Massive deals. Levert to the Pacers, Oladipo to Houston.

.

To quote the great Chuck Barkley: “KD went from the splash brothers to the dribble brothers.”

This why I can't take basketball seriously anymore, players have to much power, callin the shots, banding up together, deciding when to play, getting coaches fired, players traded, etc. The mindset is totally wrong, this ain't NBA, its reality TV

My little nephew dropped out of middle-school basketball because he didn't like having to compete for a spot against other kids. It's no wonder.

And speaking of this pantie wearing generation of men, Ben Simmons 5pts vs Miami Heat??

Mavericks need to ship Porzingis somewhere else, since he only plays really good when Dončić is not on the court.

Nets played a good game versus the Bucks. Was a damn good game overall. Harden and KD could work. I know Harden is mistaken for being selfish (he led the league in assists in 16-17 season) but he went out of his way to play team ball, even deferred to KD in the clutch. With Harden on point this could really work, but will Kryrie adjust? He's the third option now behind KD and Harden, no question.

For real? I love it man, and the number of talented players who keep popping up recently is just so promising. And there is so much unpredictability on who would be champions, or who will even make the playoffs.

And yes I think Ben Simmons is massively overrated, he hasn't progressed that much it's unfortunate.

Bit early but my money's on Jokic winning MVP. Only player in the MVP race averaging a triple dub. Nuggets need to step it up though.

Jokič has a better team than Mavericks, so I predict Jokič as well

Porzingis is robbing Dallas for money atm, he's playing below every level.

Nets :lol: smh

Every game is shoot out, who can score the most. Nash never played defence either so no surprises here I guess.

Westbrook had something to prove...but still, Nets had the game and they lost because of stupidity.

Kevin Garnett:

"I don’t think guys from 20 years ago could play in this game. Twenty years ago, guys used their hands to control players. Now you can’t use your hands. That makes defense damn near impossible. Can you imagine not hand-checking Michael Jordan? Naw. The fact that you can’t touch players gives the offensive player so much flexibility. Defensive players have to take angles away and stuff like that. But if you have any creativity and ambition, you can be a great offensive player in this league....

These guards changed the game. I don’t know if even the guards from 20 or 30 years ago could play in this time right here. It’s creative. It’s competitive. It’s saucy. You’ll get dropped! A [expletive] will cross you over and break your A.C.L. these days. The game is in a great place."

The Warriors are wasting Steph’s prime years and I wouldn’t be too mad if he decides to leave when this season is over. He gave so much to us but it’s painful as fuck to watch the Warriors nowadays. We should’ve just stayed in Oakland, moving to SF turned out to be a curse or something. we’re the Arsenal of the NBA :/

Looks like Drummond and Griffin might both get bought out. Would be coveted by LAC, LAL, and BKY.

After two torn ACLs and two missed seasons , no one really knows if we are ever going to see the old Klay back.

Maybe not the old Klay, but he can be good enough to start in that team, probably. If Wall can come back, and if Durant and Rose can still play at a high level (okay Rose is a bit more inconsistent), why not K.Thompson?

not to worried bout the guy who scored 60 with 11 dribbles.....he does not carry the ball he does not dribble he does not really dunk all he need s to do is catch and shoot. think he s gonna come back very close to the pre ACL klay..
also his presence on the floor is gonna give everyone more room cause even if his movemnet is limited you still cant leave the guy alone cause his shooting is gonna be there
