i miss the jailblazers
Surprised Miami is gonna pay Tyler Johnson 18M/19M in the final years of his contract
Me
>>69453662
well he is young and the heat need to keep young talent around and develop them. they cant offer much else to big names
>>69453433
Dannyboytbh
>>69453779
Yeah he has talent and potential, but committing that much money to him is crazy if your miami imo. Especially when you know Riley is gonna go swinging for FAs in upcoming free agencies. Made sense for the Nets to take a gamble since no high profile FA is gonna consider them in the future so you can afford to overpay him, unlike miami
what do i know though
10th for /pawg/
>>69454489
That's the point of the Nets doing it, though. Either they get a potential future young piece or they force another team to fuck their future.
I wanna eat that pussy but I just can't
Thicc white girls are the future

Nets bid on Crabbe has been thwarted -- and Crabbe returns to Blazers on four-year, $75M contract. Now, Nets wait on Tyler Johnson sheet.
Lol the celtics fans must be so happy right now

emory's got good taste, looks like she could by my thicc ex gf's sister or cousin
who else /thicc/ here?
>>69456169
Yes I am. fuck the nets desu until 2019
>>69454814
Yeah, as a Nets fan I'd perfer that they get him though
>>69456140
JUST
Portland is gonna have huge cap issues down the road though and they have to pay CJ and possibly Plumlee next season
Wait who's Emory
I must have missed it
>>69456169

Word.
Feel bad for the Nets.
>>69456269
>emory pulled a thick girl and i cant
Do i need to scent my dick with hot dog scent to get these chubby bitches to suck my dick or what?
All i want is a white girl to sit on my face desu, she has to be thick enough that i can barley breath
>>69455741
Who's the girl?
>>69455719
>Damn Meyers leonard, 4 years 41 million
Super comfy.
Now they can offer Harkless about 8 per and match the Nets offer for Crabbe
i feel bad for the nets
>>69456754
This chick got fat tho
Did you watch scream queens
>>69456882
Is harkless good? Will the blazers have enough to sign cj?
>>69456974
They were fucked before and they're fucked now. They should have chased big names by offering ludicrous contracts imo. I mean, why not pay Dwight the max for three years?
>>69456501
Hes milanafag/kawhis hands
He's IRL friends with the copycat curryfag

>>69458167
he's not milanabrah because I'm milanabrah. he could be kawhi's hands idk

Shes a hardcore nazi feminist too but she'd get it up the butt in the name of Hinkie
>>69458470
Nigga drafted Jaylen Brown
>>69458479
how are you, milanabrah
>>69457506
Because they have Brook Lopez already
They offered Marvin Williams and Kent Bazemore contracts and they both took less to stay with their former (at the time) teams
>>69455741
the cropped version is still out there though, I wonder why it was pulled.
Why do you guys have webms of a namefag that posts here. This lore is too deep for me
>>69456169
wtf is portland even doing? They just spent 36 million on evan turner and allan crabbe
>>69458167
That blonde chick died of leukemia pretty sad
>>69458646
Because they could have flipped Brook Lopez for an asset.
>>69458593
p good, about to go for a run because I've just been watching wimbledon/soccer all day. Murray looks legit, Anderson is too fucking slow
>>69458741
>I wonder why it was pulled.
polka dots
>>69458741
panties. Can't really even see her ass either. imo dumb reason to take it down
>>69458167
Wtf
When did all this Emory shit happen
I guess I'm not a lore master :(
>>69458741
Becky probably got teased by Tony Parker for her sexy panties
>>69458757
In Portland's defense, they thought they were tanking last season and instead ended up being unexpectedly good with a fuckton of cap space that they had to use up somehow.
>>69458873
anderson is hella slow yeah. did you see that one fastbreak? slowest fastbreak on earth. slowbreak. still like the dude.
>>69458453
Wow I am retarded. I completely forgot
>>69456453
>Portland is gonna have huge cap issues down the road though and they have to pay CJ and possibly Plumlee next season
CJ yes but Plumbdog could be let go if ezeli can stay healthy. big IF though.
>>69458976
He followed Hinkies account or favorited something he posted, then trip stalker exposed him and his grandma face gf
He moved to the uk cause he lost his job any Uk poster here might be him
>Albert Nahmad @AlbertRandom1 1m1 minute ago
If Heat match the Tyler Johnson offer sheet, Nets would have $35M of cap space.
HELLO DUMB CONTRACTS TO FUCKING BUMS
>>69459089
I really like him too, I just don't know how viable his offensive game is gonna be this year when it's his third year in the summer league and he still can't consistently get by his guy. he settles for stupid ass fade aways a ton. Diaw was a fat turd but he was at least nimble. Simmons still seems dumb as rocks. I'm really liking what in seeing out of Murray tho, even if he's a decent work in progress. His handles too loose
>>69459089
i really like kyle anderson, he's slow as fuck but that doesn't stop him. fits really nicely on the spurs.
>>69459207
emory moved back to the us

