THE 2015 NBA PRE SEASON THREAD: BEST WISHES TO LAMAR ODOM

[noblekane]

For those of you who watched the BET awards.......my favorite part of the whole show was.....

"Ladies and gentlemem, please welcome NBA legend...........
























Kenny Smith!!!!"

I literally spit my gatorade all over my coffee table! Easily the biggest lulz of the show for me.

Only reason people know him like that is cuz hes on inside the nba

You tv has gone to its lowest point when kenny freakin smith has his own reality show

 

[mister friendly]

I don't have any problem with Kenny Smith being known as an NBA legend

@ThompsonScribe: Warriors, Draymond Green looking to get a deal done Tue to keep him off market. He could take below max to help Dubs http://t.co/AOxNLyLn1i

tbh I'm not sure I even recall you posting about it 

I have over the years. I thought you were on here since the early 2000's? I use to post about alot of personal stuff alot of it as i look back was quite embarrassing.

I guess that was when niketalk didnt remember everything like they do now

Nah, I started lurking around 2004ish, and then finally got rck2 in late 2005.

I feel the same way about posting personal stuff, flashback a few years ago and it was embarrassing.

Now I pretty much only post things I would have no issue saying out loud 

.... which I realize, it makes me seem insufferable IRL

thank god he's staying in GS, plays his role perfectly

i think he'd struggle with any of the other 29 teams

If the Lakers sign Aldridge does that mean they plan on moving Kobe to SF?

PG-Russ
SG-Aldridge
SF-Kobe
PF-Randle
C-DJ

I wouldn't eem be mad at that.

But yes, the plan is to move Kobe to SF.

 

[buc em]

Cavs sending Haywoods contract to the Spurs?

Patty Mills raining down 3's for the Cavs would be dope

That would be an AWESOME move

I was hoping Orlando or the Knicks gave him 150 mil and he's never heard from again

 

[awwsome]

That's g.

No it's not, it's just stupid on his part.



Nothing honorable about taking less than your worth in business, GSW wouldn't if the situation was reversed.

Highly doubt that, elite defense/bball IQ/ballhandling @ your position don't just go away because you leave a team.

 

[glennvagmire]

Well he's just a role player and will always be a role player. He can fit on a lot of teams. Not all but he can.

Teams for example


OKC
HOU
MEM
SAC
SAS
WAS

 

[antidope]

That Draymond Green move is unexpected. He should go take the money depending on how far off the max he's going. Not everyone needs to win man, most people dont, but throwing away money that may be hard to make back is crazy to me.

 

[silverbackhoney]

man draymond staying in golden state must've cost you another 150 e-bucks

 

[ny mavurs]

Draymond taking one for the team

I think LeBron is just going to keep on signing one year deals to put pressure on the Cavs year after year.

 

[diewitsjames]

Dray mind got his ring.

He should get paid.

But he prob knows not every situation is like GS.

 

[Moheezy]

Who do you guys think should be traded from the sixers bigs and what are our available options?

I'm lost

If the Lakers don't have a realistic chnce at winning a title next season, why wouldn't you guys root against them again? Get another top 3 pick while the young guys get a year under their belts. Hope kobe retires and sign a big name player next offseason.

I may be mistaken, but don't the Sixers have the Lakers' pick next year, I know it was top 4 protected this year.

If that's the case, then yes! Would love for the Lakers to go top 3. The Sixers could use another Centre.

 

[mister friendly]

Draymond Green figures it's worth it to take less money to avoid the risk of getting exposed on a new team.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Exposed as what? He's a great role player and shouldn't be expected to be anything more. And I don't mean role player in a negative way

They have the pick but its top 3 protected which why its more likely the lakers wont suck enough to keep it unless the nba rigs the draft ala the cavs with wiggins

As fars a trading big men i think the sixers will trade embiid for whatever they can

Exposed in what way? He's a really good player, GSW is just the perfect fit. 

 

[bballkid11]

I do not really think "less" money will be huge pay cut at all. No way they Low-Ball Dray.

 

[$tacy]

Better than signing with a team like NY. Him as a 3rd/4th option > as a 2nd option
