NBA News & Notes

I believe his contract stipulates he can’t be traded until sometime after January……

It’s October 12th as I said

Edit - Weird. I originally thought it was Jan 15th like you said but saw it listed differently this morning. Just searched again and you’re right

Anunoby for Ayton? Who plays center in Phoenix?

The Dubs never really had a center

I’m interested in that Cunningham/Ivey backcourt.

Ivey looks better than Cunningham right now

If Cade is who I think he is (more Middelton/Iso Joe than Luka), they are actually a really good pairing. Two guys who could be primary and secondary initators and play on and off the ball

olynyk really did this in the preseason

 

[Sir'Dom Pointer]

Sorry, but refs are even more of a joke so far in this preseason than ever. It's really insufferable.

They are trash and the reward for going inside and fall down or at this point just going inside and get a foul called is huge. If you fall down? automatic 2 FTs.

What do I have to do to watch a normal game where teams can actually play and the game not stopped every 14 secs?

Stars are obviously rewarded and can just chuck away and get to the free throw line anyway to pad their stats and get into rhythm. I'm looking at Lillard, Tatum of the world. But now even scrubs are getting the treatment.

Argh. I want the NBA to be called how it was like a year ago at the start of the year. It was amazing. Silver is such a fraud man...tried to trick us earlier last season. Fuck this guy. Give me Stern.

 

[cavsfever]

Agree completely. Also, if the refs keep calling touch fouls on drivers and shooters like they did late last year it’s going to make Mobley’s defense less effective. He was most effective early last year when they weren’t doing that and he was actually being allowed to defend

Fuck. I wrote such a long reponse and i accidently went back to the previous page and so it got deleted.

Sorry. It was a good one I swear.

Dyson Daniels going to be a very nice player for the Pels.

Ivey is going to be a major problem for the Cavs every time they play Detroit.

I mean, so far the early returns for the guys that some of us likes are looking good.

Detroit do not scare me at all. Cade bogs down their offense.. he looks even slower this season. They need a better PnR partner for their ball handlers. Duren for Stew is a must for them. Still, they have a lot of holes to fill. Rockets scare me more. But not really... They have no one that can guard our guards.

 

[Sir'Dom Pointer]

Trae is a stain on the game. Refs and him should get married and leave us alone. Flopping bitch.

That's the one thing about you posts, dude, I never really know how you feel.

How do you think I feel?

 

[Blazie]

Sorry, was just appreciating your take on Trae, with which I happen to agree...

... but suddenly maybe I don't care anymore.

guy is a grade A bum, really busting against g leaguers.
