[CJ_24]

Jason Terry still plays basketball. wat.

 

[Wolfman21]

The bucks are full of, "theyre still in the league?" Guys.

 

[CJ_24]

It's fitting, because the Bucks are a "they're still in the league?" team.

 

[zoltan]

i think lillard might be more skilled than curry. his finishing around the rim is ridic.

and mccollum may be the smoothest scorer i have seen yet. looks like hes not even trying half the time.

 

[zoltan]

[silverwheels]

RUSS with the first 50 point triple double since Kareem in like '74. rhubarb average af but RUSS da GOAT. He was a blown Oladipo layup from a triple double in game 1, too.

 

[goblue96]

When RUSS stars in Airplane 3, then he's da GOAT.

 

[zoltan]

AD putting up numbers too

 

[zoltan]

2016 the year of the super teams and the Demi gods.

Dream Team 2020: We bringing multiple 40-lb boxes.

World prepare ur anus.

 

[Reel]

This cocksucker drew Brees let all 3 of his sons wear curry jerseys to the game.

 

[GuyIncognito]

I mean, I knew this is what RUSS was going to be doing, but I just don't know how a human body can sustain that kind of physical exertion over the course of a season. It's not possible.

Probably not, but I'm going to enjoy the hell out of it while it lasts.

Edit- I also don't think this team is going to be as good as a lot of people are predicting. I'm seeing lots of picks in the 4-6 range but they haven't looked very good considering their poor competition (6ers and Phoenix are 2 of the 3 or 4 worst teams in the league).

 

[GuyIncognito]

I said earlier I think it's a 500 team in the West.

 

[bruin]

I've enjoyed watching the ERRRRZZZ these opening two games than I have all of Byron Scott's tenure.

going to be some definite rough patches the next couple year,s but will be exciting to see these guys grow.

 

[pavel]

Wait until RUSS comes home

Pels getting werked in San Antonio

 

[sayo]

Lillard time!

 

[sayo]

Pachulia fucking sucks.

 

[bruin]

Luke Walton already a first ballot HOF'er for getting Nick Young to buy into playing defense.

 

[zoltan]

Pachulia fucking sucks.

Well you guys get them next game right?

 

[GuyIncognito]

Westbrook is the first player since Magic Johnson in the 1982-83 season to begin a season with a triple-double in two of the first three games.

Westbrook is the fourth player to have two triple-doubles in the first three games, joining Johnson (twice), Jerry Lucas and Oscar Robertson (twice). Through three games, Westbrook is averaging a triple-double with 38.6 points, 12.3 rebounds and 11.6 assists. Robertson is the last player to average a triple-double, in 1961-62.

[colb]

Westbrook is also the first player, in the history of the NBA, to listen to Taylor Swift as a pregame warmup song.

 

[GR8 2 B FL G8R]

For the first time

I was the only person here who thought the trade for him was a good one, because at that time, no one knew he had medical issues, except the sixers, but that aside, assuming they were getting a healthy player in the deal, they needed a starting pg to pair with AD, and imo, no rookie they drafted was going to fill that void with immediate roi.

Everyone who wasnt a retarded Dealer Demps thought they were stupid to trade nerlens and the two 1st rd picks for Jrue.

So to answer your question,
Jeff Teague

 

[Reel]

pels 0-3, so lets talk about how AD is gonna leave in 4 years.

AHHHH...luh dem hot takes

 

[goblue96]

Pels 0-3
Moose 0-2

Winner of the jrue/Noel trade: no one

Luke warm take

 

[GR8 2 B FL G8R]

We would not have wasted the picks, in a fantasy world in which the Pels have a gm competent enough to NOT make the trade originally

Debate me in that hypothetical world, nonexistent dinosaur skeleton desu and my bard @Hachiko shall sing the glory of the tale. We shall call the song drop the take like it's hot, but the title will be written in the hieroglyphics of North aka Best Korea.

 

[Reel]

We off dat

 

[GR8 2 B FL G8R]

We on one, I already went Andre the Giant
Put an end to your hypothetical world like the Mayans
The hornets became the Jruish Pelicans so Mazeltov
Went from building around AD to fuckin falling off

 

[Reel]

GOT DAMMIT G8R!!!

 

[GR8 2 B FL G8R]

Holy shit thats my brothers favorite GI Joe, Roadblock, choking out Cobra Commander in reptilian form. The GI Joe Movie exposes the lizard peeps, good looks whodi.

 

[Brick]

[GuyIncognito]

You haven't seen Philly play yet this year, have you

 

[sayo]

You haven't seen Philly play yet this year, have you

I've seen a game and a half, actually. They aren't nearly as bad as they were last season and they could improve quite a bit as the season goes along.
