Read that Lakers will go after Lebron or Melo during next year's FA. I think either of them have to opt out of their final year tho (20m for lebron,24m for melo). I still think Lebron will go back to Cleveland and having melo on the lakers would be sweet

lol, you seriously think LeBron will leave Miami for Cleveland in his prime.....C'mon....

[411ken]

lol, you seriously think LeBron will leave Miami for Cleveland in his prime.....C'mon....
Yes, I actually do.

1. the Cavs team with Irving/Thompson/Waiters/Gee/Bennett etc are a better supporting cast now that what he had when he played for them. Wade did slow down so he's not the main guy there anymore and now everyone knows what lebron can do with a good supporting cast so they can join him in Cleveland.

2. IMO I think Lebron is the type of guy that would want to win a championship for Cleveland in his prime. He always talk about how he loves Cleveland and his hometown etc etc. I don't even remember the last time the cavs have won a championship so I'm sure he wants to do that.

I would actually be surprised if he doesn't.

[411ken]

speaking of the Cavs... they offered Bynum 24million for 2 years... wtf...must be nice to get thrown that much money without even playing a single game last year lol

They shouldve just offered a 1yr contract

But imagine IF he was 100%

Irving/Waiters/Gee/Thompson/Bynum --- Bennett/Zeller/Jack/Miles then trade Varejao for a swingman

[Isaiah11]

Stephen A Smith has said Lebron would like to join Melo with the Knicks

and he recently reported, according to his "sources", Melo wants to opt out final year and go to the Lakers

probably just hogwash

Irving/Waiters/Gee/Thompson/Bynum --- Bennett/Zeller/Jack/Miles then trade Varejao for a swingman

2nd year on Bynum's offers from Cleveland is a team option I think...and they also signed Earl Clarke; I'd assume he's ahead of Gee on the depth chart...possibly even start at the 3.

[Special K]

So... with MWP gone who do we have left for the Lakers as of now?

Kobe, Pau, Nash, .... ????

Nash is unreliable and can't play D. Kobe probably won't come back until Christmas with his injuries. Is it safe to say the Lakers will be the new Clippers team in the old days? :(

[dachinesedude]

^obviously lakers are prepping for next july already, they only have nash on contract for 2014/15

gonna be interest when you got melo, james, wade, and bosh all with player options next summer

[Mike Oxbig]

doubtful wade will leave miami unless its for CHI but it would be nice to see lebron with the lakers winning a championship for kobe :lol

Hopefully that will have lakers fan behind him and have kobe leave him on good words after retirement.

aging kobe gasol lebron > wade bosh lebron

Wade will retire a heat. I don't see him leaving whatsoever
If lebron somehow opts out, i still think it will be to cavs and all the heat fans now will turn to diehard cavs fans :badpokerface:
Bosh... Who cares about this guy...lol. I don't see him leaving Miami next year as I don't see any other team that would pay him 20m and 22mill a year if he opts out
I can see Carmelo with the greatest chance to opt out but could he get equal to 23million he wud make ?

[Special K]

Uhh I don't see LBJ going to the Lakers.

From a shoe game perspective, Nike probably will be the first to object. Same colourway for Kobe 10 and LeBron 12? Lawls
Posted via RS Mobile

[Nlkko]

Miami core is not going anywhere unless something catastrophic happens. Melo is a maybe depends on how the season pans out. Lakers's best bet is landing a great pick.

Whatever Bron said about playing for his hometown is not very relevant. You should realize how difficult it is to assemble a team capable of winning multi-championships like Miami and not one-hit wonders.
Posted via RS Mobile

[411ken]

It's pretty obvious wade/bosh will not leave. Who else would pay them the amount they'll make in miami for the remainder of their contract lol

And as for building a championship...it's easy to do if u have wade/James/bosh and players taking discounts to try and get a championship.

You don't think nobody would take discounts to play with lebron,Irving,Thompson etc if LBJ moved back? Without lebron, Miami is nothing as wade has slowed down tremendously and bosh is inconsistent. They'll be a playoff team but that's it

If lebron doesn't opt out then I definitely see him leaving after his contract is up

I'm not hating but just my opinion

Edit: why are we even talking about this lol. It's so far from today. Who knows. Maybe he'll wind up in Brooklyn and his buddy Jay Z lol

[Not really racist!]

Also... LA assembling the all NBA rape team

[bballguy]

Nets got AK47.

