Roland kilode na only you waka come? First it was Rodgers and now Hayward.

When I thought a new week would bring good luck, it only got worse. I desperately hope Hayward is ok after the surgery, I can't imagine the devastation his family feels right now.

Cavs will improve as they play more together, they didn't play well enough last night. Second half seemed a bit aimless, they almost blew their lead and the Celtics came bacl from slack defense and turnovers.

I wish Hayward a speedy recovery. LeBron and Kyrievat the end hits me badly but i guess he get what he wants now.

Im glad the Lebron and Kyrie kinda de-escalated the issue at the end. Another reason Lebron is not Kobe or Jordan. Those guys will hold the grudge for as long as possible

Can't wait to abuse Ivica Zubac tonight,Lakers version of Ivan Rakitic,the lanky shïtcünt.
Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 8:17pm On Oct 19, 2017
I knew it's going to be a miracle to make playoffs but then, to lose our team's spirit with Butler and Wade gone...

Portis and Mirotic have cost us a shaky start and beginning with Raptors isn't the best form of the process.

Let's get in. #Bulls

it's safe to say bulls just lost even with raptors not scoring in the final quarter

Love what am seeing with OKC thunders...... big three already in double figures by halftime and nice ball movement...... #legit 2nd seed in the west....

Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 3:19am On Oct 20, 2017
Thunder sleepwalked into a blowout. These guys are legit. I think this is potentially the deadliest trio in the league. They are not pure shooters like the warriors big 3, but they can score and affect the game with their size strength and speed. Im not sure they even need a deep bench. Either paul george or melo can run with the second team and keep them potent

Shots not really going in for P.G and Melo but good defensive play from P.G with his steals.

P.G and Melo can shoot so i'm not scared.

Its just our first game but i believe the more they play,the better the chemistry but the man to beat is still RUSSELL WESTBROOK(in my own opinion,still a strong MVP contender if he stays fit and healthy in the season).

Their plan is for Melo to have extended run with the second team to allow more rest for Wesbrook against playoffs.....
They did that during preseason....

Lol. This Patrick Beverley na Agbaya, He bullied Lonzo all through. he should do the same with Boogie or Draymond, not on a rookie.

This OKC team looks really scary, even with the addition of PG and Melo, Westbrook stats is still on deck. Steve Adams defense was also lit 5/5 shooting,5 steals,3 Blocks . No way on earth will PG leave this team for the Lakers.

Lonzo papa just put unnecessary pressure on top him boy with his big mouth. Every defensive stopper would go out their way to shut him down. He is going to have to earn his stripes every night!
For OKC I still would like to see who gets the ball in tight games in the 4th. Russell has help now and should improve his shot selection

All hope is not lost for him returning by playoffs time. Heard his surgery went very well. What matters for now is how quickly Brown,Tatum,Smart can contribute at a high level. Marcus Morris still dey as well. Na just to compete be the koko for una this year. I think you guys have a roster spot and $8m left

Brodie doesn't need to improve on his shot selection. His charity stripe points will take care of his ppg. Last year, he'd people like Steve Adams to feed but now 2 of the best SFs in the league.

I just hope he realizes that...

His father talking crap caused all this. Lakers is now a team with little or no offense after letting Young, Williams and Dlo go, Lonzo would really need to earn his strips every night just as you said because this Lakers don't look like a team that can put up enough numbers.

Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 10:03am On Oct 20, 2017
Can't believe Magic traded Russell for Brook Lopez,only for him to come here and getting out rebounded by a Point Guard.


Arghhh...my head is spinning. angry


Still not sold on Luke Walton,he has until the next game to fix up and get me a win.

Cause if we don't we against the Phoenix Suns,our season is over.

Early days yet but it's apparent Lonzo doesn't totally trust his jumper, he has to realize very quickly that the Lakers are going to need him to drop at least 15 a night if they are even going to compete. Gone are the days where pure passing point guards amount to anything in this league

Well, he started the summer league poor and ended up getting the mvp, let's give him a little time. But I know for sure Lakers won't make the playoffs with this roaster in the west.

I didn't watch the complete game but with the little I watched, they were struggling offensively. Lonzo could have gotten more assists if the other players were consistent. Lopez and Clarkson both tried tho.
