The 2020-21 NBA Thread: Raptors in 7

Regarding the Beal/Draymond fight:

More proof that a lot of these teams aren’t standing for Warriors BS anymore. They aren’t scared of them anymore and not laying down anymore. Kerr told them teams were gonna come at their neck and they haven’t been ready. Even games they win they look real suspect.

This actually might’ve been the first Draymond incident which wasn’t his fault from the eye test. I saw nudge Beal a bit, but it wasn’t enough of a elbow to for all that. He must’ve said something to get under his skin.

The victim

Memphis is 5 and 1 with 3 big peices of thier team out…I know it’s early but this is usually when I get to complain about how short our roster is, but MEM has been squeezing out these wins…Green, Selden and Mclemore will only add weapons when their back…lol @ Parsons hitting 24 tonight on 9-11 shooting. do that again plz…thx

it all started a little before that rebound, Draymond had blocked Beal just before and most likely said something so after the board Beal probably reacted thinking the refs wouldn’t see and well you saw what happened

Simmons is ridiculous

Draymond should’ve body slammed his little ass. That’s why I like Draymond he don’t take shit from people.

both OKC and CLE are 3-3 lol

Nobody’s record will start meaning anything until mid-late November. That’s when the rust is gone and the chemistry should be up from however number of practices.

It would bring me GREAT joy if CLE is still a .500 team by then though.

People need to understand Cleveland is kust a bad built bad coached team. LeBron is the only reason they have relevance. Kyrie was smart to jump ship.

Yea, I was watching that game. Like I said, I just think dudes are tired of their mouths by now. It’s not the first time Beal had his shot blocked and been smacked talked to. GS is the stereotypical jerk star QB in high school. Everyone acknowledges the talent and skill, but they not only constantly remind you about it, they also arrogantly bask in it. Again, Kerr told them teams aren’t gonna lay down for them anymore and they don’t seem ready. When games aren’y going their way (ie not up by 15+), they whine and complain. The game Steph and KD got ejected, those were actually fouls - Steph was playing crappy defense and those were legit fouls. He acted like a baby when things didn’t go his way.

Other teams see that and are tired of the entitlement. Tired of the arrogance and they’re coming at GS.

Cavs about to lose again. No wonder super fan is so silent.

Bulls back to regular programming. Very good.

Hornets beat Magic who had been playing really well. Proud of Charlotte. Kemba even did the swaggy P shake

Knicks?!?

Hardaway showed up the first time all season… they need to make up their mind… you want this first pick or not?

Sooo is Magic getting a call from Cleveland tonight?

LBJ about to start doing his usual threats and ultimatums to the Cavs front office.

LBJ gonna demand Isaiah to the Knicks for Porzingas.

He can demand all he wants. No way that deal gets made.

Somehow willy is in the dog house so I would have no issue with the Knicks including him in a trade for bledsoe. Dude hasnt played any meaningful minutes and it doesnt seem like its going to change. Throw in the Frenchmen if they take the noah contract of the books. Add some suns fluff to make the numbers work.

Seeing the Cavs struggle does a heart good. I wonder who LBJ gonna sacrafice for his wants…
