New NBA season

I'm not looking forward to next season at all.

 

Why not?:smiley-laughing002: Your team traded badly, or you foresee a GSW landslide?

 

Sad to see D-Wade leave. All the best, what living basketball legend he is. Not looking forward to next season at all. They might offload Bosh as well and prepare for next year's free agency..

 

With everything that has been going on the past few days I didn't even notice that the Warriors had also signed Zaza Pachulia on a vet minimum contract, averaged 8.5 points and 9.5 rebounds last season for the Mavericks and will be Golden States starting centre next year.

 

Both!

Won't be entertained by my team, won't be entertained by the chase for the Championship. Will stand by the Heat as I did in the 15-67 season a few years back.

But I'm fully behind LeBron James, it's all on him and Kyrie to stop that embarrassment to basketball. I liked GSW, but Durant has ruined that, I don't want him to win a ring. Ideal scenario would be Westbrook dominating them in the playoffs and eliminating them.

 

Bit harsh is it not? Is he not a good guy?

I dont follow a team, so i can chop n change every year. I enjoy it better that way. Same with EPL most years. Less stress when you dont have a strong favourite.:smiley-laughing002:

 

Not really bothered if he is a 'good guy' or not.

Yeh I normally follow a few teams, but Miami is #1. Always liked Toronto since I've got family there and got a Bosh jersey. The Rockets too as Tracy McGrady was always one of my favourite players.

 

So why the 'hate' on him?

 

Theres only a handful or less really of good teams as it was and hes weakened one of the couple of good teams to strengthen the best further, can see why people will hate him for that as its kind of ruined the League.

GSW now have like a Guardiola Barcelona team when the next best teams are like Atletico Madrid, Sevilla and Villarreal, those teams might beat them when it comes to knockout at the end of the season but everyone pretty much knows the Warriors are going to be the top team easily.

 

I think he stood by them long enough myself. He has spent 9 winters in Oklahoma....i dont blame him for moving to sunnier climes this winter!:smiley-laughing002: I remember thinking the minute they lost Harden that OKCT would never win it.

Lebron had to move to get his rings.......! I think he gave it more than enough time. He helped keep them as a top team for a good long period....he owes them nothing.

 

Tim Duncan has announced his retirement

 

Absolute legend

 

Adam Silver was talking earlier this week about super teams like the Warriors forming and how it wasn't great for the league and now Derrick Rose has come out and said that he thinks Silver was also talking about this seasons Knicks too with him, Carmelo Anthony, Brandon Jennings and Joakim Noah being on the same team

 

Russell Westbrook has agreed a 3 year $85m contract extension with the Thunder.

 

Ray Allen has had talks with both the Celtics and Bucks as he thinks about making an NBA return at the age of 41.

 

Who you guys got for this season? Anyone seeing past the Warriors?

 

Warriors at an Enes Kanter

 

Kevin Garnett has announced his retirement after 21 years in the league

 

Favorites of course, but their both main guys are fragile, so anything can happen. Same as last year, the only reason they lost is Curry's ankles. If Curry was healthy, they'd be sweeping or near sweeping both the Thunder and the Cavs.

 

Spurs were class last night, ripped the GSW apart.

Kahwi and Aldridge were unreal.

I hope the Spurs win the Championship this year.
