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

[Vincent Van Goat]

Jason Kidd was 38 and putting up 8 and 8 a night.

His contributions were great but let's not be stupid now

You're really going to be the judge of being stupid? OK fam 

 

[licensed to ball]

Ya solid move for a guy that was strictly just consolation, makes 15 million to put up 6 and 8 a game

You gotta spend your cap somehow.
No one else left in free agency, his contract has 1 year left so it'll be valuable at the trade deadline, plus we might get a pick out of it... So....

Dallas fans:

"LMA coming home to Dallas"

"Rondo will be OK here in Dallas, just give him time"
"DJ has the guards who were throwing lobs to Brandan Wright, DJ will flourish, Wright wasn't throwing lobs to himself"

Ouch

Lets not forget dallas fan with the devean george appreciation thread

 

[Quincy McCall]

Hibby vertically going West

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Dallas fans acting like the Mavs won that ring in spite of Jason Kidd

So disrespectful and downright ignorant

Almost as ignorant as their steadfast defense of the Rajon Rondo deal. While everyone saw that it wasn't working out, they would have bet their pink slips that Rondo was going to click 

Par for the course

The last thing I want is KD going to the East

OKC better handle that.

Soon...

Hibbert is that missing piece... Russell Clarkson Kobe Randle Hibbert.. Who gone stop that? Finals is a strong possibility

Willie Beamen  @Loco_57

We gotta be realistic... Hibbert isnt Shaq, but he is the closest thing to him... All Hibbert needs is a winning franchise.. LA is that

[rolaholic]

Can't wait for LA fans to start hyping up Mr trashcan

No I'm correcting you cuz you said the Knicks had won in this century. How you forget so quickly? If I was schooling you I think you would've learned at least that by now.
My dude if you don't know what the word century mean and use it correctly that's on you Talking about taking it literal, who the **** uses the phrase "in this century" as some colloquialism?
I don't give a **** about any of that corny **** you spewing. You the one that brought it up like it was relevant. You just mad NYC is called the Mecca of basketball. That's not my fault.

Century means 100 years. Doesn't have to be 1901-2001. It also applies to 1904-2004 and beyond. So I'm correcting you. Usually when I say something crazy Nelson, Shoeking or someone will let me know. They didn't even say anything.

You win champ. NY is the Mecca and the Knicks are awesome. There happy? You can let it go now.

Man what is the Lakers projected starting lineup looking like right now?

Lakers are awful defensively. Hibbert should help... A LOT. Bird trolling him in the media and a new team is more than enough motivation for him to go back to DPOY level Hibbert. That's assuming Kobe doesn't destroy him.

 

[pmatic]

Man what is the Lakers projected starting lineup looking like right now?

Hibbert, Randle, Kobe, Clarkson, Russell at the moment.

ROY IS OFF THE TEAM I HAVEN'T BEEN THIS HAPPY IN A MINUTE. 

Damn I feel sorry for Lakers fans B yall got a hot sack of ******* garbage 

. Great on D but that's literally it b. No energy, no diving on the floor for loose balls, dumb *** fouls, turning down layups, pulling up for J's knowing damn well his shot is garbage. Man I'm sure as hell not gonna miss his dumb ***

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Lakers are not even gonna be that bad. Probably will make the playoffs as a 7th or 8th seed. Dudes would be a 5th seed in the east

 

[nick.]

@WojYahooNBA: Lakers take Hibbert's $15.5M salary into space, likely send combo of 2nd round pick(s) and overseas players rights. @JeffZillgitt first.
