2016/17 NBA Regular Season Thread

Wolves aint winning shit

I'm not sure why people expected differently. They won like 29 games last year, and added a rookie PG. Player development in an already great player from KAT wasn't gonna suddenly propel them into the 8th seed.

KAT needs to get his shit together when it comes to rebounding the ball. 6 rebounds last night, and I believe he had single digits in their first game, too. I know he was matched up with some bad motherfuckers who can push him around, but he's got to get it together in that area, and soon.

Mudiay, Porzingis, AD, im sure theres more this year

Im sick of these black shirts. Just ruins the look
I miss the no undershirts rule. I feel like it was no exceptions but now for whatever reason theyre cleared

They've always been cleared for injury purposes

Such a huge difference for us in games 1 and 2.. need to stick to moving the ball .. none of that iso offense

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Derrick Rose looked good last night. He didnt score a lot and wont and Not saying he is his old self again, but he is definitely showing it.

 

[dez]

Yeah.. couldn't tell by his statline but he and that offense ran really smooth in the 1st..

That cross on Conley? Whoop! Lol

 

[elcheato]

Rose is a terrible basketball player, but we will keep having this same song and dance every year where people will talk about the potential of his team if he returns to his "old self".
 
He got a time machine? 

 

[videofreak8]

I think that you're not using the word "terrible" correctly.

I'm just not 100% sold on wiggins
Seems like a rudy gay type. Scorer but not a needle mover

Maybe he's demar who is slightly an upgraded rudy

Because that's who he is right now. He doesn't rebound, and he is certainly not a playmaker. His defense hasn't been good so far in the league either.

Mexi again again and again

Btw Dame lillard

 

[Mexi]

im in the same boat.

[Mexi]

Mexi again again and again

Just dont know why people hate harden when dame plays similar defense and has a tendency to chuck at times

One of the reasons i wasn't sold on them

People love made up hype

 

[Paulius]

To be fair its their second game with a new coach. Give it 10 games , especially since towns hasnt been playing well . Wiggins is trying to prove something , but for team success they should rather play thru towns

U said dame is overrated , thats all . I never said i hated harden, nor is he overrated . You just make him out to be some MJ of 2017 with your comments

 

[Paulius]

Mexi whatd u say last night about the bulls?

 

[Pugz]

i think wiggins is what he is. his scoring numbers can improve but thats it. been saying that for a while now. they'll need a player better than him to play second fiddle to kat
