erog84 Posted October 30, 2015 Report Posted October 30, 2015 They hav three core players ..... Are you saying this is a good thing or bad thing for cleveland? Love and Irving may be injury prone, and Lebron looks like his body might finally be feeling the effects of all he has done over the years, not a good sign. That being said, as others mentioned, fully healthy nothing less than the championship will be expected. Personally I loved watching them when they were all healthy and flowing, they started to look alot like the spurs team that destroyed miami 2 years back. Namely it seemed everyone ENJOYED sharing the ball, and team playing looked to be so seamless. That is what really seperates Lebron from someone like Kobe in my eyes. I've watched the 2 first lakers game, and I think Randle has alot of potential, but I just don't see the lakers breaking into the playoffs anytime soon. Not even close.... Used to be a big fan of the warriors, and I still highly respect Curry's skill, and demeaner, but I have slowly been getting turned off by them. I really hope to see them get smashed this year! (especially draymond green) Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted October 31, 2015 Report Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) Good description of the Cavs! Totally agree. LeBron hasn't lost a step, but he kind of has. It's just the beating he's taken over the years. Edited October 31, 2015 by MormonGator Quote
Dr T Posted October 31, 2015 Author Report Posted October 31, 2015 Kobe passed Shaq tonight for the 5th spot for FG made 11,331. Sac came out blazing 40-24 in the first quarter. We got stomped! 132-114 Kings Quote
Vort Posted October 31, 2015 Report Posted October 31, 2015 I thought I remembered Shaq missing field goals, not making them. Quote

(especially draymond green)I am saying its a good thing. They need those 3 players healthy in order to win it all. Last year was a good example....if they were all healthy they beat Golden State Quote
Dr T Posted November 1, 2015 Author Report Posted November 1, 2015 "The defense was awful with the Lakers giving up 80 points in the paint to DeMarcus Cousins and company. This was the first time an NBA team had given up 80 points in the paint to an opponent in 20 years." The commentator compared us to D league. Quote

That was a terrible game for you guys. Not that my guys did any better but in fairness to us San Antonio is just so good. I know you don't want to hear that one Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted November 2, 2015 Report Posted November 2, 2015 Woah, dude. Did you hear Kobes comments? Ouch. Quote

Dr T Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Posted November 3, 2015 OUm, sorry DrT but the commentator makes a good point. That was a terrible game for you guys. Not that my guys did any better but in fairness to us San Antonio is just so good. I know you don't want to hear that one It's reality. We fell to 0-3. For the third time. Randle played well and yes I head what Lobe said. He has been playing poorly . 0 and 3 out of the gate Mavs been us by 10 last night. Quote

Sorry I'm not more clear. I think don't think you can judge a team until it's December. Then, all bets are off). I DO think that once it's early December all of us will have a better grasp where our favorite teams are. If the Lakers are 0-14 by December, it's time to make drastic changes.

Dr T Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Posted November 4, 2015 Yes MG I know what ur saying. We are just starting but players have been hurt already this season. Quote
Palerider Posted November 5, 2015 Report Posted November 5, 2015 Lebron says Kobe is playing possum ...... Curious to see how that plays out. Quote
Dr T Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Posted November 5, 2015 And my boys fall to 0-4 to start our season. 109-120 Nuggets. How long is this season going to be for me? I am excited to see us start playing well. I think it could happen. Quote
Dr T Posted November 5, 2015 Author Report Posted November 5, 2015 Lebron says Kobe is playing possum ...... Curious to see how that plays out.Yesterday I read LBJ just said "it's Kobe" saying there's not much to be concerned about with him. I did not see or read what LBJ said tho. Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted November 5, 2015 Report Posted November 5, 2015 Yesterday I read LBJ just said "it's Kobe" saying there's not much to be concerned about with him. I did not see or read what LBJ said tho. Kobe is still Kobe and without question one of the greatest players in history. That said, time waits for no one. I don't want to see him go out on his shield, but I think he will. Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted November 5, 2015 Report Posted November 5, 2015 Woah. Calm down, deep breath for the Gator. I JUST heard that Derrick Rose and the Bulls are parting ways. Did you know about this? Quote
Palerider Posted November 6, 2015 Report Posted November 6, 2015 Woah. Calm down, deep breath for the Gator. I JUST heard that Derrick Rose and the Bulls are parting ways. Did you know about this? That might be a good thing for him ....another town another city .....a new place Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted November 6, 2015 Report Posted November 6, 2015 That might be a good thing for him ....another town another city .....a new place Yup, I totally agree with you. I was just a little surprised . I don't think it's time to give up on this marriage yet. Derrick Rose has problems but I still think he is really good. Quote
Dr T Posted November 7, 2015 Author Report Posted November 7, 2015 The 4th game we lost 109-120 to Denver Quote
Dr T Posted November 7, 2015 Author Report Posted November 7, 2015 Our first win this season was over Brooklyn 104-98! I'll take it. Artest played D well to help and we had some people shooting tonight. Quote
Dr T Posted November 7, 2015 Author Report Posted November 7, 2015 I wonder where Rose will go next.....? Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted November 7, 2015 Report Posted November 7, 2015 I know it stinks now bud, but seriously, it'll end. It's just basketball. It's how the game works. Quote
Dr T Posted November 8, 2015 Author Report Posted November 8, 2015 So true MG. I went to the LA HOU game last night as I was in LA this weekend and my buddy is from Houston. Lakers r my boys and not the Clippers but it was still a NBA game and was fun but LA lost to Harden's monster game. LA fell off in the third and we're back in it at the end but could not finish it off. It was funish though Quote
Guest MormonGator Posted November 8, 2015 Report Posted November 8, 2015 I have no idea where Derrick Rose will wind up. No clue whatsoever. Who would want him? No offense to him. Injury problems, questionable attitude...tell me I'm wrong, seriously. But at this point, the burden is on him. Quote
