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

[Kalmado]

Blake is shooting 65.2% for 3's. But he's still slashing to the hoop. That figure won't hold, but it's a very promising look at how he may perform moving forward. Also, Drummon with another 20/20.

[Andalusian girls]

Blake has never gotten enough credit for how he reinvented his game as a capable volume 3-point shooter and a playmaker in space as his athleticism declined

[Krandor]

i feel like this season is crazier than i remember on terms of insane stat averages

Its the shot clock change.

Its the shot clock change.

That's actually had a negligible effect. It's mainly been more/better 3 pt shooting along with faster pace resulting in more possessions.

yeah. it's kinda hard to when you get hurt every year, and that stopped him from stringing together the mvp-type seasons you need to get on the map.

Forgot to mention the Darius Miles story from a few days ago in Players Tribune, worth checking out.

I’ve owned many jerseys in my day, basketball and football. Darius Miles Clippers Jersey is the only one I still have. TWO FISTS TO THE DOME

I gotta finish that read. Was very good so far and the explanation for Two Fists was pretty cool.

Watching Pistons vs. Celtics right now and it's a great game so far. Some ticky tack fouls on Detroit but you gotta expect a team like the C's to get calls. Stanley Johnson stepping up huge so far. Celtics ball movement is supreme.

edit: Twice now Jason Tatum has been crying to refs for calls on light contact. Weak.

[Kalmado]

Celtics turned it up ten notches and through 2 1/2 are killing the Pistons. Blake is completely off and Andre has missed some easy shots. The Celtics depth is insane. Yeah Golden State has their roster, but the Celtics have a ton of talent as well. Pistons tonight are off as a unit but Blake is SUPER off. He couldn't continue those numbers forever.

[Cail]

Cleveland has fired Tyronn Lue

[Krandor]

Remember when people thought he was more then just a puppet coach for LeBron?

Wait, you mean everyone thought that? Well NVM then

Sad to see the memes go tho

[Krandor]

Also I rescind the part where I said the Cavs make the playoffs over the Pistons.

Even if they regress more to the mean like they did against the Celtics, they're still looking like a prospective playoff team in the East

Well, Casey gets to show his skill on Tuesday with a rematch against the Celtics so we'll see what adjustments will happen and if anyone besides Blake and Andre can score. Bullock and Galloway have been trash. Reggie and Ish not terrible. I love watching Ish Smith play. Seeing him fly around the court live was a treat. Not sure why Casey is playing Galloway over the rookies tho.

Cavs are so fucking bad and now Love is injured. Doesn't look like Hawks will be getting that pick from the Korver trade -_-

Another #1 for Cleveland?!

The lottery odds are flatter now, thank god, with the top 3 teams all having only 14% odds each.

But yes, they will win and I will break something.

So Cavs fired Lue and Rick Pitino hired Drew Rosenhause. Cooincidence?

[Andalusian girls]

Klay went fucking ballistic, 52 points in 26 minutes. Dubs up 40 so don't think he gets run for the 16ish minutes left but dude was staring at 60-70 ez
