We saw glimpses of this indiscipline last night when they went on runs and then lost leads. The mentality of this team is too soft despite all the gra-gra. The Lakers would have buckled down and handed them an L if this was a meaningful game.

Losing to the Clippers on opening night is actually the most fun thing there can ever be. The way Clippers fans and Lakers haters are all over Twitter gloating is just a fun sight. grin Skip Bayless has tweeted no less than 20 times already. Talmbout how PG is back and how the Clippers are better. Man, they never learn. We should do this again next year cheesy

You really take skip seriously? Lol

The Nets looked smooth. I won't read too much into this W just yet till I see them against the big boys but one thing I must say the Warriors have entered real one chance with Kelly Oubre and Andrew Wiggins.

The bass from the bricks Andrew Wiggins was shooting fit make you deaf. I don't think you will ever find a much hyped #1 pick that wound up doing so little. My God did the Warriors not do any scouting? Good as Steph is though he shot horribly as well I just don't see what you do with an Andrew Wiggins as your second scoring option or second best player because he's just a low efficiency, high volume scorer who does precious little else

I think we will and his name is Markelle Fultz grin

Boy completely forgot how to shoot shocked shocked

Lool at least Fultz can do other things. I would take Fultz ahead of Wiggins. He would pass and rebound and will not shoot your team out of games

Neither team played too great tbvh. LeNomad was terrible and AD even worse. Kawhi was poor as well. I'm looking at the so-called new additions of the Lakers with side eye though. Wes Matthews and Marc Gasol. If those guys get significant minutes in any game the Lakers will be at disadvantages
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 12:22am On Dec 24, 2020
Harden's recklessness has led us to the first postponement of the season. I'm confused. They allowed him play preseason. No? Either way with Harden's antics I don't see why any responsible GM will trade for him.

You're not beating AD and LeNomad, KD and Kyrie or Paul George and Kawhi with Harden as your best player so what's the point

Man is just too inconsistent sad
Consistent will imply he's good sometimes. He's an empty calorie scorer sorta like a Rudy Gay in his Toronto days and I'd say worse

Looks like someone else caught the rona. Hardens own bonehead violation would have just been a fine i think. Lets see if they reveal who caught the bug

Your rookie KJ Martin is the player that tested positive for the virus. As for Harden there are small rumors they are trying to tempt D. Ainge to work a trade with the Celtics with my boy J. Brown being the center piece of that trade scenario. Na God I take beg Ainge.. He should not allow the devil to use him oh! angry

Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 4:14am On Dec 24, 2020
Ja Morant is a big problem! Baba threw the ball to the board for a self assist! 42 points with less than 2 mins to go!

The Mavs and Bucks offense is just too similar. Give Doncic/ Giannis the ball and everybody else get out of the way. This is not a sustainable pattern especially for Doncic/ Mavs who will end up burned out before the post season or injured. This has been something I have observed since last season I must clarify.

Bucks are much better on defense this year, and I see Giannis is much better at reading those double teams, even though Smart owned him early on. If not for that bank shot 3 from Tatum, the bucks would have won that game in what would have been described as a gutsy comeback win.

Too early in the season, but I see Giannis put in some work in the off-season
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 7:50pm On Dec 25, 2020
Brandon Ingram is trying so hard to play like KD. cheesy grin. Even his movement. Unfortunately, he's not quite the shooter. At least not yet.

How though? Based on what you've seen so far (it's only two games) or based on the additions they made?
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 10:36pm On Dec 25, 2020
Another lottery loading. cheesy grin. But well why will they shoot well if when their leader has been bricking threes too.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 11:01pm On Dec 25, 2020
At 87 Hubble Brown remains one of the best basketball commentators I have listened to, by far one of the most intelligent keepers of the game. Listening to his hoarse voice as he battles through the game makes me realize that only Father Time is undefeated. I hope he is okay.

With Klay injured you think we really stand a chance in the wild west? I done talk am before. What do you people expect from the Warriors this season? Best is we finish 7th or 8th seed with a healthy Steph and Draymond and that's if Wiggins can act as a poor man Harrison Barnes. With Klay's absence, Curry's lack of any sense of urgency (including Steve Kerr) and poor individual offense is why I don't expect anything from the team this season. Who else can score on that team? No one except Curry. Abeg, tank this season and don't give us false hope.
