2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

these nets graffiti unis are bizarre

bigtime graf guy turned designer (haze) did them and they are booty

a graffiti inspired uni could be pretty sweet but this is just thrown together. all the parts look like separate design elements.

nets have 13 turnovers thru 1 1/2 quarters.

deadndre jordan looks so washed

yeah he hasnt been good for a couple years

they paid him 44 million so he could hang out with his friends. maybe the warriors shouldve traded for him last year.

rj barrett looks like a player

ten rings on

tankin

Kerr on Draymond: “The one thing we won’t do is run him into the ground ... right now he’s kind of the lone survivor.”

Says Warriors will watch his workload and manage his minutes. Says Draymond will be a teacher for the younger players on the roster.

no other way to read that

It’s the right thing

ya no brainer

this reminds me a bit of when David Robinson went down that time for the Spurs and they had their one-off shitty year and landed Duncan.

def

julius randle looks real bad man

Ah back to watching harden miss step back 3 after step back 3, it’s like the nba never left

xp i haven't seen much knicks prior to tonight but right now he seems like the odd man out among their 28 power forwards.

Not a bad way for Thanasis Antetokounmpo to get his first NBA points...pic.twitter.com/ac1ry29Y0t

lol jayson tatum just won a game with some midrange bullshit

that was a 3!

well they changed it to a 2 but anyway

tatums —shooting game— seems to have matured this year but his driving is often still robotic and aimless, seems like the thing he needs to figure out is how to use the former to set up the latter

haha it was closer to the line than i initially thought.

he definitely was getting lost on some drives tonight. he's not strong enough to just power up when the defender stays in front of him.

tough shot but he got separation and it was pure

the reason he's so tough to evaluate is that when he looks good he looks like the smoothest most talented player on the planet

i still totally believe in him, like obvs u never know if a player will fulfill their potential but its def there imho

i agree in that the things he needs to get better at are easy to identify and mostly fixable. at 21 he still has a ton of time to add strength which is what i think will help him the most.

yeah hes actually got a kinda huge frame

oh yeah the capacity to add some bulk is there.

glad it seems like hes taking his time w that, bulking up fast is an injury vector, and bulk is not really exactly what youre looking for anyway

spurs are kind of a bad team without dejounte

Pure muscle bulk was more a factor in the 1990s NBA than now.

if you were watching tonight's game with no knowledge of the last 10 years, you wouldn't necessarily think that lebron james is better than luka doncic

Otm.

Also I’m def sticking to my the bucks really screwed up by not keeping brogdon thought leadership

ya thats lookin p good right now

Don’t think we’ve talked about how good doncics body looks this season. Imagine if Jokic cared as much as doncic.

watching lebron so far this season it seems like he's *really* picking his spots

Hella good vibes are back in boston

That was a very similar play to the one where Kyrie snapped on Hayward for passing it to Tatum last year. Tatum hits it this time, sending Kemba wild with joy on the other end of the court after the game ends. He was high fiving fans and everything.

lakers gonna need to upgrade on avery bradley

luka looks concussed

lakers are going to need to upgrade on a lot of things

But they're getting beat by a team with less talent as is

Or are they lol

kuzma not getting crunch time minutes on either end of the floor tonight

vibe check

Marcus Morris said he’s happy for the Celtics. Said their energy feels good and they seem to be enjoying themselves.

Lol

Lebron picked his spot this game

Was about to yell at screen if they didn't call LeBron for forearm shove. 2nd play in a row he did it