The bay area is a manlets paradise, Emory is only 5'4
WOuld you rather your team signed Dion Waiters for the Max, or your least favorite team to get Russell Westbrook on a team friendly deal next offseason
Was today the soccer equivalent of LeGod getting one for da land?
>You're a Lakers fan anon? But aren't the Warriors a lot better?
>>69458817
They can still manage to do that regardless if they signed dwight or not. Some team is gonna get desperate at the deadline and probably ask the Nets about Lopez (maybe PHX since they've been fishing for a star player for awhile now).
Nets are better off throwing max money at young guys like Crabbe and Johnson who have the chance to improve their game, not Dwight who's gonna be on the decline.
>>69459051
they used most of their cap space to sign evan turner. Signing crabbe is gonna put them over and they still are gonna have to pay mccollum next year
>>69459967
he's gotta have some type of swag. I bet he's a really chill solid dude to hang out with
>>69458479
>>69458873
Hey man, remember when you got BTFO last season?
>16-0
That was pretty funny. Losing to the Clippers and the Thunder back to back years.
>>69460373
Or a monster dick
>>69457035
>Is harkless good?
He showed a lot growth at the end of the year. More confidence on both ends, especially defense and rebounding, and he can guard most positions making him really valuable to the Blazers defensive schemes.
Will the blazers have enough to sign cj?
Bird rights and they'll max him out.
>>69459360
yeah that's what happens when you pick in the late 20s or trawl the d-league for guys. forcier leaving for orlando might hurt the spuds more than we think, he was their primary player development coach. murray really needs to tighten up his high dribbling and his loose handles yeah.
anderson has to carve out his own niche i guess. accepting that he's slower than molasses can turn into an advantage though, sometimes people just can't figure out his timing and end up half a step off where they should be. no idea. we'll see. if simmons works out nicely as an athletic energizer and fifth wingman on limited minutes and a dirt-cheap contract, all is good.

I don't care about Brogdon or Vaughn, I was asking about Thon.
>>69464407
If the team you don't want to win wins, it's rigged
So the league has rigged against the wizards since the 70s. It's fucking bullshit. How dare they.
>>69464407
its not. If the league was rigged then large markets like LA and NY would have winning teams but they dont, they have shit teams. really shitty teams with almost no hope of being relevant.
>>69464470
Don't impersonate me and be rude fampai
>>69464407
It's not rigged, there's some influence the league has on the officiating but it's not biased towards any team. If it was rigged the Lakers and Celtics would be in every finals forever

