2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

NSAIDs have some side effects that can be pretty harsh. they can fuck up your kidneys. that's one reason why you aren't supposed to take NSAIDs for more than three days without seeing a physician. steroids have even worse side effects. Kyrie should be using them to assist his body to heal, but sparingly, as an adjunct to rest, ice, and other therapy.

The issue with NSAIDs is that athletes exceed the dosage

it's probably easy to make a case against anti-inflammatories when you don't actually want to play this season.

no comment

So garbage that a handful of our most exciting and entertaining players haven’t played much or at all this season. Kyrie curry kd klay Zion Oladipo

people were making a big deal out of ratings being down this year and its like no shit, all those guys are injured + they bet like 50 national games on curry and zion and lost

reasonable point

yeah

tbf kyrie is himself inflammatory and he might be afraid of mood altering drugs

So is Blake Griffin retired

he and kyrie both

blake is in detroit tho so no one cares about him any more. hes only played in half their games and is shooting 35% from the field

it’s doubly weird cuz i thought last year he played as well as he ever has in his career. just seems like his body is breaking down i guess

yeah started near the end of last year and he probably shouldnt have played in the playoffs but he tried to gut it out.

seems like he could stand to lose 15-20 lbs to ease the burden on the knees.

all the past juicing probs hasnt helped

I could see him turning it around next year with how hard he “trains”

I guess I’m a Drummond defender on here but I actually think he’d be pretty great on the hawks. The hawks should also be calling about Malik Beasley.

he wld def make them better

might not be a bad idea to be not awful tbh

Apparently this draft sucks so maybe they’ve lost enough for their taste

Sacramento is among the teams that has tried to engage the Lakers in Kyle Kuzma trade talks, league sources say. The Kings know they would have to include sharpshooter (and soon-to-be restricted free agent) Bogdan Bogdanovic, for starters, in a Kuzma deal

What the hell

kings are such a chaotic presence

what a strange idea by the kings

bogan would help the lakers a ton. this is a very kangz idea. why dont they just... pay him? mayb try and trade harrison barnes instead??

i understand why they would trade him but maybe don't do it for a power forward that you're going to have to pay on the same timeline as bogdan

GM Tommy Sheppard stated he wants to re-sign Davis Bertans, but that hasn't stopped teams from showing interest ahead of the deadline.

bertans cld change things for a good team

It’s such a crazy situation with bertans because if he comes to your team and continues to play like this you really might be winning the title. From that perspective they should be demanding a king’s ransom, but he’s had two serious knee injuries.

The sixers would be terrifying with him for example

even injuries aside hes only been playing like this for a couple months he might just be on a heater

An NBA executive told me within the last 18 months that they call the Kings and a handful of teams more often than any others for basically this exact reason. You never know what they might go for. https://t.co/MVC1oQ5t45

if u want to see embiids very dislocated finger

X rated

jokic just turned in what has to be his highest-scoring half ever, 27 points against the hawks lol

i get why the wiz wanna re-sign bertans bcuz they need some feel good story but i feel like they should be shopping him to every contender for like 2 first round picks. his shooting is just bonkers.

agreed, seems like they could get a nice haul and he's a luxury item on a team that has to do some rebuilding.

the wizards do play highly entertaining terrible basketball, respect

jokic has 40 through 3 quarters

god bless the hawks defense

lol he's still a minus 7

Jokic has literally lost a pound per game this season

wiz have beat the celtics and heat at home in the last week w/o brad beal

spurs beat the bucks. lamarcus in the last 6 or so games has become fuckin reggie miller. he's shooting 46% on 3's now and taking more than ever.
