Exclusive Official Around the NBA: November 2022

[THE HCP]

Hearing the Lakers and Pacers are part of this Crowder deal……

 

[OneSport3]

defense is trash. and they're getting 0 help from Poole. laughable that people really thought he was better than Ant.

Could you imagine the takes on here if Ant scored 2 points on 0-5 shooting?

The fact people want a rookie to overtake him before said rookie has to adjust his game when the league figures him out already says enough. LOL.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

It's so damn enjoyable watching Golden State and LA fucking suck lmao

Sacramento may not simply make the playoffs. They have a shot at winning the division! Who would’ve thought that?

There is no “figuring out.” Sharpe is a natural. Scoring comes easy to him.

So, you feel comfortable just insulting everyone who believes Sharpe has a higher ceiling than Simons?

Yeah, it’s all fun and games until the Warriors win the lottery and Wemby prolongs Steph’s career for 10 more years lol.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Curry puts up 50. But they still lose by double digits

Lillard: "Welcome to the club"

From NBA champs to #1 draft pick?

Inconceivable.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Hilarious comment. A team can be trash, but not horrible. I guess the rank of teams in the NBA is

Blazers
Trash
Horrible

Kind of makes "trash" acceptable?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Melo re-injures his ankle??!!
Brutals
First game back and he limps off court, have a great game too. Hopefully it's not serious.

I didn't think anyone signed him? What team?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

...and Draymond wants to get paid lol he destroys team morale assaulting a teammate and looking a bit sluggish out there nowadays, ouch!

That punch was the end of their season seems like?

 

[Cugel]

La not Car

I believe he's talking about Lamelo Ball who's name should never and I mean ABSOLUTELY NEVER be abreviated as "Melo"

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Orlando put out an interesting starting lineup last night: basically 2 PF's, 2 centers and a SG. Didn't work out very well in loss to MN.
C. OkekePF
F. WagnerSF
M. BambaC
B. BolC
J. SuggsSG

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Interesting that New Orleans beat up on Chicago even though no Zion. And Houston beat Dallas, but Dallas without Doncic.

Bol Bol has played well this year. Has guard skills too.

So there are two people called Melo now? Melo is in the top 10 all time scoring in the history of the game. Do we now show that no respect whatsoever?

I always talk about what an all time great all star player Jordan was. Of course a first name is not needed; everyone knows I'm talking about the lumpering stiff former Clipper.

 

[Cugel]

I can't believe I am in trouble because I failed to kneel at the throne of Carmelo Anthony. As members of an nba forum you should have known it was Ball's first game back after an ankle injury and that's who I was referring to. Shall I delete the post?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Garland vs. Kyrie vs. Ja for Least Valuable Player:

Add Zion to the LVP coversation.

 

[HansenYang]

Grant should be priority. Winslow I think won’t be in the market for a ton of money. He’s kind of a system guy.

I'm guessing that all 3 would be easy to re-sign for market rates. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that they even provide a 'home team' discount.

Please move this to the Melo Thread.

you said Melo. Around here, and probably in every NBA forum, that means one player, and that's not Lamelo Ball. I thought you were talking about Melo, the one that played for Portland

you don't have to bow down to carmelo, but you might want to adjust your confusing shorthand

 

[DDolla]

Watch the Warriors trade for KD… I’m just sayin

Especially when the one and only Melo fits the context of the "first game back" post, with people wondering if he would be picked up by anyone this year.

No. I’m good. I made my point but honestly I had no idea Ball#2 was hurt?

 

[Haakzilla]

Never confuse El Melo with LaMela ever again!
