[Vanillalite]

NBA been on the up tick this whole decade for me, and this might be the first year ever I'm MORE excited as a whole for the NBA season than the NFL this year.

Never thought I'd see the day.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

A big 3 no one ever asked for.

 

[manzoman96]

Let's go Sixers we going all the way

Spoiler

back to the lottery

this year WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

BREAK OUT THE SHIRLEY TEMPLES!!!

 

[Vanillalite]

Go Hawks.

Shoot the ball.

Score the points.

Haters gonna hate, but I actually think this trio could be better than what they had the last two years.

I like Teague and all, but Denis IMO has a hire ceiling. Plus Horford got dominated in back to back playoff years.

I think Al will be a good edition for the Celtics, but as for the Hawks I think while the record might not be crazy better that this squad will be.

 

[ZeroRay]

Go Heat :mjcry

 

[El Topo]

Go Mavs!

I hope Schröder reaches his potential. He had some amazing performances against the Cavs in the playoffs.

It feels like there are a bunch of young or pure entertainment teams this year that are just going to be fun to watch. Feels like a lot of teams have a shot at a decent year.

Even the Knicks or the Bulls, even if you think they will be garbage, feel somewhat interesting to watch.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

The Cavs-Celtics ECF will be ELECTRIFYING.

Calling it.

A big 3 no one ever asked for.

Paul's face is the painting that says a thousand words.

Yeah, CarMellow Anthony and Porzingis will at least make for a fun as hell 38-44 team.

 

[Nomadic Sparks]

So how long until Westbrook gets in a fight with like Boogie Cousins??

Spoiler

GO THUNDER!!!!

 

[jacobs34]

Who's in everybody's league pass top five?

For me it goes:

1. Warriors
2. Timberwolves
3. Trail Blazers
4. Thunder
5. Baby Lakers

Just outside the top five: Mavericks for Dirk, Bucks for Greek Freak at point-forward, and Cleveland for the second greatest player of all time.

 

[theWB27]

Quick reminder for all the new guys, we banned all Warriors talk from the NBA threads.

Is this real?

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Is this real?

100%

there was a vote

 

[Mortemis]

Is this real?

100%

there was a vote

I was mulling over voting against the proposition, but the lobbyists for the ban showed up with bam bam posts and I just couldn't vote against it with a good conscience.

It's for the best.

 

[ZeroRay]

Might get league pass for the second half of the year.

Top 5 would be

1. T-Wolves - I think we'll be seeing the beginning of something special
2. Rockets - Fun offense, D'Antoni/Harden defense
3. Bulls - The lulz, and my boy Wade
4. 76ers - The Process
5. OKC - Beastbrook

I'm gonna guess I'll have enough Cavs/Warriors games on TV to keep me satiated.

 

[LionPride]

LET'S GO TIMBERWOLVES! Win more than 35 games please

Only one person voted, but it was the only one that mattered.

 

[LyleLanley]

Only one person voted, but it was the only one that mattered.

I'm finally getting the respect I deserve.

 

[Bread]

Listen I understand why you would want to talk about the *******s but this is for the great or good. This thread cannot devolve into these awful discussions about "which team has the best players?" or "who will win the most games?". We all deserve better.

 

[LionPride]

#freetyus

Fuck Tyus tbh

 

[ryutaro's mama]

So he's gonna be trade bait this year?

Mayhaps.

Paul's face is the painting that says a thousand words.

This guy gets it.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Go Jazz

I hope the Lebron wins MVP and beats an 80 win Warriors team in the finals.

 

[BlackGhost]

Is this real?

100%

Yup, Things got pretty intense.

 

[Cooter]

NBA been on the up tick this whole decade for me, and this might be the first year ever I'm MORE excited as a whole for the NBA season than the NFL this year.

Never thought I'd see the day.

These are my thoughts word for word. Hell, I've even watches some preseason.

 

[Macadinho94]

THE NBA IS BACK TODAY #FUCKTHECAVS #DUBNATION #DURANTMVP #CHEFCURRY

[Bread]

Haha fuck everybody man Dub Nation forever. This season gonna be an 82 game orgasm.

How did that 82 game orgasm feel in June?

 

[Jay Shadow]

Haha fuck everybody man Dub Nation forever. This season gonna be an 82 game orgasm.

You'd think after last year Dub Nation would realize the season is actually 98-110 games long.

 

[trebbble]

Anyone know what night Drake Night this year is for the Raps? I'm selling some of my tickets want to make sure I don't sell that game by mistake

 

[BlackGhost]

How did that 82 game orgasm feel in June?

He never finished

 

[random25]

Fuck everybody. Let's go Pacers!

 

[Mr.Sumal]

Go Clippers... To a second round exit.

if you guys nab the 2nd seed then the WCF should be possible

barring any chokes of course

 

[Hyperactivity]

Gonna laugh my ass off if Warriors specifically try to go past 73 wins.

#1 seed and rest, that's how I'm going to call it

 

[Lee Chaolan]

He never finished

:jnc

Bonus points for the Sailor Moon usage

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Go Clippers... To a second round exit.

And the Sparks just hung another banner.

Kings
Sparks
Lakers

all have multiple banners at Staples. Stay holding that L, Clip Show.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

if you guys nab the 2nd seed then the WCF should be possible

Clips ain't grabbing the #2 seed in that West.

 

[captmcblack]

Obey PORZINGOD.

Knicks win 48 games.

 

[badb0y]

Y'all ready for the WNBA?

 

[Gully State]

Listen I understand why you would want to talk about the *******s but this is for the great or good. This thread cannot devolve into these awful discussions about "which team has the best players?" or "who will win the most games?". We all deserve better.

Who's got the sickest handles? The professor or Hot Sauce?

 

[LyleLanley]

I don't think an 82 game orgasm would feel good.

 

[Ronin Ray]

Go spurs go
