2018-2019 NBA Season Thread : The One Where the Spurs Miss the Playoffs

[Guyverarmor]

They are also pretty good about paying out the ass for players but not really having anything to show for it.

[kisada]

or not wanting to pay for them then having nothing to show for it (james harden says hello)

[Guyverarmor]

Eh, one of the picks turned into Steven Adams so it's SOMETHING... but yeah

*Laughs in Daryl Morey*

Thunder have a much tougher schedule than the Spurs, unless the Rockets and Bucks rest everyone. LOL 8th seed

[Guyverarmor]

They either stay 8th or somehow slide into 7th. They are a 1st round exit either way.

Won't lie...would love to see em get a gentleman's sweep in the 1st by Nuggets just for the memes. Being swept by GS is kinda just expected.

[kisada]

okc has been in pretty bad shape since ASB. doubtful they get back to 7th seed. the team has some good things going for it but as always they never seem to value shooters or bring enough in.

Freaking Hawks keep winning gdi

He was two rebounds short with a minute left and the thunder up 16. Donovan was sending in the bench mob and Russ refused to come out.

Call me a hater but that's weak shit. Same as the Devin Booker game where they were force feeding him shots in a loss. If it doesn't come in the flow of the game then it means nothing to me. Tell me he has a 21-20-18 game and that's cool, but the other crap just makes me roll my eyes. I've never played basketball that way and always thought less of people that do. If you're counting your points in your head or checking the stat sheet mid-game I don't respect that.

I feel you on all that but Russ seems like the type of dude who will count how many fries are in each case before he decides which one to pass to his girl

Some dudes are just built differently. Normally I’d agree with you but Russ strikes me as a dude who’s always on 10

Fair. And I don't hate him. I love his passion and intensity. Just sharing that the "stat counting" shit rubs me the wrong way

I think the part that bothers me, similar to Kobe's final game, is I see the stat line and headline and think "whoa, awesome!" and then I read into it and it's partially "fake."

That spurs game NEVER happened last night. Understand ?

Also, Pop getting thrown out in the first 63 seconds of the game, wew lad.

But now we dropped to 8th. I can see us clawing back to 7th though.

Giannis with 45/13/6 to clinch the best record in the NBA for the Bucks (also best in franchise history) with a win @ the 76ers, despite Brogdon and Mirotic being injured and Bledsoe getting ejected 3 minutes in.

I love Embiid but Bledsoe punked him good

I am very amused that in the middle of all that shit you can see Steven A Smith running onto the court to try to get into the middle of it.

If you missed the story earlier this week, apparently Steph has unknowingly had blurry vision most of his life, and just a couple weeks finally started wearing contacts. Incidentally, since that point he's been shooting 48.7% from 3.

[Vaspinne]

Best shooter in the league when he was partially blind. This will be fun.

[Andalusian girls]

and Steph goes 1-9 from 3 tonight

think the blurry vision stuff is kind of a bullshit non-story. i'm glad dude doesn't need to squint to read a chalkboard anymore but i doubt it's going to have significant impact on his shooting.

[Krandor]

That was a very weird game to watch. Steph and Klay couldn't hit shit and Durant had a ton of turnovers, but none of it mattered cause quarters 2 thru 4 was basically extended garbage time because the Lakers are that fucking awful right now.

I mean the Dubs were up by 27 before Curry even scored a point.

Warriors Starters +/-

D. Green +32
K. Durant +37
D. Cousins +27
S. Curry +32
K. Thompson +24

I jinxed him. That's on me.

Bunch of NBA Agents have dropped out of representing Lonzo after his dad started asking them if they can get all his sons on one team. Lonzo just really needs to nut up and tell his dad to sit down and shut up at this point.
