Around the NBA - New Season, New Thread

(Not)sad to see another big ruined by the meLo curse

Did you know I wanted us to draft KAT badly until those dreams ended after the lottery

lol.
Better than me. I was pist we missed out on Jahlil Okafor

at least it wasn’t Winslow. He was the main guy I didn’t want at all. Okafor got drafted in the wrong era. He was a guaranteed bucket but he couldn’t move his feet on defense. His post game was probably the best I’ve seen by any prospect in the past 10 years.

do you remember rumors of the nuggets and knicks having talks centered around jokic + their pick for our 3rd pick? maybe it was just a nonsense rumor but i remember hearing it.

I don’t remember that

I’ll have to admit, I think we dodged a bullet by not trading for Embiid (he was never available either way). Getting called out by Maxey is crazy.

He was also a blackhole on offense. Bro averaged 0.9 assist per game in his NBA career

How

His post game was great but he was the antithesis of the modern NBA. Can't defend, can't shoot, can't pass, unathletic, is only good at posting up

The hype was real though to the point where I felt disappointed we fell to #4 even if my mind saw red flags all over.

[HEZI]

Hopefully the Celtics vs Cavs game doesn’t disappoint but it should be really good. East is so bad right now that outside of the Knicks playing this is like the only interesting matchup right now

I dont care about the Knicks anymore, I am just only interested in this epic downfall the rest of the season. It is an absolut blessing.

These are good for laughs

Great veteran leadership right there. As if that'll solve anything besides making the kid despise you for being an ass hole.

Can't say I'm not surprised that Embiid and George can't lead their way out of a wet paper bag. Morey is an idiot

Okafor was just a waste of talent. He actually had a nice face up game for a big man but dude can't read a defense or hit an open man to save his life.

If he was drafted like a decade earlier he would’ve been a multi time all star

I don't think so personally but I think would've had a role, as a bench player or as a starter on a losing team.

He could've been like a Eddy Curry on the court. Like with Curry, his defense would've been an issue, even in the older days imo. Both were talented scorers.

Yep. Honestly, I don't even have an issue with Maxey (or PG13 to an extend), but Joel on the other hand ...

Eddy curry was a guy who had issues off the court and he was notorious for showing up to camp overweight that led to his down fall. Don’t think it’s fair to compare him to that.

I think it’s likely he would’ve had a career like David west, Carlos Boozer. Guys who were all stars a couple times and were talented post scorers

I don't believe the Cavs at all. Early season benefits of having continuity. They are soft and we should have handed them their first loss. They will slow down as we ascend to the top of the conference. Orlando is a good young team but, I am not afraid of them either. It will be us and BOS in the ECF. BOOK IT!
