NBA Season 2018 | Dec | Smokey goes to the wilderness, finds plenty of Rivers
Seeing the Lakers in 7th place for defensive rating after the way they started the season is crazy.
I still feel the offense should rank higher but Luke hasn't figured out how to stagger guys. I want to see more lineups with Zo/Hart/BI/Kuz/Chandler while LeBron rests.
I feel like Luke is doing what Brooks did in OKC, only playing his star guys together. Luke needs to look at what he did in GS to figure out some rotations.

Damn good wifi you got out there at your campsite
Jazz are still not good. With all of these road games, we're on pace to tie the all-time record for most road games played in a season, however. So there's our excuse.

I asked Ronnie Nunn on twitter if the Doncic move was a travel and here's what he wrote back
Suck on this haters but i'm sure y'all know better than a pro.
Legal ... He gathers on his L Foot (0) launches backward in the air and lands with a R (1) + L (2) and re-launches to shoot his shot. Hope this helps ... RN

By Doncicic Go To PostLakers are worse than fifth. Look who they beat. One good win vs Nuggets but that's it.
I, too, am concerned about this.
People also keep acting like the couple of games they dropped to Orlando are the only couple of games they should've won or split. Well, what about the couple of games they've played against the Spurs so far, that they also lost, that they should've won or split? That's like four losses in total that I have no confidence Walton even knows wtf he is doing at this level. He had a whole summer and preseason to figure this shit out, not even counting the two seasons of tryouts he has prior to this. This is all bollocks and fuck all.

Yeah, me neither.
Still too hot for my white taste buds
"If you're a younger player like a Kawhi, trying to pair him with LeBron James doesn't really make sense," Durant told Bleacher Report. "Kawhi enjoys having the ball in his hands, controlling the offense, dictating the tempo with his post-ups; it's how he plays the game. A lot of young players are developing that skill. They don't need another guy."
Durant also cited the relentless media coverage of James as a potential factor that might discourage a star player from joining forces with the four-time league MVP.
"So much hype comes from being around LeBron from other people," Durant said. "He has so many fanboys in the media. Even the beat writers just fawn over him. I'm like, we're playing basketball here, and it's not even about basketball at certain points.
"So I get why anyone wouldn't want to be in that environment because it's toxic.
But Fakers fans
"I love it here, man. I love my teammates, I love the city, I don't really think about anywhere else," Durant told Revolt TV in a recent interview. "I hear it all the time, don't get me wrong, and once you hear it you're kind of like [looks up, thinking]. But for me, I love staying in the moment, and I'm one of those guys that would love to stick it out with one team my whole career.believing a snake brehs.
Plus the 2nd guy to come over is either LeBron's whipping boy or his "little bro" that'll get a pat on the head. Kyrie wasn't about that noise. Kevin Love nearly bolted before being promised things would be different... and they weren't.
By Adam Go To PostBut Fakers fans
Lmao @ Durant calling it toxic. Durant is the most toxic personality in the league right now. Dude is in his feels for everything it seems.
Remember when everyone was like "Lebron would never be a Laker, there's no reason for him to go there". Good times those were.
lol kevin durant is actively sabotaging the best team we've seen since the jordan bulls and we're supposed to take him at his word around team chemistry?
Delusional Laker fans trying to console themselves. They get an out of prime lebron that finessed their team and all of a sudden they are entitled.
By HasphatsAnts Go To Postlol kevin durant is actively sabotaging the best team we've seen since the jordan bulls and we're supposed to take him at his word around team chemistry?How's KD actively sabotaging?
By HasphatsAnts Go To Postlol kevin durant is actively sabotaging the best team we've seen since the jordan bulls and we're supposed to take him at his word around team chemistry?In what way is he "actively sabotaging" them?
EDIT: dammit giri
By giririsss Go To PostHow's KD actively sabotaging?No commenting on his impending FA is one thing but having his business people essentially making overtures to the Knicks during the middle of the season feels a bit vindictive to me.
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostNo commenting on his impending FA is one thing but having his business people essentially making overtures to the Knicks during the middle of the season feels a bit vindictive to me.? His business manager has always been open about his desire to be the knicks GM, if that's what you mean.
And has NY based roots.
But i'm not sure how doing business deals in the "business capital of america" is much of anything for a guy who is worth ... what, probably the best part of 400 - 500 million?

I'm dying at one of the comments "KD gotta have the worst talent to Stan ratio of all time."

I need a warning or something if I'm going to click on a video and see Jorge Sedano. Of all the no talent hacks on ESPN, he's one of them.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Post
Data restricted up here, can't watch.
The best point I heard was that it's much easier to build around Harden/Capela than Harden/CP3, but they put all their money around Haden/CP3 and it opened up holes that are only going to be widened each time CP3 misses time or is slowed at all by injury. Keeping Ariza, letting CP3 go, and finding someone else to run with Harden probably would have worked better in the long run.
But whatever. Pretty much all the good teams are bad right now anyway. Rockets aren't all that weird.