>“Two words: Ruben Patterson. It was 2001, my second year with the team, when he was brought on. Everyone knew about his past; he was a registered s3x offender for the attempted r*pe of his kid’s nanny. These guys wouldn’t let him forget it. The worst was Shawn Kemp. At least two or three times a week, Shawn would bring in a briefcase full of pictures of his kids’ nannies. I’m talking hundreds of pictures of nannies, each one of them different and extremely graphic. Shawn was even in some of them. He would just dump them in front of Ruben’s locker and usually say something like, “I would’ve run train over your nanny.” He even snuck out of practice once when Coach Cheeks wasn’t paying attention to fill Ruben’s locker with nanny pictures. Thousands of nanny pictures came pouring out. I had just a.ssumed Shawn went to take one of his customary coke breaks, but this almost sent Ruben over the edge. At this point, Shawn became legitimately concerned for his safety. He even sought out extra security personnel for himself and all of his kids that he knew of.”
Lakers?
>>69465914
>“One time Damon [Stoudamire] caught Ruben jerking it to a Victoria’s Secret catalogue. The guys wouldn’t let him live that down. He was Lubin’ Ruben after that. Rasheed [Wallace] and Zach Randolph were relentless. Those two made his life hell, calling him Lubin’ Ruben every chance they got. Ruben once told me he was contemplating “taking them out in front of everyone in the locker room,” but I talked him out of it. I told him he would probably miss and hit Steve Kerr.”
>>69466066
>
“Darius Miles. Where do I even start with him? He got it pretty bad too. There were multiple times that Rasheed would run into the locker room completely nekkid, point to his genitals, say “Look, the second biggest bust in the room!,” and then look directly at Darius. Zach and Derek Anderson thought this was the funniest thing. He once even did it on the court when Coach Cheeks wasn’t looking. Come to think of it there were a lot of instances in which Coach Cheeks wasn’t looking. He was oblivious. Try imagining having Stevie Wonder as a basketball coach. That was what it was like.”

>“For the most part, the veterans weren’t subjected to this type of stuff. Pippen, Kerr, Arvydas Sabonis, Dale Davis; these guys were respected. Maybe Rasheed would call Arvydas “Saboners” every once in a while, but it wasn’t anything he couldn’t handle. However, the worst incident I can remember involved a respected vet. In 2002, some of us were in the gym before practice when Zach and Jeff McInnis got into a shouting match over hookers or something. This type of stuff happened like every other day so most of us just ignored it. Zach just lost it and fired a 5 lb. plate at Jeff. He missed way high and hit veteran center Chris Dudley in the back of the head. He had no idea what hit him. Zach actually felt pretty bad about it; Rasheed thought it was hysterical. Duds was out cold and we had no idea what to do. Antonio [Daniels], Arvydas, and Ruben Boumtje-Boumtje carried him to a massage table and laid him face down so anyone who saw him would just think he was waiting to get a massage. I had about 20 or 25 extra headbands in my locker so I just started wrapping those around Chris’ head to try to stop the bleeding. He woke up about 30 minutes later wondering what happened and why he was wearing 15 headbands. We just blamed it on Lubin’ Ruben. Duds was a real team player and didn’t want this to be a distraction so he just let it go.”

don't get angry with me because she's moving to an undesirable destination for monetary reasons

Wade was mad lol. He used the money as an excuse and for miami to match Chicagos slightly better money offer they would have to either trade a promising young player or add them to a mcroberts trade to unload his contracts. Every team knew the situation and bascially used the leverage agaisnt the heat to get back ransom.
Still though i miss wade, this could have all been avoided if they didnt go on this retarded durant chase which they had no business going on.

Free agent guard Aaron Brooks is in advanced discussions on a one-year deal with the Indiana Pacers, league sources tell The Vertical.
Simmons is a bust
>>69472500
Nah, he was a high value first pick because you can't teach his skills.
You can teach someone to be an ingram, and they will hit it eventually. Most players cannot learn the type of ability Simmons has with controlling the flow of the offense.
I think he's a very Rondo-Rubio type player right now, you can't teach those skillsets, and hopefully he can learn a jumpshot and surpass them.
SIMMONS MADE A JUMP SHOT
I REPEAT
SIMMONS MADE A JUMP SHOT
SIMMONS IS GOAT FUCKING CONFIRMED
>tfw locked yourself into a defrozen max deal right when powell breaks out as a star player
>>69472711
Having Derozan is better than not having him, because at least now that's he's signed they can trade him for pieces if they want
If they just let him go where's the value in that?
Uncle Drew part 5 starring LeBron when?
>>69472226
Well he's also 6'10 which almost automatically makes you a better scorer from the range that both rondo and simmons will be taking their shots
i was going to shitpost about how the lakers are going to dominate the next 10 years, but whats the point, you all saw the game, you all saw brandon ingram dominate the #1 pick...i don't even have to post it, YOU ALL KNOW HAHAHAAHHA

>You just don't get it, do you? Diaw going to the Jazz is an abomination, and as much as I love the organization, I'm very disappointed in the Spurs. Diaw is a renaissance man, fluid in motion much like the brushstrokes of Sandro Botticelli. He needs culture to thrive. San Antonio was/is that culture. Diaw will now regress into the irrelevant societal throw away akin to Christian Boltanski in the ghettos of France. The Spurs bring out the pure essence of men (and women) that allow them to circumvent through the impure intricacies of the universe. I hope the Spurs reconsider their moves from here on out. I love IPAs. I crochet my skinny jeans. I am a Spurs fan.

