Jaylen pls

Be nice

Tatum really is putting on a clinic out there right now.

 

[Tom Penny]

Not sure how good Tatum is going to be but fuck man. If you are trying to close a game he's an obvious ISO option. Nobody else in SL has hit a quarter of the crazy isolation and variety of shots he's hitting. Only thing I haven't seen is little floater in the lane.

It's crazy that he is already going to be an impact guy with his ISO moves and shooting stroke. He will be a great spot up shooter too.

 

[Cornbread78]

Danny did it finally?

Yup reminds me of when they could just dump it to pierce and let him work. I agree I'm not sure what his future is in terms of defense/efficiency and his ability to score against real defenders, but I will say his level of polish is surprising me despite the hype around it.

 

[Kickz]

And we're back to Dolan making personnel moves.

And I wanna diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie

Silver needs to make him disappear like he did the old racist Clippers owner

Already comparing him to The Truth? Summer league and all.

As the preeminent scholar on the Greatest Basketball Player of All Time, Paul Pierce, I can confirm that Tatum is literally Paul Pierce.

Yeah like how I said I'm tentative on his ability to convert in the NBA and also be efficient. I was saying he has the ability to just get the ball and iso in those late game situations where the celts have struggled to get baskets if IT wasn't going god mode.

Where does David Griffin come off thinking he should have the option of overhauling a front office that produced 1 playoff win in 17 years?

I hate the Knicks so much. I've lived in this city so long and every year they do dumb shit. Hard to watch.

Lol. It's funny because I may live in NH and work in NH, but my "office" is in Penn plaza, so I'm down there at least once of twice a year and I've always wanted to swing next door and watch a game at MSG, but just nope... not worth the tix price, lol.

Remember there's always room on the Sixers bandwagon

We're only a train away!

Doesn't the Sixers bandwagon have a couple of bad wheels?

lmao jaylen not making eye contact with the man he just killed

 

[TTG]

So is he the really the next Melo then? I assumed their draft picks would determine their future, Horford and Hayward are ancillary even if they are under enormous contracts.

i mean lets wait till the regular season starts first but yeah so far he looks good

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I can't believe Jayson Tatum is going to have to wait until after the Finals next year to accept his ROTY trophy. Just hand it to him now.

 

[Lionel Richie]

Can we begin calling him Jayson All Day Son Tatum?

 

[Cornbread78]

Poor kid is gonna have a giant target on his back all season with this talk..


Acela Express #2052 or 2048 off the top of ny head. South station Boston to DC, with stops in Route 128, Providence, Stamford, Penn Station, Newark, Phili and DC, lol.

Yea, Jaylen needs to chill and let him have the starting spot

 

[Cornbread78]

Hmm..

IT/Smart
Hayward/Brown
Tatum/Crowder
Crowder/Morris
Horford/Baynes

Yeah, this could be a fun show..

 

[Gigglepoo]

I figured Smart would start so they still have a perimeter stopper out of the gate.

 

[LionPride]

I still can't fucks with Tatum

It's a plus he ain't lookin like straight ass in SL though

 

[FZZ]

This really is a strong draft class

I know Tatum has been doing super well

But DSJ man...

 

[Frozenprince]

It hurts so baaaaaaaaaaad.

Can someone out James Dolan as a racist piece of shit already?

MAMA THERE GOES THAT MAN

DSJ is who I wanted if we couldn't get Issac so I'm highkey annoyed

That's an impressive fake contender right there.

Seems like a list full of number 1 seeded frauds.

Cavs in 5

I only expect fun from them, lol. Lebron & Kyrie are going to take half the year off as they cruise to the finals..

 

[True Savior]

Cavs in 5 if Isaiah gets hurt. It's a sweep if he plays.

Btw, if I search for Isiah on google it asks me if I didn't mean Isaiah. I find it disrespectful.

 

[panthapanda]

Hawks 1st pick John Collins has been looking pretty good in SL. He won't get many minutes this year (unless Bud magically starts playing rookies or injuries) but he's shown a jumpshot and is super athletic.

Prince looks like he's forcing things but Bembry is looking a lot more comfortable. Still hasn't shown a jumpshot tho...

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Cavs in 5 if Isaiah gets hurt. It's a sweep if he plays.

what's up with JJackson and missing dunks?

It's all over, he's a bust! It's those T-Rex arms...

Tonight we are gonna witness some ass eating

Let's go Zo

 

[Tom Penny]

Harden is making 500k per game on his final year confirming I'm a poor 0_o

 

[Servbot24]

I'm willing to play for 50k per night.

Or 5k per night.

Or .5k per night.

 

[Line_HTX]

I'd like one year's worth of that Harden extension, hahaha

 

[Servbot24]

I bet I could outplay James Harden if he came down to my YMCA. I made ten 3-pointers in a row once, so... yeah, that was a thing. Seeya James.

Same here, we can take him. Let's get this paper bot

 

[Servbot24]

I'm literally an inch taller than Steph Curry. This league doesn't even know.

 

[Lionel Richie]

So, the Suns re-signed Alan Williams and they have Tyson Chandler for the next 2 seasons. Does that mean they might be willing to trade Alex Len (I know he's a RFA, but maybe a sign and trade)? I know it's very unlikely but I would love to see Danny explore that, the Celtics need a rebounding big, the Suns have 3, so that sounds like a fit, right?

Sounds good in theory, but all indications point to Danny being done with the Aussie lumberjack signing.....
