In which the NBA is discussed.

[badfo]

• Andrew Nicholson MVP
• Nick Young on the Lakers is perfect
• Shaq has Charlotte making the playoffs in the east and the Kings finishing No. 7 in the west. Lol.

[Sobchak]

I'd be hyping up the Kings too if I was a minority owner noracist

Chicago looks like they picked up right where they left off: having Derrick Rose be the one-man offense. At least Jimmy Butler looks good. Wish Kevin Love would find his way over there.

Super agrell with Nick Young on the Lakers.

NBA 2013-14 Tip-off Predix:

Heat vs Spurs Finals rematch.
Oladipo ROY
LeBron MVP.

Utah opener vs OKC tonight. This one could go either way.

[Sobchak]

Michael Carter-Williams did pretty well. Funny how r/NBA is up in arms like there won't be a scouting report on him in a week. Still, gud jab.

Love 3 pretty neat. KD's 42 points pretty neat. Portland lost, not neat (TWO FUCKING REBOUNDS FROM ROBIN LOPEZ, AY DIOS).

Why didn't Trey Burke play tonight?

[fallenchicken]

He fractured his finger in preseason and will be out for a few weeks. And so we are watching John Lucas the Third and street ball legend Jamal Tinsley in his 83rd season run the point. Despite that, we played pretty well. Perfect game for the Jazz: strong individual performances (Favors and Burks played awesome), entertaining game (went down to the last possession) and but we still lost.

I feel bad for Durant until Westbrook gets back. Too much Jamal Tinsley vs Derrick Fisher.

A guy on an OKC blog is convinced the Raptors have a chance to win the East. He really likes Rudy Gay.

He also happens to be Australian.

Westbrook is baaaack!

Toronto wants to trade everybody. Throw picks at them until they give the Thunder Amir Johnson and Steve Novak just for shits and giggles. Pls.

Also Clippers allowed 66 points in the first half and were ahead by double digits. ALL THAT DEFENSE.

[fallenchicken]

I think I heard that the Clippers are #1 offensively and #30 defensively these first 30 games.

[badfo]

I enjoy that the Nets and Knicks are both bad. Nets will turn it around but LOL JR.

Holy shit do the Knicks and Nets look terrible. Why can't the Knicks ever fucking figure it out? Bargnani was the answer to their prayers and now they hope Rondo falls in their lap?

Lol.

Blazers looking a-ok numbah one for now. Probably not sustainable but tonight's win showed a lot of confidence, which I haven't seen since the B-Roy days.

I'm just glad Denver looks like shit and hopefully Minnesota craps out soon.

[fallenchicken]

I'm so sorry for Jabari right now

[badfo]

The Knicks desperation is great. They have nothing else to trade except Shumpert and keep trying to see if teams will make a bad trade with them. If only they could trade with themselves.

Are you saying Denver never considered trading Faried for Shumpert? That the rumor was leaked by New York and Denver never considered it? Because, i mean,

New York is really desperate.

Jason Kidd gonna get fired soon. The Lakers are bad. Not even bad-bad, just bad, which is perfect. I feel like they're going to win the lottery though ala the Bulls w/ Derick Rose.

GS is good but we're all just waiting for the other ankle to drop. thunder is good now that they got Westbrook back. Spurs are once and for always the best. I hope the Clippers get knocked out in the second round again.

[badfo]

GS looks like the real deal but it would be amazing if they held up.

Also I've watched that Kidd video 10 times or so by now.

The Lakers are so much fun! It's weird. Every time I've seen them they've been incredibly entertaining. They are bad, too, but fun bad. Kobe will probably ruin it.

Come here, Amir Johnson. You know you want to. Request a trade. Come on. We don't bite.

[fallenchicken]

Hello darkness my old friend.

It's a bad situation for everyone, though. Why would the Nets hire a new coach for a team that has to win a championship this year or it's a failure? Why would they put him in that situation? That organization is so dumb it's funny. It's like if a Russian oligarch bought a team for fun or something.

Steven Adams is going to get a handshake even if it has to be by himself:

I liked the reddit title for this: "Our favorite kiwi gets burned by Byron "don't call me BJ" Mullens"

[isgrelindisguise]

I'm really starting to feel bad for the bulls.

[Sobchak]

I feel your pain, Chicago.
