walton was more of the friend. not sure how that woulda worked out long term.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:01 (six years ago) link
idk from what ive read abt walton in both gs and the lakers it seems like hes got the stuff players talk abt him like hes their therapist who theyre also madly in love with

i know everyone clamored for more kd/steph pnr last year but at least during the reg season i recall it not being as effective as ppl assumed, one of the main reasons being that kd is a bad screener.

running a new player combo pnr occasionally as an afterthought then being all hmm that doesnt work as well as one might think is the definition of a self fulfilling prophecy
xp players def love him, idk if he can actually coach
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:04 (six years ago) link
he seems p smart abt the Xs n Os too i think hes good

time will tell.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:14 (six years ago) link
hope the lakers stick him long terms instead of getting worried abt a young team losing, seems unlikely considering how dramatic they are tho
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 11 October 2017 18:16 (six years ago) link
i think he's the real deal

I gave wade about 12 games before he's coming off the bench

meyers leonard is 4-4 from 3 in like 8 minutes of play, man please don't do this to me just be trash
― Clay, Thursday, 12 October 2017 02:57 (six years ago) link
hell, Meyers Leonard is so young, big and strong he could still conceivably bloom into a starter somewhere when he hits 27 or 28. he's such a freaking wild card. I'm glad he didn't get a ruinous contract, though. this season he just needs to be able to defend a bit, make the right pass within the offensive scheme, and not suck at shooting mid-range.

hes incredibly adept at drawing fouls. he can turn a bruising post up into a rip through before the defender knows whats hit them

anybody figure out reb0rn for H D Live yet?

tbh i just go to r/nbastreams, it's a lil unreliable here and there but mostly it works

yeah last year was something like this but not quite as sketchy so i went in. just wondering if anyone else has been successful w this yet. guess i might have to be the guinea pig.
― Spottie, Thursday, 12 October 2017 18:37 (six years ago) link
i just did it, waiting for reborn to process the order will report back, lol that site is def for laundering ecrime money

lol lemme know
― Spottie, Thursday, 12 October 2017 18:40 (six years ago) link
not hating on streaming but imo 200 bucks is a pretty fair price for league pass

blackout games are straight up bullshit though
― marcos, Thursday, 12 October 2017 20:00 (six years ago) link
yeah league pass has so many games blacked out and it doesnt have the playoffs, reborn has nbatv 24/7 now too
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 October 2017 20:07 (six years ago) link
reborn just takes their games from international league pass lol, if u dont live in america there is a good legal package available to u
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 October 2017 20:08 (six years ago) link
yeah the blackouts are bad, also i guess it would be more of an issue if i lived in the market of my primary team
― k3vin k., Thursday, 12 October 2017 20:11 (six years ago) link
also i am super stoked for this season because roku finally added a TNT app so i can finally watch those games on the roku
stoked 2 roke
― lag∞n, Thursday, 12 October 2017 20:13 (six years ago) link
the blackout on the nbatv games is so fucking annoying

yeah it's inexcusable how as someone who has league pass i can't watch NBA TV games. there's not even a way to stream if you have a subscription

maybe will be more interesting to ppl here than on the sports writing thread but this is kind of a big deal. iirc his tinder and dnp-rest stories were major click leaders among espn.com's nba coverage.
