The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[pmatic]

Injuries got the Lakers going eight deep like it's a playoff game.

False alarm

 

[pmatic]

Craig Porter Jr. can play. Every time I tune into a Cavs game he's doing something positive.

Poole had a dnp-coach's decision

 

[lawdog1]

Jordan Poole might end up having one of the more unusual NBA career arcs ever if he doesn’t get stuff together in Washington.

 

[CHAOSE57]

Max with a couple of bad misses from 3 but shooting well overall.

Giddey played!? Thought he was cut

Giddey played!? Thought he was cut

Nobody is getting cut over unsubstantiated internet rumors.

Team suspended him and made announcement today that, based on the information they’ve been given about the situation, they were comfortable letting him play.

If the NBA’s investigation shows he actually did something illegal, things might change.

 

[yobyellav]

Makes a ton more sense. I know the guy may need to be humbled a bit, but a DNP CD seemed extreme. Salute...

Good one in the land

Mobley been traveling his *** off all game

 

[don ramon]

cavs are the most mid team in the nba
lakers gotta put this team away

 

[BennyIll22]

And of course they end up running out of time after wasting the first half of the quarter

Lineups are the most basic thing to get right & some coaches struggle with it

Function of being a coach hired to tank then kind of overachieving but ownership not wanting to soend to get a real coach whenever the going for it starts. Mark D would start fans if he could. Also the Thunder team is small as they have been for years and gives up the most inopportune o boards

They are first and foremost prioritizing development and figuring out 'what they have' in nearly every situation. They are very intentionally doing a lot of the weird things they are doing. It's how they want to do it on the way to the next step.

I know it isn't going to be popular at times, but it simply is the organizational plan. They've been as plain as day about it. Both Presti and Mark.

They need another all-star or are going to be on the mediocrity treadmill for a while. I like Mobley, but I don’t see him becoming a guy they can relay on for scoring any time soon, if at all.

I don’t think you need to double Mitchell in his first game in over a week, but looks like it worked out.

Mitchell gonna be outta there before that happens though.

Then he was the only player to not play.

They tryna get that fool up outta there. Probably can't get a bag of chips for his *** now though.

Cavs were eating anytime they had the advantage going down hill and then Christie wants to double off Strus to compromise the entire defense.

max christie nice

Glad they hit AD water bottle with the secret stuff at halftime.

 

[yobyellav]
