NBA discussion thread

Haha how did this conversation get to gatorade? Anyway, yeah that's how bad Sasha is. People will want to trade him in an instant if possible.

Hopefully we can trade him for some Gatorade and a few towels in the off season.

Guilty as charged. 😇

Any of you have specific playoff matchups that you're looking forward to or want?

I would love for the Nets to stay in the 7th spot in the east while the Raptors move up to 2nd, because it's the one team that I'm confident we can beat.

For the Lakers move to the 4, 5, 6th spot.

Nuggets vs Suns should be an exciting up tempo pace. Suns should win the series, but the Nuggets would love to play the Suns' style of play.

Why?

The playoffs are right around the corner, can't wait.

Why?

If I were the Raptors, I would prefer the Nets over any of the other possibilities. Nobody on the Nets would be able to stop Bosh.

Yeah, hopefully.

In a couple of years, Raptors will go far.

Imagine if high schoolers still went pro and Toronto had Bosh and Oden. That would have been a fun team.

Not fun for the rest of the league.

That would be kinda of cool and he would fit perfectly beside Bosh, and if that did happen, Bosh would be amazing (even more than he was before)

But would Oden come out of high school?

Doubt it, he still wants to play another year in college.

4th seed vs 5th seed in the West, Houston and Utah, I have have high hopes for that series.

The Sixers have dropped all the way to the 8th pick now. face-plain face-plain face-plain face-plain

I swear to god, if they draft Noah, I will never be a fan of them again until he is not on the team anymore.

I wish they would trade up for Oden or Durant though. But there's no way that's gonna happen.

Probly not.

I would love for the Lakers to either drop to the 7th spot and play the Suns in the first round or Suns drop to the 3rd seed so we play them in the first round. Either way I want to eliminate them bitches early.

I agree completley.

I would want Noah on my team but I doubt he will be available for you guys at the 8th pick. Oden and Durant haven't even declared for the NBA draft yet. Don't get your hopes up. Noah is an outstanding player and a leader and to tell you the truth I just don't see the leadership with Durant or Oden.

1) I hate him, so even if he was good I still wouldn't want him.
2) He'll definatley be available. I don't see him going any lower than 8th.
3) He is not very good, and won't do anything NBA. ALL he has is emotion. He has no post up game, besides drawing fouls, and he isn't good at Free Throws. He won't be able to get many rebounds against the C's and PF's in the league. His defense isn't very good, and he will get eaten alive against decent PF/C's. The only good part of his defense is his help defense.

1.) Understandable
2.) If teams were smart they would pick him up, it might possibly turn into a Celtics Tim Duncan situation where they end up regretting it for a very long time.
3.) He is good enough to lead his team to 2 straight titles, get awarded the MOP in the tournament and plus he is 6'11 with long ass arms and has guard handles, mostly attributed to the fact that he played guard then shot up to 6'11 in a short amount of time. He has good defense and is capable of leading the league in bpg.
