NBA Discussion - Week of 12/5/2016 (New Thread)

T-Wolves are trash. Rubio was right when he called them out a few weeks ago talking about how they don't learn from their mistakes, which is ironic considering he's as responsible as anyone, but still...

Yep. Team is missing "solid" NBA pieces at key positions. Have an athletic wing in Wiggins who was overachieving early on beyond the arc. Towns is a stud in the making but struggles vs. bigger defenders. The rest of the roster is trash w/ no true players at any of their respective positions.

Will be better when Dunn is offensively sound enough to play the 1 more.

Dieng is a backup. Muhammad sucks. Rubio sucks. Etc.

And at the risk of repeating myself, all this talk about Thibodeau being a defensive genius (well, maybe he is, I'm not really an X's and O's guy), but I guess it's a lot easier to look like a defensive genius when you have Defensive POY's on your roster like Noah, Deng and Rose...

kings don't play d sorry

 

[Inspekdah]

Kings must be 0/10 on wide open 3's

 

[nbafan88]

Jazz -6.5. POY.

miami playing 9th game in 12 on the road and 4/5 and ending a difficult stretch on the road before heading home....they have L4 straight....i can see them being worn out....probably gonna play bulls -10.5 and will look again at half....i think they are a little beat up also

 

[blownaway]

What's the status on Hayward and hood?

 

[edou1x]

why Jazz only -6?

 

[edou1x]

Nuggets also in an incredibly good spot and away favs for a reason: ORL back from long road trip , playing 4 in 5 travelling last 8 matches , kind of a very good spot

trailblazers taking indiana on B2B back home from a west coast trip , seems good also.

What's the status on Hayward and hood?

hayward is playing

 

[emkee]

Jazz -6.5. POY.

Bad spot in general for the Kings but not really 'Play of Year' material given all the rest Sacramento had during this stretch of games.

7 games in 14 days is pretty much a holiday.

 

[Montanas]

Jazz first half is nice

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Why is money coming in on Magic?

 

[hugh613]

Why is money coming in on Magic?

Wilson Chandler's out for the Nuggets, although both Vucevic and Biyombo are out for the Magic. Think Mudiay's a bit banged up as well.

 

[Hulu]

Biyombo reportedly will play now.

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Miw Bucks +4 1u

No Anthony Davis tonight, Gentry said. Played a lot of minutes recently, Gentry said he thought Davis should have a night off

 

[XhuegoX]

Rowan Kavner ‏@RowanKavner 20m20 minutes ago
No Jrue Holiday or Etwaun Moore either

 

[XhuegoX]

blake out too i think

line up to LAC -14.5

 

[cogenman]

Dubs getting smashed. This Grizz team continues to impress. 17-9 with a lot of injuries and playing in the west is impressive.
