2014-15 NBA regular season thread: 82 games of injuries and inevitabilities

i mean he did shoot super poorly last year but some of that has to do w the celtics having no good offensive players at all, also if he lost some weight he could get a lil more lift

still think kd is going to dc

kd is 100% going to dc

john wall is the best in the league at creating open 3pt attempts for his teammates btw

he shd go to dc too imo f okc and their penny pinching terrible coach hiring cheating seattle out of a team ways

he should make the wiz change their name back to the bullets a requirement of him signing tho

Either that or make them change the name to the Washington Durantulas

the example of lbj going back to Cleveland surely has kd thinking about going to dc

dc vs cleveland 2016 is going to be what we have lived for

if okc wins a title i cld see that changing his mind but hes got to be out of there if they keep under performing, squandering his prime

Either that or make them change the name to the Washington Durantulas

tarantulas wld be a sick ass name irl imo

or spiders

Going back to DC doesn't have the same resonance, it's not some hardscrabble ex-industrial town where there's gonna be a lone local baller hero

it is kinda the worst place on earth tho

washington tarantulas has a nice rhythm

as does dc spiders

their mascot could just be millions of live spiders they release into the arena during player intros

More pro sports teams should go with arthropod mascots!

mascots nicknames

surprised there isn't a kraken team yet, prob inevitable

black uniforms w red details

f the sonics, seattle squids man

das a good one too!

Das Boots

Seattle Cephalopods IMO (squids are mostly lame unless you're talking about Giant/Colossal MFs).

nets need to get @shayneHBA to redesign their uniforms, theyre so close already

^important concept imo, the nets had the right idea but no attention to detail, need to get streetwear pro to round them into form

obv giant squids man this is a mascot after all

Lolol good call on the HBA/Nets connection

The Seattle PYREX

Sorry Clay, I'm being a science nerd!

re: all the KD to DC talk, if they win a title this season and there's a chance of keeping that gang together in OKC (jackson, ibaka, westbrook, KD), shite coach or not he's staying in OKC at least for a little while, maybe a 2 or 3 yr deal on par with LBJ's latest.

if they don't, he's going SOMEWHERE. my biggest fear is him becoming a fucking laker i think i might claw my eyes out

KD is totally going back to DC, it's written in stone

otm

@kpelton From today's Insider Daily, Kobe Bryant led the NBA in preseason usage at 38.2% of Lakers plays

gonna be such a beautiful year

its so perfect

how are the lakers on TV on opening night

i mean i know how but really

between golden state, the clippers, the suns and the blazers the nba's far west has had a total renaissance and yet we still haven't been able to unshackle national television from the lakers

lakers are so by far the most popular nba team its hopeless

it effectively showcases the new model Loser Kobe who takes 50% of all laker shots and makes 32% of them, while the rest of the team mills around waving their arms for a pass

not to mention northwest division champion oklahoma city sorry this will never not bug me xp

i mean look at this fucking disgusting bullshit

also the rest of the entire globe is a deep purple too
