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

so prob two years $16m roughly the midlevel exception

Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
Sources: Clippers’ Lou Williams signed a three-year, $24 million extension, with $1.5M partial guarantee in year three. With this season included: four years, $31M.

not bad really

yeah seems like theres gonna be a ton of competition for those midlevel slots this year but all in all its reasonable

i mean i dont know if the clippers have a plan but thats another discussion

anyone else hear the bit during "Players Only" broadcast of GS/OKC last night when they were discussing if there really are more good shooters today or if guys just have more freedom to shoot now? And none of them would say there are more good shooters today? This type of shit makes you doubt "old timers" opinions on anything wrt modern NBA. Guys grew up shooting 3s! It's plainly obv by the eye test plus stats back it up. My personal bball playing experience leaves me with no doubt about this current generation of ballers too.

yeah that whole braodcast last night i was thinking the only thing that could make reggie worse is not pairing him w harlan and sure enough...

players crumpled by the winds and lost in time, no longer sure which team they've been traded to, weeping under a flag formed by a torn phoenix suns jersey

i just wanted to remind everyone, on the eve of the trade deadline, of this motherfucking GOAT post by clay immediately after The Great Point Guard Swap of 2015.

haha

this is something i've really been struggling with--if he hates the cavs and if the lakers can't get their shit together what's plan c?

if he took less money the spurs and rockets would be huge possibilities imo

ok the lou deal is good

i recant my statement. the clips have mostly been doing smart stuff since pushing doc out of the front office save the gallo contract

gallo looking good since coming back from dat ass tear.

my prediction on lebron is that he's on the rockets next year.

i think so too

he should go to the bucks or wizards

he shd go to the magic gain 30lbs and just trot around shooting threes and starring down aaron gordon

one day people will stop believing in the wizards. one day...

I am totally rooting for the rockets for obvious reasons

i bet he and cp take the same deals, somewhere in the 2 year 35-40 mill range. theyd have to find a way to dump andersons contract on someone then they would have about 20 mil to sign capella as well.

2 chainz totally has an nba body.

before this season i was a firm believer that lebron would not leave cleveland for a second time, i don't really feel that way anymore, if this disaster of a season continues i think it is v likely that he will leave

rockets would be dope, if there is going to be one superteam w/ the dubs there may as well be another to compete w/ them

neither LA team makes sense at all

if the rockets get bron the nba needs to immediately cease conference based playoff seeding

which THEY SHD DO ANYWAY

pels pacers delayed by a leaking roof. looks like it will be canned

Wild one in cle

Woooooooooow bron

that was def a wild one

Yea I caught the end

long second lol

what a great pass that was to get bron that look

yeah perfect, the thing i dont understand tho is the cavs had including the inbounder three of their five guys in the backcourt and minny was back there guarding them with one second left

BANGARANG 💥

i was just making teams that would allow him to stay in the east and aren’t boston basically

just naming*

bron-wall-beal doesnt strike me as a warriors-beater

bronnis in mil would be intriguing though

there is nowhere for bron that makes sense he needs to let himself go in magical orlando

btw this is fn insane http://www.eurohoops.net/en/nba-news/611880/enes-kanter-charged-for-insulting-hedo-turkoglu/

just some geopolitical nba beef

i’d put beal-bron as the most enticing pairing for lebron in the east

beal-wall i mean

if ever having insulted Hedo Turkoglu is a crime, well then lock me up

think i like the bucks, theres literally no way for a defense to deal with bron and giannis at once, plus all that youth and athleticism wld allow bron his proper coasting

imagine if giannis got to spend a couple years learning shit from lebron like every damn day, he'd become a god

bron wld make a great dad

thats why he should go to philly and be the fun dad of those tall boys