>In our contemporary regressive society that is rearing its ugly head, mainly because of Drumpf being the catalyst, it's nice to know that there exists a progressive entity to battle these scary times for the underprivileged. The San Antonio Spurs, whose players, coaching staff, and front office all sign contracts to vote for the most progressive policies in relevant local and national elections. In fact, myself and Pop sent a couple emails back and forth discussing the geopolitical ramifications of a $15 dollar minimum wage, and he piqued my interest on some legislation that was being proposed in my local county court. You see the barriers being broken by the Spurs by the hiring of Becky Hammon, a female, and paying her the same rate as her contemporaries. In a business of primitive male chauvinism, the Spurs are a beacon of light in the fight for gender equality. I am a Democratic Socialist. I fight for marijuana consumption rights. I am a Spurs fan.

What did you mean by this?
>You know, it's a wonderful thing to be able to discuss the Spurs and life in general with you guys here on r/NBASpurs, and I'd like to add to our beautiful journey together with a personal story. I was sitting on my balcony, enjoying some Chi Tea (I heard on Grindr that Chi Tea is not mainstream, and is a treat for any foodie). I saw the sunset and couldn't help but look inside and see my wonderful family there on the couch. Kymberly, my wonderful wife, who has loved me ever since I can remember. Ashton, her son, who is a delight. And T-Smoke, Kymberly's boyfriend. T-Smoke and Ashton are huge Spurs fans, like me. Though I think T-Smoke just appreciates the dunks and 3 pointers, and gets lost in the x's and o's that I love. I'm sitting there just thinking what a wonderful impact on humanity the Spurs have. A tight-knit family like ours can be happy and share a common existential escape. One time, Kymberly told me to babysit Ashton while her and T-Smoke smoked crack cocaine (I was a little dubious of that, but T-Smoke promised it's just as safe as weed, which I don't think is true, but I would never whitesplain to an African-American). So Ashton and I watched the Spurs game. It was the best time of my life, and I was hoping that if Ashton had a good enough time, I could finally make love to Kymberly, my wife, for the first time. We didn't and haven't yet, but watching Timmy and Pop perform their craft so masterfully with my wife's son was more than enough to satisfy life's desires. I was against the Wall Street bailouts. I love Bernie Sanders. I am a Spurs fan.

>As most NBA fans know, we Spurs fans understand the culture that comes with signing a contract here in San Antonio. A player, coach, training staff, or even front office must be conscientious of history's greatest atrocities (nothing beats the holocaust), and must apply that empathy to today's issues. Before you walk into the AT&T Center, the ticket taker gives you a pamphlet of the #ImWithHer campaign, which makes my heart so warm. Hillary is the Popovich of American politics. Cunning, masterful, deceptively and humorously classy. It really warrants the question of tempering or handicapping* competition so that all is fair. All the starting rotation and most of the Spurs bench are voting for Hillary, as they are progressives. The only holdout is Kyle Anderson, who is voting for Jill Stein, which is acceptable, as she is a women as well. I have a red beard. I vape. I am a Spurs fan.

Was Boban the best free agent signing of the offseason? He was literally the third best player in the NBA last year by advanced metrics. Can't believe the Pistons got him for only 7 million. Really think they should start Boban at center and Drummond at PF for a dominant defensive frontcourt

Yes, if the Cavaliers win another championship this semester.

Devin Booker is so fucking fat what the hell? He's also pretty ugly
I just got this random thought in my head... I think Manu was waiting to see if we would sign Durant. He would come back if we didn't, and would leave if we did. Patty and Bobo are very close friends of his and if we sign Durant both might be leaving. Him leaving would free up a small amount of money too.

