2017-18 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD PART 1 ALL OF AMERICAS FAVORITE TEAMS ARE BACK

For sure he’s a negative if he’s not balling out on offense

and then the rest of the cavs backcourt is also very bad defensively!

look cavs aren’t losing to the wizards or raptors lol

jr smith is a solid defender, wade could conceivably lock in for stretches in the offs

the cavs can lose to the raptors and maybe even wizards sometimes the wheels just fall off, and it always looks obvious in retrospect

like an old ass no defense team playing bron huge minutes and winning off some unexpected bounce back seasons, yeaaah

maybe theyll lose to the bucks who knows!

lots of things would prob have to go wrong for the wizards to give the cavs a real run in a 7 game series

raptors look amazing this year (quietly) and I know we’re supposed to not believe in the choking in the playoffs idea as being a real thing but...I still am discounting them like 50% in my brain

thats fair i personally believe in the raptors choking but i also think they cld overcome it and it seems like theyve take some steps in addressing their style of play problems

how many times did kyrie dunk off a backdoor cut in cleveland zero prob

kyrie wasn’t exactly a... positive on defense for the cavs last year & they made it thru ok

“who guards kyrie” is not exactly a problem any team in the league can solve anyway

kyrie and IT arent really comparable defenders

not sure how the celtics got out of that half only down by 2 they looked baad

omg kyrie

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich was asked why he thinks it’s important to give back to the community: “Because we’re rich as hell and we don’t need it all, and other people need it. Then, you’re an a-- if you don’t give it. Pretty simple.”

some #coolfacts about the suns game winning play from the coach:

“I was trying to create a play where you could score with like three-tenths of a second or something, and I just thought tonight was a good time to do it,” Triano told reporters after the game. “I put it on about two or three days after I took over the job here, and it’s a rule a lot of people don’t know. You cannot goaltend a ball that isn’t going to count, so I told our guys, ‘Shoot the ball in the basket, and all Tyson has to do is touch it on the way down or grab the rim and have it hit your knuckle and go in.’

“I asked the officials when they come and do their clinics and seminars with the coaches. I asked them that 15 years ago when I was in Toronto. I asked them about it, and they had to go back and look at it. I’ve tried to keep it a secret, and it’s not a secret anymore.”

“I told the one official, ‘You know that you can’t goaltend that,’ ” Triano told the media afterward, via The Arizona Republic. “He was like, ‘I know, I know.’ I think they were probably looking to see if Tyson touched the ball because it’s a violation if it goes straight in and he doesn’t get a piece of it.”
