i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

completely forgot dwight was on the hawks

i'm gonna need some kind of roundup before the seasons starts of all the dudes who switched teams

I kinda like the pacers roster

Added Thad Young, Teague and Big Al plus Myles a year older. Swim Cap still in his prime

i was playing some "who he play for" with a buddy the other day and we kept stumping each other with some fairly big name players it's bizarre

they just need someone starting at the 2 who isnt named monta ellis. i would like to see gr3 given a chance at it actually - despite being bad in a lot of ways he can shoot threes and defend

here are some dudes who switched teams

bonus roy hibbert sighting

i just have this premonition now that lin is going to drop 30 on the celtics in the season opener

uhh horford is gonna be so good for the celtics this is the most perfect fit ever

yeah its unreal

don't wanna jump to any conclusions, but

also i'm kind of confused about the case, i thought it was a civil case?

the current case is civil and hes under criminal investigation too

Weirdest who he play for this year might be Jarrett jack on the hawks

He's like the least hawksy player ever and also didn't he shred his Achilles last year?

Yeah I uhh I need to calm down about the c's this year but I think they're going to be incredible even if they still need a #1 scorer who isn't under six feet; horford in the middle with that defense is gonna be disgusting

they ill be top 4 seed.

Cle
Tor
Ind
Bos
Atl
NY
Det
Chi

I think Charlotte barely misses, they lost some depth and marvin williams / nic batum were on contract years last year so i think they regress

don't understand why ppl are so high on the pacers

they upgraded some spots and cleared more playing time for Turner. PG another year healthier and he's only 26

they also downgraded their coach idk how big a factor that is

lol forgot about that!

i think boston will be the 2 seed and rather easily

ya feel like teague is exactly the type of player theyve needed forever particularly

the also really need a #1 scorer but maybe turner can be that, prob still too young tho

yeah but he'll help and teague is a better scorer than hill was.

forgot parsons is now on the grizz. i keep waiting for them to blow it up. i guess they did fight really hard in the first round last year while missing a bunch of dudes.

grizz def should have blown it up after last year. they can still be like the 5 seed but what does it even matter

hard to blow it up when u have an injured player on the first year of a max deal

i don't think they should have blown it up but giving chandler parson's knees a max deal could end up being very bad

aldo giving conley the biggest contract in nba history

some dubious contract on that team for sure

I can't wait for the first Hawks/Celtics game. The over/under should be like 125. Both teams should be ridic on D

they also downgraded their coach idk how big a factor that is

a ghost: ~ ~ woe be to he that heeds not the soothsayer of loch macmillan ~ ~

lol

if by some miracle the grizz are healthy it's a great starting 5 imo

i hope everyone checked out this wonderful piece on bill kennedy: http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/17764735/nba-referee-bill-kennedy-long-coming-story

wheels gotta fall off zbo sometime soon

he's 35 and i know my wheels fell off in the last year

he'll come off the bench right

Reading through that Kennedy story and that place where the karaoke bar is right down the street from me! lol i think i know which subdivision he's in. i gotta hunt him down and shake his hand. might catch him at the fish fry. good story.

the bledsoe/knight/booker/warren/len lineup has been fun to watch

agree w/ most of the teams in that list altho in slightly diff order: CLE/BOS/TOR/IND/ATL/DET/CHA/CHI

i think clifford's coaching intellect will make enough lemonade out of certain lemons (like hibbert) to keep them right at the threshold

NYK would make the offs, all things being equal, over chicago - but i'd bet on butler/rondo/wade staying healthier than rose/noah

disappointed in all these non-believers of the orlando magic theory

think they'll be more competitive but they have some major issues w that roster. really deep at the 4/5 with four guys that could start. they are talking about moving gordon to the 3 but that's not ideal.

elfrid, fournier, gordon, ibaka, vooch is an interesting starting 5 but that bench looks thin on paper
