It is the years 2018-19 in the National Basketball Association (NBA) - The Regular Season

that series only went 6 games, was also the birthplace of "nuggets will win the nba playoffs" iirc because the celtics were out at that point

jesus that was a fast end to the melo experiment

about a week ago a friend asked me why the rockets were struggling and i said "well for one they signed melo this summer" and he was like "ohhhhh, i forgot about that, makes sense."

so brook lopez is klay thompson now

nothin more fun in the NBA than when some random dude starts feelin' it

btw I like the jimmy deal a lot more for the sixers than for the wolves...you could make the argument that those 4 first rounders they possibly could have gotten from houston were unlikely to yield a player as good as saric or covington, but...what is the plan? those are 2 solid players but it seems like they're consigning themselves to mediocrity in the medium-term now. if you trade for the picks you can at least hope to get lucky with one of them or even have them to flip for another star down the road. now they're just gonna be a borderline playoff team for the next few years

league pass alert nuggs/bucks 3mins left

ugh nikola

Some really bad possessions by the nuggets over the last few minutes

Seems like they don’t know what their best five man roster is

as soon as morris came out the offense fell apart

ugh gary why foul there?

absolutely embarrassing last 4 minutes

Still not sold on Jamal Murray as a point guard. And if they’re just gonna go multiple possessions without running it through Jokic then idk.

Really dumb playing there yah

I really hate malone man

that better have been all harris on that foul

So many head scratchers in the 4th q.

Boston only 37 in the first half what is their deal.

they look gassed

it’s kinda weird how the blazers are very good

i know, it defies gravity

TRAE!

wow lakers down 1 lebron at ft line misses both but they scrap for the ball and he ends up with a tip dunk. trae gets ball for one last try and throws up a floater and tyson chandler blocks it right at the apex.

Daman Rangoola @damanr

Carmelo Anthony and Vince Carter could not be more polar opposite in how they handled their physical decline in their careers and this is why Vince at 41 is a viable pro and Melo at 34 is not

its funny cos vince was kind of a diva in his prime but somewhere along the way he shed his ego

there's more to it than that tho, vince just has more skills at this point in his career

yeah def. for instance tonight he d'd up lebron in the 4th q of a close game.

his years in dallas were his transition into essential bench player

Adam Himmelsbach @AdamHimmelsbach

Kyrie: "Right now I think it would be nice if we had someone that was a 15-year vet, a 14-year vet that could kind of help us race along the regular season and understand it’s a long marathon rather than just a full-on sprint."

???????

lol yes what you want to do is add carmelo to your stacked team

horfords 11 years arent enough?

yeah this deal def has a uh wide range if potential outcomes for philly but i think it was p much a no brainer, it wldve been better to get someone closer to embiids age but its not like u just have yr pick of jimmy caliber players, of course in a couple years he cld easily be an injured bully making 30m a year

Yeah all exactly otm I know I said I’d avoid jimmy but if I was running the sixers getting him for 2 ok dudes and flotsam is a go 10/10 times, risk of it going bad included

I also think Embiid is a much stronger personality and much more likely to either get along with jimmy or at least work a well with him on court even if they dislike each other than KAT

I watched the lakers game because I haven’t figured out how to overcome blackout restrictions in denver. Lebron looked incredibly old and at times kind of pathetic. He ISO’d on Omari Spellman like 6 times and I think he succeeded once.

I feel like Trae Young will settle in to being just a good nba starting point guard. No revolutionary scoring machine, pretty flawed but not bad at all.

yeah hate to say it but I do wonder if we're about to get a bunch of "have we forgotten what a dominant force of nature Lebron was just ONE YEAR AGO?" articles in the next couple months

hes looked really lazy this year, but it may just be his body not letting him do things. seems like he settles for that step back three way too much. h

Nice to see Millsap look like a living human again

being a living human kicks ass

It’s funny how Mo Bamba has been so good but Vucevic for 13 games has essentially been a superstar

he's surely a trade candidate right?

Yeah but I can’t figure out where he’d go

I'll take him

iguodala for vucevic works ;-)

KCP for Vuc was my pre Tyson Chandler trade thinking.

He'd fit good in New Orleans but that would p much be for picks.

How about the Nets? He'd make sense with Allen I think.

I can't see the Nets giving up their first own pick in forever and they'll want to keep any young talent Orlando would want in return.

how about the spurs?
