Regular Degular Redux - 2019-20 NBA Season thread 2

A Modest Proposal: put every player for every team in the league on one court, last man standing with the ball wins the NBA Finals. Not his team, just him.

LIST OF NBA CHAMPIONS
2015 - Golden State Warriors
2016 - Cleveland Cavaliers
2017 - Golden State Warriors
2018 - Golden State Warriors
2019 - Toronto Raptors
2020 - Boban Marjanović

xp the great indoor fight?

heh, yes: Onstad for Commissioner

Windhorst is bad at his job

“I'll tell you one thing: that scenario gets Zion Williamson in," added Windhorst. "Look, I've just heard... I'm not saying the NBA is going this route, I'm just saying I've already heard this scenario that no matter what happens, the cutoff line will be the Pelicans. They'll be in. It will be the first time in the history of the NBA that the league kicked the ball into the fairway for New Orleans."

"Other than vetoing the CP3 to the Lakers' trade," replied Tim MacMahon.

Is Boban Marjanovic the greatest 9th man of all time?

btw i listened to that windhorst thing yesterday and from what i could tell he was relaying what other teams in the league were theorizing, not saying the nba was actually going to rig it for zion

yes, that is what he was saying.

restart scenario reporting is slowly killing me; i hate it but i can't stop consuming it.

its all we've got

its perfect i love it the ultimate nba story

BREAKING – NBA commissioner Adam Silver has informed the Board of Governors that July 31 is a target date for the return of the #NBA season. 🔜🏀

So like ... are all four sports going to happen simultaneously?

all on the same field

If the NBA ultimately goes this route … it would increase the number of teams invited to Orlando from 20 to 22 and add Washington and Phoenix to Portland, New Orleans, Sacramento and San Antonio https://t.co/mNnpx2bosS

idgi, where's the part where the dubs get to be first seed?

Boycott the nba playoffs if no dubs

they shd let steph n dray sit in w one of the bubble teams

they should have won more than 15 games if they wanted to play in the offs

its true thats how u get in

Seriously though, are we really going to do this without healthy Steph and Klay? At least put Klay on the sideline beat.

Bundesliga has restarted season in empty stadiums. Without home fans, the home team has gone won just 5 of 27 matches. The NBA should take heed and make sure higher-seeded teams get homecourt edge replenished. Solution: Pick-Your-Opponent: https://t.co/ZFlpSwi7BM

RIP Wes Unseld

Was watching some Unseld games a few months ago and he really did make a great outlet pass every time. What rodman was to rebounding that guy was to outlet passes.

https://www.baltimoresun.com/obituaries/bs-sp-obit-unseld-20200602-jstnpaijrjhapgere3hnnf7p3i-story.html

didn't know he was only 6'6". appeared huge on the court.

just looked and the last knicks coach to get another head coaching job was diantoni 7 years and 7 coaches ago, before that the last knicks coach to get another job was.......jeff van gundy! 14 coaches and 19 years go loool

Part of it is they overpay coaches who can then just retire right

Boogie Cousins waited for three years, but he got his revenge.

ESPN story on the NBA's plan for a return: https://t.co/z90vvFqob6

amazing work by boogie

I'm not saying the Wizards should tank, but...

They have eight games remaining, all against better teams. If they go 0-8, they'd jump from No. 9 seed to No. 7 seed in lottery. That's difference between 6% and 15% chance of top-three pick.

Such a screwed-up incentive structure.

cold blooded assassination lmao

If you don’t like that you’re not calling NBA basketball
