Importatlanta NBA THREAD - All things NBA offseason and current season

[Jdm94Coupe]

I dont have to be black to experience racism in the work place. Black females are by far the most racist individuals in the work place. If i was making what chris paul makes, my boss could call me a honkey cracker white trash redneck every day. Also...... this wasnt racism in a work place, this was racism in the privacy of ones home.

If soneone makibg a comment in private is a bigger deal to you than a divorce, then maybe thats why so many baby mommas out there raising bastard children.

You can't live in georgia. Not possible.

I'm from Detroit. Joy road. This is the most racist place I've ever been, but the economy is better than home. So I'm here. But black women more than white men, LMAO!

[Jdm94Coupe]

Fwiw I don't think the mavericks or clippers are separated by much. I can see them flipping between 3/4 . hell like this year I could see mavericks an 8th seed due to how stacked the west is.

I think with hardens comments, he and d12 now have to be mentally tough and I don't think they are. I see lots of locker room issues this year .

Yea we disagree with their offseason moves, you have them moving from 8 to 3/4. I got them moving up, not that much though. I don't see the players who made them move THAT high. Let's see tho

[Vteckidd]

They have parsons and chandler doe

Their starting 5:
Jameer Nelson/Felton
Monta Ellis
Parsons
Dirk
Chandler

That's not bad. They unfortunately lost Carter and probably Marion. I still think they have some more moves to make because the bench is not special. They lack depth at C and Sf

However, Portland landed Kaman and Blake those are solid pickups.

I just don't see GSW getting over that hump and rockets regress. I see mavs and Portland moving up

Ehh sterling is an idiot and while his speech is perfectly legal, I personally wouldn't want him in my company or organization.

We can debate levels of racism and freedom of speech , but for me its just a simple "his views are completely despicable and unwarranted in a civilized world".

Black people are more racist than whites. Every measurable statistic known to man supports this statement. Black women are the worst. Nothing worse than a black femenist. Most of the racist shit you hear in media is from black ppl.... but it gets wrote off as retaliation.

If he said it in public id agree.

The naacp gave him a lifetime achievement award. Clearly the only color they care about is green

The NCAA is a separate issue and just shows how out of touch they are.

I lump the NCAA in with Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. Race pimps, perpetuating a racial argument to line their own pockets.

That doesnt mean we should ignore Donald Sterling. It doesnt mean we should turn a blind eye to hatred like that

Dallas will be great. I agree. I just don't see them being better than the top3 seeds from last season.

We turn a blind eye to racism daily..... unless its a white person.

Point made.

Agree to disagree.

Totally. 100% with you, Im just making a bold prediction :P

[Jdm94Coupe]

What you guys think about the lakers?

I'm thinking we are all going to be surprised

[Vteckidd]

They might win more than 15 games, but they are not better than 9 teams in that conference. No shot at the playoffs.

[Jdm94Coupe]

Something's making me believe they will end up with Bledsoe and/or Monroe

[Sinfix_15]

My only interest in the lakers is hoping that kobe stays healthy and has a fitting end to his career. Even though its a never ending cycle.... i hate to see the legends fall from grace.

I cant see the lakers as a contender in the murderers row that is the west. The nba has never been this deep.

[Sinfix_15]

Spurs vs Bulls in the finals. Book it

[Vteckidd]

Bledsoe LOL dude wants a max deal for playing 50% of 1 season as a starter.

Monroe isnt getting offers either

EDIT: I like both players, very talented, but I dont see anyone offering them any serious money

[Sinfix_15]

So two number 1 picks and a 1st rnd pick for Love.i know getting lebron erases everything, but cleveland management sucks. This team could have been dominant.

[Vteckidd]

Yeah 3 players at 20 million a season.....good luck feel like we have seen this story already.

Only thing that saves them is if the cap jumps 20-30 million with the new CBA and TV deal.

Their starting five is awesome their bench is atrocious

[Jdm94Coupe]

Spurs vs Bulls in the finals. Book it

Bulls, interesting pick.

I have to see Rose's PG and leadership ability. Definitely excited to see the new him though...... old him won't get them there.

Bledsoe LOL dude wants a max deal for playing 50% of 1 season as a starter.

Monroe isnt getting offers either

EDIT: I like both players, very talented, but I dont see anyone offering them any serious money

bledsoe should still be with the clippers. one of the worst trades ever, dudley for bledsoe..... terrible.

monroe should've took the offer from atlanta......

So two number 1 picks and a 1st rnd pick for Love.i know getting lebron erases everything, but cleveland management sucks. This team could have been dominant.

bennett stinks! cleveland came out with a lopsided deal.... even if wiggins averages 20+ppg..... i would've DEMANDED d. waiters too....

definitely not the same story. these 2 players vs the heat's are COMPLETELY different skill sets.

I think there is a huge fuss about lebron with love, i think lebron playing with a PG with elite ball handling skills will be the best thing that ever happened for the longevity of his career.....

why is the bench so bad? didnt they get mike miller, james jones, s. marion? dont they still have a few big bodies? im sure the teams arent dont making deals before the playoffs come back......

who u got kidd? in the finals......
