Re: Nba

I think he'll stay there for his first extension at least. His 2nd might be a different story. It's not a great place to be, a hard place to attract FA and keep them. Growing together might create a family atmosphere amongst the group and they may show some loyalty which is a forgotten word in this league. I have a bit more hope we'll see a change of attitude when the Lebron era dies and his merry band of circus superstars retire with him. We'll see.

There has been a bit of a shift towards loyalty lately, even in smaller markets. But yes, hopefully once LeBron and Durant are gone, the ring chasing ends. Those two are largely responsible for the pattern of teaming up with other superstars in order to win a ring. There is only 1 ring I consider legit amongst all their championships and that's LeBrons win with the cavs.

Durant will never be one of the greats. He can never lead a team to success himself.

Agree on the James ring chasing BS. That one with the Cavs was brilliant. The rest if them just another case of stacking the deck.

Agree on Durant as well even though he's a player I love. (Ex Sonic) I do hope he gets one this season, I'd love to see the Suns break the drought.

I was on the suns until Durant went there. I just don't want that behaviour rewarded. So I'm back supporting the nuggets and bucks.

I could handle a Nuggets title. I'd love to see them win, especially after the hatchett job on Jokic this season. I actually like Memphis, they play like pricks but it seems like they're a tight unit and have a good team chemistry. I really hope they destroy the Lakers.

No for the Lakers, no for Philly, no for Boston. Anyone else winning I'd probably enjoy watching, I'm easily pleased. Kings Vs Warriors in the 1st round is going to be a hoot and a half.

Re: Nba

I'm hanging for Knicks and Cavs tomorrow morning.

Cavs more talented but I love the grit of the Knicks and I think we can push it to 7 games.

Re: Nba

What a win! Put some respect on Brunsons name!

The Knicks are everything the Dogs aren't; 110% effort.

Re: Nba

Only caught the last quarter in the Kings - Warriors game very exciting game. I haven't seen Sacramento at all this year but they were great to watch.

There's a lot of great players in the NBA, but Steph Curry is absolute greatness. Absolutely carried the warriors that quarter.

Re: Nba

The Kings v Warriors game 1 was electric. Unbelievable game. Fox was outstanding, crowd was out of control. Looked like the best round 1 series coming in and still looks like it after that.

Re: Nba

Kings topped the Warriors in Game 6. Every time Golden State came at them they had an answer. I'm hoping the Warriors get up but great to see some belief in a young team.

LA win, yay.

Re: Nba

So first game in the books. Really struggled, I'd be lying if I thought it was going to go that way. Didn't hit a shot, everything rushed, fitness is appalling, I was blowing smoke after 4 minutes and just struggled to know where to stand, when to move on both ends. Got through without injury so that is a big positive. Haha

You could’ve mentioned that your first game was for the New York Knicks.
