The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

[lynchpin33]

Strong TCU vibes vs the Bulldogs tonight. A waste of America's time incoming. Hawks' vs Celtics should have been the prime-time game or any of the others. Any game but this game.

Should have been an NBA TV Saturday night game.

Zion wasn't cleared to play because he gained too much weight while injured and was out of shape

This is it, looks to be no different from that foot injury that kept him out the entire year.

Part of being medically cleared for 5-on-5 is being in shape. That includes actually playing 5s and reporting limited to no soreness after a day of rest.

He never got there with the foot injury & he never got there after re-injuring the hamstring in early February.

He sits down, gains a ton of weight, then it’s an uphill battle to get his conditioning back. It’s inexcusable.

And this is with all those clauses in his contract. He hasn't been a professional since entering the league. I'd look to move on from him asap

I’d buy this but the nuggets were trending downward as of late. Bad enough for Malone to call them out. Still think they win but the twolves will put up some resistance

Nuggets were on cruise control after the Ja Memphis game. Malone always calls out the squad even in wins which is why this might be his last season here.

At VvG

Gobert: 2148 minutes played: 95 blocks

What are his other NBA skills?

If you think someone can average 17, 8 and 6 on close to 50 percent shooting, for a .500 team, with “no NBA skills” besides passing, I’m not sure you really know what NBA skills are.

But it’s you, so cook on.

He was the main reason I watched OKC this year. His skills and being an OG American were why.

Overseas basketball is shady as hell. Never bet on it. Games are definitely rigged.

Ben Simmons literally did that tho. Guess it’s just an Aussie thing

Zion at this point isn’t worth the trouble. If Joe Shmoe who makes $75k a year and goes to Planet Fitness after work can be in better shape than a multimillionaire athlete with “world class resources” that’s a problem. But of course the way teams solve problems is to max a guy then complain about him like they didn’t have a choice.

 

[antidope]

When does this lock down? Still on limbo on some choices. Not wavering on Warriors in 4 convincingly in the first round though.

Locks at tip off. Not a lot of time left.
