THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[lynchpin33]

Nationally televised game and I was looking forward to it too smh

Thought it would be further into the schedule before they started #Popoviching him. The folks in Utah have to be thrilled they paid higher prices for Pat Bev. Stuff like this makes it so difficult to have full faith in a ticket when it is announced the day of.

Colorado Kobe trying to continue evolving into Paul Bunyan

What does that even mean

 

[alchemist iq]

He doesn't have to touch the basketball to get rings. Just take pelinka job and do it better than him.

Going to my first Sixers game of the season KAT vs Embiid going to be a monster matchup

The irony.

 

[you go boy]

if lebron wins a ring with the lakers he would finally earned it imo... the heat and cavs were stacked but when he came to the lakers it was just him... then ad just got traded this summer similar to how gasol got traded to the lakers

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

You might as well come on over to the other side my man. Like 90% of your posts are about the Lakers these days

 

[JD617]

IMO he didn't really earn it in '16 when he led both teams in every category. Needs to do it by a wider margin for me to give him credit.

KOLORADO Kobe gon say that 81 was really 105 in a couple years

post first, read after lol. just saw...but mine had a better graphic

 

[Maximus Meridius]

It's kind of Odd that they would sit Kawhi vs the Jazz instead of the Spurs... considering the Jazz are more likely to be fighting for playoff positioning with them instead of the Spurs.

I'm all for Kawhi curb stomping Pop tho

One day we're gonna have a serious talk about Pop being so stubborn & vindictive that he passed up on the Lakers deal because it was the Lakers... and wanted to ship Kawhi to a place he didn't want to go...

In turn

- Kawhi won a championship, is being regarded by some as the best player in the league & still ended up in the WC
- Lakers ended up with Lebron & AD
- The Pels have an extremely promising young core with assets galore
- The Spurs are capped out & looking at a future led by Demar Derozan

I was saying last year it's going under the radar how the Spurs f'ed up their future. People ain't really talk about it cuz people don't really care about the Spurs.

Gotta adjust for pace and increased 3 point attempts

 

[MajinZuub]

Was just reminiscing with my brother that postseason where Z Bo was on a tear with Memphis
Dude was balling out his mind and tossing bodies left and right in the process

What was the Lakers offer for Kawhi again?

 

[you go boy]

but if ad wins fmvp, which most likely would be the case, bron just dwade on the heat.

while that may be true he might win a ring and not be the #1 guy.... that reminds me of kobe's first 3 rings... i still would say he earned it though

[B Sox]

Yeah tonight gonna be rough without Jaylen and Kanter

 

[8pm at msg]

I'm gonna assume this was already shared in here but I'm just seeing it so its new to me

 

[pmatic]

What was the Lakers offer for Kawhi again?

I don't think a concrete offer was ever made between the teams. The Spurs didn't seem to be interested in trading for young players and sending him to the Lakers.

But a trade probably would have involved Ingram, Ball, Kuzma and a draft pick.
