2017-2018 NBA Regular Season Thread

@Mecca and @bksballer89

Check out Brooklyn's upcoming schedule.

If they win 3 games in November, I will admit I was wrong about them. I think there is a chance they go 0 for the month though.

1 win down.

Disappointing end to the half. Warriors should be up 25+ at the end of 3.

I have to think the Dubs will be rooting for Warriors/Cavs round 4 this June. Facing Cleveland looks preferable to Boston for them from a matchup standpoint.

1 win down.

Yep.

And it gets a lot tougher from here.

The season is 12% over and the Cavs have the same record as the Suns, Nets, and Heat (assuming no craziness)

@Shaqdaddy11 ....

You called that shit about the Celtics being better this year.

I was waaaaaaaaaaay wrong....lol

Kyrie is a MONSTA and Ainge absolutely drafted the right guy in Tatum.

Next year when Hayward is healthy, gonna be interesting to see who goes to the bench.

I'm guessing Brown.

But, what a nice problem to have.

I didn't want to be right - because fuck the Celtics!

But I had a feeling Kyrie was going to flourish.

Just hope they fuck up on Wednesday now.

NBA Power Rankings: Familiar squad back on top

ESPN rankings proving they're full of shit again.

Cavs 4-6 record, looked like absolute crap ranked 10th

Lakers with a 5-5 record, playing fun basketball rank 24th

Not saying the Lakers are a better team, but at THIS stage of the season they should be at LEAST top 15 and the Cavs outside the top 20

Power Rankings: Quality wins push Detroit Pistons into top five | NBA.com

NBA.com Power Rankings much better

Russell Westbrook is shooting 58% from the ft line this year

Thats inexcusable. He missed 4 in a row the other night. He's always been rock solid at the line. I think Roberson is rubbing off on him.

ESPN Power rankings have always been garbage. They use some kind of strange formula if Hollinger is still doing them and Hollinger has always hated the Lakers

It's the LeBron factor.

It's hard to fathom any Team with him on the roster could be absolute dog shit.

Bledsoe to the Bucks!

He has been working for Memphis for the last 4 years or so.

Great trade for the Bucks.

Lol @ the Suns.

They didn't even get a pg in return?
