The Official Bigfooty NBA Week 10 Thread - Rise of the Superteams?

How is Irving an All Star starter for running away during tough times when LaVine is absolutely balling is beyond me.

Because Irving deserves it. Arguably the best guard this season.

LeBron's MVP is slipping away.

Nets winning a chip before the Celtics would be pretty hilarious.

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest. I think Knicks fans would be far more B/H about it tbh.

Has not been better than Dame.

Frank Kaminsky’s isn’t

I'm not going to say you are wrong, but there's not much in it really.

 

[Marcel Proust]

Lakers lack depth. No AD, Schroeder, Cook (to be waived). Much like Liverpool in the injury department however

Lolbron.

Finch going hard with the 'getting KAT back to the centre of everything' lines. Feels like a pretty direct dig at Saunders and I can't say I disagree with it.

It’s a long bow to draw given how much he has missed! Feel for Saunders a little. They have some talent at the wings with Edwards and Beasley. Athleticism at the big spots too. No opportunity for cohesion with Kat at the helm. Another talent coming in next year in a strong draft and Finch looks like a genius.

Chicago decimating the texas team further solidification of the east superiority

Short flagpole...

 

[BigBreakfast]

I could see Utah / clippers

Even suns doing a number on them

Keep writing them off... Bron is the shared GOAT for a reason. Mid season games mean nothing...

 

[BigBreakfast]

I agree, but Lillard not starting is still the biggest shock to me for the all-star.

He can’t defend a brick wall though.

KAT didn't have a touch in the fourth quarter of a tight game a week or so ago, and went on record as saying it "would have been nice to get a touch." That just can't happen with a player like KAT. Agree he's missed a lot of time but it has been all too common across multiple seasons with Saunders.

I do feel for Saunders, though. This meant a lot to him given his family's connections, and he's had some real bad luck with DLo/KAT. He certainly didn't help himself at times though, pushing line-ups that cost us games (DLo/Rubio pairing) and saying that it needs to work so he'll keep going back to it, refusing to play late game actions through Beasley, not using KAT enough, and consistently poor actions out of time outs. A lot of the problems of this team are on personnel, but Saunders didn't really endear himself as a coach.

I think we're better than we look, but there are still issues. The concern is not being able to get our max players on the court together, and that we don't have a first round pick unless the lottery gods are kind to us.

Saunders was the shittest coach in the league. He got the job through pure nepotism.

Obvious that KAT needed more touches, the guy is the best player on the team by far. He's a decent passer and can shoot from anywhere, most of the offense should have been running through him.

Not getting touches probably has more to do with the young team than Saunders. You would think Rubio would get him involved though.

Sad to say I've lost faith in Kemba.

What a soft offensive foul called wtf is this league coming to.

I cant see him being part of a championship team in boston. What did you give up for him (aside from Rozier)

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

The decision making of Dallas down the stretch has been awful

 

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Not bad Luka!

Luka just s**t on the Celtics twice in 20 seconds.

Love the Mid-Court logo but that Nuggs jersey needs to be shot into the sun

It baffles me that when teams wear similar colours when there are alternatives available. For example, Denver wearing that red/off red against portland

If the injury rumours are true it's going to be a tough couple of years.

Remember how Iverson's career fell off a cliff.

Pffft, Reddish wouldn't have left 0.1 seconds on the clock.
