2016-2017 NBA Season Thread [ARCHIVED] Basketball • Page 197

Raptors scored 27 points over the course of two quarters (2&3).

 

Nic Batum is disgustingly weak with the ball.

RIP Hornets. :(

 

Jesus Christ the Hornets are hot trash.

 

Jesus that play where Marcus went to the floor and never once took his right hand off the ball while basically wrestling the dude. I have never seen anyone like him on defense. God he's fun to watch.

 

I literally came here just to gush about that play with you. I'm sick of him making me look like a jack ass haha.

 

EIGHT STEALS! EIGHT!

Not to mention a handful of "steals" for other players that were Marcus poking the ball loose to them or Marcus shutting someone down so bad that they drive in frustration right into getting their pockets picked.

Sixers fans on twitter are maaaaaaaaaaaaaad about that play on the floor, but watch the replay. His hand never leaves the ball.

 

18 games over .500 feels pretty good right now.

 

11 of their last 12. And without their (more or less) third best player for that whole run.

 

RIP JOKIC

 

What is a Ron Baker?

 

lol I can't believe the west is starting Curry over Westbrook

 

In a two year span the Magic have turned Tobias Harris, Victor Oladipo, Mo Harkless, and the 2016 #11 pick into Terrance Ross and a late 20s first rounder.

It's hard to be that bad.

 

And they have the 9th highest cap total in the league lol

 

The list of players who have scored 20+ points in 40 straight games. Just for some context on what IT has accomplished this season.

 

Dunk of the year contender for sure.

 

I don't know that anything beats Nance over Lopez

 

I was on the phone with a friend when this happened and started screaming, they immediately thought something happened to me.

 

There's very little I hate more than Boston sports radio.

"Isaiah Thomas is not a franchise player. He's not a max contract"

Second best scorer in the game. Best 4th quarter scorer in the game.

 

They either bend over and kiss someone's feet or they do that, never in between haha

 

IT is a max player, if Boston doesn't keep him they're out of their mind

 

What would Boston give up in a trade for Butler?

 

Brooklyn, two more and players

Rozier, crowder, young, Amir Johnsons expiring

Something like that is the starting point

 

Two favorite teams face off tonight. Bulls vs Celtics.

 

Send Crowder, Jerebko, Johnson, Young and the Brooklyn pick and I will dance. No way that gets him though.

 

Nah gonna take at least 3 1sts maybe more, you're definitely gonna lose one of rozier/brown/smart. Either way they should do it, butler is good af
