Dray getting thrown out today

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Sad news. Hopefully KOJ is okay and won't miss too many games.

 

[stewie griffen]

You don't say

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Bastard. Hopefully soon this scumbag is caught and arrested.

Good news is that he has been released from hospital but expected to miss a significant amount of playing town, which is a real pity cause he was performing at almost a career best season so far with the Sixers

Get well Kelly

Wonder if the LA Fakers will ask for an inquest into this one. AD in the key for about 8 seconds lmao

I blame the court colour scheme. Special consideration = all good.

Bill Simmons was right. The Harden trade sunk em.

Harden is a non winner. He is no one’s answer to any question worth asking.

Atlanta have been difficult to get a handle on, for what seems like forever.

How do you blow out the Bucks and Wolves, yet lose to the Hornets and Miami's reserves?

Unlike a lot of teams, they can't blame injuries either.

Young team who cant bring consistent effort night in night out mostly.

Very underwhelmed by Deandre Hunter so far this season as well as Bogdan whose been fairly trashy from the bench too . They strike me as a team who should be all over the Toronto situation trying to get Siakam over, even if that means losing Hunter

The one team we can beat this season is the one team we haven’t been able to beat the last 15 years

Are they that young anymore though?

They do keep bringing in guys at the draft, but their main guys now should all be in their primes. They clobbered us at home when we were at (relatively) full strength. They just run so hot and cold, have for a while.

Spot on.
100%.

Harden is the poor man’s Carmelo Anthony. Scorers but cannot play to a system not want to be second fiddle.
Anthony was the exact same. Jealous of Linsanity.

Harden is a wasted talent. Ah well

Bucks are so disappointing this season. Crap HC, Dame injured and Middleton looks hella washed.

At least Giannis is locked away and we can get trade value when he demands a trade.

Just such a boring team now. I miss the late 10’s, early 20’s Bucks team with Holiday and Bud.

Middleton has always been washed.
His style of play never gets consistency nor far in NBA.

Harden was/is way more of a winner than Melo though, has been to the finals a couple of conference finals.

Unfortunately is also bit of a Diva and tended to sulk and act Petty if things didn't go his say, former coaches Kevin Mchale and
Doc Rivers have alluded to this in recent months (Doc was great value listening to him on the Bill Simmons podcast)

Sometimes I think the Clips should just fire Ty Lue and hire Pringles if they want Harden to work, clearly Harden played his best and most successful hoops under D'Antoni at Houston.

Would only be a rental though (Siakam is out of contract at the end of the season, and probably not going to sign an extension at Atlanta)

Still too early in the season for any team to make any panic trades imk

 

[fidstar]

Giannis shooting F/T's like Shaq so far this season doesn't help either.

Don't like him, but I feel like the Bucks are missing Grayson Allen and the energy he brought to your team.

If Shaq shot free throws as well as Giannis this year (63%), he would have been the GOAT.
