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

its cool to see his level of buy in and enthusiasm for the celtics scheme too, good citizen kyrie seems happy

also he has an genuine love for the city of boston based on circumstantial childhood imprinting

he seems very happy not to be pressed under bron's thumb any more

i kinda think he was more unhappy with the general bush league dysfunction in cleveland tho obvs a lot of that is bron based, that special synergy when a weak org lets its start player run the show

damn lonzo just did a pretty sick chris paul impression for a few minutes there

gonna pour one out for charles wade barkley tonight

andrew wiggins is 4/18 so far in this game

lol towns keeps jumping for no reason at Embiid's drives, euro steps to a wide open layup

76ers vs Wolves is good ILH should be watching it imo

who says no: healthy joel embiid for karl anthony towns and andrew wiggins

philly

i agree

wow that shot by Ben!

having that level of passing from guys embiid and simmons' size is crazy

jeez horrible defense giving jimmy a wide open shot

this isn't news but ben simmons' free throw form is hellish

embiid is not really of this earth i don't see how you move him rn unless he starts falling apart again

closest comp for his FT shooting is joakim noah xp

not exactly an original thought but its pretty funny how many professional basketball players cant shoot a free throw to save their lives

the free throw is an hilarious prank on basketball players

who says no: healthy joel embiid for karl anthony towns and andrew wiggins

i'm gonna go a little hard here but i just don't like wiggins at all and i have huge reservations about kat

KAT should be making another jump this year but he's regressed (so far). might be the coaches fault tho

he seems to have the totally wrong idea of how to play defense

he's kinda slow footed

if he doesn't like contact he should be playing a different sport, it's really that simple

plenty of slow footed bigs get the job done tho.

yeah he shd be able to do this

sixers been killing the wolves on that same cut like every possession

yeah it's really dumb that the wolves can't figure this out

respect to thibs but i'm not sure he can fix this

i mean look at this WHY IS HE JUMPING

yah maybe thibs cant fix it otm.

Strong defensive effort from KAT and Wiggins right here......... pic.twitter.com/r9fDtWsAPX

what if the players hate thibs

quite possible. or maybe jimmy?

hah kat left his feet on the final possession and fouled so joel could tie it up

welcome back to kawhi leonard

honestly shocking how bad he looks sometimes

exactly xp, there's absolutely no reason for it.

maybe its the yips

nba using the d league as a laboratory is pretty cool, they cld try out some of the myriad suggestions for rule changes why not

The NBA has reached a deal with Twitch to stream G League games. Is there a better way to watch basketball? Maybe. And the NBA wants to find out. https://t.co/U7ZTXZTPo3

sweet

the nba is so far ahead on so many fronts. windhorst dropped pretty casually on a pod recently that there were some overtures to adam silver about taking over as nfl commissioner. he said no.

yeah there was a big article abt goodell that said that too, silvers all lol u crazy

Walk into the Warriors’ practice facility, and what is the team blaring during its on-court workout? “Sweet Home Alabama,” of course.

been seeing a some Karl Anthony Kanter jokes on twitter.

maybe if the internet shames him like it did harden it will help
