2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

They somehow got Curry on that bargain deal too

i kinda like dorel wright too. solid player nothing crazy tho

ayton returns tonight. suns are reeling and they need a big win, tonight vs clips would be huge

Actually kind of intrigued to see if the suspension motivates Ayton

he started the season strong wonder if that was just the juice.

see also: john collins (who returns next week)

Yet what that also means is Jrue Holiday is indeed available via trade, league sources say. It would surely cost a significant amount to pry him away from the Pels, but this is a notable change in status given how unavailable Holiday was to interested teams last season

Kind of unbelievable how bad Atlanta’s defense is

dunk battle

Kelly Oubre on Paul George
Kelly Oubre stares him down
PG gets him back

I really like oubre’s whole presence

Brutal first half by ayton there oof

Coming out on the other end now tho

i agree about oubre he has excellent vibes

super rough year for mike conley

hes been weirdly bad

Knicks do seem completely different with Mike Miller as coach. Elf Payton making a difference too

Bertans SZN

the heat are kicking the shit out of the sixers in philadelphia

but that's ok, and here's why...

lol no kidding

i posited earlier that the heat could be better than the sixers but i think it's too close to call

great game hope they play in the playoffs

This felt like a game where Embiid would be worn out. Had his knee wrapped pre-game

Lag♾n was right, jokic was just taking the first 20 games off

i feel like he's done that before, i wasn't really worried

its a long season

zinger mb starting to find some form too

For the first time in his career, Kristaps Porzingis has three straight 20-10 games.

Definitely got the feeling with Zinger that a lot of stuff he was doing was just stuff that didn’t get enough reps while he was injured. Like eventually those post turnarounds are gonna go in

he’s got a .511 ts% in december. he’s still bad at offense imo

Yeah it’s just 4 games

he has individual possessions where he looks so sick, like super quick drives right past guys for dunks.

It would be really bizarre if he was a competent 3 point shooter with that first step and doesn’t figure it out. The only comparison would be Bargnani but bargnani was out of shape and had zero effort.

Bucks really dominating behind this uh George Hill performance

wolves have lost 8 in a row. okc is in 7th place with a losing record

These attempts by the lakers to get the fifth Giannis foul are kind of pathetic

yeah bottom of the west and bottom of the east are right in line

Reggie Miller thinks Dr. J is an 80s player

I think he also just said this game is a passing of the guard or changing of the torch

we all crowned the hornets the worst team in the league before the season and they're outplaying a dozen teams so far

xp makes sense if you think about it

i guess they're 26th in SRS but still

i'm still not sure how the hornets are doing it (though i've always kind of liked their coach) but nobody saw the devonte graham thing coming.

kudos to hornets imo

theyll prob fall off but theyre def not the worst team

yeah, they play hard and they're willing to try stuff with lineups.

basically if u play hard youre not gonna be the worst team, and then if you got a couple guys who are better then people thought well

does devonte' graham actually have an apostrophe at the end of his name like that

it's how its listed in all the stats sites and wikipedia

i guess it must be true then

wild lol

How do you guys feel about the nickname Instagraham. He puts up points in a hurry
