DLO will eventually get traded. That was their plan till Klay returned and it still is. Don't tell me you think the Warriors won't be back in a year or two. We're giving the league a break. grin

The same people who laughed at 2012-14.

Started arguing that everyone knew Steph, Klay and Draymond will be all-stars.

They will change their opinions again.

They have started. Nobody wished ill on curry but you are indirectly wishing ill on others. So shameful.

I wished nothing on anyone. Only saying those excited should be careful.

Is there anyone who doesn't want to see steph get spanked all season? If anything he just got a "get out of jail free card".

I was actually referring to the guy who posted it here. True talk though.
Eruditor:


Lol. That someone got injured today does not mean others won't. That someone started bad does not mean they will end badly.

Some say hes soft or weak or he doesn't have "the killer instinct" for things like this. He's simply the classiest superstar of all time.
Patrick Beverly also tweeted. By your logic, he's in the same class with LeBron.

LeChina and his people though cheesy
Anything just tickles them.

Draymond and his stupid decisions sha.
But KD has to have the worst PR of any NBA I know.
undecided

Trying to stay relevant through the waiting period.

Not seen the interview though and I am not so sure I care.

You lot are just bitter and entitled and hateful and mulish.


I'm sorry did beverly play against steph in 4 consecutive finals?

Is this the first time lebron has done something like this? i wasnt even talking about this act i was just talking about his persona and who he is as a person.


Warriors fans have turned into pugnacious voyeurs. You hate to see it.

Yes he did.

Because you really think if Steph wanted to play Iso ball after Isoball he won't have great numbers?

When players around a system are learning it, it will always look off. But when they get it right, it will now be very hard to stop.
Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 8:31pm On Oct 31, 2019
I think we are all firing in different directions on this one. He probably thought I was referring to Lebron's post.

He is excited. The person who posted it here is.

Doesn't matter how hard you try to teach them that pack of bums on your roster aren't winning sh-t!

You're Kevin Durant now? If anyone is making threats on here, you taught them and not Kevin Durant. Let's not talk cyber stalking. Been here since like 2014 and not a single person made threats till Ersan came. Relax man.

CJ McCollum, Patrick Beverly, Dirk Nowitzki tweeted. It's a tweet please, let's hear word.

Like i said, its not just about the tweet.


Hating on others won't heal Steph's hands or Klays ACL or bring KD back or teach those scrubs how to play. Sorry dude, i feel your pain.

And why did he leave OKC? Players argue. That's what happened and he couldn't handle Draymond's comment which was the obvious truth. The Warriors won without him Draymond was at fault for his comments because they also needed him but it's KD, anything hurts him. Fans and Media resentment was the major reason he left the Warriors. Draymond's comment was just the easy answer.

While I agree that the fans and media hate was a key factor, I wouldn't discount the effect of what Draymond Green did on his final decision. D. Green's internal dagger was the wake up call he needed if the external hate from media and fans was not hitting home. I believe he mentally left the team that day.

SmooshCHN:
Not just japa alone. I'm also conscious of where I make comments about things like these. Like I'm just supposed to throw away facts and logic and agree with whatever you feel and identify with. Now we have Transage, Transrace, etc. TED Talk had that episode basically insinuating pedophilia is a sexual orientation and people shouldn't be shamed for it.
I'm trying to change location but this new nonsense is playing a big factor in my decision. This place has bleeped up my head enough. I can't jump to where I can go to jail for not calling someone by their preferred pronoun.


grin I can imagine. The scary thing is the movement is spreading like wild fire without let. Soon no place will be safe. It will become the new normal.

Does everyone realize that Tristan Thompson is averaging 20.3 points, 11.8 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game?

KD taking more subliminal shots at his warriors teammates. They asked him who his 5 favorite players to watch are.

Kyrie
Lebron
Harden
Embiid
Lillard

Seems the steph was a horrible teammate. cheesy

Kai, Seriously na now I know say KD na small pikin mentality full him head

An organisation gave you the chance to win rings back to back and cement your legacy as one of the best small forwards of all time and you smear them on social media (whether directly or subliminal). Na wa ooo. Talk about being ungrateful

Canelo Kovalev and UFC 244 this weekend. This is friggin dope!


My predictions

Canelo def Kovalev by UD

Garcia def Duno by UD

UFC 244
Masvidal def. Diaz by UD
Gastellum def. Till by TKO
Luque def. Wonderboy by UD
Lewis def. Ivanov by KO
Gillespie def. Lee by UD
Walker def Anderson by KO (Hardest to predict cause Walker hasn't faced top opposition but i will just jump on the hype train, though anderson may try to dry hump him to a win)

Canelo is a damn cunning opportunist

He knows kovalev is way older and well past his prime. Slower too (obvious in his last bout vs ward).

If canelo really wanted to prove himself as P4P king, why not fight Callum Smith or Billy Joe Saunders. Now, these guys would have been a real competition

Roland17:


Joel and his antics. I saw the game and fight..hmmmm, should I even call it a fight? It was more like a scuffle, a level higher than Gianis v Smart last night. Embiid has a bad rep in the league and people will go at him because he is not a good loser especially with his mouth. I just feel bad for KAT though, the stigma about his past with Butler will always be a trigger for him and I bet you Embiid mentioned something related to that.
The part I found amusing was Ben Simmons corralling KAT on the ground. There is clearly some underlying beef there as Embiid has made it his mission to go after every big at his position.

He did mention something related to Butler subliminally

I hope they don't get lengthy suspensions. KAT did swing and miss

LOL! Yeah Kovalev seems to be on a downward slope but its still a gutsy fight afterwards. Callum smith and billy joe (who stands no chance BTW) are super middleweights. Kovalev is a light heavy weight.
