@dik cashmere Idk fam.. KD looking like KD bruh
NBA Season is Returning This Year!!!!!!!
- Thread starter DAHITMAN
- Start date
Honestly I haven't seen much of him lolHow's he look so far?
I was watching the new episode of the mandalorian lol
KZ looks pretty good though
Yeah, there only to peseason games so not a large sample of these young guys. Maxey from the Sixers looks real good though. Like him a lot. I think he's gonna be the steal of the draft.
KD looks normal
He might rewrite the thoughts of an achilles injury, but part of it is that he is so skilled that athleticism and quickness aren't the biggest part of his game.
Plus he's still in his early 30's.
Gobert turned down a max extension with the Jazz....
said he wants the same super max that Giannis got.....
FOH
Report: Jazz offered Rudy Gobert standard max extension, but he wants super-max
Yes, the same super-max extension worth more than $228 million that Giannis Antetokounmpo just signed.www.yahoo.com
Some stuff he does you just have to shake your head.
I wonder if this is his normal routine.
And this is superstition times ten
Nice. Wish I could go to Brooklyn to see a Sixers game this year. I gotta get out to that arena. Probably will take the train when I go. Although I have passed that arena driving to see the Flyers play the Islanders last year at the Nassau Coliseum. Never realized watching hockey on tv how small that arena is. Only seats about 12,000. It's like a college basketball arena.
I think the real difference is his injury isn't on his launch (power) leg which would be his left as a right handed player. He's injury occured on his left so his first step should still be solid considering that his jumpshot will always be there
Example

Yeah bruh you might as well until next season cause of Governor love to shut shit down so I can't see us having no games this season. Hell we can't even do indoor dining in NYC right now
Dirk was very fortunate the heat choked; Kobe had Shaq, then he had Gasol; Timmy had Paker, Manu, Robinson, and a great coach, among others; who does Giannis have?
It's one thing to hug before a game. It's another to go through a season with him. You probably would be ready to punch Kyrie in his shit after 13 minutes of hanging out with him. Some people are built to be a pain in the ass to everyone. He's that guy for whatever reason.

You're doing a lot of presuming there.
You don't hang around the game to chop it up with a nigga you not cool with. Only cats got issues with Kyrie is Lebron and his people
watching that game....
Does Brooklyn NEED Harden?
Does Brooklyn NEED Harden?
Not really. Just listen to him. At some point it can't be the media's fault 24/7. It can't be the fans fault. It can't be my grandmother's fault. Hell she dead than a muthafucka anyways. Kyrie is a certified pain in the ass who thinks he has to prove something to everyone every single minute of the day. We all have encountered someone like this in our lives at some point and it's a pain in the ass being around them for long periods of time consistently. He's a tremendous talent. He just a fuckin pain in the ass. That's what he has displayed so thats what I'm rolling with.
Hey guys, we got another shooter
Depends
Is Simmons available or not?
And why does Lebron and his people have a problem with Kyrie?
But you’re right, his ex-teammates did seem happy to see him.
Or happy to see him now that he’s off the team!

Kyrie is just OUT THERE
I think Lebron gets frustrated cause Kyrie got a little bit of bitch in him
He does the fake public apology and kumbyyah texts and then a few seconds later...
flips.
I personally hate that sh*t too.
I personally hate it too. Say what you say and stand in it, we know that Kyrie doesn’t like Lebron. So say it and let it be.
Houston WANTS to keep him
But Harden wants out
IMO you keep him until he becomes too much of a locker room cancer or until you get a trade package that knocks your socks off.
Other than that, a team of Wood, Harden, Wall, Boogie, Gordon, House, Nwaba, PJ could be a 3 or 4 seed
i've seen u post her a lot? name?
I read that Simmons is now available... but Philly wants more in return than just Harden to make that deal.
I think all teams should stand pat. Your Heat don't need him and look like they're coming back just as strong as last year. If Philly is really sold on the Embiid and Simmons experiment working then give it to the all star break at least, but 1 year is most ideal. Brooklyn has a healthy kd that looks a deadly as ever along with Kyrie weird ass and a deep bench so do they even need him???
houston has a squad now and if this Wood kid plays to his potential Harden just gained an Anthony Davis clone.
Everybody needs to chill... this season is gonna be special

Idk man.. just seems like he's being him and people can't vibe with it.