[G-spec]

Dwight continues to amaze me, obviously he's a genuinely nice guy, but just as stupid and uninformed, I really wonder what his circle of entourage looks like, bunch of fuckin yes men.... his court mentality is he's still stuck in that prime Orlando Finals Dwight where he could just jerk off in the low post all game long and they would spoon feed him
and because his whole world revolves around this, he's out there looking for another Orlando Magic, another team that will make him the center of not just attention every single second he's on the floor...... NBA doesn't work like that for the most part bro, grow the fuck up and you'll start winning chips.... like Shaq said, "the day I stopped caring.... I started winning chips"


really excited about Doc coaching Clippers, excited they dumped Chauncey he was done last year, NOT at all liking the fact they gave up Bledsoe, makes no sense as their #1 priority for a while has been is to have an elite perimeter defender, and they had that in Bledsoe... so to get rid of him to acquire another shooter when they really don't need help shooting or scoring the fuckin ball, it's an obviously wrong move....

I FINALLY FINALLY hope now that D'Andre Jordan can get his shit together and be a solid double double guy like Asik was in Houston this year, this is exactly what the Clippers need for them to make a deep playoff run.... Vinny fcked with Jordan's minutes constantly so hopefully Doc lets him loose

[bballguy]

Bledsoe was gone after this season, they had to get some good value for him while they could....Reddick and Dudley are great players and will be big pieces for their deep run. Great trade IMO. Reddick is a smart player and a dead-eye shooter, while Dudley is an athletic wing who is solid defensively.

[Sir_Loin]

Nets got AK47.

3.1 Million over 2 years :badpokerface: Prokhorov either has AK47's family in a Siberia prison camp or there's an under the table agreement with him getting more assets in Russia, where the NBA has no jurisdiction.

Nick Young to the Lakers for 1-year vet minimum. They need someone to take all the fadeaways and dumb shots without Kobe for the first couple of months.

Agreed.. How could any clipper fan not like this trade at all.. Reddick/Dudley instantly made them better than what Bledsoe would IMO.

And seeing how the Heat have been doing (outside of the big 3) we all know how important the 3pt game is nowadays..

Lakers looks prime for tanking. Signed a couple vets to appease the fan but what Chris Kaman gonna do beside sitting on the injury list. Nick Young hoisting up jumpers. I like Jordan Farmars but doubt he'll do much.

World Peace is such a fun guy. He likes LA I bet he'd join the Clippers in a heart beat for minimum if they pick him up. Damn shame. Should have amnesty Mike D'Antoni instead :troll:

Reddick is a smart player and a dead-eye shooter, while Dudley is an athletic wing who is solid defensively.

I do agree that both Reddick and Dudley are solid pros, but in a PG's league where the difference in winning and losing on most nights boils down to holding the opposing team's PG under control.... to have a guy like Bledsoe coming in when Chris checks out, the constant harassment all game long of the other team's PG's, unmatched, last season there wasn't a 2 guard defensive punch as sick as these 2 guys and what they did to teams nightly basis. There's a reason Bledsoe earned the nickname mini LeBron....
you know what though, as bummed out as I am about him leaving, I'm really looking forward to seeing him finally get some more minutes.

I just hope that they can at least get some sort of defensive scheme going this season where it's a team effort, I have faith in Doc.... I know all too well about offensively talented teams who won't or can't play defense, that being their downfall, I'm playing on a team like that right now currently, lol

[roflwaffle604]

darren collison as backup pg for the clips ain't too bad. there are worse options out there

[G-spec]

^ yea for sure, hope he gets his shit together..... I remember watching him step in for Chris back in NOLA when Chris got hurt, Collison ended up dropping 22 dimes that night.... he couldnt get it together in Dallas unfortunately, that whole organization has been a mess since they won the Chip


also guys, there is a House of Hoops opening where Athletes World used to be right beside Superstore in Metrotown, opening on July 17th.... supposedly it's gonna be a legit HOH like they have in the States, worth checkin out

[Obsideon]

Bledsoe wasn't gonna get the minutes behind Chris and they won't be able to keep him next season, getting ANYTHING back was better than letting him walk. JJ can heat up from beyond the arc and he has gotten stronger over the years. Dudley can still play too.

[411ken]

So if the lakers stand pat now..who the fk would be their SF.. I guess it will be small ball this season

Nash/Kobe/Young/Gasol/Kaman - Farmar/Blake/Meeks/Hill/Morris/Sacre/Ebanks

I have a feeling it's gonna be a longgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg season for my beloved lakers lol

If they grab odom and he's in shape then that would be better

Nash/Kobe/Odom/Gasol/Kaman - Young as the 6th man

[bballguy]

Starting line-up for the majority of the season will probably be something along the lines of:

Nash
Meeks
Young
Kaman
Gasol



Mavs, Ellis, closing in on 3-year, $30-mill deal.

