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

okc gonna miss the playoffs kinda nuts

they'll prob get in as a 7-8 seed and mess up the bracket

idk man the west is tough can they win any games w/o their dudes

they'll def need to go on a tear once durant and westbrook come back

how long is RWB gonna be out for?

wld also think even once they come back itll take a min to get up to speed

thunder very well could miss the playoffs but i bet durant can push them in when he gets back

also saying the thunder are gonna miss the playoffs assumes no debilitating injuries for any other west contenders

this is two debilitating injuries

@ZachLowe_NBA: Thunder are 0-2, and if Westbrook is really out 4-6 weeks, facing maybe 20 games w/o Durant and Russ. In the West, that is real danger.

also the thunder chose ibaka over harden

if they had harden right now they're still making the playoffs right?

yep

They didn't have to choose!!

that too

proud of y'all for making it a few hours after the RWB news to mention the james harden trade

aka the great white whale of "things many NBA writers and junkies are still salty about"

it's true tho

T/S: Gasol to LA trade or letting Harden go

jazz putting up 4/42 for alec burks

...sure?

and also pointsman, octopi don't bark (slothroprhymes)

most western contenders have way more depth than the Thunder.

Kings made late push to try to acquire Klay Thompson for anyone not named Cousins or Gay, a source said. Might have helped push GS agreement

i'm sorry...... WHAT?

haha imagine the press conference "we chose not to trade klay thompson for kevin love but we're ECSTATIC to have ben mclemore, derrick williams and ramon sessions!"

the Kings owner is an actual crazy person and I guess you gotta oseth to those people cuz you might get one over on em

*listen to them

did you guys talk about how Ranadive wants the Kings to play 4 on 5 defense with a designated cherry picker

I posted the quote abt it iirc, but I think that was a busy day

i saw it but basically could not even process a coherent response .

chris copeland is basically the pacer's offense rn

pretty much the dream scenario for a one dimensional player in a contract year

who's got predix for cavs@bulls? i'm gonna say cavs win by 3

Max as most of us predicted

Ayo someone was asking and there is a radio broadcasts only subscription option in the league pass app called game time plus

Think it's only ten bucks for the season

turns out the Wolves didn't need to save the max slot for Rubio huh

yeah that occurred to me as well, oopsy daisy

ahhh derrick rose heads to the locker room, an autumn tradition like no other

ok time to officially start asking wtf is wrong with Bron

mjax is the worst
