2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

this isn't fact-checked but it sounds reasonable

"Burdel na kółkach" (brothel on wheels) is a Polish phrase describing a crazy, out of control situation.

lowe's predictions

indy missing the playoffs is the only thing in there wild enough that i haven't considered it

with the news today that klay is prob out for the whole season now i could see the warriors measuring the first 25 games and if the results arent great (or if dray/curry get slightly banged up)... tanking

They've been tanking since the moment the season ended imo

i hope they dont :(

If they finish with a top-ten record they lose their first rounder to Brooklyn.

The only way I could see them tanking is if Steph has a minor injury that they stretch to 40 games a la DRob

i'm sure every game is already pre-sold out but no team moving into a new arena has ever wanted to tank

the warriors will 100% believe that they can beat any team in a 7 game series and therefore just need to get into the playoffs, and teams like 6-13 in the west will be so tightly bunched that there's no way they'll tank

prediction: clips will be champs and steph-harden will be 1-2 in scoring or 2-1, philly will trade one of their many centers, celtics will trade for a center

celtics should trade for... al horford

i know right

still kinda want the celtics to be the steven adams team

best time of the year to be a knicks fan, savor it while you can

are the rumors true has basketball returned

Pels have a lot of good players

These guys gotta be so happy to be playing for Gentry

An actual buck in chris Paul’s garage? Allstate has signed up for some random....

How are the raptors fans booing this call

this pels team is kinda fun

If you just listen to Marv Albert’s commentary you hear a very different game

“Nicole Mell”

What a thrill to see the ‘19 banner being unveiled. :’)

I guess I don't understand why ppl are so high on houston and the jazz

I guess I picked the jazz to place third lol

so many guesses

the jazz should be a really good regular season team, but i don't see them having a much higher playoff ceiling

Yeah kev I thought you were high on them xp

Omg Lonzo. What a cool player

this team and coach is such a good fit for him

Kind of painful how perfectly constructed they seem to be for Zion but hopefully just 2 months away

Terence Davis looks like he’s making all-defense teams

Looking at the East I wouldn’t be surprised if Raps made the finals again, it would take some luck and perhaps a trade, but really it’s not so impossible.

Which is more to say the East is weak.

i judge championship rings based on overall ridiculousness and this is a really good one
