THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[addict4sneakers]

Alex ginobili >>> Luka

confirmed.

 

[MVP]

Bron playing 48 minutes running the offense?

Nah but 40 minutes drastically changes how effective the team is overall rather than him playing 35. And if Vogel smartened up and plays Caruso over Rondo we'll be just fine.

 

[MVP]

Alex ginobili >>> Luka

confirmed.

Luka is all world on offense and a turnstile on defense. Slovenian Harden.

 

[getback]

We don't need a guard. Pelinka's actions pre and post-deadline prove this.

So he brought D. Collison out just so he could try the Staples Center new Mac-n-Cheese Hot Dog?

I’m not even a Celtics fan but they just won in 2008, were in the Finals in 2010 and had a couple ECF appearances since then. They were supposed to be Buns but drafted smart and used their Top 3 picks to get an AS and another borderline AS. Signed an AS last year. Got a white dude with a black twin brother on the Clippers. I know they didn’t win and that’s all that matters blah blah blah but let’s not act like they had a horrible decade and haven’t positioned themselves well for the future. Based on everything that’s happened, they truly aren’t supposed to be here/where they’ve been the past 2-3 years.

To the long time die hard Celtic fan who was there when Auerbach, Sam Jones, and then later Bird were tearing up the league, they not too satisfied trust me. I know a few.

ALEX GINOBILI

Alex ginobili >>> Luka

confirmed.

Im really mad dudes just give ALA ammo without even being goaded. The thread is gonna be hearing about Alex Ginobli until they get knocked out. They gotta win now or it’s gonna be a long summer.

 

[sohi 23]

Alex ginobili >>> Luka

confirmed.

never said anything like that man
RPM has a lot of faults but most of the top guys are who you would expect to see.

my son White Donte, Schroder aka 6th man of the year and Terrence Davis aka 1st team all rookie are top 10 in overall RPM but aside from the few anomalies it’s not the worst all encompassing stat.

Publicity stunt lol

To mess with the Clippers. And it worked.

Non stop. I expected no worse than 20 on 45-38-85 from Alex the rest of the season.

LeThief James

The Slander Bus ready to roll or too soon..??

 

[atlsfinest]

 

[do work son]

Derrick Rose or Darren Collison or Both?

Bench getting worked. Kuz back to being Kuz. No other life out there beside Dwight like always.

We NEED Collison and Marvin Williams NOW

I can see either of these as reasonable possibilities. At the end of the day, we need a guy that can just go out and get buckets and create for others. Rose and Dinwiddie fit the bill imo. Thoughts?

 

[Cashflow]

Receipts getting pulled is my favorite part of this thread

 

[trynafeelmink]

Bron playing 48 minutes running the offense?

Based on history Lebron plays 42mpg in the playoffs, so due to age ill bring that down & say he does about 40 mpg, Rondo, Caruso, Bradley to an extent can handle bringing the ball up and running basic offense for the remaining time.

I've said this for months now but the Lakers "lack of playmaking" has been overstated considering the majority of the game will be spent with one of the best playmakers of all time handling the ball.

I mean who's running the 76'ers offense when Ben is gassed? our the other options really that skilled in playmaking?

Kawhi Leonard is arguably the clippers best Playmaker... PG & Lou will aren't exactly known for their ability to create for others.

the Bucks? George Hill & Eric Bledsoe?

The 10-15 minutes of Lebron not handling the offense or being off court is not this hopeless scenario that people have made it out to be

 

[getback]

Dinwiddie for Kuz and KCP though

 

[everysingletime]

I'm sure he's getting a max contract somewhere. I'm not sure if Pels should be the one to give it.

 

[D StaXX]

Caruso seems like he'll be a good energy, hustle play type of dude come playoff time. Things that don't necessarily show up on the stat sheet.

Bingo. Dude does the little things that contribute to winning basketball.
In no way would I ever take Reggie Jackson over him.
Sidenote, I watch a lot of Detroit games cause they've been money on overs, but there was a guy that had a trade Reggie campaign going and it was hilarious.

 

[Moheezy]

What I noticed with ROY voting is the recency effect.

Receipts getting pulled is my favorite part of this thread

It always amazed me how people can pull receipts from so far back. That's commitment.

 

[storm2006]

For his CAREER, Manu averaged 13/4/4 on 45/37/83. 2X All-Star. 2X All-NBA. 6MoY. 4X Champion. And we are saying his name in the same sentence as Alexander Caruso. The comparison between those two stops at hairlines and bald spots.

We as a collective have to better.

Ben doesn’t get gassed lol the entire point of #YALL needing a guard is because Bron has been struggling against size on the perimeter. Gonna need someone else to do that. That’s why I said relying on guys like Bradley and Rondo ain’t it. Green has looked washed on occasion and KCP is as untrustworthy as Earl Smith Jr

All ******** aside, I legit put random percentages out

[frshstunna]

Ben never seems to be lacking energy. One of the best things about what he brings to the table.

I'm sorry should i take the 3-4 games Lebron has played bad against "size" this season and assume he will continue that? or look at the 17 years prior and assume he will still be pretty capable of running an effective offense in the playoffs
