The Official NBA Season Thread: USA Setting Up for a SFA

[D StaXX]

Amen stats don’t jump off the page but he was playing really well. Sucks that he will be out for a while. An already thin bench gets even weaker. We need Tari back asap.

The starting lineup, moreso FVV, Sengun, and Dillon looks good. Sengun averaging 19/9/6 and no one in Houston is surprised. I said last season that he’s already on the level of Sabonis. Now he doesn’t have a coach handicapping him.

Dillon brooks going from one of the worst offensive seasons in league history to now is astounding. Small sample size but his fiba play has carried over to the season.

I’ll trade Jabari and Jalen green for whatever star is available right now. Like today.

This is based on the totality of everything we've seen.
Cade is a better playmaker, decision maker, rebounder, defender, & just as good at scoring.
So far, we've seen that Jalen has scoring potential, but that's literally it.
He's a cone on defense, and a lot of times looks completely lost without the ball.
It was the same **** last year.
My guys in Houston not turning on him, but I do see a shift with how much they riding for him.
Cade basically missed last season, and he's still way more polished than Green.

Jalen is a highlight, but he's yet to show he knows how to play winning ball.
Cam Thomas better too.

Some ideas that may [hopefully] transpire.

Not much changes on the offense except for a more reliable 2nd/3rd option. If nobody wants him, which is likely, jump off them 4 picks that expire this summer in the deal too.

It’s been a ruff start.

Watching my brothers RustyShackleford and wavycrocket argue is depressing. I will be telling Big Mama so not sure if you guys are getting an invite to Thanksgiving.

Me and wavycrocket always gonna be cool. Just some light early-season banter

But if we talking about squashing beefs, and coming together as brothers.

I know the thread, and Big Mama, would like to see you and antidope find common ground

 

[Nipsey3000]

Bob Myers is solid

You're right.

But I honestly would rather have van gundy and Jackson

Keep it a buck Cade lowkey mid too especially for a #1 pick. That whole ‘21 draft class was hyped up but it’s really meh.

Sengun is probably the best player from that class and he still has a limitations as a player defensively.

All this toxicity on a Thursday

Yall need to go back and talk about pron or something

 

[nikekid6]

Throw all them jersey pics in a spoiler b. Thumb tired as hell

 

[HOU$TON]

Here he goes again!!!!

It’s well documented that Jabari was never my guy. It was so much group think going on with him. I thought I was in the twilight zone when all those mocks and draft boards had him #1.

I did like Jalen green but even then I wanted Mobley at #2.

3 brutal years for the franchise and your grand prize is Jalen green and Jabari smith? That’s just not good enough.

NBA CITY EDITION JERSEYS

Kings got the best jersey.

The Knicks that's basically the Allen Houston/Sprewell era jerseys.

Cade & Sengun both the truth.
I know for Cade, he just has a really high usage, which leads to a lot of turnovers.
Detroit's spacing is terrible though. He needs actual shooters and a secondary ball handler to help take some of the pressure off him.

Kings, Pistons, Suns have the best city unis.

Clippers, Wizards, and especially Heat have the worst.

Warriors black based city unis continues their downward trend.

At least these ones don't have piss stains on them so EYE guess that's progress.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

ALA we take time out today to honor your organization and its endeavors. Dia de los muertos putos

Toronto trading OG for Evan Fournier and rest of year rental of Quickley was not on my bingo card this morning

 

[clyde the glide]

Why do we need new city editions every year? Just give each team a solid alternate and a throwback what is all this extra nonsense

 

[dacomeup]

Keep it a buck Cade lowkey mid too especially for a #1 pick. That whole ‘21 draft class was hyped up but it’s really meh.

Sengun is probably the best player from that class and he still has a limitations as a player defensively.

Franz Wagner is the best player from that draft as of today.
