THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[lawdog1]

To get off the load management topic, I think I overestimated this Bulls team. I was high on the group of players they have last season and thought the big issue for them was injuries. But they’re healthy this season and still pretty bad. I know they’re still young, but I think I projected too high a ceiling for Zach and Lauri.

Sample Size Szn Heat getting washed by the Nuggets

This is who the Miami Heat are. What do you expect from a team with jimmy butler who refused to fix his teeth up after the big payday?

Y'all sound worried/concerned

 

[frshstunna]

Yikeeess

Might work out for him...looks like hes gon get all the mins and touches he wants they way GS set up the rest of the season

 

[MVP]

Lakers are the favorites. No excuses. Anything less than a #1 seed and championship is an abject failure.

#1 seed...meh

No chip...sure

#17 soon come #reckoningzsn

 

[niceshoes247]

Number 4 coming?

Bulls are too talented to not be winning more games

They're probably missing that one player to bring them togdther

Kinda like how the suns was atrocious last yr. Then they bring in Rubio and all of a sudden they're winning games.

He would've benefited from playing with Steph big time.

Yeah. I was thinking that too; that they might benefit from bringing in a true pass first PG.

True or False: Every time LeBron had the most talented team in the league has has won the title, except 2010-2011?

 

[bballkid11]

WOW

 

[everysingletime]

Pelicans shouldn't be this bad, even if they are missing Zion and Favors.

 

[bostoiah]

Kemba, Tatum, Hayward all averaging 20+ through 6 games. Obviously its only...6 games but a different guy stepping up each game

Nah as someone who lives in Miami, I always watch em. Turned the game on and it was over when I saw the score.

 

[pmatic]

The Bulls have the skeleton of a decent team. The starting lineup makes sense from a personnel standpoint and the bench is okay. But the coach appears to be incompetent.

 

[JD617]

Sucks that Hayward essentially lost 2 years of his career/prime.

Same. Bulls should definitely be further along than they are.

He got paid for it he’s fine...

 

[friscostylez]

The Spurs medical staff weren’t wrong, he has tendinopathy. He sought second and third opinions. Yet they still showed the same thing.He rested 100 games and still had issues with it. Spurs were gladly going to rest him, they were the pioneers of it .

He just did not want to play for the spurs. Check the reciepts Kawhi was diagnosed with tendonitis. He didnt believe the spurs in saying that there was no way around it but tolerating it. He just wanted to be in LA.

Bottomline is the Spurs were right about the quad tendinopathy and Kawhi was being shady the whole year which irked the veteran’s etc and it blew up.

Why isn't this a bigger story lol

The entire time I thought it was spurs being shady that made them lose Kawhi

 

[JD617]

He got paid for it he’s fine...

Well of course he's fine financially but it's still unfortunate that he can never get those two prime years back.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

He got paid for it he’s fine...

Imagine feeling bad for MAGA PG

 

[HIM]

Bron avg 26-8-11 through his first 7 is just stupid

im gonna need him to keep this up and continue to play 35+ min against non-playoff teams. Play 82 bron!

 

[geno90221]

Lakers finish with best record you already know Bron getting that MVP...

What it do babyyyyyy!

Imo this is the NBA and Kawhi was next up. They should have kurtowed to his whims. Now we have Demar DeRozan.

Nobody cares about no damn Gordon Hayward
he was never a elite superstar talent anyway

Skilled for a white Guy that is all...
