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

this is how he looked during that stretch last reg season

great rebound by lonzo

lol that shot by ingraham :(

can't tell if i love or hate this "bro" commercial btw

Before this game Lopez had not played more than 23 minutes this season

Lonzo Ball seriously going to finish this game 0-2 from the field?

another classic lopez/nurkic showdown that nba fans have been begging for

Lonzo Ball seriously going to finish this game 0-2 from the field?

respek spurs

#6 lowe complaining abt towns D http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/21269003/zach-lowe-10-things-like-featuring-kristaps-porzingis-nba

fultz did 9/11 http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2742212-this-is-not-normal-markelle-fultz-injury-reasons-behind-it-confound-the-nba

those towns clips, yikes. just awful fundamental basketball. if you don't have the timing to contest (he doesn't) just box out!

lonzo watch:

unsourced stat but apparently the lakers are like 26 points better in orating when he's sitting
he hasn't gotten to the line in 4 games
outside of the game against the demoralized suns he's shooting 27%

ive thought about it and imo towns is having too much fun out there

he's 19 tho

he's 20.

dang he'll be 30 by the end of the month at this rate

rip lonzo

lol cider

A+ joke cider

Stein on Giannis

ciderpress-approved watches tonight: MIL/DET, IND/PHI, TOR/UTA, BOS/OKC

please do not watch the cavs

everyone gonna want to tune into celtics-thunder, its marcus morris's first game as a celtic, only happens once

also his first game after being acquitted of assault charges along with his twin brother so its pretty much doubly momentous

those guys get clowned on so hard on the local talk radio shows here.

i like how theyre rugged dudes but still have that really intense twin relationship

hah yeah

Nance fractured hand out 4-6 weeks.

injuries suck

Maybe having Darren Collison guard Ben Simmons is not a winning strategy idk.

probably not but the pacers are so thin at the wing theres not really another option? idk

It's so disruptive that you have to put Lance in there to shore up the D side; Pacers have enough offense to let Lance be a little anonymous on the offensive end.

its a shame lance has been so trash this season because his bench unit has real potential imo

cory joseph is somehow hitting 58% of his 3pa while shooting 2.4 per game

damn embiid might get tossed??

Not a cool challenge there.

why would you lay a flagrant on joe young, the most inoffensive player in the game lol

Frustrated beyond belief watching Lance so far in reg season. He has *all* the right tools to do what Dipo is doing w/ the first team -- drive hard and either dish or take to the rim -- but he's been settling for long js and it's awful to watch.

BTW Bulls halftime show tomorrow is Steve Max, Professional Simon Sez leader, a man who figured out a way to make a living on Simon Sez. Favorite halftime show so far this season!

yeah ive been thinking about how young lance was decent harden pastiche. hes lost some speed now but could transition to using his size to bully smaller guards

Nice Croat showdown b/t Šarić and Bogdanović.

some croat just checked in for cleveland too, it's croat mania

surprised no one has commented on them playing for croatia together tbh.

less surprised that no one commented on the whole croat v. serb thing when the two bogdanovics faced off earlier this week

Will Fultz make a 3pt before Simmons

how embiid biff two dunks in crunch time lol