It's a low risk high reward type of signing.. that's about it.

I know the lakers are getting older now so I wish they would "tank" the season (it's weird using lakers and tank on the same sentence) and maybe get lucky then nab either Wiggins or Parker.
Kobe should just get healthy and he can still be effective in 2014/2015 season...

He's a shooter that can't make a shot....he wasn't a freshman coming out so his potential was most likely realised in college, and he doesn't do anything else great. Plus he was injured and Kahn loaded the team with swingmen and guards.

The Lakers should find a way to injure both Gasol and Nash, pay Kobe some extra under the table money and convince him they'll go get Lebron/Melo, and let Nick Young be PG so he can shoot first on all possessions. And give Sacre shitloads of minutes. They need to be in the top 5 in the coming draft. According to Chad Ford there are like 7 tier 1 guys (multi-time all stars/superstars)

Some examples:
Wiggins (obviously)
Jabari Parker
Harrison Twins
Aaron Gordon (Griffin 2.0)
Dario Saric

I'm surprised Julius Randle isn't on that list.. this guy is a BEAST! I could see him going top 3 (maybe even 2 surpassing Parker).. I also like Gordon's game.. the guy can dunk/dribble/pass.. It'd probably go Wiggins - randle - parker or smart... one thing is for sure, this draft is gonnna be a good one.. there's also that Marcus Smart kid...

The raptors should try to get both twins..lol... they can have the basketball version of the sedin twins :P

As for paying Kobe extra under the table...lol. they are already paying him 30million :P I like Nick Young but one downside for him is consistency.. if he's on, he could light it up.. if not, he shits the bed bigtime. With the young talent we both mentioned next year...I'd gladly take a tank from the lakers next season :P

I could dunk till I was in my early 20's, I def can't anymore at 30 because I got fat and rarely use those muscles but I wouldn't mind another 6 inches. Plz no "that's what she said".

Gary Payton is entering the hall of fame this sunday.

Toned-down Payton diligently prepares for big moment | NBA.com (http://www.nba.com/2013/news/features/scott_howard_cooper/09/05/hall-of-fame-gary-payton-profile/index.html?ls=nbahpfull4)

Moment like this remind me how awesome the sonics used to be and how much fun the 90s and early 2000s nba were. Players could trash talk and celebrate without getting an automatic T or ejection. Defense was actually played, it was a man's game back then.

So here's a tribute to the sonics and the most dynamic duo in my bias mind, GP and reignman.

Flew down to LA last year and caught both Lakers and Clipper games, hoping to do the same this year!

his first point back was sick af haha, he grabbed his own rebound and went hard, his gameplay looks weird to me now though, but im guessing its rustiness

How was the experience Lakers game vs Clippers game? I might fly down there this year to check it out as well.

[fishCak3s]

I like the cilpper game better, it is much cheaper too.
1 of the laker upper bowl row 2 corners are almost the same as 2 lower bowl row 5 at the baseline for the clipper game

For the Clipper game, you know something will happen with BG running down the court with CP3 and DJ; and it feels like the players are enjoying themselves. I actually want to watch them play and put on a show

Laker game was alright but I guess I paid just because I want to see the players in person.

Brandon Roy had knee surgeries on both knees way back in college and he rushed his return during his last injury with the Blazers, whereas this is Rose's first ever major surgery. With (more) modern tech, much greater care, Rose should be fine. Players have aches and pains all the time but it's just magnified with Rose (and in a much smaller case, Oden)

The difference between Roy's and Rose's has nothing to do with previous injuries, technology, rushing back, or anything else you mentioned....

...in fact, Roy's injury wasn't even so much of an injury as it was a disease....

reminder to everyone participating in the RS fantasy basketball pool this year, draft is tomorrow night at 8pm

[411ken]

Damn.. missed joining this.. how did the draft go? let's see the first 2 rounds or something :P

[dlo]

fuck forgot there was a draft lol missed it again

[411ken]

Also.. I'm glad that the nba finals format is now 2-2-1-1-1 rather than 2-3-2. This should make things better.

