2017-18 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD PART 1 ALL OF AMERICAS FAVORITE TEAMS ARE BACK

i know theyre only 3.5 games back and all but there are 5 teams theyll need to pass in the process of getting the 8th seed. it just seems to me that the hoops god are sending them a message right now.

to be remotely worth watching, a team must be fun or else win many games.
the clippers are not fun and they are not winning many games.
therefore the clippers aren't remotely worth watching.
q.e.d.

they were fun in the first couple games but they're built on a v. tenuous foundation and it doesn't look like it's going to work.

trade doc rivers!

heh his value may have declined

Hella mad no Giannis tonight ...

Clippers guard Patrick Beverley will miss the rest of the season, league sources tell ESPN. His surgery required a repair of a microfracture and meniscus injury to his right knee.

yeah. and as far as the older guys go lavine is better than randle.

hes been good as heck, still kinda a weird player tho, a tweener in the age of no-tweeners

the clippers should be making a move for george hill at this very moment.

ya good call

if i were some other team id be trying to steal randle for a middling draft pick seeing as the lakers seem to not like him and theyre prob trying to clear salary for free agents

i am angry about missing a season of pat bev. he is fun.

randle is great when he's in the mood, motivation may be an issue, def could be a change of scenery guy.

I don't really understand why they seem to prefer Nance over him.

celtics cannot get the ball into the basketball ring tonight

blazers missed their first 13 shots tonight

checked at half to see cavs losing to fuckin brooklyn again, nice to see that changed by the end

hmmmmm

KD is fully psyched out. Westbrook wins this year

spurs getting housed in NOLA tonight. their offense is traaaaaaaaaash on the road without kawhi.

Just walked by Larry Sanders at this suns game

"Think of this...as my last assist"

note: cliff paul on the way back to his home planet

died

dammit

the boston celtics have won 0 games in a row

multiple kings have passed out from underneath their own basket. do they know it's not halfcourt and they don't need to clear?

Booooooooookkkkkker

fuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkkkker

Another classic at talking stick resorts arena

seriously tho don't you always foul in that situation

Seems like Wilson Chandler is washed

talking stick was rockin tonight. loudest its been since the nash era. some dude sitting right behind the bucks bench dressed in a robe and had curlers in. was v good.

dragan bender is VERY dumb with the ball. he may just be a pick n pop guy for his career idk

wow .5

i feel really invested in the pelicans this year even tho i thought from the beginning it wasn’t going to work

the celtics are bad now

coach nick roasts the bucks D at 5:30 here

Damning stuff on Bledsoe. He was always a good on ball defender/pest but team scheme D is more important.

the scheme is not good too tho

yeah, it seems like it's hard for everyone to get to the right spot after the initial double team.

Fire Kidd

derrick rose, not quite AWOL: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/21540075/derrick-rose-away-cleveland-cavaliers-evaluating-future-nba

rip lil mvp

Pretty crazy that Rose is the first league MVP to crash and burn after so many years

nah. he'll come back and announce it was all just a mental blip and he's ready for anything. drama. cavs. you know the drill.

he won't play any better, tho

I can't remember who on ILH said it but it rings so true for me wrt Lonzo, the quote was something like "Lonzo is like Ricky Rubio, seven years from now we'll still be debating whether or not he is great or bad at basketball"

kyrie doin some weird kyrie type stuff tonight

melo with 20 pts on 9-24, no free throw attempts. that's a vintage antoine walker line.
