NBA Thread 2019-20 Season

[MikeSU02]

Danny Green 1/6 FGs, 0/4 threes, 2 fouls.

When he's bad, it's really bad.

 

[Orangezoo]

Melo's been blown by twice. He's holding his own on the O end tho.

In fairness the first one was Danny Green with a running start. He did well to force his man right into the help before that.

LA is awful guarding cutters so far. Melo making some good contributions with a couple of assists already too.

 

[MikeSU02]

Dame is getting close to Steph in '15 fun-to-watch level.

 

[Orangezoo]

Portland looks like the 1 seed and LA the 8 in this game so far.

 

[Orangezoo]

Anthony Davis needs to slim down some. He looks like he is Brons age.

 

[OrangeDW]

I’m kinda irritated that everyone just decided Danny Green was better than Carmelo a couple years ago.

Id rather have Melo.

 

[OrangeDW]

Trent kinda sucks, lol. That was horrific.

 

[NineOneSeven]

36 points for Portland so far. Lakers need to score against this blazers’ D.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Trent kinda sucks, lol. That was horrific.

He’s had a good year. Clearly more of a catch and shooter.

 

[Orangezoo]

Trent kinda sucks, lol. That was horrific.

When he is spotting up he is good. Handling the ball and making decisions it's an adventure.

 

[Orangezoo]

36 points for Portland so far. Lakers need to score against this blazers’ D.

It seems their focus is to win with layups and to shoot 80 free throws. That ain't gonna cut it.

 

[Orangezoo]

Was Hezonja good this year?? He has really been bad since I've seen them in the bubble.

 

[Alsacs]

So you want reporters 6 feet apart and wearing a mask during these coaches interview? How the bleep can you expect the coach to hear the questions.

These coach interviews are just dumb.

put Dion in. Too many non scorers on the court.

 

[Orangezoo]

I have no idea if Portland wins this series as it's a long way to go but I can't see the Lakers winning the title. They look like they have this whole time in the bubble.

 

[NineOneSeven]

That wasn’t overturned ?

 

[jordville]

Random memory...So there’s a Warren G song (I don’t remember which one and I probably last heard it like 20 years ago) where he rhymes Long Beach, California with Corona. And Warren and Snoop were best friends, so...I can subconsciously associate Snoop with Corona and accept this. This is how my mind works sometimes. Carry on...

That rings a bell but can't place it either. Did you come up with the song title?
Obviously not Regulate. Only one I still hear from time to time.
Off the top of my head.. I haven't heard these in years... This DJ, Do You See, I Want It All, Lookin At You, I Shot The Sheriff

Ha. Pretty sure it was off the “I Want It All“ album.

Portland is going to take a lot out of them. I think this goes 7.

Got it! Googled those lyrics. It’s “My Momma” off the I Want It All album. That album got heavy play from me in fall ‘99.

Only the Clippers have the personnel to beat the Lakers in the West.
LeBron and Davis too dominant for anyone but Kawhi and George to be favored over in the west.
Toronto and Milwaukee can beat the Lakers as well.

 

[Alsacs]

Now ask C-Webb about 2002 game 6 TNT announcer?

 

[Arangeman]

Dear lord NBA

It's not about who has the personnel it is more about execution by the Lakers. They have been lazy slow and unimpressive in the Bubble. If they get things going I agree. Just are not playing well is my point. I have yet to see the team that looked the clear favorite pre Covid

 

[OrangeDW]

KCP and Caruso in there together are redundant. They both play D but can’t score. Put Dion in.
