Okay, now that that's all over, let's talk about important stuff: who wants Carmelo Anthony? I mean that as a serious topic of conversation. Where does he fit? I honestly can't figure out where he can go or in what situation he would actually be a positive for a team. Is there any team that a) can take him that b) would actually need him? A Griffin-less Clippers team?

Swap Blake and Melo and you got yourselves three-fourths of a banana boat!

The NBA is incredibly entertaining and there is at least one reason to watch every single team, every single night. Except the Magic. But, like, the Magic are going to be playing an interesting team every night! So even the Magic.

I really want the Warriors to revive Nick Young's career in a Javale McGee-like way. Alternatively he should definitely, definitely sign up to be a third or fourth alpha.

Dexo posted:I'm trying to think what coaches are on the hot seat that isn't on a rebuilding team that Doc Rivers could go work for because Lord knows he's not staying on the Clippers. CLEVELAND Is Blake's paperwork through or can he do the same thing that Paul did, i.e. take the option and get traded?

aBagorn posted:Sixers gonna make the playoffs Sure, why not? Are there even eight decent teams in the East? Cavs Celts Wizards Bucks Raptors without Lowry? Who's ahead of them if they're healthy? Charlotte? Whatever the Hawks look like without Milsap? The second-half-of-last-season Heat? I feel like all three of those teams would have to overperform for the Sixers to stay out. Again, if they're healthy, which I suppose is them overperforming.

Am I dumb, or does Iggy not meeting with Golden State not mean anything? He knows what they have to offer him. He doesn't need a powerpoint presentation.

Clippers to replace Redick and Crawford with a player that is completely unlike either of them in any way, quite literally the inverse of Jamal Crawford (although both are very likable dudes) edit: honestly who scores points on this team when Blake and Gallo are hurt for 30 games?

I'm very excited to see how the Morii influence this fun new Wizards-Celtics rivalry. Also someone post that video/gif of Markieff watching Oubre's pounce.

kiimo posted:Clippers should move back to San Diego and take advantage of the power vacuum. I would love that but there's no way this city would support an NBA team. I feel like successful "small market" (SD is not at all small but that's how it's labeled) teams work by tapping into their host cities' identities, and if San Diego has an identity, it's that it's the City That Is Really Pretty But Has Absolutely Nothing Under the Surface. We're working on an MLS team, which I think would work, but the developers that are pushing it are particularly shady and keep getting called out on their bullshit, so we'll see.

EvanTH posted:everybody I know what lives in SD loves it but doesn't respect it and barely considers themselves residents. It's odd stuff I grew up and have lived my whole life in San Diego and it was weird the first time I went to the east coast and said "Oh, so this is what a city is." San Diego is a whole bunch of very, very different neighborhoods that all either actively refuse to acknowledge each others' existence or are outright antagonistic to each other. It's a beautiful place full of beautiful people and it's sunny and 75 degrees all the time and there's just about every pleasant kind of natural environment within a half hour and we have the best Mexican food on the planet at every tier. But yeah, it's barely a city.

The last page made me look up to see how Nate Robinson did in his G-League stint and lo and behold he just finished a season in the Venezuelan league and his team (Guaros De Lara) won the league championship! The league website does not appear to have up-to-date boxscores and the most recent story is from June, before the final:quote:Guaros (4-0) dispatched Crocodiles of Caracas (0-4) at the United Nations Park with a 97-95 board (28-22, 22-25, 24-26, 23-22) to dethrone the champion of the League and also the Western Conference.

So let's say IT's hip is much worse and he's out for the East Finals, so the trade is basically a Kyrie for Crowder swap. How many games do the Celtics win in that hypothetical series? Assuming full health for both teams outside of IT.

As a person who is going all in on the Timberwolves and is irrationally optimistic about them, 48 is a lot of wins. That's more games than they've won in 15 years.

Lockback posted:I'd take the under, but it's close. Jimmy Butler dragged a terrible roster to .500 last year, sniffing 50 is certainly reasonable, even if it is a bit optimistic. Sure but he did it in the East. Not only is it the better side in general, I feel like every team in the West got better outside LAC, MEM, and UTA (and GSW but you know). I feel like 50 wins is everything going right: Towns continuing to improve, Wiggins taking the next step, Butler going off, the defense coming together, and the bench not blowing it every night. I'd consider it a great season for 3 out of the 5 of those. And I feel like #2 and 3 might conflict a bit, at least early on. edit: I'm more than happy to be surprised though!

Zogo, assuming you're going to set up your yearly poll, can you have us all guess as to how many regular season games Wade will play?

If they make the team selection live it will be so good. Have them all line up against the wall of a gym. Keep ten high definition cameras locked onto KD's face from every angle.

Positions and roles, things to look for that arent sick dunks, that kind of thing It is great that you are trying to learn! But it is also important to know that looking for sick dunks is a perfectly acceptable and wholly enjoyable way to consume the sport of basketball! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIUHj8gSkoM
