NBA Thread 2019-20 Season

[OrangeDW]

Hell yeah I’m stoked for this Clippers-Magic scrimmage on NBATV!

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Btw, I finished the latest season of The Challenge. It was excellent on every level.

Dion! Hits a 3 at the first quarter buzzer. Also had a nice step back mid range jumper earlier. Looks to be in excellent shape!

LeBron should just give the keys to Dion and JR & let them drive the Lakers limo.

Here's what I'm rooting for as the NBA returns:

1) Skinny Melo ripping things up, continuing the climb up the all-time scoring list, earning a contract for the next season or two.

2) A player doing something really, really stupid in the bubble. Bonus points if it involves getting busted with a groupie.

3) LeBron winning a weird championship that further complicates his legacy.

Woj is back as of today...

 

[Briancuse]

I just don't understand why anyone would pay that much money for a card. To each it's own I guess.

Really looking forward to more of these stories.

As my late, great Uncle Fishy would say: “Schmuck.”

I don't think you are going to have to wait long for number 2 to happen. I think this could enhance Lebrons legacy if he got a ring.

Austin Rivers left the bubble due to a family matter. Doc Rivers did not leave the bubble. Austin Rivers is single. Just saying.

Honey, what are you in the mood for tonight? I was thinking Diamond Dolls...

How far is Atlanta from Orlando?

How far is Atlanta from Orlando?

About 7 hours.

They must have really good wings.

Bol Bol -- what a second round steal. I don't understand why some non lotto teams did not take a flyer on him in the first round.

Agreed! Just like Denver took Michael Porter around that point in the first round...I thought someone would do the same with Bol. Now Denver’s got both of them. High ceilings!

During the NBA draft thread last year I was advocating taking him and couldn’t believe he fell out of the first round when that draft is all about potential.

He left for his grandfather's funeral (legit). He then did what most people do after funerals - grab a meal at the strip club.

He looked like a supervillain on draft night.

Scared off a lot of front offices.

Just as pappy wanted.
