The Real 2014-15 NBA Regular Season Thread

it's hard to root for pointless wins though too.

 

[RipCity32]

I know, which is why I'm hoping this wins aren't pointless. Lol

 

[Pugz]

we aren't winning a playoff series, therefore, pointless.

 

[RipCity32]

Then we might as well just relocate the team or something cause they aren't getting a top pick either. Pointless to finish the season.

 

[Pugz]

you wanna win, i get it. you've never been fully on board with what this team needed to do, though. youre the dumars of our fan base.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Have the night off and finally get to watch some hoops, and it's a fucking Knicks game.

Lol I've been on board with losing until last season. In which I was back on board when it was evident we weren't making the playoffs and obviously we needed our pick.
We have gotten all 5 of our starters in recent drafts (Jennings via Knight), with Singler being the only one who wasn't part of the lottery.
We have been in the lottery the last 4 seasons. How much more losing can you tolerate, honestly? 4 trips to the lottery is plenty of time to rebuild a team.
Signing a guy like DJ, Caron, and Jodie wasn't for shits and giggles. They were players signed to fit Stan's system. Trading for Tolliver was also for that.

Point being, the team is finally fitting into the system and we have players that fit it will. Ending the season after all the changes we have made in the lottery is another wasted season. If you want to root for losses again, be my guess. I'm done with it.

Lmaooooooo I'm dead

we can continue to build the system and miss the playoffs. next season, sure, we better make the playoffs. you were the one that said we'd make the playoffs when svg took over. him alone made you think we were good enough. our team still had many flaws and right now, we're playing way ahead of ourselves.

 

[Pugz]

don't get me wrong, i like seeing us win too. this is the most ive watched us in a few years but this team still isn't ready, and when the offseason rolls around im gonna be scared as hell for our future with greg

 

[Teagz]

I don't think Stan's dumb enough to max Greg.
 
 
At least I hope not.

 

[Teagz]

Something called a Langston Galloway just scored for the Knicks

 

[Hurricane Season]

Langston Galloway and Travis Wear are on the floor at the same time for the Knicks, and both of them are doing things.

 

[Pugz]

he also can't just let him walk for nothing.

 

[elcheato]

Everyone on the TNT broadcast loves to talk about how Cleanthony Early can be good, or they think he's great because he had a good tourney game on their network. 

 

[bosoxlover12]

Can somebody take Jeff Green, Evan Turner, and Marcus Thornton away from us, please?
 
 
I want Smart and Young to get good minutes, man. Why play for the middle of the road; just fucking tank, Danny.

thats fine, I'd rather have young talent than 28 year old lesser talent

 

[Pugz]

id rather have a young coach who could be there for 10+ years.

I just don't get why we shouldn't aim playoffs now instead of getting another late lotto pick.
This team is obviously flawed but imo it's much much closer to a playoff team than a 1-4 pick team.
