NBA 2019-20 NBA Regular Season Thread II

[Avs_19]

Sloppy game at times with all the turnovers but still a good one.

Pelicans just threw that one away. Having Zion on a minutes restriction and not playing him with the game on the line when you badly need all of these games is ridiculous. They did have Lonzo out there chucking up brick after brick in the 4th quarter so they had that going for them.

• LeBron on L.A. showdown: Right where we left off
• Gobert keys Jazz: 'Life works in mysterious ways'
• Zion's minutes kept in check, sits late in Pels' loss
• Jazz, Pels kneel during anthem as NBA returns
• Morant: NBA's play-in format unfair to Grizzlies
• Sources: NBA players to get $2.5M in disability

 

[Terry Yake]

completely agree with morant about the play-in format being unfair to the grizzlies

they should've made it a little less obvious that they want zion in the playoffs. which i really don't understand, because the pels are looking like they'll be a playoff contender for a while with that core. don't get the rush to have him in there now

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

So, unlike hockey, they are faux finishing the regular season?

 

[Royal Canuck]

Jaren Jackson Jr. is so underrated.

6’11 but moves and shoots like a guard.

Carmelloooooooo

 

[Avs_19]

Grizzlies/Blazers was awesome. The three games I've watched have had some sloppy stretches but overall they've been good.

 

[donghabs98]

The Rockets-Mavs game was sure something.

 

[HisIceness]

53 points for TJ Warren. The same TJ Warren that the Suns traded for cash considerations.

 

[Cassano]

Kawhi punching the air RN, seeing raptors beat the Lakers while he has to pick up Lou Wil from the strip club.

 

[Know Your Enemy]

Raptors are tough AF. Great win

 

[BostonBob]

Ridiculous.

 

[Terry Yake]

Raptors are tough AF. Great win

they are absolutely ridiculous on defense

reminds me of the 04 pistons

 

[Ben Grimm]

• Pacers' Warren drops 53 to blow past career high
• Nurse: Champion Raptors haven't reached ceiling
• Rivers passes Auerbach for 11th on NBA wins list
• Thunder, Jazz pick up where they left off in March
• Heat's Leonard opts to stand for national anthem
• Clippers' Harrell grieving grandmother's death
• Heat's Butler swaps jersey for one with name

 

[Cassano]

they are absolutely ridiculous on defense

reminds me of the 04 pistons

And the 14 Spurs on offense.

With Bulls being the trainwreck they are and out of playoffs and the Warriors falling off this year. I dont honestly see this NBA season/playoff as much entertainment

Warriors style/success made me return back to NBA a bit but I just cant say I am much of a fan of the LA Lebron's and the Clippers who are going to be talked about 24/7 along with Rockets who are not a team that I find entertaining (Who enjoys watching a team throw up 30+ 3's and miss many of them and Harden not play any defense)

Anyone else just not that into the NBA without Warriors?

I'll agree on the Rockets.

 

[Power Man]

Tough loss against Philly

Not sure what Dejounte was thinking by leaving a 45% 3 pt shooter wide open at the end of the game

Oh well, still very happy with the young guys - Keldon Johnson, White and Lonnie
DeRozan has been great as well

Hopefully Forbes and Belli won't play a lot when they come back from injuries

What’s the difference in your opinion of the Warriors style of success and the Rockets? Both jack up threes and play little to no defense. I’d much rather watch the Clippers, Bucks, Jazz, Raptors over the Warriors “style”. I would add Lakers in there if I didn’t want to see them fail as a Clippers fan.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Refs keeping Dallas in this game. 21-4 ft attempt advantage with over 5 to go in the 2nd.

Look at Luka. 2 shots. Mug Fox? All good.

 

[Deen]

What a joke, They can't put Giannis in to win the game? The **** am I watching? New Orleans sits Williamson in crunch time too. Let's just take out our best players when the game is on the line... sound logic. The Diva Association pisses me off. These coaches should be looked at for tampering. Wouldn't shock me one bit is they are all in cahoots betting on these games.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Game going to ot with Dallas having a 40-12 advantage in fts. This has been a god damn joke.