He did really good and is a great prospect, especially as Backup C.
>>69474486
Shut the fuck up you obviously don't know anything about basketball. Okafor doesn't score off assists you dipshit, anyone can give the ball to an immobile target in the post or at the elbow. Simmons' passing ability does NOTHING for Okafor. It makes Simmons redundant. Do you know who Simmons would help? The player that actually moves without the ball and can jump higher than 2 inches. Okafor can't even get up for lob passes. I'm sick off all these jabronies with inferior basketball intelligence @ing me all the time just fucking stop.

Great. He has all the tools to succeed in the new meta of basketball.
Pace and Space offense and already a very good 3pt shooter.
He's a bit of a screen baby but so is curry and he's done pretty well.
He also has a chance to be a good 2way player if he actually learns to play fucking defense because he actually has the size to be really effective guarding either the 1 or 2.

6. Iggy quick corner 3 bricked, rebound James, fouled by Curry
7. LeBron becomes 3rd player in NBA history to have a finals Game 7 triple double, Kevin jump hook, no good
8. Barnes to Green, open 3, too strong, LeBron tells everyone to back off it and let it go out
9. Kyrie drives, hopstep, misses, rebound by Iggy
10. Fast break begins, Iguodala to Curry back to Iguodala, up for the layUP-OHHHHHH BLOCKED BY JAMES!!!
11. LeBron backs into Iggy, inside jump hook, too short, Curry rebound
12. Curry quick three, well contested by Irving, doesn't even hit the rim, Cavs TimeOut
13. 1:09 remaining, Irving gets the inbound, Curry switched onto him, Irving puts it up, ITS GOOD!!! KYRIE IRVING FROM DOWNTOWN!!! (92-89 CLE)
14. Curry's heart ripped out by Love, Love stays right on him step for step, forced to take bad three, brick, rebound LeBron.
15. Kyrie goes on a fast break but finds Love, Barnes fouls LeBron at a horrible time to give Cavs 3 extra seconds. Kyrie backcourt inbound, Irving drives full court, to LeBron for the GREATEST DUNK OF ALLLLL TIMEEEEE- Fouled hard by Green, LeBron goes down hard on his wrist and is in pain but gets up. Missed first FT, rattles in the second (93-89 CLE) 10.6 seconds remaining
16. LeBron says "One more stop, one more stop" Klay catches on the inbound, well guarded by James, to Green, fouled 6.5 seconds remain. Curry gets for inbound misses the three, rebound tipped taken by Speights, up for the shot at the buzzerrrrr- "ITS OVER ITS OVER! CLEVELAND IS A CITY OF CHAMPIONS AGAIN, THE CAVALIERS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS! Final (93-89 CLE)

Agreed. If Ainge was hell bent on taking Brown he should've traded the 3rd for PHX's picks and drafted him, Chriss, and all his European "projects".
who are the best gold players in 2k16? have Ben Wallace, John Wall, and Klay Thompson starting right now
after the first few couple of games, who do you take?
chicken tender or jaylen bruise?
>>69475760
Frankly, I dunno what the fuck Danny is doing anymore. Not trading down for Brown, signing an old fuck to a max and then not getting the prime FA target, not replacing Turner (unless he expects Rozier to do it...), letting go of Sully for nothing, not going after a rebounder until now... This FA is panning out horribly.
>>69475825
They had to sign somebody and Horford was the best available. The odds of getting KD were never good. No point in resigning sullinger when we just got Horford and signed amir back, also all these rookie and sophomore forwards they have can play. Rozier has improved and will be much better this season desu
>>69475774
cry more, bitch nigga
>>69475862
My point is Horford at max between 31-35 or however old he is <<<<< Sully for 1+1 or something of the sort. Sure if you -had- to take the risk in Durant signing him is acceptable, without him the signing is horrible. The youngs can play but they're worth nothing, otherwise they'd've managed to make a move for Cousins or Butler or whoever.
Dunno, feel like the team got worse and the cap space is vanishing.

I disagree. I think Horford was overpaid, but not as overpaid as Conley. Horford is objectively a much better player than sullinger and can do literally everything just as well or better. Sullinger hasn't shown a lot of improvement and can't lose weight, and he also played bad in the playoffs. The team is better this season. Danny probably did screw some shit up in the draft tho.

