I hate the Golden State Warriors with a passion. Corrupt NBA and their refs won't let any other team win the chip this year.
I will be rooting hardcore for the GS Warriors to lose from now on. The NBA is a rigged sport.
On a side note, the Nuggets need to trade Will Barton as soon as possible. Barton is ruining team chemistry with ball hogging, ISO plays and chucking. He belongs on a tanking team, not a contender like Denver.

I love watching GSW when they get hot tho. It's a very unselfish team. And they gave the Nuggets a proper ass-whoopin last nite. It was a message to the rest of the league. I don't wanna hear any more about Denver until we hit the playoffs.

Not NBA, just pure enjoyment of flight by a six footer from two angles.

It’s a little early to call Ball a bust. He had a solid rookie season. One thing that jumped out when I took a look at his stat line was the 40% free throw percentage. He doesn’t attempt many free throws but still that is pathetic, most middle school, jr high and high school kids do better

Ball is no bust. He will be a solid player in the league for a long time. And his intangibles are great. He seems to be a good teammate who makes everybody else better.
But, Lakers fans always massively overvalue their young talent. I'm sure future hall of gamer Andrew Bynum is going to develop into better than Shaq any day now. He's only 31!

^^^^ Bynum was a beast before his injuries. Unfortunately the problem with guys his size is their more prone to injuries. I really worry how long Emiid will survive, hes already dealt with a few.

Ball would probably go 5-8 in a redraft.. 2017 is one of the better draft classes of the decade. But he definitely needs to ditch the BBB shoes.

After going 32-8-8 the game before, Luka Doncic went 35-12-10 yesterday and became the first teenager in NBA history to drop 2 triple doubles in a season and the first teenager to reel in a 30+ point triple double. And this was against Toronto, a top 5 team and a great defensive team.
He's having without a doubt the greatest rookie season of this decade and it's laughable how little hype he's getting from the (((media))) compared to the attention lavished on Lonzo Bust's anticlimactic flop of a first season.

AD to the Nuggets?!
Quote:Quote:
New Orleans has options right now. The Lakers, Knicks, Bucks, and Raptors are expected to make trade offers for Davis ahead of the deadline, according to multiple front office sources. To some degree, every team will at least consider making an offer. But the Nuggets are considered by front-office executives as the off-the-radar team that actually has the assets to complete a deal, should they choose to enter the sweepstakes.

The friends I have in the FO are completely silent about AD - this means they are exploring a trade.
I also think the team came out flat tonight against Memphis because everyone is nervous about being moved.
I don't think we make the trade - but I'm pretty sure that TC will flirt and see what it would take to get AD. I also think the FO is figuring out whether AD would sign an extension upon arrival (and the answer to that is basically "no").
Just say no to AD.

Lakers Rumors: Klay Thompson Interested in Signing If Anthony Davis Traded to LA

Lakers would be a real contender with that big 3... plus GS would be a a lot less dominate if they lost Klay and possibly KD

The nba is fast becoming like la liga in Spain. Where 2-3 teams have the stars and the rest are just playing instead of competing.
No more salary cap penalties. Have a hard cap and not a penny more can be spent. Personally I like to see a healthy league where all teams can compete using coaching, strategy and not a fat wallet to buy players. I love seeing a team like the bucks compete against the big market teams.
The NFL minus the distractions has small market teams competing with the big market teams. The green bays, pittsburghs and the like can compete with the Chicagos and the new yorks. Not just for 1 - 2 years but for several. I would love to see the NBAget to this point.

GSW already leads the league in luxury tax, how high can they go?
Draymond and Klay still have to get the big payday and Steph is underpaid and will need that money back at some point. KD and Boogie free agents. How much can ownership handle ? They are on track for a $200 million luxury tax, with payroll included would put ownership coughing up $400 million on payroll inclusive with the tax.
You have to guess these owners didn't get rich being stupid there has to be a breaking point which is why many say that these contract window will undue the core of the Warriors.
