Season starts tonight!

New season = new thread.

Get your predictions in and what not. Some of you have done that already in the off-season thread.

Tonights predictions:

Wizards at Cavs
Celtics at Heat
Mavs at Lakers

Re: Arrive. #TripDub. Leave. #DatNoahSWAG

Kanter and Favors were both third overall draft selections. They are both talented as fuck with high potentials. They're both being played from the bench in favour of guys who have already reached their ceilings and their ceilings are nowhere close to the ceilings of Favors/Kanter. In fact, they also have Burks on the bench who could also make for a good player given the time. With all this young talent, the Jazz sure are stupid as fuck when it comes to utilizing it. Would it really be so awful to miss the playoffs this year after trading away Jefferson and Millsap for a brighter future? Not to mention this only makes Favors resent the franchise seeing as he wanted more starter minutes at the beginning of the year and clearly has not received them. Kanter won't like coming off the bench for much longer either.

Are you sure? At Al Jeffs ceiling he was averaging 23 and 11. So you're telling me Favors or Kanter can average a lot more than 23 and 11 for the whole season? I like both but AL was a beast in minnesota. yea, he was basically a one man team but i don't think favors or kanter can average a lot more than 23 and 11 for a whole season. Maybe close, but not more.

Re: Arrive. #TripDub. Leave. #DatNoahSWAG

Can we please change the thread title to "Monta Ellis have it all."?

If you don't know where that comes from...



Btw, he's played great since the Bucks acquired Redick. Maybe he does have it all? :side:

Re: "MONTA ELLIS HAVE IT ALL!"

So Ibaka doesn't get suspended for punching Griffin in the balls but these plays were all suspension-worthy this season alone:








Conclusion? The NBA is so retarded and inconsistent with the way they discipline players.

Re: "MONTA ELLIS HAVE IT ALL!"

That's what I thought. I've heard a couple of rumors, probably with little substance to them and more speculation from these shitty journalists, about A'Mare getting dealt to the Bulls in the offseason.
I'm also on the Booze cruise. Now if A'Mare came with Iman Shumpert, I might consider it.

Re: "MONTA ELLIS HAVE IT ALL!"

I don't see the Bulls trading Boozer for a player on the same contract that's worse than him. If anything, I'd see them trading Boozer for a guy to backup Taj since you know, they just signed him to a big contract extension.

Re: "MONTA ELLIS HAVE IT ALL!"

Boozer over Amar'e easily.

Good news about Rose. The talk must stop now. It's time for him to play ball.
From what Thibs said, it seems like now at this point the call is on Rose. Whenever he feels he's ready is when he'll play.

Should also note that his doctor said that part of his rehab from the surgery is that he must play games, he can't get to 100% without doing it.
