2016/17 NBA Regular Season Thread

what does this even mean

It means that nowadays , if a team doesnt have 3 or 4 all stars , that team is close to being irrelevant

Where the good old days when each team had one superstar and then a sidekick and supporting casts? Why the need of 4 superstars to make the game so damn easy?

 

[Paulius]

Did LeBron draft Kyrie? 
 
The current Cavs team was built with the picks and assets they accumulated when LeBron was gone. 

Kyrie is prolly the only acception , and some would still argue that those drafts were rigged and scripted for his return, especially that second time yall got the 1st overall when there was only like a 3% chance

Klove for wiggins was all lebron
Mozgov jr smith shump was lebron

Almost as if players started to care about winning, nothing you ever judged someone by

Youre making things up in your mind

Teams have always had rosters full of stars

So making trades doesn't count as the organization building the team if LeBron is on the team? Sweet logic

Show me a team that had 4 all stars on one team before

Lol he clearly asked for all those trades. Was never satisfied even having KYRIE AND LOVE on his team.

Can we atleast agree he put the heat team together?

06 Pistons

This has spiralled out of control

The point is , this era needs 3 or 4 all stars on their team to stay relevant. Theres absolutely zero balance in the league

We have warriors and cavs and then the rest of the teams. Thats soo much fun!

 

[Mexi]

98 lakers lol

Miami had literally only Chalmers on the books in 2010, and Wade and Bosh had committed before Lebron.

cavs are beatable its just the raps and celtics are afraid to make a power move

2014-15 Hawks

Also its a testament to lebron james and the warriors

Clearly they all planned it come on , wasnt an accident lebron and bosh ended up there lol

2014-15 Hawks

Ok yall gonna attack me with this shit when yall know better what i mean

Comparing korver teague milsap horford to klay curry dray kd now smh come on

 

[Paulius]

Im shocked you guys are so ok with this warriors team doing what they did and what the heat did, whatever. To each their own i guess

 

[buzzy]

Maybe they did, maybe they didn't. Doesn't mean Bosh wasn't interested in playing with Wade regardless of Lebron coming or not

 

[Paulius]

Difference between the FO building teams and friends building teams

 

[Mexi]

Draymond is a 6'5 overachiever
Klay was a mid lotto pick
Steph was highly doubted coming into the league

Just give them credit
