Official Around the NBA October/November 2016

Maybe gutting your bench to get a superstar isn't all it's cracked up to be?

 

[Chris Craig]

We may hear the first Co-MVP chants in league history.

BNM

I don't think Curry will like that. Thompson who is fading into obscurity will like it less. Not to mention Green and all the attention he needs. He's gonna be kicking people in the balls all season just to get noticed...the implosion begins

Did you buy a case of popcorn for the season like me? Should be almost as fun to watch as the Blazers. lol

Hmm I watched last night on my lap top and I was able to enlarge it to the full size. I saw no header.....
It did freeze up on me a couple of times and I had to exit and re-enter.

I was on my laptop last night and was also able to enlarge it to the full size. I didn't watch basketball however. I also saw no header, unfortunately. It also froze up on me where I had to exit and re-enter many times in a row.

I'm curious as to what some of the other currently active home opener win streaks are, but I'm having trouble finding that data.

Decided to go through manually to find currently active home opener streaks.

As of last night these are the teams with currently active Home opener win streaks. I was surprised to see how many teams lost their home opener last year.


POR - 16
MIA - 8
OKC - 7
SAS - 7
LAC - 4
TOR - 3
BOS - 2
CLE - 2
CHI - 1
DET - 1

 

[PDXFonz]

Here are this seasons home openers for those with streaks on the line.

Boston has BKN tonight.
Chicago has Boston on their second night of a b2b tomorrow.
Detroit has Orlando on Friday (1 day rest).
Clippers have Utah on Sunday (2 days rest).
Miami has Charlotte on Friday (1 day rest).
Thunder have Phoenix on Friday (1 day rest).
Spurs have New Orleans on their second night of a b2b on Saturday (1 day rest).
Toronto has Detroit tonight.

 

[KingSpeed]

Sabonis starting for OKC, Sergio/Henderson starting for Sixers. This is gonna be fun!

 

[KingSpeed]

Sergio alley oop to Hendo!!!

 

[KingSpeed]

Hendo for 3!!!!

 

[KingSpeed]

Sixers crowd going nuts! They're gonna be a great team this year.

 

[KingSpeed]

Lol at Sixers fan flipping off RW with both hands.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Sergio still one of the worst defenders ever.

BNM

 

[Darkwebs]

Didn't know Embiid has 3 point range

 

[Driew]

Sergio looks much more relaxed out there.

 

[PDXFonz]

Sixers crowd going nuts! They're gonna be a great team this year.

Great teams make it out of the first round of the playoffs. The Sixers wont even make the playoffs. They will be an okay team this year - Meaning they wont challenge the league record for consecutive losses again.

 

[KingSpeed]

Harrison Fucking Barnes just hit a 3 to force OT

 

[KingSpeed]

Great teams make it out of the first round of the playoffs. The Sixers wont even make the playoffs. They will be an okay team this year - Meaning they wont challenge the league record for consecutive losses again.

I don't know. Their roster is MUCH improved. When Ben Simmons comes back...

 

[KingSpeed]

Myles Turner playing like All Star

 

[KingSpeed]

DeRozen now leading the league in scoring

 

[KingSpeed]

AD ties him with 40 and counting

 

[KingSpeed]

We got the wrong Turner.

Myles Turner 30 pts 16 rbs 1 ast 2 stls 4 blks

And he's 20 years old.

Indiana is for real.

 

[julius]

We got the wrong Turner.

Myles Turner 30 pts 16 rbs 1 ast 2 stls 4 blks

And he's 20 years old.

Indiana is for real.

Is he going to be your target this year? Or are you going to forget this the second he has a good game?

 

[PDXFonz]

DeRozen now leading the league in scoring

*Anthony Davis

 

[PDXFonz]

So I'm trying the free trial of NBA league pass for my laptop.... It is complete, utter trash. The video player is too small, and the header wont go away so it blocks even the small video player.

I don't watch games on cell phones. Never will.

I can't even log into NBA.com or the NBA app!

Sitting and waiting to chat with a technician for like 15 minutes.

 

[julius]

*Anthony Davis

he could EASILY get a 5x5 tonight. 2 blocks and 1 assist and he'd have it.

 

[PDXFonz]

Lol at Sixers fan flipping off RW with both hands.

LOL

 

[julius]

That is funny on many levels.

 

[Pinwheel1]

We got the wrong Turner.

Myles Turner 30 pts 16 rbs 1 ast 2 stls 4 blks

And he's 20 years old.

Indiana is for real.

They almost gave that game away. The last few minutes of regulation they totally forgot about Paul George. Not sure how that is possible.
Wes Mathews looked like shit tonight

 

[PDXFonz]

Sergio would have brought the roof down if he made that three.
