2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

Anthony Davis to the locker room

Lebron’s hair is really cool. Cool that he’s doing that

Trae couple weeks it looks like

Jokic seems bored

Has Jokic ever started a season in shape or engaged?

Brow 40/20 after 3qs

lakers took like 25 free throws in that quarter

Lakers committed back to back flagrants and the refs didn’t have the balls to call both. Lakers then went on a 22-1 run or something

Grayson not gonna get a thing from the refs

in the heat-grizzlies game the heat announcers were talking about how they thought herro was purposefully going at grayson allen. even the other white guys are like, ur a fuckin disgrace

He’s def the most punkable dude in the league

when you get thrown out of a summer league game for taking shots at guys word tends to get around.

IIRC he got ejected for committing a playoff foul

he needs to get redick to show him how to do a podcast

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young will not need an MRI on his sprained right ankle and will be listed as day-to-day, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

He truly is Steph 2.0. Already ahead of schedule re:extended range and ankle issues.

I guess it was BPA for them but it’s weird that they picked Coby White to play with Zach Lavine

Kris Dunn one of the worst NBA players who is awesome at defense that I’ve seen. Way up there

I had hopes for him on offense but he is completely shook out there

I wonder who the worst players at each position who were also awesome at defense are. Feel like Biyombo is in the mix

Can't say I've watched Kris Dunn much but I'm having trouble finding a stat that reflects his defensive excellence. What should I look at?

Deflections monster I think

There’s a weird energy to Markelle Fultz, like he’s playing the game drunk

his stats seem ok this season but have only seen highlights. he def has a unique look/style to his game.

I love this interviewing the players pregame while they're warming up thing that ESPN is doing right now with Marcus Smart.

Karl Anthony Towns needs some help

wolves should be doing everything possible to rid themselves of wiggins

da big guys gettin rowdy

KAT AND EMBIID FIGHT pic.twitter.com/AWe03SHJVq

Brogdon looks good

I like this pacers team. Lamb and Warren are two of “my guys.”

warren is actually playing defence

I had an NBA player tell me today that Embiid boasts that he owns Towns. That he's afraid of him. I bet Embiid talked smack and hit him some and Towns has just had enough. Not placing blame either way, the scrum was a mess. But if I know Embiid says he owns Towns, KAT knows too.

so -- switched from the nets to the sixers. i *used* to live in philly.

where will you guys go for coverage in the post-deadspin era? the ringer?

the sixers are a much better choice than either of the nyc teams and i say this as someone who is required by law to hate philadelphia sports

we .... are... the coverage

philly is a fun and singularly weird team i endorse fandom of the sixers

this seems like a fun team. and i do remember my time in philly fondly. and i did grow up mostly in new jersey.

still feels wrong though. my family are very much new yorkers not philadelphians

lol i never really used deadspin for sports coverage. the ringer is ok, the athletic has acquired a lot of talented nba writers, but honestly espn still has the a-team.

sixers might be cursed, knicks def cursed, nets maybe

thinkin bout getting league pass, to actually watch hoops this season -- cool or nah

do it

we .... are... the coverage

YES HENNY

league pass is mostly decent but educate yourself on the blackout restrictions that are going to impact you--particularly west of the mississippi league pass is notorious for some very illogical blackouts.

athletic is paywalled but we have a thread for c/p requested articles from it

kevin love has been putting up some insane vintage kevin love numbers so far but he'll prob be hurt by december so whatevs

you can use a vpn to sign up for international league pass and bypass blackouts. apparently honduras is the cheapest option

man i may actually do that next year if i can get nbatv games

russ is 1 for 7 from the floor against... the wizards

the nets defence will continue to suck while they persist in starting harris, taurean prince, deandre and kyrie
