I see bant to and fro in respect to curry Current Season, I really don't know how hard it is for people to comprehend the addition of Durant to GSW will obviously affects his output, being a team that shares the ball a lot. Sigh
It's KD for crying out loud, one of the best player of our Time, It's not tristan Thompson ooo. grin grin

The embolden is what upsets me the most. The choke job is the reason for the elevated level of nonsensical debate. Truthfully, i don't trust they would not choke again, they are playing with this sense of entitlement that worries me. D. Green is the player that scares me most, i worry he would fall prey to a similar situation like last season with his antics and lack of emotional control.

The only result that would compensate for last season's choke job would be to sweep the Cavs in the instance they meet again.

This arifin is entirely their fault, and their fans have to accept responsibility for this nonsense rather than being defensive about last season.
Lol they played like they didn't believe they could lose till they did. I think this year would be different if the Warriors meet the Cavs, they have been humbled just like the 2012 Heat. They would beat the Cavs wella. The main issue is the damage has been done already. It would take a sweep with like 25pt average for the Warriors to redeem themselves

What is this I'm hearing about the Celtics wanting to trade Smart & Crowder and a future pick for that Ycee wannabe Jimmy Butler. It would be a massive, egregious and unbearable mistake.

I agree with you but butler is not bad tho....

Boogie would have been perfect for Celtics.......

What they need is a bit of patience. They are very close to challenging at the top of the East. This move would all but destroy it because Butler's addition would not put them over the Cavs this year. He has badly declined defensively. It would also hurt their depth and ability to compete next year

They are in a good position....they are 2nd in the east.....butler may disrupt the flow in the team but i still believe Boogie would have been a perfect addition for the celtics to give them that cutting edge because they need an all-star Centre......

Woulda been more fun if Boogie went to OKC

They seem like similar players with the same skillset only difference Boogie being a better passer and Davis a better blocker. They are still going to need Holiday to make this work. The trade is far from a slam dunk IMO

LBJ fanboys always trying to compare him to the god tbh. And you guys are like the Red Army so that says it all

our enemies are many lol

It is amazing how Lakers have cratered especially after Jerry Buss passing. Kupchak has some blame, but I cant help but think the rest of the Buss family forced him into some foolish deals, including overpaying for an aging Kobe. Still, owners dont get fired...lets see how long Magic lasts. This is going to be uncomfortable undecided
Re: The NBA Begins by realnas(m): 11:37pm On Feb 21, 2017
Jena buss embark on a serious house cleaning exercise first kupchak was shown the door now Jim buss will no longer serve as President of basketball operations wheww looks like its going to be the magic show all over again

Will he be a starter to help Harden or be used in the bench with Gordon?

It seems more complicated for me

probably a starter, who plays the two for them right now? Gordon should be left on the bench.

Jimmy Jimmy is overrated imo.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:39pm On Feb 22, 2017
The Celtics are always going to be associated with rumors relating to movable superstar free agents. I don't think we are actively looking to trade for Jimmy, we hold the aces in every consideration. I would rather PG13, than Butler, who has declined this season, and as record shows disrupts locker rooms.

The deadline is tomorrow, i would rather we head into the post season with the same roster, than trading for Butler and losing some important pieces.

One of Smart, Bradley or Rozier would inevitably be moved in my thoughts. I hope its not smart, because he has had a terrific season on both ends of the court, and needs to be rewarded for the massive improvement to his game.

Truthfully, i would not mind Brook Lopez of the Brooklyn Nets, i understand his trade demands have been lowered by the Nets. He can offer us interior defense and offense, only lag is the fact that the Celtics play with pace which Lopez may struggle with during transition offense/ defense.

If Paul George can't get the pacers to the Playoffs in the east, how is he going to get the lakers to the Playoffs in the West if the lakers are in a win now mode?
