2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

its so crazy the dubs are rolling out the worst roster in the league

the hornets play really hard most of the time. i don't know if borrego is a good coach but i'm inclined to like him for that reason.

borrego was a good asst with the spurs

can i just say to bise that i love saying "regular degular" in my head every time i click this thread

it’s v good

Yah good thread title very simple

Btw it was the 17-18 magic I was thinking of. Started season 8-4 and ended up 25-57.

lol

Watch Kemba's hesitation step at the end of the first half. HE ALMOST WALKED OFF WITH THE HORNETS

nah, it looks like he wanted to say something more to the hornets player, but saw he was already turned and walking away, so he bagged it.

These clippers and blazers throwbacks are v cool

aaron baynes looked amazing tonight

hes been so good

the blazers seem destined to be a bad rebounding team with their injuries but man zubac is such a beast on the glass

i've been impressed by what i've seen of zubac this season. he should be playing more.

Pretty cool, he says booker is his fav player and it’s who he watches the most

Blazers gotta do everything they can to get whiteside off this team asap

how'd they end up with him in the first place

traded harkless and meyers

unforced error?

Whiteside was 1/9 fg when I posted that. I stand by it despite him having a fine game since

the blazers under olshey have always had a weird thing for centers... for that reason them getting whiteside didn't surprise me but trading two rotation players for him when there's gonna be plenty of nights you don't even want him on the floor never made much sense to me. it seems like they just wanted to shake up their bench come hell or high water. meyers leonard btw has been awesome for the heat.

leonard needed a fresh start elsewhere. he had too many resets with the blazers.

needed a replacement for nurk while he’s recovering, olshey’s always had a thing for whiteside, they got him cheap, expiring contract can be flipped if it doesn’t work out (it will not work out) xp

Already on my 3rd Pistons game and can report that Drummond is Drummond but more so this year. Curious to see how he meshes with Blake and a rejuvenated Rose, and what kind of deal he ends up with at the end of the season. I’m sure he loses some rbs once Blake is back, but it’s not crazy that an engaged prime Drummond can reliably give you a 20/20 every night.

he looks lil bit smoother on offense

it's hard to figure out how to value drummond. nobody needs a center that much and the limitations are there, on the other hand he never misses a game and keeps improving on the margins.

yeah he still does heaps of drummondy stuff. hard to know how much you would want to pay for the privilege of committing to drummond centric basketball

i think casey is doing a pretty good job of coaching this average roster

Ok I don’t think chucking up 50 3s a game is gonna work for the Bucks

Drummond contract year! Can’t imagine he’ll get the huge multi year deal someone like him would’ve gotten in the past. Would be cool to see him somewhere else; he’s only played on one team with a winning record his entire career. Have to say, lots of dead expressions from him tonight, kinda reminds me of Cousins putting up a 30/20 in another loss and constantly having an Oh Well look.

Seems like he’s got the free throw q settled, which makes him so much more of a weapon on offense.

heat-lakers super late start on nba TV should be fun 2nite

Lowe mentioned Brogdon’s stroke in his 10 Things column this week but have to say, he has the worst form of any 50-40-90 shooter. Weird ass release, and Oladipo’s release sucks, too, never feel confident on the shot.

it's hard to argue with results

aka "ball don't lie"

D lo 45 points

i know dlo can get buckets but the wolves really should have tried some other tactics to guard him down the stretch. i can tell you with complete confidence that he hasn't even considered passing for the past 10 minutes so why not try a trap here or there?

They believe okogie or roco can stop him

the problem was that they were switching screens and ending up with kat on him and kat did not look good defending out on the perimeter

Yah their d scheme is not great. Kinda hard when you have 2-3 minus defenders out there tho

KAT is letting him score on purpose

lol good point

Ha yup

kat: wow this guy is really good *waggles eyebrows*

luka and zinger both having huge games while somehow (w 4mins left) losing to the knicks

box score wise looks like a rough game for literally every other mav

marcus morris living the dream, attempting 6 more FGs than the next highest guy on his team

(that guy being conscience-free gunner bobby portis, himself neck-and-neck in attempts with shameless gunner julius randle)

Dubs tanking the right way

You just have to laugh at that knicks roster
