2019 nba OFFSEASON news, rumors, drama, and recriminations

LeBron+Davis is scary

I’m at the spurs-magic game rn, denounce looks good but the magic have been picking apart the future Austin spurs out here. their size is gonna be a problem for a lot of teams (bamba, gordon, isaac especially)

Dejounte lmao not denounce

does bamba look like he got any better?

short answer yes

Daryl Morey gonna get fired for not being quite fash enough

Isaac looks like he made a leap huh

offensively not yet, but what a monster on d. he can probably guard the whole floor.

I guess Matt referred to this but goddamn, this is some bullshit

woke imperialism

this looks really bad for the NBA

Stuff like this gets my little shred of nascent patriotism up

I can't say it's their responsibility to be activists or anything, certainly more of the onus falls on the owners and the league, but it would be real dope if SOMEONE on the Rockets spoke out against China's bullying. Looks like it ain't Harden. Is Enes Kanter really gonna be the only dude in the league with a social conscience on global issues? ("global" being an important caveat because I know the league has plenty of guys who've stood up for things in their own backyard, like Bron).

damn

Chinese folk be super touchy good lord

I mean not that "you WILL stand for the song about our homeland!" Americans aren't...

do Chinese people really care about this or is it just a few people with a ton of money

authoritarianism complicates things

Some pretty bad defense there, but he recognized that at once and took advantage.

lonzo just hit a three and it looked a little different? maybe more towards the middle of his face then the left side

both these teams should be pretty watchable this year.

slowing working his way towards the correct side of his head

both these teams should be pretty watchable this year.

Watching Zion it’s really hard to comprehend how people think he should play center.

Michael Porter Jr debut tonight....

i think he shd "play center" on offense ie have shooters around him

Yeah but he should have a shot blocker around him

Hayes is a perfect fit, love what they’re doing down there

yeah was just admiring how they flipped hunter for hayes and alexander-walker

this jazz team is perfect for smart guy sports pundits to love and lose in the 2nd round

Second round is a pretty good prospect for a team that just lost Anthony Davis.

they never had him

oops, thought we were still talking about the pellies. my mistake.

i don't think they'll make the second round
