NBA Thread: Time to Get Buck

Now your Aaron Gordon 20 PPG prediction makes more sense

 

yes, but for who??

 

Whom

 

get a load of the grammar gestapo over here

 

Just drunk on Nugg hype for that one

 

Vogel to the Suns in a bit of a surprise based on some of the reports. Tough week for Trilly and Simmons

 

Simmons in the mud

 

The most basic, blah hire imaginable. Guess he could have surprised me the wrong way but this is just boring

 

Imagine firing Monty for Vogel

yikes

 

I mean that's not an exciting hire but he's a good coach. Pelinka served him a giant shit sandwich after the bubble.

 

lol Simmons was so certain. weird. Can't wait to hear him reference it

 

Vogel is fine. He won a title because he had a healthy LeBron/Davis at their peak, and then he got fired because those guys dumped old Westbrook on his lap and then kept getting hurt. He and Monty are probably in the same tier. It's just kind of a weird way to get there and there were rumors that they were going to hire their lead assistant because Booker likes him.

 

He’s a great defensive mind but he’s a zero offensively. Which shouldn’t be an issue with two elite shot makers but still. Also way too loyal to veterans, the Westbrook disaster was always going to seal his fate but his insistence on starting DeAndre Jordan and Avery Bradley when it was clear both were washed did not help his cause either

 

I don't know what to make of many of the decisions Vogel may have made because it's impossible to know how many of them he actually got to make. Same with Pelinka. That's just the way it is with the Lakers and teams with LeBron on them, for better or worse.

 

espn not doing it this time but Miami Cane/Heat media is. confidence from that small stretch to start the 4th which I wouldn’t completely dismiss but w Denver stretching the lead to as high as 24 points in the 3rd it is more likely it was a playing w their food stretch

 

who did he think it was going to be?

 

The good news is wearing this shit will get him hurt again with quickness

 

lmfao fuck this guy to hell. He’s the only athlete I’ll openly are laugh at when he’s hurt

 

Best comment: this video’s longer than your playing career

 

Playing for the magic is a very misleading quote there

 

just wait for the Unitus version of this commercial with Jonathan Isaac and Enes Kanter

 

Who?

 

Lmfao he linked a fucking PragerU video below his announcement. Irredeemable piece of shit

 

hope the Johnny u estate sues

 

Good thread

 

The Jokic tormentor?

 

I hate to say this

but can we just go ahead and give the title to the Nuggs so this thread can get a headstart in smug NCHusker for the offseason

 

I’m happy for NCHusker and brolift tho

fuck Corch and bro but especially Corch since his real team choked against the Knicks

 

Powerful reverse jinx attempt

 

You think I want the Heat to win?!?!?! The only redeemable person in that franchise is Michael Jordan’s son. The Nuggets are the lesser of two evils.

 

Tbf, a lot of quality nba coaches were up for grabs this particular cycle

 

corch is so dumb he will think the Nuggets winning is actually losing

 

Good one

 

If that's an actual quote, why would Danny Ainge talk on the record about the Celtics' coach?

 

$300M player

 

And shit on another coach in the league. By all account Joe isn’t the former asst who would’ve been the first choice for the job.

 

Guy is 26. As a non elite athlete I have no idea, but isn’t this fundamental something that you should be able to do by now?

 

He ended racism in Boston though

 

That would have been the Boston assistant that Ainge hired in Utah to be his HC.

 

Larranaga was another one that they would’ve probably preferred but he turned down an interview.

 

Feel like Ainge is throwing darts at some in the Boston media mafia
