What happens to the Lakers when AD and/or Lebron miss games?
 
It's looking more and more like the EC finals between the Cavs and the Bucks are going to be the real finals...
 
Lakers continue to lose like the overpaid has-beens they are
 
That's some good body language by Edwards! Am sure all is well in Minnesota.

I kind of wonder if he was a target of ours with the 36th pick. We traded it shortly after.

Would not surprise me. Even as a rookie he is an amazing defensive anchor. Toronto line-ups that have him as their center with 3 large forwards and FVV - are great defensive units.

Mitchell has not proven himself in the playoffs. Boston is still the favorite I think. Atlanta gonna be tough too with that backcourt.

That was freakin hilarious.

He's blaming his lack of dunks this year due to clogged interior caused by his own teammates

You're another one of these Christian Wood deniers. This kind of behavior can be really dangerous.

Nah, you aren't getting a forum joke about Christian Wood and myself.

I know you've pretended to not know who he is since the Rockets flipped one of the picks and Ariza for him after the RoCo trade. Is there a back story between you and Wood?
 
Some early season anomalies:

The Suns and Bucks have both only played 2 road games.
The Lakers have played only 3 road games.
The Warriors are O-fer on the road

The Grizz and Jazz are both 4-0 at home and 3-3 on the road (and average 117 ppg).

Norman Powell and RoCo both are sucking ass.
CJ is shooting below his career averages so far (which to me, is surprising).

Yeah, we won that trade going away.
 
Big day in the NBA tomorrow. All three teams above us play. If they lose and we win, we're #1 again.

I have the guy blocked, but I'm assuming you're talking to THE HCP. PER wise, in limited minutes, Wood was like Top 10 a few seasons ago and everybody who knows basketball knew who he was. When someone brought him up as a target for the Blazers or other teams, THE HCP proudly stated that he had no idea who the guy was.

*Attacks on knowledge deleted*

He continues to say he doesn't know who the guy is but he is saying there is a personal reason he won't acknowledge Wood's existence. @THE HCP knew who Christian Wood was when Houston traded for him and he knows who the guy is today but he won't say why he won't acknowledge it.

@KSF-ERIC if you think you know more about ball than @THE HCP does you're entitled to your opinion on that but when you start saying some childish shit like the guy knows absolutely nothing about the game... you're showing that you either just let feelings blind you to facts or you're a troll. Either way it's a bad look.

He’s definitely just trolling him at this point and it’s kind of lame.
I’ve got like one person blocked on here and don’t really bring it up.

If you block someone, ignore them… Don’t constantly post about how you have them blocked while trashing them. It’s fairly classless.
 
The Bucks are doing this without Khris Middleton and that is not me in any way trying to diminish what Middleton brings to the table. When he gets back and it looks like it will be soon, they will be even better. I'm not saying they're not going to lose this season, I'm saying that they have been the best team in the league without Middleton and they will be better once they have him back.

I realize that we haven't truly lost a game with Dame playing because we were only seven points back when he was injured and he was subbed out after the next Miami score with us still only down 9 with 17 minutes of game time left to play. I think we are a good team that can compete with any team in the league... I think the Bucks are on another level right now and will take it to an even higher level when Middleton returns.

I don't have anyone blocked on here but due to the aggravation that @KSF-ERIC is causing me because he does believe he's a better Blazers fan than the rest of us, he is delusional about some things and then he mixes in trolling... it's really very hard to understand if you're getting realistic Eric (who might not exist), overly homer Eric or when he's misrepresenting his opinions completely. It just makes things really a lot less fun. I'm waiting to see if he will just go back to being the homer he really is and leave the trolling out of it because that's just fine with me but this constant mix up and not knowing if I'm reading and then addressing something he legitimately thinks is getting really fucking old.
