NBA 2018-19 Regular Season Thread Part II

This Mavs-Kings game could be a glimpse of a future Western Conf Final. Fox vs Doncic, great stuff.

With the game on the line Fox took Luka to the hoop and scored.

Unrelated, but I bet Boston isn't happy about the Kings pick this year lol.

 

[Aladyyn]

Their fault for drafting Bowie & Oden tho.



Giannis could average 35 PPG too if he took 500 shots a game.

Cool. He isn't. Harden is. Unprecedented combination of volume and efficiency.

This.

 

[Aladyyn]

It's also hilarious how every year people move the goalposts to try and deny Harden the MVP

Giannis is far and away the better player and should win MVP.

Rubbish. People act like all Harden does is hoist up 3s and shoot free throws on nonexistent fouls. You do realize Harden is 7th in NBA in assists and 2nd in steals per game. Highest PPG since Michael Jordan in 86/87. Almost 7 rebs per game is pretty impressive for a guard.

 

[Jack Straw]

There is nobody on the planet who is “far and away” better at basketball than James Harden.

Doc Rivers has taken his 0 All Star team of players to a playoff spot. Clippers since the trade deadline are 15-5.

I’ve said this before, his best coaching work since he won the championship..

I thought they were a lock for bottom-10. He's done a fantastic job.

yeah this clippers squad is a classic example of how important coaching and chemistry are

pretty amazing how they're still playing well despite trading away their best player

Yeah and like I said a week or so ago when watching him live you can really see the beating he takes on a nightly basis too. He earns those free throw trips that's for sure.

I do think Giannis is pretty good though, probably Harden's biggest challenger to the MVP for sure. I also agree with Stephen A Smith about as often as the sun rises in the West, but I did agree with what he said a day or so ago that Harden would be a megastar and MVP candidate on any team, while Giannis, while certainly very good, is probably more of an MVP candidate due to the excellent coaching he's getting in Milwaukee.

Gotta eat crow myself. Called them a fluke up until the trade deadline, then thought they we're for sure done after it. They proved me (and a lot of others) wrong.

Its certainly helped rebuild his rep after the failure of the Lob City era.

They'll be good very soon. Booker/Ayton are really good building blocks.

I think Doc just strictly coaching has helped him revive himself. With Lawrence Franks and Jerry West doing management things for the Clippers, he can just concentrate on one thing

He was atrocious as a GM anyway

Nothing new in Boston.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Jordan Bell used assistant coach Mike Brown's personal credit card to place a hotel charge.

Your > 1 mil salary isn't good enough? What an idiot.

Warriors suspended Bell for reportedly placing hotel charge under Mike Brown

Typical Boston.

Remember when Joel Ward scored the gw ot goal in game 7? Twitter was a nightmare.

Expectations. Golden State is supposed to be great and the Clippers were supposed to be a lottery team.
