Westbrook must have spent the summer watching film of Rondo

Passing up all these open layups to pad his assist totals like the gawd:wow:

Their defense is really gonna be shaky. They should have tried to get some perimeter D guys in the off-season. Oladipo can play D, but he is going to have his hands full being the number 2 scorer.

Breh they blew a 30 point lead, I don't care if it's preseason or not that is triddash. But it's kinda funny cause the Real Madrid fans going crazy while OKC like eh, just preseason. Which is right, but damn don't just roll over lol

Kevin Love getting the board and starting the break now? He looked a lot quicker in that scrimmage, almost white small forward ish.

He's in good shape. And his form, release, and shot base actually look correct for once.

We'll see how long it lasts but it looks like he's ready to reestablish himself this season.

People forget that Love, Irving, and Shumpert spent all of last summer rehabbing and not really working on their game.

Could be an interesting wrinkle to your offense if he can bring the ball up, dude looked like he took some HGH over the offseason cause he wasn't moving like his legs were broken. Hitting side step jumpers, I was like "Is that Kevin Love?"


Kay Felder....love that kids game.

HGH...I don't know officer. :mjpls:

He looked fat and slow as fukk in Game 7. But at the parade he looked thin again. It's always weird with him.

Felder is a true PG with speed and vision. Something the Cavs haven't had in years. I really do hope they use the PG by committee approach in the regular season depending on the match up. Felder, McRae, Shump, and Liggins all need the reps there.

Don't think I agree with this tbh, if he's 100% cleared by February I think he should get some of his rookie reps in

I still think it hurt Droses comeback that he waited out that entire season. He just had so much fukking rust to shake after that extended layoff

Then you look at a guy like PG13, or MJ back in his 2nd season. They came back from fractures, got some late season reps in and were 100% ready to go the following season with minimal rust

Gotta hurt being a 76ers fan.

They weren't really looking forward to this season anyway. Way too many holes in their roster and so many unanswered questions about the direction of their team.

But they got to be disappointed with the way that Simmons is handled and how his people conduct business. I'm all for getting every cent I can out of my employer but he hasn't made a good impression on them from a basketball standpoint, his people make him come off as a diva. He should WANT to play this season, it's a fractured toe, he should want play through or recover from that and keep it moving. Instead he has his people make his decisions for him.
