THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[B Sox]

Why did Conley try to miss on purpose when it was a 3pt game? That's kinda crazy/risky.

 

[spacedoodoo]

Great win for the jazz.

Kyrie went like 0-5 in the final 2 minutes of the game lol

 

[firstclass]

Kyrie 3ball this game been trash

Let's see what this Portland / Sac game hitting for

But the Game Manager though.

Why do y'all call him Game Manager?

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

He seems to go through these lulls. Denver reporters have always been flabbergasted

Was listening to a Denver pod today, they explained how his long time Serbian trainer said how when he was a kid there were many days where he'd tell coaches he didn't want to practice

He's truly an enigma

Jazz, man. Everyone starting to get used to each other

They're going to be a handful to eliminate in a series

Porzingis = Rik Smits
Jokic = Okur

Yep, I loved how Mudiay and Jeff Green got valuable buckets towards the end of the 3rd and the 4th. They stepped up for Joe Ingles poor shooting.

If the bench can emerge, I like the chances that they're a top 3 seed in the west.

Truthfully? Like dead ***?

I'on remember l I don't even know where it came from I use it sometimes for an all encompassing term for Trae Slander Lol

 

[don ramon]

tbh, this is nerd **** 101.

this man has come through when his team has needed him.

hate mediocre nerds like this nate silver guy trying to cut down players. just find it unnecessary info

I definitely remember myself and others saying last year when he was routinely shooting his team out of games that he should focus on what he was really good at (distributing) until the shot comes around.

This data will be extremely fudged because of small sample size but he is definitely in a funk. It's clear when you watch how he plays and his production. With that said this seems to be an annual occurrence but he always seems to break out of it as the season goes on

Ahhhh I remember it now. It was during a stretch last year where he was like 1 for 27 on 3's or something and at one point was taking 2 3's per game over that stretch.

Random but I do think that Trae can shoot, but isn't a shooter. One way to exercise that by doing it the Harden way i.e. taking a ton of 3's even if you're not Steph Curry w/it. The math and gravity both is in your favor if you're a good off the bounce shooter taking upwards of 9 3's per.

enigma is the perfect word. Murray is going to make or break the nuggets in the immediate and distant future for this reason.

 

[nick.]

B2B’s should be two home games in row, not 2 road or one and one.

the pistons got into to Miami this morning at 5:30 AM

Easy lick @bovada

With how he's shooting this year, he should put up whatever he wants.

Jesus Portland.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

They been look off, I believe they need to unclog the rotation with some trades. They also could be tired of playing with each other to a degree because it seems like there's no joy compared to past seasons. Most likely they've become a team that believes they can flip the switch when it matters

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Jesus Portland.

I worry about them because there's no concrete relief coming due to the injuries

 

[art vandelay]

Jesus Portland.

If only there was another scorer that could be had for super cheap that is willing to show that there is still something in the tank and wants badly to play ……

 

[B Sox]

The Collins injury compounding on the Nurkic injury is a killer for Portland. They may actually need to hold onto Whiteside now, which I really don't think was their goal.
