sixers shaping up very nicely. PG and EG.

They might be favs in the East. Injuries is the only thing thats gonna stop em.

Eric Gordon is washed

 

[pmatic]

So is OKC gonna add a big or nah?

Reading the tea leaves, seems like Hartenstein will decide between OKC and Orlando.

So is OKC gonna add a big or nah?

being ovelry dogmatic abut the "dribble, shoot, pass, 5 out" thing. Harteinstein is out there and even the KNicks think OKC is in the mix, but OKC people themselves think we probably aren't. He's also probably too good because Presti is probably not about to give out 4 yrs to anybody so their money doesn't overlap JDubb/Chet extensions.

 

[pmatic]

Not the biggest Jalen Smith fan, but the Bulls actually did something good.

 

[N41D]

Me either, I just can’t see why DJJ wasn’t brought back tho, he was perfect for what the Mavs did, maybe Naji got that defensive “dawg in him”

Naji a dawg and can defend up…

He’s definitely better with bigger, more physical wings and can stretch into small ball big minutes some too - probably a bit of preparation to potentially replace some Maxi at the 4 minutes, too.

Not as good defending smaller guards as DJJ, but I’d guess they’re relying on Quentin Grimes to fill that void.

Plus you look at the West, small jitterbug guard defense is just overall less important.

 

[datznasty]

Hartenstein or bust, or Goga Batizdae

 

[pmatic]

What a cornball.

 

[dman14]

Clips should be fine (in the regular season) with completely running the harden system offense. Harden at 2/70 isn't that bad. I think his production will be similar to PG for those two years

 

[JMB10215]

I see KPJ is back in the league. NBA forgives but I dont.

 

[JMB10215]

Nuggets lost KCP
Clippers lose PG
Warriors lose CP3 and Klay
The west is changing. Oh and shoutout to the Pelicans. That Murray move is a big improvement. Got him for virtually nothing.

 

[getback]

Nice to see Philly get Embiid and TM some help on the wing.

Favorites in the east seems like a biiiit of stretch though.

[antidope]

Time to go place that OKC Finals bet

 

[pmatic]

OKC going to the Finals.

 

[B Sox]

Well there we go!

 

[lesgodson]

Get the bag IHart…

But damn. Would’ve kept him over Mitch

 

[ALNotSure]

Paul George getting cooked by Tatum and Brown lol

 

[nick.]

 

[ill steelo]

That’s a larger % of the cap than I thought he’d get wow

OKC officially has enough. Damn near favorites if just 1 of Dub/Chet takes another step.

 

[bhzmafia14]

I love Hartenstein, but damn

 

[ALNotSure]

Paul George gonna miss more games than Embiid is nasty work

 

[antidope]

What can you do.

 

[ballinsam23]

OKC fans will love him. Well deserved contract. Tough loss for us.

 

[nick.]

What can you do.

Christain James McCollum & Grant Williams, you will not see the gates of heaven

 

[datznasty]

damn I knew we’d have to overpay but that’s a “move from NYC to Edmond” tax and a “take 3 yrs instead of 4” tax. I thought Claxton 4/100 set the market
