The Real 2014-15 NBA Regular Season Thread

[Hurricane Season]

Hornets with another game winning opportunity.  Let's see if they draw up a non donkey brained play this time.

 

[Hurricane Season]

That answer is no.
 
...as Kemba shoots a floater from behind the fucking backboard after time expired.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Third time's a charm, right?
 
How about we let Al Jefferson shoot a three to tie the game.

 

[Hurricane Season]

lol, Josh Smith passed up a shot with 2 seconds left on the shot clock hoping the other dude would miss the shot so he could get a board, which would have given him a triple double.

Ricky Davis is my role model too

 

[CameronCrazy06]

umm source?

 
If he does leave you know he'd be likely to take a job with one of his former stars. Coincidentally both NO (Davis) and WAS (Wall) will probably be open this offseason.

Gonna say it now, Frank Kaminsky is going to end my streak of hating white bigmen in the draft. Might be a reach to pick where we end up picking, but I like him a lot.
Lot of players though I wouldn't mind. Especially since we need a player at both forward spots. 
 
Which is finally gotten me to the point where losing Monroe is meh to me. Got enough cap space for like 2 max contracts (not saying they will use it that way but that's still a lot of cash to fill needs), plus there is surplus of players we could draft to fill the needs we have too. Obviously losing Monroe for nothing is going to sting, and I will certainly miss him, but it won't be the end of the world.

Mr. Ove Gloves working out here lol.

I think frank is overrated as a pro prospect tbh but I think he could be a decent bench big on the right team

I'd be inclined to agree. Don't think he's going to be able to do much in the league other than take stand still jumpers, but that is still valuable as a 7 foot big man

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Think his absolute best case is Ryan Anderson. Not that that's a terrible best case, but he could fall way short

 

[CameronCrazy06]

In the duke game tonight, Justise Winslow hit back to back threes, did the harden celebration, and then didn't run back on D and gave up a layup.

Thats so harden-esque it hurts lol

Tyreke as well. Gotta be honest, if he truly wants to coach in the league again I think we could get him with relative ease. Just pay him and he would jump at the chance to coach AD again.

I will say this, I would be highly upset if he wanted to come here but we didn't want to pay him what he wanted. Benson bought this team for like 300-400 million and now they're worth a billion if not more. Money shouldn't be a factor.

 

[elcheato]

You'd have to make him the 2nd highest paid coach, at worst. There were reports that the Cavs offered him 10 years/60-80 million, and were going to make him Team President as well. 

 

[RipCity32]

The fact the Pistons had a 13 game losing streak, as well as a 10 game losing streak in the same season and are only 4 games out of 8th place in the East is hilarious lol.

 

[Mexi]

Jazz got shit for future all star enes kanter
Thats too bad

At least they have Gobert. But still

 

[buzzy]

future all star enes kanter

Detroit murdered the career of Ben Gordon. Dude is only 32, he should still be a productive NBA player at this point. 
Can't believe how hard he's fallen off.

i wouldn't say detroit did. he just wasn't good anymore. pure jumpshooter and he got shaky.

 

[RipCity32]

Yeah but the lack of a defined role certainly didn't help lol. Lost 10mpg coming here because there really wasn't a spot for him.
