[NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (DEC)

[kingsboi]

Did you really think that me asking, "what's the deal with the other three guys?" was me making a legitimate criticism of the three guys who didn't score in double figures? Of course that was a joke.

in my defense, I am talking to Slim here so I didn't really know what route this conversation was heading towards

Touché.

BREAKING: Grizzlies with Morant, still pretty good, too.

Jaren Jackson Jr. is the modern Jason Thompson when it comes to dumb fouls.

Ja returns and the Grizzlies immediately cough one up to the Thunder.

Toronto is calling up Nik Stauskas of @NBAGrandRapids from the @nbagleague, league sources say.

Dejounte continuing his quest for MIP

Sauce Castilo = the gift that keeps on giving. That was a Top 10 day in the history of this message board (just don't ask me to rattle off the other nine, right now).

The Ja Morant thing with Grizzlies fans telling him they are better if he sits out is so weird.

You're a small market and have a young, burgeoning superstar. One who seems happy to be in that city. Definitely makes sense to treat him like crap and make him question being there.

sound familiar?

Bagley for Ja. Make it happen monte. We can’t hate him AND fox at the same time for the same reason right?

Just proves that there are vocal idiots in all fanbases.

Johnson -- a seven-time All-Star -- is 40 years old and hasn't played in the NBA since Houston in 2018. Iso-Joe is back. https://t.co/Zj0Mz3L69J

Derrick Rose underwent successful surgery on his right ankle today at the Hospital for Special Surgery. He will be re-evaluated in eight weeks.

If there ever were a desperate team to trade Fox to that had assets to burn but not necessarily cap room, it would be the Knicks.

is Bron starting a trend here?

Thibs still ruining players by overplaying them, I see...

 

[iowamcnabb]

Max Strus continues his domination in Miami. It would be nice if the Kings could bring an undrafted guy in that can drop 20 plus a game for a stretch.

Ya, but they could potentially get someone as good as Ja in 3 years if they trade him!

 

[iowamcnabb]

How do we trade for Onyeka Okongwu? I really like how he played last post season and he has really great defensive potential. He is listed as a PF and probably won't be able to carve out big minutes moving forward with Collins and Gallinari in the fold. If they like what they see in Johnson, maybe Onyeka would be available? I assume Atlanta is looking to consolidate assets so I am not sure what it would take to get him.

Wonder how happy LeBron is now months after choosing Westbrook. Lmao

 

[SLAB]

I adore Lakers fans on Twitter telling themselves Russell Westbrook for Ben Simmons is going to happen. That’s almost a bigger stretch than us saying Buddy and Bagley.

That's right up there with Boston fans thinking we are trading Fox for Marcus Smart.

Franz dropped 38 against the bucks today. Whodathunkit
