Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

During the Heatles era once Seven Nation Army started playing you knew **** was about to go down.

Gave me chills every time.

Even better was the time the Spurs fans were chanting it in the Finals

Embiid is eligible for a 5/$150M extension this summer. What would y'all do?

Give him the money?
Trade him?
Take your chances in restricted FA?

Give him the money because that's a bargain if he stays healthy and if he doesn't they still would have room on the books.

You give him the $, because there is literally no other way of going about this. However, you gotta look at someone like Gilbert Arenas as a cautionary tale....

Restricted FA for Embiid.

 

[antidope]

Even with RFA they're still gonna pay him. Shrugs.

 

[pmatic]

I wouldn't give Embiid an extension this summer/fall. Let him play out next season and decide from there.

Ideally an extension would have protections like incentives and non-guarantees in it, but that is probably unlikely.

I agree somewhat, Steve's first MVP was legit, he was playing out of his mind, but the 2nd, no doubt Shaq got robbed.

 

[pmatic]

I would argue Nash's second MVP was more deserving than his first.

 

[addict4sneakers]

No amare, no joe Johnson and they still won 55 or so games.

He was the MVP

 

[Proposition Joe]

I understand shaqs frustration

 

[pmatic]

Speaking of, happy birthday Shaq:

I will concede to your argument because you're right, I had my MVPs mixed up.

 

[art vandelay]

He was the MVP

Got my seasons backwards, but yeah the year with STAT out and they still won like 50+ games he was more deserving.

 

[kdslittlebro]

Why they got this ayo *** pic for his wiki

I didn't remember Shaq doing his thing in 06 but that was a long time ago so I could easily be wrong

Shaq started eating again in 05-06 he ain't deserve it that year. 04-05 is when Shaq was really good.

"Brodie" is just a few more sub 40% shooting games....and under 10 assist games from finishing the season at 40% from the field....and under 10apg

Brandon Jennings: 'I'm in the same position I was in NY but just a better system for me personally & a team that actually plays together.'

Full quote, but he's not lying when comparing whats going on in NY to DC.

Jennings was part of our chemistry problems tho.

 

[carver]

Jennings wasted no time

 

[Based Jesus]

Who needs chemistry and teamwork when you're a superteam? We men 

 

[squatchnt]

I agree Jennings is still in the same position since he still sucks and comes off the bench
