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

Nobody else is worth a damn... Which is probably why PG isnt wearing green as we speak...

aint shit he can do if he get traded he don't have a clause
celtics just know they ain't about shit.
brown is going to be dope
if they had brown 2 years into the future then id understand dude is going to be dope af.
however. unless the rook somehow turns a huge corner he's going to be up and down and that's ok he's a rookie.

im just glad we didn't go after al hortford like ppl were saying we were.
so glad that didn't happen
 
the nets actually tried to have a good team
they tried to get crab who's helping the blazers make the playoffs and johnson who's helping the heat be in the hunt.
their offer sheets got matched so they ended up with lin


The crazy thing is Lin wasn't doing bad for them...don't know if they would've made the playoffs tho

So he was 6'9, shorter than his listed height at 6'10 but now he's actually really 6'11? Okay.

I think he's probably 7 foot but doesn't want to claim it on some Durant/Garnett shit

Noel 6'11 and their about the same shoulder wise
 
Bruh. Baffling.


Initially I thought this as well but considering they had to give a top 3 pick holding on to that pick is actually a good idea. PG on the Celtics still doesn't make them better than Cleveland and dam sure doesn't put them close to Spurs or GS. They also have a lotto pick in 2018. They can draft build a team through the draft like GS did and. Also Jalen browns going to be nice
 
Real talk James Harden and Westbrook single season accomplishments are killing James this year and them dudes didn't "rest" so hell no James doesn't deserve MVP this year.

Rested and still will end up with #1 seed and a finals appearance. Hes also been playing 40 minutes a game for 14 years now.. Hes earned rest.. Them other cats have not.

Really? So only Lebron deserves rest? FOH. Those other players grind just as hard and they don't even give resting a thought. Old school mentality. As far as #1 seed, he doesn't have a lot of competition for that in the East. Even with 73 wins the Spurs were on the Warriors ass all season. Thunder too. Rockets balling. Stop it.

You mentioned Russ and James.. Im telling you the difference between them and Bron. Cant say they grind as hard when the numbers say Bron has been doing it at a high level, playing 100 games a year for 7 years straight and 40 minutes a game since a teenager.. Not acknowledging the gross disparity in minutes played and burden carried is fucking idiotic. And wtf is "old school" mentality? Bron has already played more minutes than all them niggas... and at a higher level at a longer duration. Im not saying hes the only one to deserve rest... Im saying he deserves rest.

"If I'm healthy, I'm playing" is old school mentality.

Of course Bron has more mileage. Dude came straight out of high school and is always in the playoffs. Kudos. But you can give employee of the year to a dude resting over one that has been to work almost every day of the year and putting up the best single year performance ever.

Brown is going to be so dope.

I have no problem with older cats resting. Like it or not a dude who's been playing for 13 years is an older cat.

You not gonna convince me Eric Bledsoe needs rest
or Aldridge needs rest
or anybody on Gs needs rest all the time
