The Official NBA Season Thread: Back and Maybe Better Than Ever Before

So glad the NBA moved on from these guys.

When did the NBA move on from them?

Not even mad at what Chuck said about JJ.

Slide right in with his unqualified self thinking he was going to move mountains.

And he was one of the MAIN culprits when it came to the "Plumber Talk."

So I'm not even mad at it. Cook that fool.
 
What’s wild is just one three gave Boston the win..

Interesting numbers as MN did very well shooting the 2, 3 and ft and still lost.

Can someone explain to me where the Jimmy Butler issue came from? I swear it was all peaches and creme not too long ago. He gets to be featured/tolerated as much as any team would allow him to do so.
Persistent trade rumors and them just being mid can lower morale I imagine

Is he supposed to come in and not think he’s gonna make a change?

He’s mad moody and streaky. Remember too Pat went at him when Jimmy made the we would win comment and Pat said shut up if you ain’t suited up..

 
Honestly, it's more about the Laker fans thinking he was going to move mountains.
Nobody thought that. We waited anything that wasn’t Ham and thought that anything that wasn’t Ham would be better. And he is. Hes not perfect though.
 
He takes 7 a game. But he’s also much bigger than Ant.

I agree that Ant needs to be more than 4 FTA a game though for sure.

Just don’t think it’s always as easy as folks think.
He isn’t guilt free but he’s been playing with 2.5 non shooters and a ball stopper all season. Dudes swear it’s easier to score but help defense can neutralize guys when you don’t respect the others. Add to ant got shaky court vision

Ita definitely not easy. I watched D. Rose progress from ROY to All Star to MVP. The entire time, Bulls nation kept begging for more free throws. And it wasn't like Rose didn't attack the rim (pre injury)...but he did contort his body to avoid contact often. It's part of what made him great. He was so agile, fluid and slippery in the air.

Rose fought an uphill battle.

My issue is it seems like more often than not Edward's is settling. Yeah, his team lacks shooters/spacing, but he's too athletic to be taking 11 3's a game. He's gotta diversify his attack.
