The Official Offseason 2016-17 NBA Thread: Waiting for Preseason

Sleeves. Boooooooooooo.

This is not what MLK fought for.

Let our shoulders go! - Moses

Go Bulls!

But put me down for the T-Wolves too because of thibs and thibs alone!

Me as well…

Yea, I was never a fan of the sleeve look either, but apparently they’re here to stay so I accept em… I like the design tho…

Go Bulls.

Put me down as a fan of the Russell Westbrook MVP Revengeance Tour 2016, aka the OKC Thunder.

Sad to hear that about Bosh… Maybe Miami can set him up the way they did 'Zo?

My East squad:Bulls
My West squad: T-wolves.

New season just around the corner.

Put me down for the Sacramento Clowns…err…I mean Kings. If we can sneak in there at the 8th seed Boogie should win MVP. Yes my homerism is showing.

Go LeBron!

Heat already have 4 other power forwards.

There’s not going to be anyone reigning in Westbrook’s chucking tendencies this season.

He’s about to average 10+ assists tho. With about 9 of those being dumps offs to Kanter down low. Kanter’s never had easier buckets in his life last year. I swear he put up 18 and 10 every night doing no work at all :rofl:

So yeah, put me down for Westbrook averaging at least 25, 10, and 8 rebounds and Kanter averaging 20 and 10.

I do find it pretty funny everyone likes to rag on James Harden’s defense when Westbrook’s defense is just as bad, if only because his gambles on defense are dreadful.

It’s about to get worse this year when he’s going to have to carry that offense pretty much by himself. As much as I like Oladipo (who is just as good as a defender as Roberson IMO), that man cannot create his own shot reliably night in and night out.

LOL, Eric Gordon ain’t gonna like this when he sees it.

Hopefully my Suns won’t suck too much this season. It’s been so long since we’ve played after April and I don’t know how much longer the fanbase is gonna take it before they leave altogether. I can totally picture $arver moving the Suns to Seattle just to spite the fans who boycotted the shitty product he’s put on the floor the last seven year.

We back boys.

Atlanta Hawks will win next year with Dwight Howard. Bold prediction at the beginning of the year.

This year going to be cesspool of hate for GSW. This is going to be interesting.
I don’t see a finals where GSW vs CAV. Won’t happen now. No Tim Duncan. No KD well on OKC. GSW is unchallenged in the west.
The east is free they just have the TOR and who else? Obviously the Hawks but who else?

Also KG was a great player, personality, and good teammate. Awesome career he had.

westbrook gives effort
harden does not
dont put them in the same sentence defensively

im happy for last year that the cavs won
should be a great year and now the they will have another year of experience under their belt and play more free since they brought a championship to Cleveland

hoping they go the distance again but im excited for for basketball period

East team- Pistons
West team- Spurs

So which Knicks player will get injured and miss the rest of the season first?

All of them

Rose?
