The Official NBA Week 1 & 2 thread - Chauncey's here, place your bets

God we have been trash the previous couple of games but this has been worse.

Just not clicking or firing a shot at all.

 

[Borough Blood]

Boston Philly an absolute mess at the end.

I don't think I've seen us play like this for 10 years

I'm sure it will come crashing down

You better put some respect on Luc Longley's name or there'll be trouble.

Have a look at the streaming quality of Amazon compared to Kayo. Worlds apart.

Giddey up, 5-0 just watched the replay. From 501 into 126 overnight to take out the Championship..

New Orleans look a mile off. Given this is a team who do not own their first round pick this season, this season should have been a win at all costs situation. RIght now they are 0-5 and look a mile off it.

Worrying signs

Paolo heard the criticism and has been absolutely cooking ever since lol

 

[srobbo]

Warriors surely couldn’t lose this against a Giannis less Bucks side.

And now looking down the barrel against a pacers b team who got blown out by Atlanta last night. Just can’t win on the road.

Too much class with Curry and Butler to lose this. God it’s sad watching Horford and Draymond moving on the court. Looking very slow.

20-5 Pacers run to close out the win. Dubs are a putrid road team & inexcusable to drop that. Stef prob had to get others into the game on a bad shooting night & only 2 dimes.

To think Draymond said no one in the east could win it but the Clippers and Warriors could.

Dray still living in the past. Dubs/Clips will be lucky to get past 1st round of playoffs. OKC, Denver, Houston, Spurs, Wolves, Lakers & I think even Dallas if AD, Kyrie are healthy at the business end are all ahead of them.

Should never have traded that pick to begin with.

Also should have fired Willie Green. When your forte is allegedly man management, getting blown out without giving a yelp should set alarm bells ringing.

Don't shoot your load too soon. Warriors had the 4th best road record last year.

Blaming anyone but Steph for this loss would be the wrong answer.

I love Steph as much as the next neutral fan but he wasn’t great in that last stanza & you’re only as good as your recent form & Dubs road form early on is a worry.

OKC being 6-0 with no Chet, Dort or J-Will is sad for us all

Keep in mind Houston took them to double OT, same as the Pacers. They have beaten Dallas who have been extremely hit and miss so far and the other wins were against Wizards, Kings and Pelicans who at present are all struggling.

No doubt they are the best side for a reason but it is not as doom and gloom as you just have painted it.

There so many positives so far this season for teams that may have been mid table or there abouts this season so far, You can't deny the form of Luka and Reeves to start, Spurs have started hot and if Wemby stays fit or especially fit come the end of the season look out.

Week 3 here

NBA Week 3 Thread - DX Crotch Drops and similar lewd actions (not) welcome!

News just in. Joel Embiid has been fined US$50,000 for a WWE style crotch drop celebration. In "who injured now?" we got Trey Young out for 4 weeks (sprained MCL), Ayton a probable. Why are there so many injuries this season? Or has it always been this way? I think not. 8 games round off...
