billionaire techbros club - 2016-17 NBA regular-ass season thread (the first of a series)

Worth noting that Harry B has looked good so far

rockets look like they're gonna out-3P the warriors this year

this is a neat little story about the celtics strength coach making up playground games to keep warmups interesting http://www.espn.com/blog/boston/celtics/post/_/id/4724268/how-do-celtics-prepare-for-practice-playground-games-bring-fun-focus

hah i love bryan doo long time fan

Curry looks ok he's also just trying to figure out how to play w KD. Had a burst tonight of 8 points in 50 seconds. Draymon doesn't seem like himself yet. There's gonna be lots of toying with rotations for like 30 games.

[whispering] its unlikely steph or dray will ever have as good seasons as they had last year

but on the other hand they have the last two mvps so they shd be fine

no secret xp

true

my favorite team has 3 mvps

many do not know this

i love factoids

the pelicans roster is really galling

srsly this is outrageous and shd be illegal

no idea who tim frazier was b4 this season but he was balling out and talking trash to curry/draymon/whoever else would hear it. he won me over

Warriors won't suck by the All Star game. That's really all we need to know atm.

It's Larry Sanders. Most don't know this.

sup matt. the nuggets are undefeated!

Nuggets look like a fantastic aside from Mudiay who needs to be on a different roster most likely

you know who also looks great?

THABO

nuggets were playing jokic and nurkic together and it ruled

i have both on my fant team

dubs took a look at larry sanders and passed

russ taking it a lil over the top

they also signed javale and didn't put him in the rotation. Clearly incompetent talent evaluation.

I actually like that rookie center they have but he's not healthy right

yah got his titty repaired, due back by end of year. i think the larry thing is probably deeper than his skill set. who knows if he is really ready to commit to coming back.

he seems to be a terrible person

nuggs in the rainbow alts tonight <3

havent watched most of the spurs game, but juice just dunked on ant davis, so its all good

dame just slicing up denver's d in a way that seems almost unfair

uh this blazers v nuggets game has been ridiculous. nuggets lost a 10 point lead in about 90 seconds and now it's going to OT. lots of extremely boneheaded defense by denver.

+ inbounded to jokic up 2 w/ 12 seconds left and jokic bumbled the ball out of bounds, like you kind of don't see nba teams lose leads like this.

I'm starting to wonder if Teague is worse than I thought, George hill is better than I thought or both

Wiggins' First 2016-2017 Assist Watch enters week 2

you know who also looks great?

THABO

Yesssss

crazy piece abt espn including a bunch abt the insane math of the nba tv rights deal http://www.outkickthecoverage.com/espn-loses-621-000-subscribers-worst-month-in-company-history-102916

lol thought the comments might have some interesting points but WOWWWW was i wrong

RIP giant ass contracts 1999-2021

yea these contracts next year may be the biggest we'll ever see in our lifetimes

dubs really need the 3s to drop, 1/16 for non-curry, non-durant shooters right now.

phoenix looks much less bad than i thought they might

draymond, one dime from a rebound/assist (rondo special?) double double w 5 pts on horrible shooting, is having a weird game

warriors look pretty bad

also, russ is now 2 triple doubles on three games for the season (and one assist away from the remaining, in game 1)

Solid stat line from Pau tonight: 20-11-3-2, 50% FGP

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/17647881/pistons-andre-drummond-using-virtual-reality-help-free-throws

He had a good game offensively. Lma got the night off since it was a back to back.
