Is anyone else feeling like this LAC/HOU game has a different camera angle than normal and it's messing with you?

17th straight game with 10+ free throws for Harden

Anybody else having problems with league pass today? Interface seems to load fine, I can see standings, NBA TV etc, but when I click on the games tab I get the spinning cycle forever.
Nothing wrong with my pc, flash/youtube/kodi are working fine, and LP was fine until yesterday. Nothing wrong with my account either, I can watch on my phone, just on the pc it gets stuck.

Some combination of Hunter, Reddish, Donte, picks and Parsons to make money work. Still unlikely, but that's the route we'd have to take.

If you were the Hawks, would you want to go all-in on a Middleton/Young kind of team?

If the Bucks were in that position, this board would implode if we sold our young talent for a Middleton-level player.

I mean, no, but Schlenk did choose Trae over Doncic so

Which also makes Orlando a solid option if they're ready to bail on Bamba or something, Weltman/Hammond's seat has got to be starting to warm up a bit and could be motivated to make a splash.

Orlando is an interesting option.

Bucks win against Houston on the road is aging very nicely

I was hoping clippers blow it up last year and we get lou, clearly they had other plans.

How awesome is Lou Will? His progression over the years is also just incredible.

Show me one game where Kawhi doesnt push off his defender. Never gets called. Guess he is a gawd

Can’t stand watching him play. He’s Harden lite, there’s no way he should go to the line as much as he does. He’s a pretty **** player in the playoffs when refs tighten up on their whistle.

*sarcasm*

You say this after he drops 37, 10 and 6 (with 3 blocks) as the focal point of the offense.

I was going to say I think McCollum for Middleton made more sense back then than McCollum for Love, but I don't think I would make that trade today anyways.

I'd prefer the 6'8" guy over the 6'3" guy.

I’d prefer the guy you can actually trust to get a bucket in the playoffs.

That's Dame not Jaleel White.

Middleton has been better in that regard the last two years too.

On the Duncan/Hollinger pod, Nate was ripping Hammond and Weltman. Hollinger gave them an incomplete. Said they hadn’t yet gone all in on a big trade. Middleton to Orlando would be a total Hail Mary/save my job type of move. I’m just not sure what they have in assets that helps us more than Middleton.

So you hate watching Sweet Lou only but you loved and vehemently defended Tony Snell when we started him here.

Don’t see any comparison style wise between Harden and Lou other than being guards who run PnR. As far as the playoffs, Lou was incredible last year and almost led LAC to an upset over GS as their best player. Then you have his playoff performances when he was younger, but those are sorta dumb to use when you look at his progression and improvement as a player who just kept getting better every year and evolving. It’d be like pointing to Giannis’s playoff performance against the bulls his first time as if it’s even relevant to the player he is today.

Reseeding is a very dumb and bad idea.

Siefer · Post #118 » by **Siefer** » Sat Nov 23, 2019 5:34 pm

Dig the play-in, but down on the rest of it. Reseeding the semis in particular is really weird.

mattg · Post #119 » by **mattg** » Sat Nov 23, 2019 5:52 pm

Don’t like reseeding. I do like a mid season tournament with a huge cash prize for the winning team to incentivize playing hard as well as something like the winner gets home court throughout the playoffs. Make it meaningful.

Fultz, okeke and Fournier for Middleton
