The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[DLF]

I agree with Russ. 2 for 1 is crucial

But why waste energy? When there is 30 secs left, just cross half court and throw ball out of bounds. Same result except you save energy.

That woulda been smarter

Leadership. I love it

This is everything KD and I saw years ago. And why he made the best decision to leave him.

“KD and I” has me dying for some reason

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that benching Westbrook is a mistake. Unless you’re just not gonna play him at all this will only create more derision

Going overboard with the trolling at this point. Scale it back a bit

Like him and PHA be having weekly consultations.

Jam packed arena for Zion. But I was told the fans don’t support

I’m not though. Idc about the lakers fans on here enough to do this. Go ahead and further alienate the guy and create bigger rifts in the locker room. I’m willing to bet it causes an issue

Philly being the East Coast Lakers is nuts.

 

[finessence]

Westbrook was point shaving….

Players need to stop protecting that fool

Easy solution to this is to send him home, permanently.

A 2 for 1 while leading at the end of the game is crazy. It's just not smart basketball.
Do you know how bad you have to be for the other teams bench to celebrate you taking a shot?
Jumping up and down before it even bricks. This Russ last year in the league.

I agree. If you are gonna do anything it has to be this. Benching him and continuing to play him is not the move

Something has to be done because this can't continue like this.

Especially since Russ seems determined to do things his way and doesn't want to adjust his game.

 

[Armada]

I swear Kelly Oubre does this to us once a season

 

[VARNELL HILL]

I’m not ok with everyone treating a black man like this in public view. A black father, husband, brother….son. It’s not ok.

Bad overturn. I don't care if Pat ran out the gym crying hysterically. That's not how u set a pick

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Now just imagine how those young kings and queens would feel if they knew people wished injury on their dad over basketball reasons which aren't his fault?



Toxic fanbase

 

[picasso swerve]

Westbrook at this point should think about playing in China. Bring that ferociousness and anger over there. He'll be able to get away with the stat padding and chucking over there. They may call him the reincarnation of Lu Bu. He can get a shoe deal with Li Ning etc.

Which Dynasty Warriors game was your favorite?

 

[addict4sneakers]

Feels like the jazz are going to keep lauri.

The point of a 2 for 1 is to get the final shot of a quarter.

In a final shot of the game situation, you want to be on defense everytime. Why? The best shooters in the league miss more than half of their contested shots. And a missed shot obviously wins you the game.

It’s that simple. Was yet another low IQ play from a low IQ player

Youd be on offense though with a few seconds left if Russ makes this shot though thats the point. You play the possession out theres 12 seconds left after you shoot and Portland gets the last shot.

Either way On my way to the season opener v Timberwolves. Caught a lower level baseline corner by the road bench for 29. Gotta grab a quick shower then probably just uber from the crib since its like a mile. Arrested Development on the halftime entertainment, free socks for the love I heard #cheap
