NBA 2020-21 reg season 1st half thread

I need that last jersey to say Ball 2 Ball and also it’s a Disney+ show

god help me, i'm excited for this

two really juicy match ups tonight

can’t wait for the nets hype machine to start kicking into gear before they implode in the playoffs. i’m practically giddy

Sources: The Warriors will start James Wiseman at center tonight in Brooklyn. No summer league, no preseason, only a sprinkle of college hoops, but he’ll debut against KD and Kyrie. Into the fire. He’s impressed enough in camp and they’re extremely high on his future.

:,(

No draymond tonight is really lame

do they really still need to roll Marv Albert out there?

Yah the audio is so bad on this. They figured it out in the bubble but this may be even harder.

nets and warriors are both playing extremely fast, not sure i love it

the str3ams site i used all last season seems to be gone now

nevermind i found the new one

kd looking pretty good!

the court looks likes its covered in grime with this color scheme

nets and warriors are both playing extremely fast, not sure i love it

Kd looks sharp kyrie looks sharp

i dont think id enjoy a league where every team played like this first quarter tbh

warriors defense is a turnstile

They are missing draymond baaadddd and starting wiseman was prob not the right move

But they just handed the nets like 8 points with some really dumb turnovers

Omg what is Wiggins doing out there he looks like a borderline high school player

his minutes have been AWFUL lol

steph is gonna have some of the most drastic on/off numbers in the league

did they make him promise to play like a pro

This Wiggins quarter may go down as one of the worst of all time my goodness

wiggins is not a good nba player, the warriors need to find a taker

They’ll have to include that minny pick obv

wiseman has no idea what to do out there but athletically he looks pretty special... looked pretty good dribbling in the open court too before careening into KD and getting called for a charge

Oubre and Wiggins combined like 2/20 smh

i don’t think they’ll give up that minny pick just to get off wiggins unless it’s also getting them an all star level player

wiseman looks absolutely huge and athletic obvs has no idea how to play yet but he does look like a baller

Hello Demar DeRozan

Xpost
(But I don’t want wiggins on the spurs- not with three years left on that contract!)

wiseman’s FT stroke looks good... curious how he plans on scoring during the normal flow of the game aside from rim running

I hate this

Chris and Marv in garbage time ugh

ive turned it off

the warriors look bad, but im trying not to overreact to one game. they def need oubre and wiggins to be real players and dray back asap.

they would def be a lock for the playoffs in the east

I'm not sure - but they ain't sniffing the playoffs in the west

i think they can make it in the west

the bottom end of the west offs has actually turned in to a big ol question mark

just watched the first half and first chunk of the 3rd before giving up and going live--

- i never really had a reason to scrutinize wiggins and mostly trusted what people tended to say about him, but watching him closely for a half and i totally get it. it isn't organizational, he's never changing. this is what he is. you don't suddenly learn how not to get backdoored by joe harris in year 6 or whatever it is.

- hugely impressed by wiseman's athleticism. such a fluid/fast runner. he'll figure it out but it's going to take some time.

- the warriors have had opportunities on offense but look really bad finishing as a team. that's not encouraging against a nets team that is not the most physical or imposing.

- the nets look pretty good. i enjoyed levert's 2nd unit minutes. withholding more judgement because to me this game is mostly the warriors not really playing competitive basketball.

Wiggins oubre and paschall all shot like zero percent and the whole team is brand new more or less. Gonna Give them like 15 games before I make any serious declarations. On the other hand the nets are flying on positive vibes and they look great. If kd is back for real then that’s so encouraging for Achilles tear sufferers going forward.

Yah cad otm. As bad as Wiggins was this is the worst I’ve ever seen him so it obv shouldn’t be this bad. Oubres energy was there but the shots weren’t falling for anyone in the first half.

there were a few plays where i was like wow kd moved extremely well on that play, he looked like himself, but we didnt get to see him for instance really lock in on D and have to jibberjab his feet all over and what not

Loving the early returns on wiseman he seems fun. The only way the warriors will really win is to rely on the curry dray pnr way more than in past years. And wig and oubre have to shoot league average at least from 3.
