[NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (OCT/NOV)

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Happy New Year!

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Damn, Jaylen Brown won the Larry Bird trophy and the Bill Russell trophy, and Jayson Tatum still got top billing. Tough scene.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Oh boy, not what the NBA was hoping for out of their first game of the season

 

[hrdboild]

Is it too early to start talking about the curse of Donte DiVincenzo?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I hate this. Big Sawfty and the Knicks are getting punked on national television, and I can't even be happy about it, because of all these god damned threes.

 

[NewArena]

Thank God we aren't playing the Celtics any time soon. That team is full of everything that gives us fits lol

Some quality acting right there.

AI can do that too, lol.

Celtics putting the league on notice.

First team in forever that might be a TRUE dynasty. Not that Dubs nonsense.

 

[Sluggah]

I get that it’s the first game…but Knicks fans gotta be feeling sick right now

 

[Tetsujin]

But really though why is Bridges suddenly shooting like rookie season Markelle Fultz? Dude was a 40% three point shooter so it’s not like his stroke needed fixing.

 

[SacTownKid]

The C's are currently at 61 3's as a team WTF, lol. lol. lol. The game is BROKEN. I feel like Monte might end up being a genius signing DeRozan.

 

[Tetsujin]

lol Randle and KAT both looking terrible in their first games with their new teams.

 

[LoungeLizard]

I guess I’m just used to the Kings owning the Lakers the last few seasons so I’m always surprised when quality teams like Minnesota struggle against them.

Bronny and Bron checking in together up 16 with 4 minutes left in the half….lets see how this goes

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Here comes the photo op.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Dalton is pinker than Pepto Bismol

 

[iowamcnabb]

Lakers having a 12 point leas while shooting 17 percent from 3 is wild

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Gotta say, that lasted about two minutes longer than I thought it would.

 

[Tetsujin]

The TWolves really missing KAT’s spacing/being so afraid of seizing the moment that he was perfectly content to stay completely out of Ant’s way.

 

[LoungeLizard]

Knicks and Celtics fans coming together for a fierce “Lakers Suck” chant leading into the halftime show bringing tears to my eyes.

Kings going to get a pissed off T Pups team

 

[iowamcnabb]

Lakers will be good if that’s the version of AD they get.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Lakers will be good if that’s the version of AD they get.

Is there any way they don't get Day-to-Davis? I'll give him this, he'll probably play more games than Ben Simmons.

First team in forever that might be a TRUE dynasty. Not that Dubs nonsense.

Nobody is going to lose a game when they shoot 47% from deep and make 29 threes. They hardly bothered getting themselves to the free throw line though nor did they get much of anything from their bench. As dominant a performance as that was, I don't think shooting a bazillion threes is a guaranteed path to continued success.

They're sort of in the same boat we are as a team that relies heavily on their shooting. The difference though is they have two #1 options (which we may have this season if DeRozan continues to be a 24ppg guy) and they have better defenders. We're still looking for our Al Horford / Kristaps Porzingis defensive anchor but our status would be elevated immensely if Keegan Murray makes the same All-NBA leap in his third season that Jayson Tatum did for Boston 5 years ago.

watching the Celtics chuck three after three was nauseating and with the league being a copy cat league, I'm holding out a bit of hope that multiple teams don't try to mimic them when the personnel doesn't match
