The Official NBA Season Thread: Free Agency Day

[Vincent Van Goat]

Is Patriot Jonathan Isaac healthy and ready to hoop this year?

Yes he looked pretty normal out there. Assuming he isn’t ready to play regular minutes but off the bench he didn’t seem to be moving hindered

 

[storm2006]

I was right on the money....

15-5-2.

He was efficient though I will give him that. Told y'all to take the under.

Is there anything wrong with a rookie putting up a 15 point, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks stat line in his first game?

 

[Mister Meaner]

Shot clock violation
Dwite play too much.

 

[nick.]

only 81 games left!

 

[8pm at msg]

Victor gonna have to put his foot down eventually.

Remind them the reason he’s there is because they suck in the first place.

 

[don ramon]

Murray’s brick-factory cost us. His jump shot has been off going back to late last season. Johnson and Bey the only ones really hooping. The bigs did their part. Won’t win many games when Murray’s smoking possessions with his broke jumper.

We're already in shambles. Maybe not quite, but definitely not a good look. Came out flat and got blown out.

Trae shot horribly too no excuses for that but the difference between him and Murray is Murray don’t get to the line or can run and offense and playmaker for wat Trae does to make up for it.

Both of them have to shoot way better but we really need Murray to shoot way better the most.

 

[Mister Meaner]

Still NYK should be scared of nobody in the East. Perhaps Yanny still but no other clubs around.

Spoiler

Lost that game at the FT line & early szn rust and mistrust. 11/43 was JB + Dubious.

With continued health and DDv getting acclimated in due time, this train will be rolling towards more success.

Need less shots from the mid3 and more from QG. 19/63 were those three main shot takers.

Them boys who are favored by many barely escaped with their dub after playing near perfect ball. KP was phenomenal and gracious in his post game presser

I don’t care how many plays trae makes or any number one option for that matter— if that dude shoots 4-19 they’re not going to win too many games

Blame everyone else though, I guess

 

[Coupé It]

Are the Hawks making the playoffs?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Are the Hawks making the playoffs?

They got zero excuses not to just like “Slovenian trae” out west

People can **** on the hawks draft picks and moves all they want but they have enough talent to make it

 

[pmatic]

Are the Hawks making the playoffs?

Play-in team unless Quin Snyder is a magician.

 

[pums]

Too much talent now. We can expand to 32 teams.

 

[Coupé It]

Play-in team unless Quin Snyder is a magician.

That’s what I think too.

 

[Mister Meaner]

Cam up early getting to some of that First Take action

Best thing in opinionated sports talk going today

The Celtics played near perfect ball?

I’m not trying to blame everyone else I said Trae needs to shoot better and needs to be better and of course we need him to do that to win games but it’s not wrong to point out that his game offers more than that when others lack outside of that.

 

[Armada]

Are the Hawks making the playoffs?

Absolutely have to and will.

 

[WASHED KING]

Rookie? Of course not.

Best prospect ever? Bron had 25-6-9.

Imma give him a pass for this one though fr, cause I think it was more on Pop not letting him play enough min than him not playing well.

I was impressed not only with Wemby but his teammates. The other guys have to have big contributions to facilitate what Wenby does. It is a long season and if the other guys don't do much then teams will load up the defense on Wemby which will wear him down causing him to get into foul trouble.

I will also say that it seems like the physical defense Williams played slightly bothered him but we need more games to see if more teams do that strategy.
