i just have this premonition now that lin is going to drop 30 on the celtics in the season opener

ciderpress, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 13:41 (eight years ago) link

uhh horford is gonna be so good for the celtics this is the most perfect fit ever

lag∞n, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 14:07 (eight years ago) link

also i'm kind of confused about the case, i thought it was a civil case?

k3vin k., Wednesday, 12 October 2016 16:56 (eight years ago) link

the current case is civil and hes under criminal investigation too

Weirdest who he play for this year might be Jarrett jack on the hawks

He's like the least hawksy player ever and also didn't he shred his Achilles last year?

Yeah I uhh I need to calm down about the c's this year but I think they're going to be incredible even if they still need a #1 scorer who isn't under six feet; horford in the middle with that defense is gonna be disgusting

gis for westbrook shark jump (agent hibachi), Wednesday, 12 October 2016 17:53 (eight years ago) link

they ill be top 4 seed.

Cle
Tor
Ind
Bos
Atl
NY
Det
Chi

I think Charlotte barely misses, they lost some depth and marvin williams / nic batum were on contract years last year so i think they regress

Spottie, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:07 (eight years ago) link

don't understand why ppl are so high on the pacers

ciderpress, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:19 (eight years ago) link

they upgraded some spots and cleared more playing time for Turner. PG another year healthier and he's only 26

Spottie, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:24 (eight years ago) link

they also downgraded their coach idk how big a factor that is

ciderpress, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:31 (eight years ago) link

lol forgot about that!

Spottie, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:36 (eight years ago) link

i think boston will be the 2 seed and rather easily

ya feel like teague is exactly the type of player theyve needed forever particularly

lag∞n, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:44 (eight years ago) link

the also really need a #1 scorer but maybe turner can be that, prob still too young tho

lag∞n, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:44 (eight years ago) link

yeah but he'll help and teague is a better scorer than hill was.

Spottie, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 18:51 (eight years ago) link

forgot parsons is now on the grizz. i keep waiting for them to blow it up. i guess they did fight really hard in the first round last year while missing a bunch of dudes.

brimstead, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 19:53 (eight years ago) link

grizz def should have blown it up after last year. they can still be like the 5 seed but what does it even matter

ciderpress, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 19:59 (eight years ago) link

hard to blow it up when u have an injured player on the first year of a max deal

lag∞n, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 20:05 (eight years ago) link

i don't think they should have blown it up but giving chandler parson's knees a max deal could end up being very bad

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 12 October 2016 20:06 (eight years ago) link

aldo giving conley the biggest contract in nba history

Spottie, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 20:11 (eight years ago) link

some dubious contract on that team for sure

lag∞n, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 20:27 (eight years ago) link

I can't wait for the first Hawks/Celtics game. The over/under should be like 125. Both teams should be ridic on D

Heez, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 20:58 (eight years ago) link

lol

Spottie, Wednesday, 12 October 2016 21:20 (eight years ago) link

if by some miracle the grizz are healthy it's a great starting 5 imo

i hope everyone checked out this wonderful piece on bill kennedy: http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/17764735/nba-referee-bill-kennedy-long-coming-story

wheels gotta fall off zbo sometime soon

brimstead, Thursday, 13 October 2016 01:25 (eight years ago) link

he's 35 and i know my wheels fell off in the last year

Clay, Thursday, 13 October 2016 01:50 (eight years ago) link

he'll come off the bench right

micah, Thursday, 13 October 2016 03:27 (eight years ago) link

Reading through that Kennedy story and that place where the karaoke bar is right down the street from me! lol i think i know which subdivision he's in. i gotta hunt him down and shake his hand. might catch him at the fish fry. good story.

Suns came back from 30 down last night to beat the jazz on a dunk by goodwin

the bledsoe/knight/booker/warren/len lineup has been fun to watch

Spottie, Thursday, 13 October 2016 16:26 (eight years ago) link

i just have this premonition now that lin is going to drop 30 on the celtics in the season opener

i can actually see that happening and the nets still losing by at least 8 points

agree w/ most of the teams in that list altho in slightly diff order: CLE/BOS/TOR/IND/ATL/DET/CHA/CHI

i think clifford's coaching intellect will make enough lemonade out of certain lemons (like hibbert) to keep them right at the threshold

NYK would make the offs, all things being equal, over chicago - but i'd bet on butler/rondo/wade staying healthier than rose/noah

disappointed in all these non-believers of the orlando magic theory

ciderpress, Thursday, 13 October 2016 17:35 (eight years ago) link

think they'll be more competitive but they have some major issues w that roster. really deep at the 4/5 with four guys that could start. they are talking about moving gordon to the 3 but that's not ideal.

elfrid, fournier, gordon, ibaka, vooch is an interesting starting 5 but that bench looks thin on paper

I bought a ticket to the one game the Bulls come to Phoenix this season and I'm more excited to see Suns than my Bulls. Trying to decide if I want to buy Knicks/Suns tix too. They're cheap!

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 13 October 2016 17:45 (eight years ago) link

nice, i want to buy tix to the knix game too. i went in on some season tix with some friends and got 8 games. i won the first pick (warriors obv), some other highlights include both yungwolves games, okc and the pacers. missed out on cavs and knicks. kinda pumped for 2016-17 suns for sure, should be a fun team.

Spottie, Thursday, 13 October 2016 17:51 (eight years ago) link

hopefully PHX crowd will improve too. kinda cool to be able to take over their arena w/fellow Bulls fans but depressing in the long run.

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 13 October 2016 17:58 (eight years ago) link

i need to get some tickets this year but im worried its gonna be impossible

marcos, Thursday, 13 October 2016 18:00 (eight years ago) link

yeah i think the booker hype train is gaining some steam. i am p embarrassed as a warriors fan at the suns/dubs games here now. used to just be like 40 of us spread out giving polite nods of respect to each-other, now its a home game. xp

Spottie, Thursday, 13 October 2016 18:03 (eight years ago) link

i still havent seen lebro in person so i might try and get into that one anyway.

Spottie, Thursday, 13 October 2016 18:03 (eight years ago) link

to boo him obv
