The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

[ill steelo]

No off-ball skills, not good enough on the ball to get you out of the first round.

So this is literally the only role he can play on any good team.

AD & Bron get about 13 mins of rest each and it’s staggered, so there is still a lot of minutes available, but he can’t have an ego about it & Bron has to actually LET him run point. They tried it in that preseason game and Bron didn’t get off the ball, which entirely defeats the purpose

Bron also knows that, so if it happens again tonight then….

Simmons at his best or not, I don’t understand Sean Marks not even making Bruce Brown an offer

Thats the exact kind of role player you want

Guess they wanted to upgrade the shooting and that’s why they got Royce, but BB makes so much sense with these guys

Between Mills, Curry, Harris that's a lot of overlap

Brown and O'Neale with two of the above would be much better. Not sure if that was possible but my point still remains

Signing Warren made sense but who knows about his health

If Simmons shows any signs of life for a sustained period I'm selling as high on him for whatever I can. Big if though

******* idiot.

Kyrie browsed the Kanye thread

 

[WASHED KING]

Kyrie mad Kanye taking all the attention.

[osh kosh bosh]

Fake deep king, loves the ultimate fake deep conspiriacy?

im shocked.

I wouldn't overreact. Every time they negotiate, the owners start with a hard cap knowing the players will say no.

Even more foolish now because everyone is making money unlike in 2011.

Right, but just basic negotiating tactics. From the owner’s standpoint, no reason not to start discussions with a hard cap.

 

[MVP]

But y'all told me there was too much money to be made

 

[earldagoat]

Kyrie browsed the Kanye thread

 

[RustyShackleford]

Of course someone like Kyrie would be attracted to this special category of nonsense

 

[lawdog1]

This probably isn't going to help season ticket sales in Brooklyn.

 

[Armada]

Don’t wanna see a hard cap. Would like to see that if it’s someone you drafted it wouldn’t count against you and make you go into the luxury tax to sign someone you drafted and developed.

 

[kingjay718]

Playing with Bron you regress.

 

[RustyShackleford]

I don't think we get a hard cap

But I do think the luxury and repeater tax rates are gonna get a big hike

Cheap owners gonna be inside CBA meetings sounding like Bernie Sanders

Tell us more Raji Lowenthal

Woooow cancel culture has come to the NBA thread.

Will check the movie out if I get the chance.

 

[DLF]

Would love to see a hard cap.

Jeanie needs this to stay competitive

Weird how the modern "free thinker" tends to just be a soft brained idiot susceptible to right wing programming. Easy programming too, nothing deep needed.
