OFFICIAL Around The NBA Thread- December 2020

[PtldPlatypus]

Golden State looks like shit.

Oubre and Wiggins are a pretty poor replacement for Thompson and Durant

 

[Buffalo Custard]

Golden State looks like shit.

The worst part is that some Portland fans will see GSW having a bad game as an excuse for the Blazers to play like shit.

Nope, gotta stop that straw man b.s. in its tracks right there. Name one.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

The Nets are looking like what the Clippers were supposed to be last season: an already-good team that added two stars.

 

[BigGameDamian]

I didn't even know Bazemore went to GSW.

 

[Tince]

Steve Kerr looks a lot better with 3-4 all-stars on his roster.

Probably the same could be said for Steve Nash.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Steve Kerr looks a lot better with 3-4 all-stars on his roster.

Yes that explains how he turned a good Mark Jackson team into a 73-win team.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Braids for Curry? NOT a good look.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Don't know who I'll be rooting against more when the Nets play the Lakers. Of course, if the Nets somehow got Harden that would seal the deal.

 

[JoshuaHall]

Reggie just said Batum can switch 1-5

 

[tlongII]

I didn’t realize Batum was on the Clippers?

 

[stampedehero]

WTF: No Portland!

 

[tlongII]

Always nice to see the Lakers getting their ass kicked!

 

[Tince]

Poor Kerr. Only has 2 all-stars (in their prime), 2 #1 picks in their 20's, and Oubre.... the guy really has nothing to work with anymore.

 

[Hoopguru]

Both Clips and lakers pushing the ball up court.

 

[twobullz]

Season hasn't even started and Love is already out injured.

 

[DDolla]

What’s with Chuck always picking the Blazers to win it lol

 

[blazerkor]

What’s with Chuck always picking the Blazers to win it lol

He didn't like the team for so long even though he loves Dame because he kept saying we couldn't get any inside points with LaMarcus always settling for fade-aways. Once Chuck started liking Nurk and Zach and the presence they give us inside he jumped on the very small outside of Portland, Trail Blazers bandwagon.

 

[blazerkor]

Oh shit!!! I was wrong the Lakers aren't the best team in the league. They lost the first game of the season and that's got to be more indicative of future success than the 4 scrimmages the league called preseason games and since that made most in here go from thinking our team was going to challenge for a top 4 seed to being a fringe playoff team... the Lakers must suck.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Always a good day when at the end of it, the Lakers are in dead last.

 

[DDolla]

Chuck just bet 100k for the Blazers to win the West

 

[tiredhunter]

Well, I'm all for the Blazers earning him more big checks ... but damnit Chuck.

 

[AldoTrapani]

 

[LayneStaley]

Blazers are not a 1 seed but KOC is an idiot and hard to take seriously imo.

 

[THE HCP]

I think the Clips SMASHED the Lakers opening night last season as well.

 

[RR7]

 

[kjironman1]

Not taking anything from this.
He was arrested for pot? Really?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

That's sad.

 

[kjironman1]

That's sad.

What i find sad is that he was even in the position to be arrested. You have to wonder if there is more to this story?
