Official NBA 15-16' Season Thread

watching the mavs decimate the warriors was equally as insane, even without curry

 

[Del Rio]

I'd say Golden State was due another loss albeit maybe not a blowout, but Parsons and Matthews are starting to come around for the Mavs so perhaps they'll ultimately fight with OKC for the #3 seed.

Lakers on a 3 game win streak and just beat the suns by 20 is this real life

It's okay, we're about to face a stretch of schedule where we could conceivably lose 12 straight games. Nothing to worry about, our top 3 draft pick is safe.

its making me cry how close eastern conference is... About a week ago (ayy) my Magic were at 6th place, as I'm writing this we dropped all the way to 9th, holy shit.

Everybody says the Western Conference is so much better than the East but take a look at this:
Number of teams with a winning record:
East(10) West(6)
Cleveland Golden State
Chicago San Antonio
Miami Oklahoma City
Toronto LA Clippers
Atlanta Dallas
Indiana Memphis
Boston
Detroit
Orlando
Also, Charlotte is .500.

Oh, I completely agree with you. Sure Western Conference got a lot of the big time teams w. the Spurs and Warriors. Everyone sleeps on the Eastern Conference.

 

[Del Rio]

The West has been better (by far) for the past 5+ years, so a couple of months of the East having more .500 and above teams doesn't mean much. I will admit the East is closing the gap tho, it seems they're more well-rounded while the West is top-heavy

[Terrakion.]

Lol Jimmy Butler. That'd be the last name I would think to be up there.

 

[trikx_insane]

really surprised dwade / kyrie irving are the starters as of now over kyle lowry / jimmy butler - really dumb imo

 

[Terrakion.]

Just realized DWade is number 5. Is there anything special he's doing? Looking at numbers they seem average to me. All Star votes = popularity contest confirmed.

 

[Randombobman]

Haha no more twot Howard necessary any m9re

 

[trikx_insane]

continuing off the all-star subject, i was really hoping isiah thomas would make it to the all-star game. the dude has been putting up really good #'s with the celtics

He deserves it more than Kyrie Wall or Lowry tbh

 

[Del Rio]

Wade and Uncle Drew have no business receiving more votes than Lowry, Jimmy Buckets, and Pizza Guy

Nets fire Lionel Hollins and GOAT GM Billy King steps down, I wonder who would want to step into that disaster of a situation :l

 

[Del Rio]

Big Game Dame just violated my Thunders' D with like 4 straight 3s late in the 4th to steal a W from OKC. If there's still one thing holding this team back, it's their perimeter D...

 

[Del Rio]

This "Hack-a-X" thing is getting out of hand.

Full disclosure: coaches can do what the fuck they want with it as long as intentionally fouling is legal. While the Rockets didn't win, Drummond missed 23 free throws in that game. The strategy has had success, but instances such as "Hack-a-Jordan" and "Hack-a-Ian" have backfired recently. Again, coaches can do what the fuck they want as long as it's legal, just ruins the flow of the game

spurs warriors, best game of the season, ONLY available to watch through nbaTV.... ridiculous.

so of course the warriors destroy the spurs by 30. no tim duncan of course, but the gap between the warriors and the rest of the league is huge.

also, fuck all star voting.... how demarcus cousins THE BEST CENTER IN THE LEAGUE doesnt get to play in the all star game is beyond me. terrible voting system.
