NBA 2019-20 NBA Regular Season Thread II

I'd argue his teammate whines more than Harden. Then off course there's Draymond Green who never fouls anyone and is fouled every time he touches the ball.

No doubt Draymond Green and Russell Westbrook whine, but there is no player in the league that does it more than James Harden in terms of whining for calls.

Raptors are now 1/2 a game up on Boston with the Celtics having a game in hand. Both teams play tonight. Raptors in Phoenix and Boston is home vs. Brooklyn.

which is funny considering he shoots 10x more FTs than any other player

Raptors really hurting with both their bigs out. Ayton could get 25 boards tonight.

Disagree. No one does it more than Green.

The NBA feels like a 1-city 2-team league this season.

It's the Lakers, Clippers, and everyone else is playing for bronze

 

[tony d]

Yeah, the Lakers are looking excellent this year. Lebron wins another title this year and with the Lakers, doing that would only add to his GOAT billing.

The Pelicans basically gifting them AD has made this almost feel inevitable

Wouldn’t call it gifting. Lakers gave up the equivalent of at least 3-4 first round picks.

 

[Terry Yake]

yeah saying the pels "gifted" the lakers AD is a bit much

that trade is a huge win for both teams. the pels have a very bright future with BI+lonzo+zion and the lakers got the 2nd star to pair with lebron and take advantage of the few seasons he's got left of playing at an elite level

 

[HisIceness]

Kings seem to be a roll as of late. 7-3 in their last 10 and they're creeping up on the Grizzlies for the 8 spot. Can they make it?

 

[Jack Straw]

This was sick from Luka...

 

[Stylizer1]

It wouldn't because he is again riding shotgun.

Curry's back tonight for the finals rematch vs. the Raptors. Wonder how he'll play in his return and if there will be any rust.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Do the Lakers have the most former number 1 picks that weren't theirs on the roster?

 

[Voight]

James Dolan is a bad/racist comment away from over taking Donald Sterling as the worst owner in NBA history.

Bans Franchise legend Charles Oakley from MSG and throws him out.... then throws out the teams most well known celebrity fan Spike Lee.... also a guy who shows up every year no matter how awful the team is.... Knicks have had multiple harassment lawsuits before......

Thats not even getting to the steaming pile of crap that the on court team has been since 1999.

There's some rust but he looks pretty darn good.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

The Warriors should just go back to the San Francisco Warriors name. Has a nice ring to it.

 

[tony d]

Raptors clinched a playoff berth last night. Great news in spite of how many injuries they've had this year.

 

[Power Man]

Curry milked a hand injury that realistically would have been healed ages ago, all so he could quit on a season that wasn't going to be easy for him.
He doesn't want to play if it's not easy and he can't do that shimmy in the other team's face. Same reason why Draymond keeps ducking games. Those two are frontrunners on the level of Durbeta

Curry had two hand surgeries and he came back in 6 months.... that’s wild. To act like he would be able to come back any sooner is just moronic.

 

[Avs_19]

I'm one of the non-Warriors fans who doesn't mind Draymond but it's weird how he keeps talking about Chuck as if he's better than him because he has rings. It doesn't work like that. He'll never be better than him as a player and probably not as a broadcaster either. Although, I do think Draymond could be good on TV when that time comes.

 

[Ben Grimm]

Barkley is much funnier and smarter. Clippers signed Noah.

 

[John Price]

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James scoffed at the idea of playing games without fans in attendance.
"Nah, that's impossible," James said after the Lakers' 113-103 win over the Milwaukee Bucks. "I ain't playing. If I ain't got the fans in the crowd, that's what I play for. I play for my teammates, I play for the fans. That's what it's all about. If I show up to an arena, and there ain't no fans there? I ain't playing. So, they could do what they want to do."
