Random NBA Observations 2017 - 2018

I did and I stand by it. I said he was an elite athlete, but i personally reserve the term freak athlete for once in a lifetime athleticism such as MJ, Bron, Vince, Wilkins, Spud Webb etc...he not in that category imo. he's not as explosive as those guys. If somebody considers him one thats fine, but my use of that phrase is much more narrow.

He can cover distances of the court in less strides than anyone in the modern era, yet he's not a "freak athlete". You quite obviously have NOT watched Giannis in person. Can you please explain your definition of athleticism.

Suns should move Chriss while there’s still some intrigue. He doesn’t have it.

But would they get much value for him in return? I guess it would depend on whether they'd prefer personnel or picks but I don't think he fetches much in return with regards to either.

Lebron James out here sounding like Rick James.


"Im here for the long haul.

Im here for this season."

Toronto goin to the finals this year

Toronto goin to the finals this year

Nothing wrong with that if they do. This Raptors squad would've run through all those bum ass teams in the early '00s (Eastern conference). They've been on the cusp for a while now, but LeBron's been standing in their way. Ain't nothing wrong with losing to a top-5 OAT player in his prime.

I’d take a pick for him..But that team desperately needs vets.

Im not thinkin deep like that bruh.. Just odd seeing Toronto in the finals.. New and different is decent to me in the NBA...

P.S. My comment doesn't deserve an 8 page term paper about stats.. Thank you in advance

I would agree if Lowry and Derozan played up to their normal level of play. It's so hard for me to take them serious with their failures in the playoffs from previous years. I at least want to see them really go down fighting.
