Spurs stay winning. Had no idea Robinson and Duncan came just for the message

Cavs just keep winning against the Kyrie and the Celts....

Aside from Kyrie and Love getting injured one year, LeBron is the luckiest player to dodge injury x injuries done to players on his team

Then he leaves Miami and Bosh gets diagnosed with heart problems 🤔

Brooklyn Nets guard Jeremy Lin suffered a patellar tendon rupture and will miss rest of season, source tells ESPN.

man that sucks

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

No one wants to watch the Bulls.

I do.
And will.

 

[StanleyStutters]

Just saw the Lin injury. Hope he is able to bounce back next year. Nets just can't catch a break.

 

[erlim]

There's a great Belinelli story where he goes to a all star game and before the 3 point shootout began he walked around the locker room and posed the most cocky of questions: "Who's finishing second?"

This is like every Michael Jordan story ever, he even treats his kids like that.

Got great seats for wizards pistons tomorrow.

god damnit. he's one of my favorite players to watch.

Danny furiously checking the paperwork to see if there was a "no tradebacks" clause.

lmao. just saw his stat line from last game. Yea, that's KI. Now with no Cavs and LBJ to cover his inconsistencies and idiosyncrasies with wins.

 

[Future PhaZe]

I'd actually be surprised if the Celtics beat the Sixers on Friday. Celtics too soft at the rim and Embiid and Simmons are a load.

 

[white dynamite]

From my brief googling, it seems like Lin won't experience long-term issues with his injury, unlike an ACL tear. He should just about make a full recovery.

 

[Rainy]

Just saw the actual video of JLin’s injury. Man his reaction...fuckkkkkkk.

 

[Bread]

Will the Celtics win a game this year? No. They're projected to go 0-82.


Danny was right to sell high on the Nets pick. Nets could win 6,7 games.

 

[-tetsuo-]

The video of Lin is tough to watch. He lands and just says “I’m done, I’m done” and he breaks down

 

[Gigglepoo]

If he had to do it all again, Kahn would still draft Flynn over Curry.

 

[LyleLanley]

C's drafting Porter and Doncic with their own pick and the Lakers pick.

afaik it's actually worse
remember Azubuike?

 

[redfox088]

Celtics will probably make the playoffs barring injuries

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Celtics will probably make the playoffs barring injuries

Yes, as long as they don't need Kyrie to average more than 4 apg. Because it's probably not going to happen.

 

[Bread]

Yes, as long as they don't need Kyrie to average more than 4 apg. Because it's probably not going to happen.

Yeah he's never averaged more than 4 apg before.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Yeah he's never averaged more than 4 apg before.

He doesn't have LeBron, Love and a bench full of 40% 3-point shooters getting open looks around him. So yea, he certainly won't this year.

If there was an over/under on KI averaging more than 4.5 APG this season, I'd bet the under hard. But YMMV.

 

[LyleLanley]

Jaylen's going to average 30+ points a game this year so it doesn't matter what Kyrie does.

He averaged over 5 every year before Lebron even came back...he just had 10 against the Cavs. This is a dumb ass hot take based off last night's game.

 

[Haloid1177]

This take. I like it.

 

[Sanjuro]

Jaylen's going to average 30+ points a game this year so it doesn't matter what Kyrie does.

Both of them are just going to get hurt anyway.

NBA will be a wasteland this season, filled with Globetrotters and Generals.

 

[LyleLanley]

He's a bust.

Come home Kyrie.

 

[True Savior]

Lauri Legend starts tonight.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Paul Pierce on Embiid: "I’m tired of getting a little taste of him. I want the whole load."

 

[Skiptastic]

Oh, and my Pacers are 1-0. As I predicted, they are much better to watch/root for without Paul George.

Agreed and always good to know about another Pacers fan on GAF.

The last time Pacers fans wanted "people they could root for", though, they were really bad. It looks like they are much better this time, which is good!

Should the Pacers feel good about putting up 140 or bad about giving up 131?

Yes.

Gonna be happy with any win the Pacers get this year even if it's just the Nets. Though I think we can steal a few regular season games against quality opponents.

Agreed.

 

[Cre8]

I blame Cornbread for all the injuries for choosing this ot "KD's chip, IT's hip, LeBron's Sinking Ship". Sounds like an injury prone season ot title......

I still can't believe Stephen Jackson was allowed to play in the league after what he did in Detroit. Dude had no idea what happened to Artest, he just ran into the stands and started throwing punches indiscriminately. I was fine getting Troy Murphy for him.

Man, that was a miserable time.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

B U S T

We'll take him back for IT + next years first rounder.

(I knew I should have said 2 APG so that the facetiousness was clearer)

We won't give up IT, he's already a Cav local legend. We'll take Kyrie for next years firsts though. Word in this thread is that he's a bust, so let's not give up anything..

Blame Ninja, he came up with it....


Of course, it's a friggen' Lakers fan destroying the Celtic's season.. It all makes sense now......

 

[StanleyStutters]

Danny was right to sell high on the Nets pick. Nets could win 6,7 games.

It's a masterstroke really. Hayward's "injury" is a massive ploy by Danny to tank this season away and end up with both top picks in next year's draft

 

[Kevtones]

Best rookie so far is easy:

Dillon Brooks:
29 minutes
19 points
5 rebounds
2 assists
2 blocks
4 steals

Not surprised at all.

 

[ViciousDS]

No one wants to watch the Bulls.

I do


I want to see what Lauri can do, he gets 8 games to start now and prove to Bobby and Mirotic they aren't even close to being the one who should start......its the Markster

 

[darkwing-buck]

Lauri is the white Porzingis

No it was knee the whole time.

 

[VeeP]

He's a bust.

He couldn't make that final shot on Lebron. Kyrie lost his closing powers when he left BeCleveland.

Just trade IT for Kyrie. Cavs will even throw in a European draft rights.

I'm just giddy that the NBA is back. I didn't realize how much I missed it.
