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

[Siccmade]

Magic really doesn't look good, talking bad about everyone. He said I'm gonna go out with class... Not really bro.

[Dimmauk]

As a Spurs fan and Lakers hater, the ending of this season was glorious.

[Kalmado]

Also, Heat are eliminated after Pistons came back from a 22 point deficit to beat the Grizz

That first half was just brutal. Drummond is so talented but he gets too emotional (down in the dumps) during games and will lose focus. But he really picked it up second half. Maybe that's Casey's influence? Blake's? Combo?! Ish Smith is so fun to watch and while we missed hard not picking Donovan Mitchell, Luke Kennard is slowly coming into his own. He can shoot. Just needs more confidence.

magic is a freaking nut lol i love it

[Andalusian girls]

Oh and Jamal Crawford dropped 51 points tonight (26 in the 4th quarter) to set the record for oldest player to drop 50 and highest scoring game ever by a bench player.

i actually hate that this happened Crawford has been one of the worst parts of the worst Suns season in living memory but i suppose dropping 51 to cap a terrible rotten no good season is the most Crawford thing possible

Zach dropped his year end list, quality as always only disagree a couple places

I GOT

MVP -Giannis (sorry James if this was football you'd get offensive player of the year)
DPOTY - Gobert
COTY - Doc
MIP - Siakam
ROTY - Doncic
6th Man - Sabonis

[kisada]

i think doc has done a great job but i'd still vote for budenholzer

[Krandor]

Giannis
Gobert
Bud
Siakam
Doncic
Lou Will

Also, some fun tidbits from SAS about Magic and the Lakers


Magic was supposed to fire Luke this morning,

Magic wanted to also fire Pelinka but felt like Jeanie, Linda Rumbis and Kobe would be strongly against it

according to SAS sources, Pelinka would go into the Lakers faculty a d ask sarcastic comments such as "Wheres Magic?", knowing Magic is elsewhere managing his other businesses

GMs also disliked Pelinka's past as an agent

SAS thinks Jeanie and other execs knew ahead of time Magic was planning to quit soon

[kisada]

lakers are such a shitshow oh my goodness

i felt like the deandre jordan hostage situation was the peak of nba drama. i could never envision how casually the drama sustained itself since then.

Zero Spurs on those lists. Per usual. DBFs

[Krandor]

Grizzlies fired their coach (Bickerstaff) and reassigned their GM (Wallace) to the scouting department.

Kings fired Joerger (why tho), and are looking to hire Luke Walton if he becomes available. Also Vlade got extended.

Cavs and Larry Drew have mutually parted ways.

Suns made James Jones GM officially after serving as interim this past season.

Bulls are looking to finalize Jim Boylen on a 3 year extension.

And the first episode for this season of Game of Zones is out - https://bleacherreport.com/post/nba/...s-QM1WGQr_Juss

[kisada]

joerger is not really considered a great coach and he is often contentious towards upper management. i think they will be happy to go after Luke.

[kisada]

Walton should be extremely happy to go there if the Lakers let him go. hell, i would be happy for him

[Guyverarmor]

Zero Spurs on those lists. Per usual. DBFs

Puro pinche Spurs !

[KuroTsuki]

And to no one's surprise, Lakers and Walton mutually agree to part ways.

[Andalusian girls]

OG Anunoby out indefinitely following an emergency appendectomy

Blake day-to-day with sore knee

Paul George day-to-day with sore shoulder

Embiid day-to-day with sore knee

[Kalmado]

Word on the Pistons sub is Blake is not doing good. As much as I'd love to see a great series, even with the Bucks crushing us, he needs to rest.