I posted a thread on /r/nba about Randle vs Jokic and all those nerds just shat on Randle for having bad advanced stats or whatever, then the cuck mods deleted the post, this is why I don't go on reddit usually and stay here. Here's the post: https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/4s93k3/whos_has_a_higher_ceiling_nikola_jokic_or_julius/

if they get a top 2 pick again this year, the lakers will really have something cooking.
if they don't, they'll have to be very fortunate with some trades, because randle and russell really don't have the ceiling to be starters on a championship team.
i like their team energy right now, and they're a likable bunch, but just being real.
>>69476037
id quit watching sports if this happened, this teaming up shit has to stop. they should change the rules where the top picks have to stay on the team they're drafted to for a certain amount of year, or two all starts maximum on a team, so that developing a bench becomes more important...
>>69476103
>because randle and russell really don't have the ceiling to be starters on a championship team.
>>69476091
wtf? why are people acting like nikola is better no contest? randle is objectively more talented albeit a bit more raw. randle's ceiling is way higher.
>>69476091
They are all right for the most part. Randle is never going to be the player Jokic will be.

blame the owners for shortening contract lengths to save their own ass, players used to get 7 year deals that preserved continuity in the NBA.

this needs to come back, longer contracts. Because if they do fuck up, they would need to focus on making it owrk instead of buying a new team. Cough cough** warriors,spuds, bulls, clebeland**cough cough.

>>69476065
We're going to have to disagree then.
Sullinger is 24, Horford is 30. Even accepting Horford's better right now, he's only going to get worse. Also, he can't rebound. Sully got stuck playing the 5 for years despite not being one and was exposed against a faster frontcourt. Horford averaged 3.5 boards in 4 games vs the cavs. That's the center now?
>>69476185
do you really believe this? baka @ you morons just parotting what you here on epsn. probably never even watched randle play
>>69476217
When it comes to Randle? Yeah, I guess if someone is a casual and think Randle is good just because he averaged a double double then they might think he is more talented.
>>69476220

there is no point. but in the infinite universe, and in the billion years this planet has existed, you are a living being. you have essentially won the lottery by being alive. a lottery whose odds of winning are incalculably small, approaching infinity to 1.
you can do anything. and because we all end up in the same place, there is nothing to fear.
find meaning in other people and your relationships.
treating others with kindness and love will bring it back to you, which is as much as anyone has ever really needed to feel like their life had value.

they really dont. i can see them as bench players possibly though.
>>69476259
I think you're overreacting to his contract. He can rebound he averages almost the same as Sullinger. He can guard definitely guard 5s better than sullinger. He just turned 30 and he really has another 2 years of prime before he degrades. His game isn't heavily reliant on athleticism.
Still tho I agree to disagree

>>69474486
Good fits for Simmons are elite jump shooters, slashers, and bigs who finish above the rim. Embiid should complement him. Okafor's post play, not so much... unless he becomes automatic from 10-17.
>>69456163
Emorys kind of a qt3.14 not gonna lie.
>>69476339
Averaging a double double as a rookie isn't impressive when the points scored to reach that double double are some of the most inefficient points in the league. Any bad player that happens to be decent at rebounding can average a double double on inefficient scoring if they play enough minutes. Randle only played a lot of minutes cause he was drafted high and the Lakers were tanking (he helped them a lot there btw).
>>69476154
>there's no difference between joining and building
>>69474841
Agree. Starter on a bad team or fringe playoff team, no more than that.
>>69476388
> a player who can rebound, handle the ball, finish at the rim through contact, and has potential as a shooter isn't potential
>>69476405
westbrook was SUPER innefficient as a rookie. he turned out ok. its because he was a fucking ROOKIE you nigger
>>69475825
Rozier's looking good. Don't like the C's, but like his game a lot. Feels like he's going to make a jump this season.
sup, remember me? how easily you forget. Give me randle before simmons ANY day of the week. guarantee you we win 9/10 games
mfw RBL is getting stronger
r8 my gf's ass
she's a cavs fan desu
her favorite player is jr
>>69476436
But Randle wasn't just an inefficient scorer, he's an awful defender, a careless player with tunnel vision and no awareness of his capabilities. To put it simply he's a really stupid basketball player with short arms. Even his only "strength", rebounding, isn't even that good because he barely gets any offensive rebounds. There's just nothing all that good about him.
>>69476383
Averages almost the same but with a lot more time on the court. Regardless, there's something about Sully they're not telling us. The guy must be a headcase or he pissed off the wrong guy or something.
>>69476469
Yeah, looking good in the summer league, sure. But that's usually the case with 2nd year players. Dude can rebound and is pesky on D but his offense vs NBA talent remains to be seen, as well as the ability to ballhandle. Truth be told, tonight the SL team looked bad on offense without him playing the point and the result speaks for itself.
>>69476485
>short arms
>>69476506

