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

For all the talk of Lonzo, I'm more worried about Ingram

Ingram needs to be able to shoot to be effective

Lonzo shouldn't be averaging more blocks and rebounds than someone who's 6'10

I feel you, Ingram looks like nothing but a scorer. He needs to make an imprint on the game in other ways without the ball.

Lonzo got a triple double tonight. What Fultz Got?

He’s injured, there’s nothing to talk about.

It would be one thing if he was playing better defense and doing the small things. He often has the highest plus minus on the team.

He plays small and not like he's 6'10 and 7 foot plus arms.
 




The Cavs take NYC subway, and LeBron learns not to film people on the train
November 13, 2017

to Madison Square Garden this morning — LeBron and the Cavs chose to get their Jam on instead and travel like locals:





… much to the chagrin of at least one local:




Speaking as a native New Yorker, it is about as straight-out-of-central-casting as it gets that a New Yorker would either be A) so determinedly focused on shutting out all external reality during his commute that he doesn’t notice that the person pointing a camera at him is actually one of the most famous people in the world, or B) aware that the person filming him is LeBron James, but does not care even one teeny-tiny little bit …

… and insists that this very large gentleman still Get All The Way Out Of His Face With That Camera, My Guy — even with a security detail riding shotgun.

Like, he is VERY not thrilled to be on camera. (Screen shot via Uninterrupted)





On that score, I find in favor of the defendant. I know you’re just a kid from Akron, Bron-Bron, but filming random people on the subway is a no-no. Even if you’re not going for creepshots, dude’s just trying to get through midtown on a dreary Monday morning, and you’re out here turning him into content. Whatever the man’s reasons, he clearly wasn’t looking to appear on camera, so why you making it hot, LeBron?

second story about him, which, given the tenor of 2017, will of course be far, far darker." style="max-width: 100%;">We now await with bated breath the New York news media’s race to find “Can You Not?” Guy, for the publication of the first story about him (how he thinks Porzingis is better, or whatever) and for the publication of the second story about him, which, given the tenor of 2017, will of course be far, far darker.









While we wait for the other shoe to drop there, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority wanted to make it clear that, while they appreciate the Cavs’ patronage, they prefer unicorns to kings.






UPDATE: Annoyed Train Passenger has spoken!  Real estate agent and comedian James Michael Angelo tells FTW that he thought his tall trainmates were just part of a college basketball team.

“I noticed a bunch of tall guys getting in the train, but I was listening to U2 and I didn’t want to be filmed … To be honest with you, they got on and they completely squished me and he was really unaware of his space.

“It was first thing in the morning. I hadn’t finished my latte and I didn’t feel like being filmed. Plus, it’s not good lighting in the subway.”
 
I don't get Lebron. I knew the jab at Frank was an attempt to go at Phil, but Phil is no longer with the team, and you're dissing another man for no reason? NOW you decide not to be passive aggressive?

It will be interesting if they win.
 
Who can the Cavs trade to improve this shit? Kevin Love? How much value does he have?

Does Lebron want to stick around and hope they get a top five pick and that becomes a Ayton, Bagley or Bridges?
 
Korver is a fucking weapon. Nineteen in the fourth.

Porzingis gotta get stronger and stop flopping.

they actually have a lot of options with that pick. they can package the pick and kevin love, and they can get someone like cousins. or the pick for cousins straight up i don't even know if that helps them. they have to wait to IT comes back and see how he plays. the season is long as hell. there is still time, they just need to play defense and their rebounding is ass seems like they are on cruise control now.

Fuck 19 points and the coach could not make any adjustments.. you gotta make that motherfucker run and work for his shots. he will destroy you if he just catches and shoots
