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

seems reasonable

imagining the thunder rolling out a Seattle jersey right now and I am furious

lakers being named the lakers is absurd

lakers shd have their name seized from them and awarded to the timberwolves and they shd be renamed the entertainers

clippers is also inappropriate, they should be entertainers jr.

i may have a soft spot for absurd team legacy names b/c utah jazz is the best

lakers should be required to play all their games with their choice of one comically large basketball or three tiny ones

jazz is bad they shd be renamed the mormons

utah jazz was good but is less good now that there's a NO team again

clippers are originally from san diego where the name made sense via the navy connection, they r renamed the entertainers jr

worst switch ever was 'Bullets' to the 'Wizards'

yeah that was a lateral move at best

wizards is the most generic name u cld come up with its like the name of a team from a movie

memphis grizzlies is bad too though i have no idea what memphis is known for

I think we all know there are no wizards in Washington, only clowns so that is what they are now, the Capitol Hill Clowns xps

they shd move back to baltimore switch back to the wizards and hire gil arenas to be assistant coach

i also secretly hate all collective noun team names e.g. heat, magic

nuggets is prob my favorite name?

memphis grizzlies is bad too though i have no idea what memphis is known for

Memphis Sizzurp

Memphis Brawlers? Memphis Horns? Memphis Blues? Memphis Collards?

all the olde timey names are hilarious the knickerbockers wtf

memphis bbq seems obv to me

The LA teams should be the Movers and Shakers

nuggets, pistons, timberwolves, hornets, cavaliers are all top tier names

celtics is the best cause its the only ethnically derived name

celtics is bad if you ignore the part of your brain thats used to it

jazz is bad they shd be renamed the mormons

Knickerbockers is a dope as fuck name

def top 3

hive would be good if only to deflect non-mormon noobs

chicago lakers

Great win for the suns!

they look like a normal team now. tJ warren never really played well under watson. he should be their 2nd best player behind booker.

jakob poeltl carving up the dubs

Wow Ingram! Nice comeback From the Yung lakers to force OT

painful

More like John Fence

john door

lavar vindicated

lonzo air ball

its sad we only got bad suns for a few games feel like that wouldve been a good plotline to stretch out for like a quarter of the season

i guess theres a lil residual drama with bledsoe, mcdonough might be in a position to convince him to stay if he hadnt started beef with him in the media lol

hmm maybe the jazz aren't actually good. they dominated okc though

the Ingles/rubio tandem is fun to watch but they kinda suck when those 2 aren't on the floor

losing yr top scorer then going out and signing rubio isnt too much of a plan

lotta nba nerds were convinced the jazz wouldn't lose a step but it sounded like wishful thinking most of the time.

i don't think they've lost much of a step, they can still win 50 with this roster but 45 probably more likely

I do think they'll make the offs now which I didn't think at the time of predictions thread

theyre gonna have plenty of nights where they just can't score

their opponents are too though, it should balance out
