2020 nba offseason draft free agency etc

got all the physical skills as they say

he just needs to find the disrespect in the game

the scheduled nbatv games aren't available with league pass unless you pay for it, so yeah. it's an additional 7 bucks a month but probably necessary.
BTW, it's cheaper to do this by the month than annually.

"lol, it's preseason dude"

was ambivalent about hoops coming back all things considered but I forgot that ball is life and now I am pumped

lamelo ball is life

very cool that our no. 1 draft pick Anthony "Goose" Edwards became an NBA All-star today

wld be funny if all the top guys in this despised draft panned the ef out

that would be amazing

if you gaze into the nba...

real sad loss for Wolves fans, longtime Wolves play by play guy Tom Hanneman died today

back in the day it was him and pre-fame Kevin Harlan on the games, better broadcast team than the Wolves deserved

by all accounts a great guy

yeah i'm seeing raves about the guy in sports media twitter. must have been an amazing booth with him and early harlan.

I was a wolves fan a long time ago, the first team I really liked. I would watch wolves games on league pass. And year after year the constant was Hanneman. Sometimes he was the sideline guy, sometimes the play by play guy, sometime in studio. And you got the sense that he had no ego about switching between roles, that everyone just loved him. So honestly this sucks.

nuggets are having fun out there

Nuggets really might have too many good players? Injuries tend to sort that out

Kyrie is the human embodiment of "this fuckin' guy"

BOSTON -- Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving says he plans to burn sage before every game this season to honor his Native American heritage.

Irving was seen burning sage -- which is known as "smudging'' -- on the court at TD Garden during warm-ups before his Nets beat the Boston Celtics 113-89 on Friday night in the NBA preseason finale for both teams.

feels kind of presumptuous to smudge other teams stadiums

he should do it at home tho during introductions just slowly walk out with a smoking smudge stick while everyone is getting amped up

there is footage of him smudging in the celtics thread btw

Any other ilhors want to do fantasy? We’ve got 7 and need one more to have a season. Draft is tomorrow night as of now.

o/ spottie

Not sure what that means?

hadn't seen the other thread. joined

o/ = hand raised

ronron 4 life

It’s so crazy to me. I literally pissed away a complete career and still walked away with A ring , citizenship award (lol) , third team all nba , multiple all defense teams, all star , DPOY while being depressed and putting in for retirement at 23yrs old. Lol

Nice thx xp.

heat’s new derrick jones jr has looked good in the preseason

is it just me or are there way more players with "jr" after their name these days

Hey good to hear this. A complicated dude

Michael Porter Jr.: “Everybody knows Will’s a starter. Him saying that shouldn’t have been blown up the way it was bc he has started, he has produced. That’s not immature or anything on his part. He views himself as a starter. I view myself as a starter.”

Said sacrifice is key.

oh man

i thought he was gonna be a bust bc he cant shoot and would get bullied as a defender, but my god his passing is beautiful

I think the Twolves fucked up

I think the Twolves fucked up

aint shit new

btw fyi the leading rookie scorer during the preseason is DEVIN VASSELL

my thought process is like this
1. who is devin vassell
2. should i look it up
3. hes prob just whoever the spurs drafted
4. fin

He’s really good but I think he had an injury teams didn’t like

i think in lots of mock drafts ppl had the suns taking him but the suns did the suns thing and made a crazy draft pick so then the spurs got him

devo had no major injury history that im aware of, tho he did have a pre-draft video of him shooting with weird mechanics. with derrick white and keldon johnson injured he has been the spurs' best player in the preseason. he's going to be a steals machine.

and also he can shoot from multiple spots on the floor, that helps a lot

Rudy Gobert has agreed to a 5-year, $205M extension with the Jazz, he told ESPN. It’s the biggest contract ever for a big man. Gobert: “It means they believe in me. They believe in what we’ve been building over the years with this whole organization.” https://t.co/hPJwYMdSS5

utah is all-in on being pretty good.

yeah lol - the curse of the small market, they do need to make the difference between the max and super max not count against the cap

If bubble Donovan mitchell is Donovan mitchell 2021 then I’d say they have a pretty bright future! Conley thing didn’t work tho.
