NBA 2017-2018 Season Thread

I dropped Lauri Markkanen in fantasy and I want to kill myself. It was like 2 weeks ago.....for Tyler Johnson after his 39 pt game. Shame.

I still have th ebest team in the league at the moment and I have Mirotic who was killing it so I figured I could move on with him. But I fail.

I don't think I've been this impressed with a rebound in awhile. That was unexpected...

I'm starting to think Lebron has to go everyone is getting sick of his drama, damn the repercussions... We'll see how I feel about that during the playoffs.

I'm not a Lebron fan, but dude, you NEVER get rid of the talent in the NBA. You get rid of those around him. What changed so dramatically that the team is imploding like this?

What is it now?

It's not even a now thing it's how it's always been. It's just worse right now.

All the offense goes through Lebron. Every play every night. When he's on the bench the offense has no idea what to do. Lebron ends up getting pissed and the drama starts... it's all downhill from there. It's like the offense is built around him bringing his A game every night and when it doesn't they crumble. I feel like his role in the team and his ego are so BIG he can't draw up plays where he's not first option.

Yeah the Cavs have some gaps to fill, but I'm just sick of hearing him cry. If he does leave I pity the city where he ends up. Be ready to bend over.

Isiah should be able to fill that role easily when he's on the bench.

For sure. Kyrie should have been able to as well. Last year with Lebron on the bench KI was -120 +/- in 635 minutes.

I love it. I think it's hilarious. High entertainment value.

Wtf was afflalo's problem? He took a full on swing and just barely missed. Should be worth a good suspension.

lol that tall dude coulda snapped his neck like a twig if he wanted to. Afflalo is a fucking thug and needs a good suspension for that shit. He pushed him like 2 times before swinging at him.