Now, I hope they have changed the seedings format as well. Last time an 8th seed beat the 1st seed, they went on to play the 4th seed in 2nd round while the 2nd seed had to play the 3rd.. that's just stupid! it's rare but it could happen :P

[dachinesedude]

who missed the draft and got a weak team? fuuuuu

[123654123]

well yea...thats the rewards of beating the #1 seed
#1/#8 bracket are matched up with #4/#5 because of the assumption that #1 seed will win and will always match up with a lower seed throughout the playoffs
it would be retarded if they rearranged the brackets after the 1st round just cause of an upset

but yea going back to 2-2-1-1-1 for finals is great...imo previous format put too much pressure for #1 overall seed when they lose a home game in the first 2 games...a much higher chance of not playing on home court again haha

[KuSouL]

Jrue Holiday
Paul George
OJ Mayo
Andre Iguodala
Al Horford
Andre Drummond
Brook Lopez
Nene Hilario
DeAndre Jordan
Mario Chalmers
Nate Robinson
Mo Williams
Iman Shumpert

yes I have no intention of winning FT% but I am very happy with my team

I think quite a few people missed the draft, most notably "Van City's Team" with both Kobe and Westbrook who, even injured, are still the best picks on the team ... BUT if it wasn't auto and you actually drafted them HEY it could work, props to you for taking the gamble

[411ken]

Why would they always assume that #1 always beat #8...sure it's rare to see an upset in nba..but i think it's dumb personally.. if you come in 8th, you should have the hardest path to the finals.. thus having you face #2 or whoever is the highest seed after. but that's just my opinion

Yeah, I disagree...What about the 2nd seeded team? If I was the second seeded team, would I want to play the team that just knocked off the 1st seeded team? Hell no....Sounds to me like that's creating a harder path for the second seed....

Playoffs are all about who is hot at the end of the year. If the 8th seed knocks off the 1st seed, chances are that they peaked at the right time and second seed probably does not want to face them...

[411ken]

I guess my mindset is different lol

If say last yrs playoffs. The bucks upset the heat. Knicks get by the 7th seed. If I were the Knicks, I'd rather face the bucks than the pacers who sits 3rd

But that's just my opinion.

There's a simple bug on the League Pass site, which does not restrict any non-subscribers from watching the direct links to already played games. As it blew up on reddit yesterday, I thought I'd share it with the best b-ball community, too. Been using it for quite a while and it works perfectly; however, it doesn't work for live games, but for Internationals like myself who only watch the games the morning after or whatever because they don't like to stay up all night, it's perfect.

So here's what you gotta do.

Here's an example link for the Knicks-Bulls game: http://nlds120.cdnl3nl.neulion.com/n...ole_1_3000.mp4

If you paste that link into the open stream function of your standard VLC or quicktime player, you are able to watch the game. Or if you're on mobile just click THIS LINK and try it out.

So, the link structures consist of the following

nlds120.cdnl3nl.neulion.com/nlds_vod/nba/vod/A/B/C/D/2_D_E_F_2013_h_whole_1_G.mp4.m3u8

A Year played
B Month
C Date played (If it's a day such as the 5th, enter 05)
D NBA League Pass ID (you can find that by hovering over the game you want to watch on NBA TV | NBA.com (http://watch.nba.com) , it will look like this one 21300018)
E Away team initials (you can find that on the NBA website)
F Home team initials (you can find that on the NBA website)
G Bitrate (These range from 400, 800, 1600, 3000, 4500 - from lowest quality to highest)

Hope some of you guys can watch some of your favourite teams because of this simple bug, which is basically a product of them being to lazy to fix it (believe me, it would be veryyy easy to fix and it has been like that for years).

GSW vs LAC http://nlds120.cdnl3nl.neulion.com/nlds_vod/nba/vod/2013/10/31/21300019/2_21300019_GSW_LAC_2013_h_whole_1_3000.mp4

I think quite a few people missed the draft, most notably "Van City's Team" with both Kobe and Westbrook who, even injured, are still the best picks on the team ... BUT if it wasn't auto and you actually drafted them HEY it could work, props to you for taking the gamble

Yes, in my draft i had it ordered to pick those 2 in that way. Westbrook I expected to be back very quickly and kobe, well let's just say it's a gamble i'm willing to take. In fact, Westbrook cleared to play and will be playing tonight. Things are starting to look a bit better for my fantasy squad.

Those were your first 2 picks? That's pretty bad....You could've scored Westbrook in 4th-5th round and Kobe in the 3rd-4th round.....It won't break your team, but defs not good picks if you did in fact take them 1st and 2nd.

^ yah thats pretty obvious. I set my player rankings and then when looking at the draft outcomes, realized it would draft my list as next available player. My first fantasy league, but no excuses.
