Around the NBA '17-'18 Season (Non-Celtics Talk)

[Vee-Rex]

I get that Tommy's officiating complaints may be too "homer-ific" for non-Celtics fans, but the Cavs announce team is absolutely brutal to listen to....

Their play-by-play guy goes absolutely nuts every time someone makes even the slightest of plays and the color guy just mumbles the whole time and repeats the play-by-play guy's cheesy lines....woof.....I'd go crazy having to listen to them for 82 games.....

Thank god for Mike and Tommy.

I had hated Austin Carr's commentary for awhile and used to mute him all the time. He used to be the worst back during LeBron's 1st stint in Cleveland. Then Fred McLeod (the play-by-play guy) started going nuts around the time we drafted Kyrie (Convenient banking hours on a Saturday night (made bank shot)! Must have been a breeze in the Q! (opponent airball) There's Looooove in the air tonight!), and from there I just find both of them funny. They're hilarious to me now, mostly McLeod anyway. Austin Carr is a smart dude but he sounds like an idiot.

But I will 100% admit that they've gotta be one of the worst broadcast pairings (if not the worst) in the league. Gotta be nauseating for fans of other teams.

"Deep in the Q" is the absolute worst, childish, cringey fücking catch phrase I've ever heard.

It just keeps looking worse for Lonzo in LA:

Anthony Davis with concussion? What's the longest stretch of consecutive games he has not missed or not left mid-game? Dude is snake bit.

LA/Sac pick, Smart, Clips pick, Memphis pick to New Orleans

Horford to a 3rd team who sends an Asset to NOP

Davis to Boston

Kyrie / Roz
Brown / Semi
Hayward / Morris
Tatum / Theis
Davis / Baynes

Hayward is the oldest starter lol

If Boston is getting Davis, it is impossible for at least one of Jaylen or Jayson to not be included.

I **** hate Draymond Green. I find him to be the biggest bitch in the NBA. I get that he's a talented player, but just shut the **** up.

Sure but youd love him on your team though. Everyone had the same problems with KG. I have tons of non Celtic fan friends who hated KG for those same reasons. "Fake tough guy"... "only picks on smaller White players"... yaddy ya.. But we all loved when he's telling players that their girls taste like Honey Nut Cheerios.

Yeah I see it as different, I felt that KG was intentionally trying to rile his opponent up whereas Green just complains and bitches and really is upset in those moments. Just my take.

What if LeBron went to Houston this off season?

If there's anybody who deserves it, it's Embiid. Dude has been talking *** all season about other players and acting like clown.

Well i officially hate the 76ers. Their coach and gm don’t know how to run a franchise. They have ruined numerous young careers. They now foster an environment of s**t talking and bragging when they haven’t accomplished anything.

No, he's literally exactly like KG. Bitches more about the refs compared to KG, but he's the same sort of player. One that plays with an edge and has to play that way to be at his best.

He's all chummy with guys like LeBron in the off-season so clearly he's not being serious when he starts **** with him and others on the court. It's all in the heat of the battle.

He's a dick but I'd love for our team to eventually find a big like him.

Lol what are you even talking about?

Their GM is a clown yeah, but their coach has done the best he can with the talent he's had the last few years and now is coaching a team that plays really unselfish basketball and will be hard to beat soon enough.

What young careers have they ruined? Okafor was just never that good and was completely useless once Embiid got healthy. Carter-Williams was a scrub and Noel is a lazy pot smoker with a **** attitude.

Are you going to conveniently ignore how fantastic Embiid and Simmons are and how handy the likes of Covington and Saric are?

I was trying to come up with a way to keep them both and still get Davis. A long shot I know. If the LA pick comes in at 2 and we can find a team to take Horford (rockets who send Capella to NO) think its a possibility though. 2, Smart and Capella is a great package.

[Smeff10]

Lol lists out three top draft picks whose careers they ruined, then blame it on players. Their clown coach played an 8 man rotation last night this early into the season. When Embiid goes down with a foot injury we know why. They paid Amir Johnson 11 mil a year. They traded up to draft an overrated point guard with Simmons already in their squad. They then allegedly played him hurt until his agent publically called them out. They have a player openly calling for a trade, players around the league have called for his release, his dad wore a shirt that said “free Jah”. This is a clown franchise that is an absolute disgrace to the entire league. Their disgusting tanking over the past decade is beyond shameful. Because of their bill the league needs to change lottery rules.

KG was real tough though. Draymond is fake tough, I don't know if you've seen the video of him slapping the guy at MSU a year or two ago but Draymond barely fought after trying hard to escalate a fight with this random guy.
