Official NBA 2016-2017 Thread - 30 teams, 1 goal. 2 weeks left, so much can happen!!

Come on man......its the first game of the season and its the Spurs. Once they get their chemistry up they are going to be beating everyone in the league effortless with the exception of the Spurs and Cavs. Maybe Clippers.
I think the Raptors will give them more problems than the Clippers, to me they are too goofy and are too old at the guard position.. Raptors at least have a puncher shot if their guards get hot...
 
What do you mean role players? The Warriors players all have a role lol. Past champions have had role players because they had no choice due to a salary cap. These dudes got Steph, Durant, Kyrie and Draymon. They all play a role. They lost today because of the bench. That can easily be fixed by getting a better rotation.

The worst thing that could have happened to the board was for them to lose, now that Rain Man ass fool is going to sprain his wrists tonight.... Good luck with that clown... I have him on ignore but I can always tell by the other posts who the hell yall are talking too! :lol:
 
Bruh this is more than JUST about the Warriors which is why every chance the media gets they are going to ride them... This is about KD and his choice, their choke last year, all that shit... They are the most hated team in the sport and game by game criticism comes along with that title Bruh...

That's a myth. No one really "hates" the Warriors lol. You got people mad at KD and the Warriors for doing the shit but this shit is all faux hate. They gotta fill the villain role I guess but shit is laughable. But you knew if they lost tonight this would happen. People will be excited. But let's don't kid ourselves. Warriors are going to be there at the end. And if not this year......definetly next year.

I don't even know who that is lol.
 
I'm happy GS got stomped tonight. Just being loaded with talent don't mean you're going to get a automatic win. You still gotta get out there and play. Teams aren't going to lay down to GS without putting up a fight. It ain't easy to win when everyone expects you too. Idiots saying they ruined the season. They about to get an A game nearly from every opponent.


Everyone have different ideas about things, so many folks here probably won't see it this way but it is what it is.

Let's be real,
*dubs losing is a shocker,
*dubs losing at home is a shocker
*losing the first game of the season a shocker
*dubs getting blown out is a shocker
*dubs getting blown out at home is a bigger shocker




Now this probably one outta two teams that probably could do this to them tonight, the other being the Thunder.
 
I think the Raptors will give them more problems than the Clippers, to me they are too goofy and are too old at the guard position.. Raptors at least have a puncher shot if their guards get hot...

Raptors and their backcourt been ass and choking for 2 years now. I'm done expecting anything from them. They are what they are. Chokers.
 
Long winded ass Road Rage... That fool sits in his basement in a chair rocking talking to himself! Ole Forrest Gump ass fool!! Watch, hes got at LEAST 3 good long ass rants in him tonight!! Droning on as Nigga! :lol:

OMG......not Road Rage.......can't talk to him about Sports man......all logic out thew window.
 
All due respect Bruh, but thats your opinion...A 29 point ass whipping at home that just actually happened is a fact, and THAT shit is embarrassing...
It is just one game. Nothing to be embarrassed about. The Warriors played terrible and did not shoot the ball well and still scored over 100. They will be fine

Going back to last year if you really want to look at the numbers they are actually on a 4 game losing streak right?

Its a shocker but I dont think it will matter; Like another poster said, good they got blown out; cant just walk out and not play; need to play better defense, cut down on the 3s and turnovers; I dont think their bench is an issue like others are saying; West can easily replace Mo; And McCaw and Ian I think can replace Barbosa; so no one else to replace because they still have Iggy and Livingston; they played like is was still preseason; but they will be fine in the end; You can almost see they really dont care about regular season since they won 73 games last year...

They had roll players now they have a bunch of stars... In my opinion Green could average 26 on the right team but he is forced to give up points so the others can score, you can see how Thompson numbers is being affected, a good roll player makes superstars better in the Warriors case so far their stars are robbing numbers from each other.. What they need is someone who can give them more shots (rebounds and defense)..
The season is still young maybe they can adjust their game so they can get more shots..

I agree they do choke, but they sometimes catch fire and when they do they are a problem... Look at the two times they played the Warriors last year and even this season in the preseason, their size, rebounding always give them trouble..
I am not saying they are better than the Warriors, all I am saying is that they are one of the few teams that can give the problems..

They catch fire for 2 games out of 7.....what's the point of that?
Why not, when have I been way off with any of my comments?

Bro....you blamed the air condition on why Lebron got cramps agains the Spurs........come on man. :lol:

I said that it was an old trick once used by the Celtics and I didn't put nothing past the NBA... Folks swore up and down it was bullshit, but I proved that the Celtics did the same exact thing during the finals against the Lakers..
I have a distrustful nature especially when white people are involved, so that's why I said what I said, but to say it never happened and it was impossible to do, that just being silly and ignorant...
 
Remember I know my NBA history and was the only on who knew that the Celtics pulled a similar stunt years earlier...

GSW did not lose their first game last season until when....December? :smh:

GSW did not lose their first game at home until when......April? :smh:


:lol: Today's Google summary, when will we ever see this again?

Nobody was talking that it's gonna take time shit when they were running through folks in the preseason. Warriors got smacked right in the chops.

1st time i ever rooted for SA
 
Do we credit Tim Duncan with last nights win? Or is it ok to admit Timmy played on good teams and for a great organization all these years?
 
A couple of observations.

Leonard's handles has greatly improved. Crazy how this dude's game improves year after year.

Letting Draymond shoot the 3 is a good strategy when there are 3 other prolific shooters on the court at the same time. Play the percentages I guess.

I like Curry attacking the basket more.

Warriors D should be interesting when defending the paint.

Spurs is not a 130 point team and Simmons will likely not score 15 pts while shooting 6-6 in the first half.

Spurs looked quicker than the Warriors last night. Probably an effort thing.

Gasol is a bitch.

Ian Clarke got a decent game.

The fact the Warriors got Anderson and ZaZa is just :smh: them guys are ass and annoying.
