The Week 8 NBA Thread - where we should all congratulate the Lakers. Salt and vinegar optional.

Why use many word when few word do

Ron Metta World Peace Sandiford-Artest?

What about a different case like Ja Morant ?

Morant: Ban tough, with 'some horrible days'

Ja Morant says being suspended by NBA commissioner Adam Silver for the first 25 games of the season has been tough, with "some horrible days" as he has worked to focus on himself away from basketball.

I feel like his suspension was really OTT

Should have been 10 games (max)

Hopefully he is a healthy mind space ready for his much anticipated return next week against the Pels.

Has his issues, but he's not making snap decisions based on losing his temper. He's making a conscious decision to go full-gangsta.

Only real similarity is that he's a recidivist offender who so far hasn't shown an ability to learn from his mistakes. Don't think a serious suspension was unwarranted given he was given a pretty clear and easy to comply mandate - don't play with guns.

Solid win against the Magic without KP.

Still undefeated at home.

 

[Memphis]

Celtics getting some valuable contributions from our bench/role players.

Hopefully that will be the case come the playoffs.

 

[LewisHall]

Hopefully that will be the case come the playoffs.

They will be playing a mostly 6 man rotation with a bit of Hauser or kornet match ups depending

Looking foward to the Brunson Burner lighting up LA and torching The Lakers tomorrow !

Clippers tomorrow. Lakers game is Tuesday

What’s the over/under for games played before he gets suspended for playing with guns again? Is 30.5 too high?

 

[tigs2010]

Tell you what, he would probably get a spot on the Pistons roster at the moment

I thought it’s maybe Ben Simmons but he’s actually not hesitating to shoot.

I'm sure we will be going 8 deep in the playoffs.

6 man rotation will gas everyone.

Thanasis with a net -5 in his two minutes of playing time in that second quarter of a game where the Bucks lead by 25...

We will be active before the trade deadline according to Brad.

Not a big name or someone on Big money, but a couple of teams that are having fire sales will be throwing up

Speaking of the trades, I am convinced Donovan Mitchell will be traded to Brooklyn either by the deadline or the off season.

He wants to play in New York and the Nets have much better assets to give the Cavs than Knicks.

A Mikal and Spida pairing would be very intriguing imo.

[Memphis]

Hawks coping a beatdown in the first quarter right now.

 

[Memphis]

His mental health is a great way to deflect from being a w***er. He's been doing it for years. Not sure why his mental health is being brought up now. Maybe cause they arent winning as regularly

Couldn't agree more.

How is that even possible?

 

[DT_35]

Must be nice to play Charlotte, Detroit & Washington 12 times a season lol

Flat track Joel at it again dominating a rabble of a team in The Hornets.

Rather convenient he misses these type of games against the worst teams in the NBA (even though he should for load management)

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Jimmy Buckets for the win !!!

 

[LB#16]

Himmy Butler has done it again.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Pistons actually making a case for the worst team of all-time this season.

That bad and so many NBA people are begging for expansion.

Josh Hart ejected and Russ waves goodbye to him from the bench

OMFG he is literally sitting out the 4th quarter of almost a quarter of his games... He is managing his minutes. You will literally *in criticise him for ******* playing NBA games.

Giddeys game time getting weird and worrying for him at OKC. It could be time for him to move on. Feel like he could be a good fit on San Antonio

In trouble. Isaiah Joe is better and Wallace looks handy
