2018-2019 NBA Season Thread [Archived] Basketball • Page 315

The Kings are fun even when they lose.

 

Yep. And Philly shot a higher percentage from the field. But when you give up 40 shots and turn the ball over 28 times, you don't deserve to win against anyone in the NBA.

As constructed, this roster isn't going to beat the best teams (Raptors, Bucks, Celtics, Pacers) in the East. The Fultz experiment isn't going well, and TJ is undeservedly a casualty of it on the bench. He's a better defender, shooter, and steady PG, though with significantly less upside than Markelle.

I'd like Butler for Fultz/Saric/Bayless/1st, not that it'll happen.

Starters:
Simmons/JJ/Butler/Chandler/Embiid

Bench:
TJ/Shamet/RoCo/Muscala/Amir plus Smith somewhere when he returns. I like RoCo in the sixth man role, guarding both guards and forwards off the bench.

BB isn't a great coach, but there are bigger problems than him. Though, as I said yesterday, what are they doing at halftime? Three straight terrible third quarters.

 

Like 2018?

 

Fucking embarrassing effort right now from LeBron and crew. Kawhi isn’t even playing and your losing by 20+ in the first quarter

 

I was hoping this would be a competitive game, yeesh.

 

Fucking 144 point by the Bucks. Jesus Christ! Is that a franchise record?

 

Little sister is at the Blazer game and I’m jealous. I wanna see if Towns is good in person.

 

nah, the record is 166
in a game we lost

 

That was my thought too!

 

I know this thread is pretty hard on Kyle Lowry, but he is killing it so far this year.

 

Bucks City Editions look like fruit rollups

 

Digging the black Miami Vice uniforms. They seriously need to just make those the team colors.

 

Buck uniforms are awesome

 

yep definitely copping one

interesting middleton is modeling them

 

iirc middleton modeled last years as well

 

Leads the league with 11.6 assists per game in 10. Westbrook is second with 8.8 but he's only played 6 games. He is also shooting 40.6% from 3.

 

yaaaaaay

 

Total power move. I bet he asked for like, a 300% pay increase.

Get that bag, Jeff!

 

y’all aren’t ready!!!!!!!

for the 25th ranked defense instead of 30th

 

IMO, it's JJ.

Simmons/JJ on court it's +2.6
off court it's -11.0

Having a shooter out there with him changes everything.

 

Yeah that’s what I was reading earlier from someone.

 

This is probably the furthest ahead a team has ever negotiated a buyout with a coach.
