    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    Its not just that. I'm sure all the KD drama has taken its toll as well and they are less a team for it. There's this expectation that KD is gone but they'll definitely win another title before it happens anyways, not so easy.

    Ball wasn't a bad #2 pick and the Lakers really didn't have any hope to trade for AD during the season because NO will have more offers this offseason.

    What did Magic do to destroy that team? He took over the shitshow I think a year after they had already signed Deng and Mozgov to those horrid contracts. They obviously made the no brainer move to bring Lebron over given the chance, and it was also the correct move to not sign any 3rd or 4th...

    Have held strong to boycotting Civ 6 purchase. But on the subject of Civ's not being good until expansions, ehh. 1 and 2 were instant classics out of the box on day 1. Sid Meier would have never released the crap that these guys are allowed to release with. Debatable how much of that is due...

    College Basketball 2018-2019: Duke > Cavs?

    Mostly just watch college hoops to see the top draft prospects now, or if my team happens to not suck. But overall college hoops just aren't that good in comparison. I'd rather watch mediocre NBA games over all but the top college hoops matchups with top prospects. NCAA would be so much more...

    Its what the NBA has become but it doesn't mean small market teams can't succeed. The Pelicans are in the same boat as MOST other NBA teams period, not just small market teams, they are not the minority. Most teams have to do well in the draft in order to succeed. Not just in a single year...

    Eh. Lets remember, the last time something like this happened to the Pelicans it was Chris Paul. He wanted out, they weren't going to get much value back. In fact they got a complete shit sandwich, probably worse than what they will get back for AD. Eric Gordon, Chris Kaman, and Aminu. That...

    Dead until the Knicks win the lottery and trade Zion to them. That's NO's best hope to jumpstart things. Not like they've been particularly alive while AD has been there anyways.

    Kyrie wouldn't be part of the trade because NO knows that they're in the same situation with him as they are with AD, he wouldn't stay and becomes a FA even sooner. Brown, Hayward, Rozier is horrible value for AD. Brown's value is no longer that high. Decent player but the further he gets...

    Return of discord?! I'm sure its not, but I've always thought a perma death TLP server would be super interesting. That's what I think of when they say "hardcore," but yeah they probably just mean relatively slower exp and standard rules.

    I really don't like CP3 and his antics, but lets not go grouping him with Melo somehow. At least CP3 plays his ass off and tries to help his team win whenever he's out there. He wants to win, very badly. He just can't stay healthy (yes, a bad signing for that reason). Melo doesn't give a...

    IW is more rewatchable for me than all of the above. Love everything about it. The tone, the good feels scenes, the bad feels scenes. The team vs. Thanos fight on Titan is also about my favorite from any superhero movie. This movie has everything. Ragnarok is very rewatchable too but I...

    The running joke is that net fusion is always a decade or two away, because there has always been somebody saying that pretty much since like the 50's.

    To some extent, which he should be cause he's playing a lot of minutes right now with some straight up D-leaguers out there. But we also don't win last night without Klay going off for 19 in the 4th q.

    Nahh, they were just in a rough spot with all the drama. The depth is looking pretty slim at times now, but they're still a top 4 team even without those two. Time to start cutting the Damian Jones charity minutes and give Bell more minutes instead. Klay and Durant both forgot how to shoot...

    College Basketball 2018-2019: Duke > Cavs?

    He and Zion both look legit as fuck. I'd been wondering why Duke wasn't ranked #1 when the consensus is that they have 3 of the top 4 players in the draft next year including the undisputed top pick. Don't think its ever happened. Closest thing you can remember to that is when AD and MKG went...

    What has Naomi Watts been in lately though? I mean she still gets steady work, but as the lead lady in something memorable? If its a good show I don't see why she wouldn't consider signing on long term. Especially with all the hype and money that will be there for something GoT related.

    I'm mixed on that idea. Its hard to believe after all the flack he's gotten for joining the Warriors, that he'd want to go join the Lebron in LA where he'd probably keep getting flack for joining up with the other top player in the league on a team stacked with young up and coming talent. Why...