Man that sounded gay as all fuck. Sorry, Roze.
>>69476511
>stubby-armed down syndrome looking abo
>>69476511
It's a good thing the Lakers drafted Nance, he's already better than that bust. Randle's double double he averaged last season will be the only one he averages in his career.

did someone shave his eyebrows when he was sleeping?
>mfw i want Randle to get traded
what the fuck I thought the short arms thing was just a meme, is this photoshopped?
>>69476394
I disagree because I'm saying anyone who CAN score is a good fit with simmons who is a challenged scorer.
Even if most of his passes end up to cutters and shooters, as the roster is now their scoring is looking pretty grim.
omfg, you guys really are casuals, i will admit he wont be number one option on this new reloaded lakers team, BUT! he is an elite piece with skills that will be proven very soon to be highly coveted by the league, trust me, i've watched him this whole season, he's my favorite player, he can handle the ball better than most on a fast break which is a perfect fit for lukes system fast paced offense. he can pass the ball of a rebound, similar to what kevin love does in the cavs except its a chest pass, also he runs the floor like lebron, he wears opposition down low in the post. he is EXACTLY the perfect definition of a power forward. you guys just..just dont know the game bros. im sorry.
>>69476552
did someone shave his eyebrows when he was sleeping?
he does it himself
>>69476506
I think it just came down to the fact that he didn't get in shape when Ainge basically gave him a pretty public ultimatum before the start of last season. Unless something crazy happens then it's likely Zeller comes back on a 1 year qualifying offer and he and Mickey split the minutes of Sullinger alongside Jerebko with Horford and Johnson as the starters.
And I really do hope Rozier is able to fill the role that Turner played this year. There's just no way that Smart will ever be an effective primary ballhandler and I think he's destined to just become a shittier version of Shumpert.

but smart is already better than shump
>>69476579
>trust me
>>69476625
this is actually true, and Marcus Smart is my least favorite player in the NBA
/nba/'s obsession with the Lakers is getting weird. how can you hate a lottery team that much? Seriously! did they touch your peepee when you were little?
>>69476605
I remember that but then again, if a guy produces (and he was by far the best big on the team) does Ainge really care that much? To not even give him a 1 year deal/QO? And that doesn't even explain how apparently nobody else is interested in him. Gonna put on my tinfoil for this one.
We'll agree on Smart being the point. I don't doubt his leadership skills or passing ability but his handle isn't all that and fuck, guy can't get past anybody on offense, it seems. Way too slow. Still, i'm holding out hope he turns into a (efficient) 15ppg poor man's Wade with better D.

>>69476625
His 3 point shooting is really weak and he takes some of the dumbest shots though. Seems to get tilted way too easily too, especially in the playoffs. Dude flops like a dying fish and then loses his shit when he doesn't get the call as a 2nd year player.

The Lakers were second to last in scoring. No else on that team can rebound. Randle was the only player that averaged more than 5 rebounds(he averaged 10.2) on that team. Hibbert averaged 4.9 rebounds and he is a starter. Randle is a meme and has peaked. Only a delusional Lakers fan would say otherwise.
>>69476696
I don't doubt that something else might be up. I know there were some instances here and there where Sullinger moped about getting benched so it could be that Ainge and Stevens just don't want to put up with it for just 12pts and 7 boards a night. Could also be that his back is acting up again and that might be what's scaring teams away similar to draft night in 2012 when he fell to 21.
>>69476742
>tfw kelly was better than sullinger all along
