Donlittle:You said the fact. You know teams rebuild for a lot of reason, The team is getting too old, your star player is no longer in their prime, or the bankroll can no longer afford to keep the talent together so let's not act like Marc doesn't fall in one of this and with the way things look for them ATM, I doubt they can continue coming back as 8th or 7th seed in the playoffs or they can suck for more years in the hopes of being a team good enough to compete with the top teams in the west. I'm not saying the Grizz needs a rebuilt right now buy I'm sure they would give him out for TT, Shump and the Nets pick |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 7:31pm On Nov 28, 2017 |
lolawilliams:I think they should rebuild anyways, move conley, parsons, and gasol the same year, its the key. Moving all of them at the same time to start a rebuild. You don't want to move one, and still be okay enough to make 30- 35 wins. You won't get into the playoffs, and won't get a good pick either. Moving conley, and gasol the same year guarantees them enough picks to start all over again, Quickly. They might need to call that man in boston to teach them, Although, i don't think any team in the nba is as stupid as the nets. ![]() How long did the boston rebuild take again? seems like the quickest rebuilding i have ever seen in my whole dang on life. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by lolawilliams(f): 8:52pm On Nov 28, 2017 |
Donlittle:Moving all of them at once will make them a complete a$$ , they are stuck with Parson, and Conley is still worth that contract, and I doubt the would wanna leave him. they can give us Marc and we give them the Nets pick and some other players, they would become a lame team for a year or Twp and hopefully they come back prepared ![]() Celtics fans should keep thanking Ainge for a rebuild like this, imagine if Hayward wasn't injured. Even horford is bringing that Hawks vibe again. I just read an article now which says the teams Celtics lost to this season are the team the made a trade with Cavs- IT, Crowder, Zizic and Jeff Pistons- Bradley Heats- Kelly Olynk, Jordan Mickey Bucks- Jason Terry What went wrong ![]() |

Whiteside is going to kill us today. Here's to hoping we win regardless. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 3:25am On Nov 29, 2017 |
UlrikVandram:Boy was I wrong! Whatever plan they had for him worked. K Love ate them up! Utterly destroyed them on the second night of a back to back. Great defensive and offensive performance. LeBron got ejected for the first time in his career. Feel bad for the ref, he's getting fired. Still kind of sad, go 15 years without getting ejected and that's what does it? |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 4:49pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
Donlittle:I want to see the GM that would be stewpid enough to pick up the contracts of Parsons and Conley. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 4:54pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
UlrikVandram:Dion Waiters was the obvious choice. Surprised you missed it They need to deliver that Clippers franchise. They are cursed |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 4:57pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
A40:I am telling you, that is why i think it is difficult for them to rebuild. Like who will take those contracts? Unless they buy out these guys contracts, no team in the Nba will take them. But then again, someone took paul pierce, and kevin garnett. Strangers things have happened |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 5:00pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
A40:Wasn't too worried about him because even with the chip on his shoulder against the Cavs he's inconsistent. Traditional bigs tend to punish Kevin love. Lol! Isn't Blake dating Kendall Jenner? Well there's your curse. It's real people! |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 5:42pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
A40:When Rivers figured out to use Williams as a starter, the Ws started coming and then you lose your best player on top the other one wey don tey. Na spiritual something... |

Eruditor:I'm still wondering what is bruised hand Like his light skinned black äss touched charcoal and the stain couldn't come off ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 6:10pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
VivaLaByke:Lakers have won the last 3 matchups at Staples Center I think. So no worry, you even get Lonzo ![]() But you don't want to catch Warriors after an L. Back to back Ls ain't their forte. Hopefully, Curry will be out on a pedicure leave or something... |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 6:26pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
Donlittle:Yes. It's definitely going to be very tough. At times it's better to hit rock-bottom and rebuild properly than to be stuck in the purgatory of a middling team. The Grizzlies are now overpaying for perma-crocks like Parsons and Conley who have no upside The Nets are a cautionary tale. Everybody don wise up |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:39pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
A40:This hit right home when i think of dallas. I believe we should have reached rock bottom a year after winning a championship. Rebuild, and become better within two, three or four years. But we were just in the middle, winning 49 - 50 games, first round playoff exit, and doing the same thing next year. It is the same thing with the grizzlies too, If you keep conley and parsons, you will be winning 40 games, and won't be able to get a top 10 pick to rebuild your franchise, so you are just in the middle, not making playoffs, not winning, or making it, and exiting in the first round. If you keep gasol, conley, and parsons with good all around players, you get to the playoffs, make the second round and exit. You get into that situation where you just have to trade everyone at the same time, like ainge did with paul and garnett. On the other hand, your best players can't get you to the promise land anymore, but you can't let them go because of bad contracts. The situation there is just all messed up. Mark cuban dodged a bullet with parsons, because even if conley goes somewhere, parsons is definitely not, and you are stuck with buying him out. |

