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

feels like he rushed his shot like he's trying to be quick like curry. his midrange shot looks much more measured and calm (still quick tho)

yeah def he just flings em up there

you folks need to have more appreciation for the hoisting life

i mean we all love to hoist here but some level of propriety must be observed

marcus smart's inability to make a layup is still really frustrating

marcus smarts inability to make anything...

celtics on a roll

Celtics announce Kyrie Irving is out for the remainder of the game and monitored for possible concussion.

what happenes if everyone on your team gets concussed

they institute "the protocol game"

isn't "he's been the difference in this game" actually a diss if theyre on the team that's behind

faint praise, yes, but if it's meant as a backhanded compliment, it's a pretty well buried one

Tried watching Bulls/Pacers cause feelin guilty for not watching any Bulls this year. Made it thru a quarter, phew that was exhausting. Switching over to Spurs/Bucks.

wow that oop from bled to giannis

P incredible. Bucks in the open court are just deadly.

the celtics won whoa

ugly game

gianns stylin on that dunk

great basketball going on here

DEER NOISES!!!!!

great basketball is not allowed until after the holidays, im logging off immediately

Manu NEVER RETIRE.

uhh Manu really got a gift there

wow manu clean stuffs giannis and gets called for a foul smh

great game btw throwback manu stuff going on

Def. JVG otm good low scoring game

Henson and Giannis are blocking everything

PG13 thunder breakout game

the celtics apparently cannot lose even when theyre down 16 and missing all their dudes

celtics will win 74 games

bledsoe and snell started last night but brogdon had more minutes than either of them

somehow delly still got 20 too, guess they dont really have a backup 3 so they end up running out a bunch of 3 guard lineups

Kidd trusts him and he was seeing who he played better w. That bled brog Middleton Giannis Henson lineup looked really good

Yah they had all three guard in at one point don’t think that worked well tho

yeah that xp lineup makes sense to me, tho maker is prob their future center

very switchable as the kids like to say

Henson is a little more sound defensively at this point. Henson had 6assists last night too!

celtics are so far out in front in defensive efficiency its nuts, theres as many points (4) between them and the 2 team (okc) as there is between okc and the 13th team (charlotte), but when u watch them play it doesnt seem like theyre shutting their opponents down its not like theyre swarming the perimeter or blocking every shot at the rim, i guess it comes down to almost all their players are + defenders who just play really solid and rebound well, also their sched has been pretty weak

smart and rozier are defensive allstars who cause some srs havoc when played together, they also both shoot 35%

smart is shooting <30%

that too lol

smart is easily the most confident shooter who doesnt shoot well enough to be in the nba that ive ever seen

he should not be 3rd on the team in usage but here we are

yeah that is utterly insane

get well soon gordon!

+al and kyrie

i declare another ciderpress bowl tonight for orlando vs denver

back on the magic train i see

i just want to figure out whats going on

my theory they mostly just got hot but adding simmons-ross-augustin-isaac + moving gordon to pf has prob made them good enough to get a low east playoff seed

also they have a good coach who just had a hard time dealing with last years nonsensical roster construction
