2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

HS ball is still so bad. Even the good teams are hard to watch for much of the game. Went to a game last week that they won by 70 points.

Not having a shot clock is a complete joke. So many kids lacking basic fundamentals. Lotta meatheads that are better at football but play hoops to stay in shape, athletic but absolutely no finesse. lotta hoisting.

ugh the hoisting
I was pretty impressed by games I saw in IL, but that was some top tier talent. Specifically sought out the best players/teams. Saw Jabari as a sophmore lose to F Kaminsky in a tourney at UIC pavilion.

Nice. The AAU games are better than the high school games. Ive gone to a few of those but theres rarely a place to sit and the atmosphere is weird energy.

wld like to check out aau lol

I guess there just aren't 50,000 talented hoops coaches to spread around and the best ones get snatched up to the college level.

accurate

wld like to check out aau lol

just walk into basically any big sports complex in the summer and there will be tons of games going on

nice

The Jabari (Simeon) vs Kaminsky (Benet Xian Academy) was proof of the value of being well-coached. Simeon wayyyy more talented but Benet wayyyy better coached. Benet just fundamentaled them to death.

"knicks pursuing d'angelo russell" yes please

good idea to fire your gm right b4 the deadline

poor horf made the wrong choice

Al Horford asked if players need to called out:"There's some stuff going on in our locker room, and we'll keep that internal"

I gotta go to Oakland v Tech someday ... Marshawn's hs vs Lillard's. I'm sure the games are unwatchable though.

lol most horf call out ever

Woj ended this segment by calling LA an 'arms race' right now between the Clippers and Lakers trying to acquire Marcus Morris.

man if any of these contenders have some spare contracts laying around might want to take a look at horf

idk where phillys head is at obvs but you gotta think theyre at least considering getting out from under that contract

they just need shooters and more shooters

you should!

was Redick too expensive?

Ainge has gotta still be paying Horford somehow.

horf rip up the contract and come back to boston where u r loved

If i recall they didnt make an offer on redick? might be wrong on that.

harris imo. some ugly dudes on the squad tho

when are more trades

ask woj

woj when are more trades

this guy cld help a team

The Suns are fielding trade calls on Kelly Oubre with 22 hours and change to go before the NBA trade deadline, league sources say

— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) February 5, 2020

why would they get rid of him smh

remember when the suns were stocked with good PGs and they got rid of them all... remember when the suns were stocked with good wings and got rid of them all...

(josh jackson was supposed to be good)

he can opt out and they might not want to pay him i read a couple days ago i think

Marcus Morris and the Knicks have everyone's attention, but the Pistons have also received calls from multiple contenders for his brother, Markieff Morris.

The Lakers, Clippers, Bucks, Sixers, and Celtics are among those teams interested in Markieff Morris, per league sources.

wld welcome the other morris w open arms

he cn play some center is scrappy shoots the 3

imo you should pay young good players that the fanbase loves just a thought what do i know tho

yeah idk what abt fucking up repeatedly instead

Woj and Lowe saying the Nuggets might consider trading the farm for Bradley Beal. When I went to a nuggz-wiz game earlier this season I noticed that Beal and Jokic seem to like each other a lot...

dey shd do that

theyre the team who has the most farm

Don’t mean this as a criticism but pat connaughton should do what brandon Jennings did and decline his insane slam dunk contest invitation

Sixers fans thought Brett brown was really cute when they were tanking

the few I knew hated him

hes a nice guy and his accent is cool.

woj saying iggy to heat is warming up

his accent is incredible

you know whats even better than getting luke kennard, getting devin booker to play defense haha

getting Melo vibes there

out for a jog lol

it's like when you're guarding someone and you're both tired and you go lol let's agree to not run ok? ok deal lol. but Book forgot to include his opponent in that convo.

he could actually have stayed that speed if he would have just offered some resistance to the straight path to the basket. you know step one step more to the left
