2019 nba OFFSEASON news, rumors, drama, and recriminations

better hope one of their main dudes isn’t hurt for the offs, anyway a lot of people are saying it’s the nuggets year

I think I saw a crawl that said Kyrie had a "facial fracture".

It could be the year for 7 teams tbf. None of the good teams can afford a starter injury really (warriors already two starters injured, pg is out for at least the first ten games, and now brow for a month it sounds like)

Source tells me Lakers are worried Davis thumb injury is similar to Drew Brees. Surgery would cost him about a month. Chris Paul has similar injury.

what if the lakers are bad without brow and they miss the offs :)))

the roster outside their two perennial mvp candidates is if i may speak frankly not great

i forgot already they have boogie AND dwight this is gonna be fun

they should sign kobe jus throwin it out there

Lakers without brow are about even with lebrons team last year.

well worse prob, that team was a playoff bunched up at second in the west before all the injuries, this team w/o brow wld be skunked imo

it would just be AWFUL if lebron missed the offs again

wld be weird if he had to pay his karmic debt to society

another #UMSbomb....was standing in line to get a flu shot at the Walgreens close to Target Center, dude front the team picking up Kieta Bates Diop's Chantix prescription

Let me clear up the confusion. I do not believe there was any consideration for the consequences and ramifications of the tweet. I’m not discussing the substance. Others can talk About that.

I think the nuggz may have to start MPJ at the 3 even if he can’t guard the position. That jumper just looks too good

Feels like Porzingis is absolutely going to tear his ACL again. Some pretty severe knee valgus going on even after rehab. pic.twitter.com/7O5QkT65dh

he and KAT both

i don't know what valgus is but i can tell its bad from the word

tendency to be knock-kneed

Maravich was pretty knock-kneed, always wondered if his catastrophic knee injury was related to that

I kind of love the Pacers (?)

i'm playing fantasy basketball for the first time in like a decade. do we have a thread for advice? Lonzo or Derrick White as my back up PG?

someone make an ILX league!

i think White is better in a roto league...Lonzo has better counting stats but terrible percentages, White is more efficient

yeah i guess i know what i'm getting with White, but Lonzo's still intriguing

Take Lonzo and punt FG%

Honestly lonzo’s percentages shouldn’t be a huge issue because his attempts will be low

Looks like White will get less minutes this season with Murray back

yeah lonzo could have a big year too...still, 437 career percentage from the line. he's better in a points league or head-to-head
