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

[mister friendly]

Am I missing something?

The 76ers have Nerlens Noel, Okafor and Embiid and multiple 1st round picks and a potentially good coach

The Lakers have D'Angelo Russell and Julius Randle

The 76ers have Nerlens Noel, Okafor and Embiid and multiple 1st round picks and a coach who could turn out be good

The Lakers have D'Angelo Russell and Julius Randle

Lakers have a GM who knows how to build a championship caliber team.

76ers have a creep with a fetish for big men.

 

[xbiker47]

The wiping of his hand in utter disgust is the best part of the video

 

[kingjaffejo]

Its one thing to hate the Lakers ...but to go against common sense....my God

 it is what it is. 

 

[mister friendly]

The 76ers are collecting good assests, eventually its going to come together for them

 

[freeze]

Ah, if dude doesn't want to be a sixer , I'll take his place. I don't mind making millions of dollars losing 82 games.

ya heard me! we can go 0 for 82 and i'll look at you like that spits gravy.

 

[antidope]

Man the point is that there was no need to spit in the face of the team that drafted him like that. This isnt about the Lakers

 

[you go boy]

mad disrespectful how okafor threw that sixers jersey

 

[freeze]

lmaoooo homie on the left is priceless

'dang bro, that's how you gon do yo jersey? '

 

[Quincy McCall]

Richaun was like... but Jah! 

 

and the cameraman 

 

[lver of jordan]

[a-friend]

There had to be a chair or bench behind that table that he threw that Jersey on.
Look at dude to his right, he's about to drop the jersey on the same bench, just not in disgust like Oakhead did.

I hope He wakes up in the middle of the night with a Charlie Horse, for the rest of his life, punk

 

[freeze]

those are those janky t.j. maxx jerseys. he prolly threw it back in the cardboard box that was filled with them

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Tokoto was hyped to get drafted, was going to Banana Republic official fold that jersey

"Multiple 1st round picks". Worked out great for boston this past Thursday. What do you consider good assets? The heat and thunder are playoff bound. Lakers are a fringe team. Other than that their "assets" look exactly the same as they did in this draft for the next 5 years- their own 1st and a bunch of 2nd rounders they won't be able to give away. They have liabilities, not assets

 

[pmatic]

Does Morey still get slandered for stacking assets from 2009-2012?

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Did Morey have a bunch of second rounders and his team looking like a church league squad?

I mean this isn't really a wait and see, withold judgment type of situation. Hinkle has some type of strategy and due to either circumstances or simply a flawed strategy, hasn't been able to execute as planned. It's been 3 years in a row now

 

[pmatic]

He inherited a team with more established role players and kept accumulating them to accommodate Yao and T-Mac because his owner wasn't cool with blowing things up like Boston's and Philly's was.

But my point still stands.

 

[sea manup]

The 6ers and celtics are not going to trade a bunch of scrubs for a guy like James harden though

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Man the point is that there was no need to spit in the face of the team that drafted him like that. This isnt about the Lakers

Why are you this upset? It's clear that when it comes to team in major cities that there is a natural advantage over others. Of course when you're an organization like SA you have a buffer against this but obviously the NBA is full of teams that don't enjoy this and they are ripe for plucking when the time comes.

Not sure what your point is. "Morey did it too"? Not exactly. If they aren't the same quality assets you can't expect the same results. Also it's not just collecting (garbage) assets that make me slander hinkle, it's that on top of putting a joke of a product out on the floor. Morey and hinkle can't and shouldn't be compared, totally different scenarios

The 6ers and celtics are not going to trade a bunch of scrubs for a guy like James harden though

Or a guy like Goran Dragic. Or nerlens noel. Or Joel embiid. Or demarcus cousins. They are both fantasy gms that want you to trade Aaron Rodgers for rb2, wr3 and kicker

What?

The Lakers aren't no fringe team!

They be a middling lottery team barring some major free agent acquisition

The 76ers don't have any liabilities? They have cap room and prospects

Huh?

 

[johnnyredstorm]

You think free agents want to sign in Philly?



Ok

Sixers have 2 assets on board, Noel and Okafor. Embiid can't be trusted. Covington is decent.

That team is trash and run by a fool.

Lakers have Russell, Randle, Clarkson, cap space, the ghost of Kobe Bryant and an accomplished GM.
