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

time for my semi-regular fuck league pass post since there's exactly one game on (the battle of la) and it's blacked out for me, a guy who lives in massachusetts.

league pass truly a bad product that cld be great if not for meddling business guys

btw does anyone here doing the youtube tv-league pass combo have any idea what the deal is with which announcing team u get there doesnt seem to be any pattern and a couple times i watched part of a game live then the rest on dvr and it had switched what the heck, wld improve my life to be able to control that shit tbqh

yeah, if only to avoid the spurs announcers. i use league pass through roku and just pick home/away when i start a game.

lot of brow trade talk focusing on the lakers which seems crazy to me the pelicans have to hold out for tatum if they decide theyre going to do this http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/25619439/anthony-davis-trade-talk-biggest-story-nba

no one the lakers can offer is that good?

Wiggs is mad

wig-mad

its funny, lakers were like NO WAY WE WILL NOT TRADE ANY OF OUR YOUNG CORE FOR KAWHI and now that it looks like ingram is never gonna be great and lonzo still shoots weird its like wow they dont have very many assets for big trades now, huh. i kinda wonder if the lakers cant pull off a trade if they will be able to get any big free agents this summer. either that or they know KD is coming or something stupid like that.

sure looks like klutch is going to try to force the trade to l.a. with all the usual threats about not re-signing anywhere else.

if thats the case, pelicans gotta ask for kuzma, hart, ingram, and a 1st at minimum

oh yeah ask for the whole damn farm.

John wall season ending heel surgery oops

oh shit

How much are the Wizards going to pay the surgeon to fuck up the operation so he has to retire and insurance will pay off his contract?

the wizards are a train wreck lol

bruh

i guess this clarifies one thing for them which is that wall isn’t tradable next season even when that kicker goes away.

almost gotta dump porter and or Beal now

just found out josh okogie went to my high school

just found out about josh okogie altogether tbh

kevin huerter's having a nice rookie season. nice to see. he looked like a frightened teenager the first few games

Wizards gotta embrace the tank for a season

i’d dump porter b/c he sucks but there’s less point in trading beal if you know you can’t do a full teardown anytime soon and move wall too.

yeah they’re kinda stuck... you won’t be able to trade beal for a any established players better than him and dumping him for lottery picks doesn’t make much sense either

at what point do the wiz just bite the bullet and buy wall out lol

they were stuck before the injury too lol

That’s why they should tank this one and infest the core with a young lotto pick.

the 2017-18 grizzlies approach

I've been a wall skeptic for a long time but I think people just need to come to terms with the fact that he is and always has been a less impactful player than his reputation suggests. he's sort of melo's successor in that sense

https://www.basketball-reference.com/play-index/pcm_finder.fcgi?request=1&sum=1&player_id1_hint=John+Wall&player_id1_select=John+Wall&y1=2019&player_id1=walljo01&idx=players&player_id2_hint=Carmelo+Anthony&player_id2_select=Carmelo+Anthony&y2=2013&player_id2=anthoca01&idx=players

they signed similarly absurd contracts that for similar reasons their teams felt obligated to offer

Yet another player who could’ve been an all time great had he ever developed a shot

Also he has no motor. Probably hates hoopin tbh

yeah when he’s engaged he’s deadly but it just doesn’t happen very often.

millsap back!

knicks are down 37 at halftime

wizards won lol

monte is my new favorite
http://bkref.com/tiny/OVcrr

wiz were definitely underperforming to some extent, they can be an over .500 team even without wall so it'll be funny if that normalizes now

blazers & warriors jerseys are absolutely searing my eyes

Jamal Murray entered this game at 42.1 percent from the field and 29.7 percent from three.

After going 16-of-24 from the field and 9-of-11 from three, he's now at 43.1 percent from the field and 33 percent from three.

His TS% went from .505 to .520.https://t.co/BVZLTsC7kn

who says iggy hasn't been playing with any intensity in the regular season for 2 straight seasons now?

Andre Iguodala ejected for throwing the ball wayyyyyyy up in the crowd, and someone was mad pic.twitter.com/BqMJcxSFgI

ok so i just finished last night's twolves/hawks game and did not realize how many times the twolves hilariously pissed the game away. sorry matt i think josh okogie is gonna work out tho

lmao that blazers fan teeing iggy up

that was me I astral projected into that guy

figured

That ejection was bogus but props to the blazers and warriors for not liking each other enough to make reg season games entertaining.

Also I’ve def never seent curry this fumed and Kerr’s rotations are mind boggling atm

Rarely do you see Curry THIS mad. This is close to mouthpiece-tossing mad 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/klbj7poTDa

Ayton has been playing with much more fervor of late. Had a 24 point quarter tonight

And the wiz proved last year they were better as a team when wall is out. The ball moves around much more, think they had 35 assists tonight. Sans wall their floor raises but their ceiling lowers.

wiz rotation tonight was 8 guys, five of whom have essentially no NBA careers to speak of and another one of whom was jeff green. they put up 130