UlrikVandram:Naa Whiteside won't score enough to trouble y'all. Love was on fire last night. If his shots fall like that traditional bigs become useless. Blake dating Kendall? Aww man don't these niggas ever learn |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:49pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
lolawilliams:they have to be a complete a$$ to be good. Struggling to make the playoffs and not getting a lottery pick is not the best, in hindsight, been good enough to make the playoffs and also exit in the second round with aging players is bad also. Would rather just tank to be honest, get at least two good picks from those players..... and tank for a year or two with a chance of getting two lottery picks..... before you know it, you are back in the mix again.... they will lose $$ sha which it all comes down to sha |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:52pm On Nov 29, 2017 |
A40:Yeah but he can destroy us at the boards which is just as bad. And there was a time when our defense turned scrubs to all stars when it comes to scoring. Love was amazing, if only he can be half as good as he was last night every night. They think the curse is a joke. I did too, I don't anymore. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 1:19am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Scenes if Lonzo drops a triple double today....Lmaoooo. ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 3:34am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Team officially in crisis.. ![]() After fizdale...Maybe Donovan next?? ![]() Just thinking.. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 4:43am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Donlittle:I remember after the Championship year the FO went to get Lamar Odom and Vince Carter. Smh Then traded the future for Rondo, got jilted by Deandre Jordan of all people and then settled for Parsons. The lack of planning and direction was mind blowing. |
| Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 5:59am On Nov 30, 2017 |
They done injure Curry. ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 6:09am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Everyone who leaves brodie takes their talent to a new level. You play with him and you're automatically a scrub who can't help.. Now it's Melo's fault they're losing according to some fans who claim he can't play defense but has 3rd best Defensive rating and efficient with their ISO It's never the point guard who can't run the offense in the 2nd half, it's never the guy who when people leave, takes a career leap. Donovan will soon get fired which was long overdue for a coach who can't check his players or stars and hold them accountable for losses. KD is playing defense like crazy, Kanter is holding his own on the Knicks, Oladipo playing like an MVP, Sabonis has basically divided Myles Turners minutes but Donovan didn't see those potentials. The playoffs was important but letting your PG run his numbers at the expense of other players was more importanter ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 7:32am On Nov 30, 2017 |
When last did we have a PG that can't shoot? Ben Simmons is good but a pile of shït when it comes to doing the basics |

OMG....Brandon and Lonzo went off..WOW. 32points for Brandon Durant. ![]() Lonzo double double bayyyybbeeeehhh. ![]() |

Ingram is unbelievable my GAWWWWWDDD. Yet people compare him to Jaylen Brown....lmaoooo. ![]() |

VivaLaByke:39? Nah he scored 48 What kind of network are you using? |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 8:41am On Nov 30, 2017 |
The 2 players that have been supposedly injured bailed out Warriors You can't make this stuff up |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 9:28am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Decale:32* points. I watched the game and didn't make noise here?? LOOOOOOLLLL. ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 9:29am On Nov 30, 2017 |
Brook Lopez couldn't even feast on Zaza fücking Pachulia. ![]() Quite possibly the worst player in the team. ![]() |
| Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 6:01pm On Nov 30, 2017 |
Klay Thompson has been a big disappointment this year. To think I once thought he could potentially be the best SG in the league Can we have a moment of silence for an old forumite and diehard Bulls fan (Bawomolo) today marks the 7th year since he was killed. May he continue to rest |
