First impression: dame should not rap

counterplan: dame should not rap abt bill walton. but he's actually got bars tho.

Why is kevin durant on the warriors how did we allow that to happen
― Clay, Saturday, 22 October 2016 04:32 (seven years ago) link
iirc cap spike smoothing was rejected

btw the cavs have some old ass role players. birdman, rjeff, dunleavy jr, james jones & dahntay jones will all be 36 or older.
― micah, Saturday, 22 October 2016 04:34 (seven years ago) link
dames music seems ponderous and dull if competent for an nba player, the most interesting thing he cld do from here on out is go with 100% bill walton content

i remember when kd called me in july and said "clay what team should i be on" and i said "any team except the warriors because that's just crazy, kev!" then we played some madden and drank sunny ds.

― Spottie, Saturday, 22 October 2016 04:53 (seven years ago) link
I listened to that dame lp today and it washed over me. Boring but serviceable goon otm
― Spottie, Saturday, 22 October 2016 04:54 (seven years ago) link
yeah the arena feed instead of commercials is a life changing experience
― lag∞n, Saturday, 22 October 2016 04:58 (seven years ago) link

hes totally living up to the hype afaict

im probably the only person who cares, but the spurs made their final roster picks. keeping bryn forbes (excited for him, this guy can shoot the 3) and nico laprovittola (yay argentina). they cut the other argentina player garino and one of the 1st rounders they signed from tony parker's french team, livio jean charles. that dudes numbers were super underwhelming at all levels, was rly surprised they had signed him, but i guess it was a cheap enough deal where they could test out his nba readiness without risking him sucking in a real game.
― 6 god none the richer (m bison), Saturday, 22 October 2016 19:01 (seven years ago) link
anyway, the spurs have a billion backcourt players now. i think theyve really improved their outside shooting. laprovittola, forbes, bertans can all come off the bench and spread the floor. but theyve got a lot of combo guards. aside fro the big names, the spurs are really young this year.

In spite of the fact that the Blazer roster has no major changes and might possibly be marginally improved over last season, I find my best guess about their eventual record, seeding and playoff success to be as uncertain as it was at the start of last season, when almost the whole roster was turned over and they lost 4 of 5 starters.
― a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Monday, 24 October 2016 03:10 (seven years ago) link
blazers were one of the healthiest teams last year iirc, my personal guess is they regress by a game or two
― call all destroyer, Monday, 24 October 2016 03:16 (seven years ago) link
yeah i think they'll flex back a bit. they prob played a little over their heads last season and i don't think adding evan turner is going to push their team anywhere. i think they prob end up more like the 7th seed than the 5ht.
― J0rdan S., Monday, 24 October 2016 03:19 (seven years ago) link
they'll have a much harder time pulling away from the pack this season if the jazz/grizz/mavs/pels are healthier. they kinda had everything break their way last year. my best guess is they'll be fighting for the bottom seeds
― ciderpress, Monday, 24 October 2016 03:22 (seven years ago) link
yeah and specifically in their division utah, denver, and minnesota all figure to be better to much better
― J0rdan S., Monday, 24 October 2016 03:30 (seven years ago) link
last year definitely had outlier written all over it
― Clay, Monday, 24 October 2016 04:25 (seven years ago) link
i think the hornets are the more likely one to stick of last year's surprise standings climbers

ayoooo
― Spottie, Monday, 24 October 2016 04:46 (seven years ago) link
blaze shield be ok, every single rotation player on that team should be better than they were last year except ET
― Spottie, Monday, 24 October 2016 04:47 (seven years ago) link
*blazers should be
yeah the optimistic side is that you've got a borderline superstar hitting his prime, a genuine scorer and shooter really only playing in his second full year with heavy minutes, and a bunch of ~25 year olds who now have a year of playing together under their belts, which is all pretty good stuff pointing to improvement this year. also stotts is v good too.
― Clay, Monday, 24 October 2016 04:50 (seven years ago) link
yeah i like the blaze from the pov of youth improving particularly mccollum and crabbe, dame seems a lil closer to peak tho he cld still have another leap in him, i watched a blaze preseason game and cj was balling out just getting whatever he wanted making perfect reads throwing some good passes hitting tough shots hitting easy shots he looked really good and confident in the flow
― lag∞n, Monday, 24 October 2016 05:40 (seven years ago) link
feel like hes one of thse players where when youre watching him youre like how is he doing this it doesnt make sense like hes not that quick or athletic or big it doesnt look like hes doing insanely skilled wizardry but the ball just keeps going in
― lag∞n, Monday, 24 October 2016 05:43 (seven years ago) link
I'd really like to see plums make a significant jump this year but he's never gonna really be a scorer so I guess it'd have to be in defense and idk like bruisering / intimidation factor. Dude needs to learn to swat some shots or something.
― Clay, Monday, 24 October 2016 06:04 (seven years ago) link
plums is such a disappointment, all the physical tools in the world and even flashes of having a good feel for the game but just cant put it together
― lag∞n, Monday, 24 October 2016 06:10 (seven years ago) link
Steve Kerr on the MVP race is pretty hamhanded but I like his conclusion: “I think KD is kind of like Gary Johnson, a third party guy who is going to come in and take a few votes from Steph, takes some from LeBron and then Damian Lillard wins the election. That’s my forecast.”
