Solid pun!

Yep solid pun, if not totally accurate.

Giddey has played for the national team, thus he’s a Boomer, but he’s not an Olympian. He was the last player cut, which annoyed me greatly.
 
has any other NBA player over the last decade been trashed as much by fans as Westbrook?
 
I just checked, this is Ricky Rubio's 11th season. Obviously, the Gasol brothers have had long careers. But other than them and Jose Calderon, have any other Spanish players played as long as Rubio?
 
The Warriors are 7-1, best record in the NBA. Also have the best defense in the NBA. To think there were people on here who doubted that Steve Kerr was a top tier coach when his roster was decimated with injuries.

Why won't he just freakin rehab it and get it addressed? Trying to play through it is insanely stupid.

Reminds me of Brandon Roy. He kept forcing his way to play through pain and knee injuries, until he had to retire in his mid 20's.

I think more than ever this preseason and early season, guys on here are just TEARING into the Lakers….yet being SO patient with our roster. Talking about it’s early, give it time, let them build chemistry. That’s all, I like consistency when I’m reading peoples critiques is all. You’ve seen me say I’m giving the Blazers 30 games before I really judge, said the exact same thing about the Lakers when they won 3 in a row last week.

The difference is the Blazers were projected to be a between a playoff and playin team and the Lakers were anointed by the media and national analysts to be title contending west favorites.
 
No one in here knows that Dame's abdominal issue is what is causing this slump... so your opinions on him definitely needing rest are baseless.

But everyone here said the experts were wrong and the Lakers were old and overrated.

Just wondering what the Blazer fans who have come on here trashing other teams think of our Blazers. Put’s in in context is all. Not sure where this came from, shit, there are 20 teams that suck right now. Just wondering about the levels. If they are “trash”, what are we?

The Lakers are the Trump of NBA teams.

Because they are old and overrated. LeBron, Melo, Rondo, DHo = old. AD and RW= overrated.

And you already told everybody we would finish ahead of them in the standings, so you REALLY got nothing to worry about. Not tomorrow night, not at all right?

And yet most people here thought the Lakers would be top three in the West and that the Blazers would be bottom half of the playoff teams. And I believe most people still think that, so this argument is getting tedious. But if you want to set up to crow later, why not start a poll to nail down people's opinions?
 
Damn, everyone has a ring except Dame. He really deserve one, hope he got traded to a contender like Clyde