Bron tried to trade that man after they won the chip for PG.
Morris and Rozier was worst than Kyrie
False.
Kyrie is just a coon. Alot of black people dont like him nor did they like him growing up, hence him hanging with CACs and having a baby by one. Its not really that deep. Black men that act like Kyrie tend to get ostracized in our community. Bron isnt the one constantly throwing shade in the media, Kyrie's last quote shading Bron was during the playoffs while he was sitting at home so of course he's gonna get heat for it.
Now he's playing this fake pseudo miltant act because Bron and the Lakers are the current champs, so he has to portray himself as "anti-establishment" to rile up his white fans.
The Trade
Report: Kyrie Irving Trade for Paul George, Eric Bledsoe Was Explored by Cavs
TIMOTHY RAPP
JANUARY 03, 2018
The Cleveland Cavaliers reportedly were in talks to trade Kyrie Irving to the Phoenix Suns in a three-team deal in June, according to Jackie MacMullan of ESPN:
"In mid-June, shortly before [former general manager David] Griffin left, team and league sources confirm, the Cavs explored a three-way deal with Phoenix and Indiana that would have shipped Irving and [Channing] Frye to the Suns and brought Eric Bledsoe and Paul George to Cleveland. The Suns resisted, unwilling to part with their No. 4 pick, which they planned to use to draft Josh Jackson."
That trade came a month before Irving requested one out of Cleveland, ultimately landing with the Boston Celtics in a deal that brought Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder, Brooklyn's 2018 first-round pick and Ante Zizic to Cleveland.
Irving called the details of his trade request "distorted."
"I didn't feel the need to say anything because I knew the truth, and so did they," he told MacMullan. "So it didn't matter what others said."
"They didn't want me there," he added.
According to MacMullan's report, the team's trade talks in June "stung" Irving, and he became convinced that LeBron James was behind the potential deal, though "team and league sources refute that, saying that it was [former general manager David] Griffin who initiated the trade talks with Phoenix."
Those conversations stalled, then Griffin stepped down. Attempts at landing Paul George in a three-way deal with Indiana and Denver that would have sent Kevin Love to the Nuggets fell through (as did attempts to trade for Jimmy Butler). Irving ultimately made his request to be moved, though he wasn't pleased with how his request was perceived.
"I thought there would be a sense of confidentiality on everyone's part. I'm not going to point fingers, even though I know fingers will get pointed anyway, but the way it happened was disappointing," he said. "It was hurtful how it spun out. It turned into a narrative where everyone got to have an opinion on why I should do this, why I should do that. I'm this. I'm that. I'm selfish. That's fine because that's not reality. It was just a bunch of noise."
From there, the trade to Boston materialized, though Irving made it clear he didn't orchestrate the move to the Celtics.
"There's a misconception how all this went down," Irving told MacMullan. "I was traded to Boston. I had no say at all in where they sent me. There were no conversations like, 'OK, this is an opportunity we can pursue.' It wasn't a recruitment process."
But perhaps all's well that ends well. Irving, 25, has thrived in Boston, averaging 24.8 points, 4.9 assists and 1.2 steals per game. He's shooting a career-best 48.9 percent from the field and draining threes at a 40.4 percent clip.
He's established an excellent rapport with Al Horford and has seemed to be a natural fit in Brad Stevens' offense. In the process, he's led the Celtics to a 30-10 record. Only Golden State (29-8) has a better winning percentage this season.
The core of Irving, Horford, Jaylen Brown, rookie Jayson Tatum and Gordon Hayward (when he returns from injury) is incredibly promising. Add in either the Los Angeles Lakers 2018 first-round pick (if it lands in the range of 2-5) or the Sacramento Kings 2019 first-rounder if the L.A. pick doesn't convey, and the Celtics are loaded with players and assets to build around Irving for the foreseeable future.
Real coon shit
