2016/17 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Mexi]

This will be a blood bath

 

[Paulius]

Nah , no adams this will be a shit show

 

[Paulius]

Hopefully okc puts a fight and makes it a fun game

 

[Mexi]

Id like to see a kd and russ shoving match

 

[buzzy]

a friday night sissy fight?

The NBA schedule makers really blew it by not having Durant's return to OKC by now. Especially given that we have two matchups in Golden State before. It should've either been on Opening night or the Christmas game.

 

[Paulius]

Beautiful passing

 

[Mexi]

One thing i notice
When russ passes, guys shoot immediately
Like its a point of emphasis
And obviously rebounds are easy to get when they get out of the way. Sabonis doesn't even try to rebound and steve adams when healthy only averages like 7

 

[Paulius]

They knew he'd be too shook to go back there not being settled in yet. Now hes good, the preassure is off about that entire situation so once he goes back it wont be that bad. That first game for sure should have been in okc i agree

Just stop man

 

[Paulius]

Ok the bench needs to keep it close for once

 

[Paulius]

KD feeling like the man vs okcs second unit

 

[Paulius]

Kanter and Eric Gordon for 6MOY

 

[Mexi]

Kanter and Eric Gordon for 6MOY

its not even close
Gordon is going to be an all star

 

[Paulius]

Damn wish okc had 2 all stars

 

[buzzy]

I find it weird that apparently Oscar Robertson averaged a triple double in the 60s but bball ref doesn't even have any records of any individual stats of the games they played, except for points, fouls, FGM's and FT's.

 

[bosoxlover12]

No he's not
 
 
edit: re: eric gordon

 

[Paulius]

Only 9 teams back then

Oscar averaged 44 min vs Russ 34

Pace was 119 vs 106 now

This era has ridiculous amount of talent at the guard position

Russ > Oscar
