Official NBA 2017-2018 Thread - Final day of the regular with playoff seating still unknown

F this video and F Waiters. Dude out here balling and shit. His almost game winning shot almost gave me a heart attack.
Man I was so pissed at them last night almost wanted to throw something at the TV sorry asses

I went to the Heat game last year in Denver and it was pretty much the same game except Heat won. They should've won last night too.

Nuggets got bailed out on that foul call on Milsap at the 3 point line. I was surprised they called it that late in the game.
 
Lol what you think now?
I am still disappointed in Kyrie. I thought he was one of the best guards in the league up there with Curry and Westbrook.

I thought I would see him taking over games and being this unstoppable player which has not happened yet this season.

What I do like is that he playing really good team ball and the ISO Kyrie has only shown up very little this season. You can even go further and say the ISO Kyrie came out when needed when the shot clock was expiring. Boston seems to be in a nice groove also
 
Warriors came out mad as fuck in that 3rd.:lol:

Nuggets were hype as fuck in the 2nd qtr except for Richard Jefferson. Nigga was probably like, "Calm down. Y'all don t know what I know".
 
You asked for it fam

Already. I gotta talk shit and have some fun during the season. Hell I bet on the Broncos beating the Eagles tomorrow as well. That's could be an easy 0 for 2. Shit if I aint got faith in my squads no one will.

Plus it wasn't unrealistic. Not in Denver anyway. Proud of them in the 1st half. Warriors stopped playing games in that 3rd though. Got damn.

Lol. Nuggets asked for this ass whooping though. It may only be a regular season game but Warriors didn't forget last year in Denver.

Well now I can go back to not talking shit about the Warriors. Feels weird lol. I live vicariously through y'all in the playoffs.

Them cats minds were still in China to begin the season playing lazy as fuck defensively.
Starting to play better on that end now.

Whenever I see the mop up crew out there I know it was a good night
 
I wouldn't say that
bron has 57 fucking points and they won by 8
That's a fair point. Cavs still in a bit of trouble.

I got NBA season pass for free with direct tv. They have a promotion giving away the NFL ticket. I called and complained about the weather and price of service and threatened to switch service. Before they could talk me out of changing my mind I mentioned I don't even watch football but watch NBA and would stay if they switched the NFL for the NBA package so they did. Shit it's been on and popping ever since.
 
Lol what you think now?

:lol:

His form wad a question, not his accuracy.

None of them came in with that listed to be one of their strengths tho, and none of them are shooting as bad as Lonzo. Kid from Chicago is shooting well tho...

His accuracy was a question, because that's why they were questioning if his form would need to be changed. Because he would be playing against taller and more athletic guards and he his release is awkward and low.

Marrkkanan is a guard? He's 6'10 and has always been a stretch four :confused: With more shots at the rim. I hope so. If he didn't shoot well he wouldn't be in the league, because it sure as hell isn't his defense or rebounding.

"Ball might have the most unorthodox shooting mechanics you will ever see, but he is still a tremendous shooter, particularly off the catch and from long range"
"In addition, Ball is an above average shooter on the move, as he does a good job getting his feet underneath him when coming off of a screen ... He also has a lethal step-back jumper, which is one of his go-to scoring options in isolation situations or off the pick and roll ... The combination of his deep range and comfort with the step-back can be a tough guard for opposing defenses"


http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...knesses-of-top-point-guards-in-2017-nba-draft
"Three-point shooting
Questionable mechanics didn't stop Ball from drilling 80 threes at a 41.2 percent clip. He has unbreakable confidence in his shot, as well as deep NBA range. Many of his triples were up to five feet behind the arc. Ball also hit 21 unassisted threes, looking comfortable separating and releasing off step-back footwork."


http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-la-lakers-drafting-lonzo-ball-with-no-2-pick
"Aesthetics aside, though, it's a lethal shot. During his lone season at UCLA, Ball fired 5.4 long-range looks a night and converted them at a 41.2 percent clip."
""Ball's statistical profile is that of an elite jump-shooter—for a point guard—who rarely messes around with mid-range attempts and has NBA range on his threes," Luke Winn of Sports Illustrated wrote."

Ok... denial is cool. Articles are only 'random' because they shit on YOUR narrative about dude. I know damn well Magic didn't draft Dude #2 to be Rondo and to shoot 30% , 25% on 3s and 50% from the line tho, I know that much. :D
Haven't been able to find ONE article stating he would struggle with accuracy thou... :D

Nothing to deny, most people who knew basketball wondered about his shot. And I damn sure don't have the desire to google some bullshit articles.

Also most rookies outside of like a Steph or Klay don't shoot good.

What you just showed is that his outside shooting will improve. It's one of the easiest aspects of your game to improve.

Have you read Magic's comments? He commented about his leadership and being a pass first point guard and changing the culture...which he's done. He never commented about him scoring or outside shooting.

Stick to talking about your team...you don't know more than I do about mine. Because I'm damn sure not concerned about Ben Simmons shooting 0% from three.

Ok... haven't read anyone or any articles about him having accuracy issues...

You have one player who doesn't attempt to shoot threes, because he can't

and another dude with a broken shot and shoulder who was the first pick, who's out for a month

and you're trolling another team :smh:

I'm sure he'll start hitting the shots soon. Shot is horrible looking but it's been effective until now. When he takes it to the basket his shots of of by just a little. He'll get it together.

Glad to see that the advice of being more aggressive resonated with him last game.

Doesn't matter and no, I wasn't trolling shit! You are the one on that whiny hyper sensitive bitch shit!! You really sound like a little ass kid, I mad a fucking comment about the fact that I believe Dude is under performing, and if you or anybody else says you expected him to shoot so fucking horribly and that you are satisfied with that shit are a bunch of lying motherfuckers who are in denial and copping fucking pleas.

YOU decided to comment on my post, I posted proof, and there are a LOT more pre-draft articles to support that one of his strengths was SUPPOSED to be being a great shooter which he is failing miserably at, and you get all sensitive, bring Ben up, yet I am trolling YOUR team!! FOH with this 3rd grade weak ass bullshit! Regardless of Fultz injury, which do happen, Lonzo is looking more and more fucking overrated each game, and contrary to popular belief there is no proof he will get better at shooting fucking bricks!

Fultz is hurt, but at least hes not healthy and looking like a FUCKING BUST so far....

Say what you want about Ben but he is head and shoulders better than Lonzo in every fucking category, EVERY CATEGORY and will only get better because he doesn't even know what he's doing yet and is still very young! He shits on Lonzo and you motherfucker would DIE to have him running point instead of that overrated brick shooting motherfucker!

So again, I made ONE statement, you quoted it and because I didn't back off of my original point you IMMEDIATELY go into this whiny pathetic drolling you usually do! Don't quote my post with this feminine shit Bruh, you sound like a bitch!

Enjoy the Bricks Nigga!! :roflmao3:

He gotta tweak it imo if he expects to get it off the dribble he's not automatically way bigger and way quicker than the guards he's going up against like in high school and college
it just needs to be like .3 quicker

Man he's missing wide open looks Bruh! I hope Dude does well, but this shit isn't just about him shooting over people. Maybe, the kid is just a below average shooter whose peak is average?
 
You are a real Whiny lil bitch... Do you man, but really, don't quote my post no more! I can't deal with pussy ass hyper sensitive whiners! Enjoy all those bricks! :cheers:

Ironic, you're typing up a 120 words a minute

because I mentioned Fultz :lol:

You act just like a ugly female.

You're trying to shit on Lonzo, but you have Fultz on your team :lol:
