@TeWaio and loving every moment of it 😉
I was a big Michigan fan during the Glen Rice era and Rob Pelinka was a good role player and tenacious, but he has cooked the golden goose at the Lakers.
if (and it's a massive if) LBJ and Davis can play 60 games each they'll make the playoffs.
I agree. Pat Bev for all his fuckwitness is a good addition too. Can shoot, defend, and plays hard.
And he takes minutes off Russ....
If Schroeder can be solid, that will be good too. But in reality AD is made of glass

Yeah, a lot depends on old peaheart AD. He could be such a weapon, at his best he's top 3 in the league at both ends. But he's mentally weak and notnthebvpdybis a bit fragile too. Shit combo
-
@voodoo Darvin Ham wants to play him at the 5 and AD wants to be a 4. I'd say he's more chance of packing the sads than playing 60 games...
I do like the Pat Bev addition. He's an old school baller with a bit of toughness. But him, LBJ and Russ on the court together is not going to work!

He’s out for 3-4 weeks to start the season.

Yeah. I guess he shares minutes with Pat Bev when he gets fit

opening day sees last years finalists get Ws to open the year
Laker fans have written this team off after 48 minutes. Some cracking social media spite (if you need evidence LBJ can still hustle, watch a Lakers fast break). Box scores okay for their big 3, but apparently defense and effort at zero.
Interesting today. The Spurs are getting flogged at home by a Hornets team without LaMelo, operation super tank is off to a flier. The Pelicans are smoking the Nets. Thus far everything else seems to be going to script.
let the loooong narrative-ridden odyssey begin

The Suns v Mavs game almost had a playoff feel to it and it was opening night.
Enjoyed the Knicks and Grizzlies game. Knicks played a mix of excellent and very frustrating ball. But I think there is more upside if they have that right mix of shooters and slashers on the court.
And that Banchero dunk

This Spurs tank job is going appallingly

I watched their game today. 76ers D was so bad the Spurs couldn't help but make shots. Management missed have been pissed.

They played very well today. Loved how they defended the two bigs for the T’Wolves. They are getting solid contributions from 4 or 5 guys every night. 5-2 and Pop looks refreshed!
Warriors second unit sucks.
Lakers finally get a W after some better outside shooting.
Donovan Mitchell is on a mini tear right now. The Cavs went 23-50 from 3 today. Kevin Love turning back the hands of time with a quiet 8 3s.

Kyrie just can't stop being a distraction off the court. And an ignorant one at that
Kyrie’s an egg.
That is my favourite Nets uniforms, takes me back to the Dr J days and also the Kenny Anderson and Derrick Coleman days.

Haha Nets win without Ben Simmons!

He is the very definition of a wage thief right now
-
@canefan I’ve only watched a condensed version of the game but they looked far more fluent today. It’s not all Ben’s problem because there are ways to make him be more effective, but a simple reality is that the spacing for KD and Kyrie to work is better when he’s not in the lineup.

Did you know....that by the time Simmons finishes his current contract in a couple of years....that he will have earned approximately $301m aussie dollars...?????
-
@voodoo yep. Back when he was good 😉 he had a few sponsors too.
I genuinely hope he comes good and works out the best way to play again.
By the way, DeAndre Jordan hit a 3 the other night and he has a more funky body position on his shot than Ben.

You know what, and I feel dirty for saying this, but I actually don't. I think he's a massive fckwit. He's arrogant, he played the race card at the casino, he played the mental health card with Philly, and he refused to play and then demanded full pay despite being absolutely loaded amd screwing his team.
I think he's a massive tool, and hope he never gets another contract, let alone success on the court.
That did feel dirty, but I find it hard to feel otherwise.
Sorry everyone...

You bag an Ozzie and feel bad for it?
If I could be bothered finding it, I’d have the ‘shame, shame’ gif from GOT with naked Celsi here.
We’ve all got a good imagination though.
I remember the scene well, and I sincerely think you for reminding me of it 🙏
