Buddy looking good. Gotta keep up with his defensive assignments and limit the turnovers though. If all goes well we'll have him in a year or two. All according to plan.Pelicans not losing a game this year tbh

Uhhh yes. You got west, zaza, and a rookie? Both those guys are old and aren't as defensively effective like Bogut or Ezeli. May not matter at all but don't be a blind homer and not see that area is a concern

Now that Simmons is done.... We got our new ROY: DUN DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNNN
I think Minnesota might be a lil 2 loaded with young guys ready 2 prove themselves 4 him 2 win it, kinda like the lakers with Ingram. Would surprise me if buddy won roy tho

We lost a 7 footer and a 6'11 guy. We signed a 7 footer and a 6'11 guy and drafted a 7 footer. I don't see where we got smaller breh. Now if you want to talk skilled shot blocking then say that but we're not smaller than we were last season.
Re-upped my league pass

I wish no harm on no man
But I sure wish to see the look on Durant's face when
a) the Thunder eliminate the Warriors in a 4-2 WCF upset with Westbrook averaging 35-10
b) the Cavs abuse the Warriors' weaknesses (interior/inability to get key rebounds/arrogance after a great regular season) and LeBron's focus, Kyrie's talent and the Cavs' ability to bounce back let's them win the title back-to-back. Start of a legacy, end of a hypetrain.
As for my Lakers, I just want to see progress. I have high hopes with the new coaching staff in place - no specific player (except DR if he keeps his mind right) exploding, we are in rebuild mode. Ever since Kobe tweaked his ankle when the Lakers were making that unlikely comeback to go the Playoffs, we ain't been the same. The front office remains awful.
For the Knicks (and Melo specifically): I see nothing but disappointment lined up. I'll actually try to catch a Cavs - Knicks game because LeBron (legendary players) tend to go off in the Garden. Rose is great, but comes across as just a step too slow. Noah is just there, that's about it. Porzingis is talented but I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being his last season as a Knick.. and Carmelo: you have to respect his offensive prowess - but Knicks fans need to come to grips with the fact that he is no NBA Champion type leader or player. Melo plays for Melo. Drafted in the same year as LeBron with a lot of hype as well - Melo shows year in year out that he is a great shooter. When he plays for the Olympic Team and he does not get double teamed early, he can go off. When he is feeling himself on a good night he can do that in the NBA. But he can not and will likely never be able to lead a team to 4 wins against a team that plays serious defense and/or and can really score. Classic example of someone thrown into the leader role because he can score but who just is not a leader. Looks bad for the Knicks.
Hyped af for the tipoff of the new season. Also hoping to see as much of Craig Sager as possible on the sidelines.
I got Cavs-Thunder as the NBA Finals, Cavs win 4-2.
Let's do this! We byke, if this season's anything like the last one..
Good look OP for starting this thread.

I have seriously no clue why he's still on the team.
2015-2016 stats:
7.3 points
1.8 rebounds
0.6 assists

It was written in the Bible
Once the Warriors can figure it out its 76-6 undefeated after all star break. KD got so many good looks. League fukked up once he shakes off the nervousness. They can go big with Klay/Durant/west/Zaza/Javale lineup. Death ball with steph/klay/iggy/green/Durant or Shaun/klay/iggy/green/Durant. McCaw has promise and Ian Clark looking good too. Steve Kerr don't mess this up

Great rebuttal.
As usual, you are delusional. No point

Fam your big rotation is west green and Za. Don't mention some rookie who won't receive playing time or McGhee. Is he even guaranteed? Not to mention the fact is he sucks and hasn't played a full season since 2012. You lost nearly every big and you want to try to play it off like you got adequate replacements. Stop it

I was told Festus wouldn't receive playing time as a rookie and that was a lie. David West is better than Speights. Zaza is a better rebounder than Bogut. Festus will be missed but I honestly believe he can be replaced by McGee.
