NBA Season 2016/17

Warriors were turnover city and didn't respect the ball.
The bench unit looked like they met in the carpark.
Gasol and LA in 2016-17 will be a better unit than the 2015-16 LA and Duncan. Manu and Mills off the bench supporting Parker and Leonard. I'm a fan of Anderson. He's basically a more mobile Diaw with genuine 3pt range. Add in the energy of Simmons and Spurs have a deep team.

Wow just catching up on some highlights and The Brow goes for 50. Add 16 boards, 5 assists, 7 steals and 4 blocks. He showed the full arsenal with dunks, hooks, jump shots.
Some poor play at the end by the Pelicans and they lose.
Liking the look of the Pacers. Balanced scoring and a more interested Jeff Teague.

BREAKING: Kevin Durant has announced he has changed his mind about joining the Warriors and will now join the Spurs effective immediately

How did Steven Adams play in game one of the Russell Westbrook revenge tour?
Was quite aggressive on the offensive end. Took a lot more shots than the past

@ACT-Crusader did they win?

Yep. But it was against Philly. That's Ben Simmons-less Philly too
-
decent pay rise!
That is a staggering amount of money really, just mind boggling - almost $500k per week.

@taniwharugby that'll buy a decent chunk of roto vegas

Looks like Adams plans to help out the kids
Legend

Love this reaction from Balmer to a thunderous Westbrook dunk. He may own the Clippers but he's also a big ball fan clearly

It's a great start to the season with a number of games with playoff like atmosphere to them.
Yesterday's OKC v Clippers wasn't one of those games with both sides turning the ball over frequently but it was nice and close throughout with a million lead changes and CP3 and Westbrook getting into a good ol' shootout.
However the Celtics v Bulls was one and both these sides had key guys out but was high quality. I've never been a fan of D Wade, but Inlike what I've seen so far. Lopez and Gibson are an excellent frontcourt duo. There's a solid supporting cast there.
Things look good so far for Boston with a much greater balance. Let's hope it continues.

So, Russell Westbrook is going okay this season

That could never have been mate. OKC got that 12(adams) draft pick because of the Harden trade.
Westbrook cost OKC the game. He didn't relax until he got his last stat in the 7th triple double. Which to me means hes not playing for the team right now. And when he relaxed he took stupid fucken shots instead of being patient and rotating the ball to find a better shot.
Westbrook is a point guard. Traditionally when a point takes a shot and it misses he should head down court to start the defense. But he follows his shot and often he costs them possession contesting rebounds with his own players. Let your $100m centre take care of that shit man. Hes out for the stats.
Adams may not be as good in an open game but Kanter leaked points in the paint with Adams off. Donovan has a habit of making subs based purely on defensive match ups without looking at the flow of the game. He benched his best scorer tonight for most of the 2nd half. Adams was on fire and almost had a first half dubdub. It was weak sauce from both the coach and his star player.
