2017-2018 NBA Season Thread [Archived] Basketball • Page 435

Man, fuck Kyle O'Quinn. He just recklessly barreled into Antonio Blackney and almost really hurt him.

Kid is working hard to stay in the NBA, making $75,000, and you almost broke his wrist because you were mad that the refs gave you a technical? Fuck off.

EDIT: This is what Bulls fans have to discuss this year. :/

 

Nah let’s just trade them for players that better suit Giannis’ game

The entire makeup of the team is a mess

 

but yes 30 year old 25m a year gonna walk in 6 months primadonna deandre jordan was the answer so we could get an extra four rebounds a game and shoot 15% worse than we already are

 

We’d be a top 4 team in the East with him no doubt

 

Like man what is Tony Snell’s purpose in the NBA

 

With Deandre Jordan this year the Bucks could have legitimately won the East

 

is he a head coach too, i was unaware of this

my dude. this is lunacy lol. come onnn

 

OH MY GOD

 

you said this about middleton last week

 

Better players make up for shit coaching (look at the 2016 Cavs for example)

Having Jordan allows Giannis even more freedom to create - it makes Henson a better option against second units it sends Maker to the g-league to develop

Teams with fucking average centers and big men turn into all stars against us

 

I’m still open to the team moving him this offseason

Only untouchables are Giannis and maybe Brogdon

 

lebron had a truly incredible game. if only we had deandre jordan to pick him up at the perimeter so he wouldn’t have nailed as many threes and get left behind in his dust as lebron tomahawks the ball through the net breaking the backboard. if only.

 

His kids will be up there though, so he'll still be proud getting player of the week just 2-3 times.

 

the 2016 team with 3 top 15 players in the league? that one? DJ isn’t a top 5 center. he offers no floor spacing at all, a problem that has plagued the clippers largely bc of his own fault. put down the sauce, man

 

This doesn’t make a difference?

Lebron has huge games all the time and the Cavs still lose to teams with less talent than us

 

Whatever it doesn’t matter - Giannis is gone in four years anyways

 

i agree having a bad coach doesn’t immediately ruin your team’s chances. that’s fine. having a bad coach or no coach at all pretty immediately ruins your team’s chances when the majority of your key players are below 25 though. gimme a break.

 

i look forward to you being a wolves fan long before that ever happens

 

I don’t trust this ownership group and GM to make the right moves

 

Nah you can keep drew on that side of the Mississippi!

 

You guys will be fine lol. I think you gotta let Parker go and probably Bledsoe.

You guys could keep Bledsoe and try to get just an AVERAGE NBA center and you’d be in a better place.

 

let Bledsoe go. i'm tired of the lazy dribble down court followed by a wasted 3 attempt every time.

 

i don’t trust the experience of an executive who i have never seen anything from because he’s in his first year on the job and inherited a horrible cap situation

this. makes. sense.

 

we 100% have to let jabari go, as much as it pains me to say. he’s going to get 20m this summer. we literally don’t have the space for him.

bledsoe has another season left so idk why letting him walk is even being discussed

 

DeAndre Jordan is a primmadona? Dude has been on the trading block for two years after ruining his reputation to resign with the team to maintain a solid core. The team then drove their best player out of town and then traded away their 2nd best player/DJ’s best friend on the team for assets, and yet he’s been silent and has continued to play hard for a decent team that has no business being decent.
