The NBA Week 8 Thread

To who? No one is going to dump picks and take on his contract

I'll take him, Trae + Rizz + Pels 1st

There were very much in protection mode yesterday, way less than optimal levels of arousal required for a match.

Pels scored 121 on the second half of a road back to back with 70% of our salary cap sitting in street clothes.

Should have come to us for advice!

 

[Gak Attack]

Some bad losses today. I think we should sit KD on any future b2b. He dug a hole we couldnt escape.

 

[kingkingston]

Just the 6th time in LeBron's career that he didn't get at least 1 rebound today. He kept his 10 point scoring streak going in the blowout loss though. Is he finally showing his age or just taking it easy?

He had a big 4th quarter

What is the correct level of arousal for a match. Half mast?

With the two white guys going well, it looks like he's cruising to an extent.

 

[Deliverance]

Won't be long before Giannis asks for a trade....

That'd be the end of Thanassis' career.

 

[Gak Attack]

Nah im sure signing him is part of the deal

At least 3 levels below poking an opponents eye out on a poster dunk

He is a top 3 player in the world, absolutely teams will.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Giannis wipes all mentions of Bucks from social media and updates his description to now say NBA Athlete. Seems he is unhappy with lack of work ethic from his teammates foremost

I feel like San Antonio may pull the trigger with Dylan Harper the cornerstone of any deal.

Harper + Johnson + Olynyk + Sochan + 3 first rounders for Giannis, Anthony and Thanasis

Looks okay to me. Maybe Spurs add another 1st? Spurs going with

Fox
Castle
Barnes
Giannis
Wemby

Vassell, Kornet, Champagnie, Anthony

Looks ok to me

Detroit....

 

[peternorth]

Danillo Gallineri has retired.

 

[Nicho50]

Story of the Knicks season so far, 14 point lead against Boston and instead of putting the foot on the throat Boston now lead by 1.

 

[hamG]

That'd be the end of Thanassis' career.

Would be a handy backup 5 in the NBL.

That is equally a joke and serious statement.

No bench support has been your achilles heel to HT. If they can’t contribute, I see Boston winnng comfortably. They’re in good form atm.

Shamet and OG out hurts, Clarkson been quite but has been pretty handy off the bench this season.

Tatum out hurts too.

 

[Nicho50]

Tatum out hurts too.

True that , Boston been way better than expected given the outs from last season.

 

[Nicho50]

Big game from Jalen Brown and a rare very poor game from Brunson.

 

[Borough Blood]

Oooof. Imagine how good Brown will be when he shaves his head.

 

[srobbo]

Jordan Walsh been a beast at both ends down the stretch here. Starting to come into his own now he’s getting minutes. Loving the organic improvement of the C’s squad. Huge wins @ Cleveland & backing it up @ home against the Knicks.

 

[Nicho50]

Oooof. Imagine how good Brown will be when he shaves his head.

Got to be one of the most under rated guns in the comp for mine.

 

[Son of Skeletor]

Zion out for three weeks with hip abductor.
