Regular Degular Redux - 2019-20 NBA Season thread 2

However I will be buying this:

why would the Knicks do that?? not that Brooks was good but like, he was an active NBA player and *checks notes* not 52

that's even before Dolan right?

im watching ESPN... kd is playing derrick jones jr in 2k. idk guys. watching people play video games has never interested me.

its only good w/ high skill 1v1 stuff like competitive fighting games imo

i tuned in for a couple minutes and it looked like they were playing on a fairly low difficulty but i haven't played 2k in a million years so grain of salt

2k is more fun on the lower difficulty setting ime

i hate how sports video games get more and more realistic with each launch. give me NBA Jam / Street type stuff any day.

otm, but also franchise mode/roster updates. nba jam is on the apple store rn with like jeff green on the thunder.

So I guess if you die now you just automatically get to be in the HoF?

lol poor melo

Glen Taylor is low key one of the 10 worst nba owners ever. The Joe Smith contract fiasco alone...

this is a thing that exists

I really cannot take the lack of sports. It was my main way of managing anxiety

and now they have taken our trades.......

The NBA and NBPA have agreed to extend the moratorium on transactions (agreements, trades, player/team options) indefinitely, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Business remains paused.

Report: Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert relationship 'doesn't appear salvageable' https://t.co/iS4j597bDX

I think they should trade mitchell if this is the case, he’s a lil overrated

rudy's trade value is probably compromised, too

I think they should trade mitchell if this is the case, he’s a lil overrated

i feel this way about gobert

mitchell still has some upside rudy we know who he is

hes the rona guy

cant miss him hes like 7-3 and thought the virus was funny

tbf Rudy’s absolute idiocy set off a chain reaction that caused the country to start shutting down and prob saved a lot of lives, a classic american tale

Sources confirm to ESPN that Donovan Mitchell's desire to get away from Rudy Gobert is "100% legit". Among other issues, Gobert would frequently kiss Mitchell on the lips at random times in the locker room. Many believe this is how Mitchell contracted the COVID-19 virus.

such a troll lol

rudy "no chill" gobert

gobert was giving off weird vibes when they were still playing. there has to be more to this.

yeah was thinking mitchell prob already did not like him

just turned on this horse tournament thing and it is not very entertaining, an ill-conceived mess

iim cutting them some slack bc how in the fuck do u do sports rn

yeah i mean that's why im watching bc it is ball in some form

i feel like the events we are getting to replace our normal events whether they be sports or music or whatever are so bad theyre more depressing than just nothing at all, i havent watched any of them but thats my impression

some of the stuff celebrities are trying is so bad its funny like the imagine video and for that im thankful

they should just show old games imo

i am real sick of being in the celebs' homes

the celebs really are at it again

it's a damn shame

mb this is the apocalypse

After 22 years in the Chicago Bulls organization, GM Gar Forman has been fired.

They’re poaching Denver’s front office which is a good sign

There’s a bunch of WNBA couples, maybe they all could do one on one games at home? This is a good idea I just had! Not joking about it!

Joe Ingles and his wife could play that weird hoopball thing that she was a pro at

crazy mitchell robinson started at williams https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/29023069/the-luke-walton-all-stars-nine-surprising-players-nba-season

I’m glad McDermott has figured things out. Has his defense gotten better? Those first couple years teams really focused on him

mb this is the apocalypse

Don't worry, Our Lord John Paxson was retained. Had a brand new position created just for him awwww.

jeez KATs mom passed away from the coronavirus :(
