Around the NBA: 2022 The Preseason Is Here!

No, he is looking forward to playing off the ball

 

CJ was incredibly healthy and coming off a breakout performance in the playoffs. And you said Dame was the only starter-level player on the roster. Remember? You said we’d only win 23 games. You just don’t understand the game of basketball.

 

Nope. 100% healthy.

 

COmpletely outrageous. Anyone who understood basketball and had seen the playoffs and preseason knew that CJ was at MINIMUM a starter level player.

And that roster wasn’t garbage. They blew out the 73-9 Warriors. And made it to the second round of the playoffs.

 

No he wasn’t. Injured his foot in training camp and was slow to come back.
Doesn’t matter. At that point he had started a grand total of 3 games.

 

Do you always blame victims of violence? The guy could’ve been killed.

 

No he was not coming off an injury season. He was incredible in the playoff series vs Memphis the previous season. He had not started before, but people who actually know basketball knew he absolutely was starter-level.

 

It was his 3rd season. He showed in the playoffs that he was starter level talent. Since you don’t know basketball, you didn’t observe this and picked us to go 23-59. CJ scored 37 points in the first game of the season, making you look silly.

 

That roster made it to the second round of the playoffs.

 

He wasn’t coming off an injury. He was unstoppable in the playoffs. Grizzlies coach said so.

 

Poole was backing up when Green attacked. That’s not escalating.

 

Ok. And CJ ended up being a starting level player. So we had two on that ENTIRE team that was starting level. CJ did have a good playoff series. It was not outrageous to be unsure how he would do. Remember when Jeremy Lin exploded onto the scene for a short time?

Look at the rest of the players on that team. Complete trash and shows how impressive Dame. We wasted that season but not getting him help.

 

He did not injure himself in that training camp. We are talking about 2015, before the season started. CJ was healthy and not coming off an injury. HE PLAYED IN THE 2015 PLAYOFFS.

 

CJ was obviously a starter-level player to anyone who knew the game. HCP overreacts to famous names. Reminds me of when he thought the 2010-11 Heat would go 75-7. Anyone knows the game, knew that wasn’t happening. And he picked 15-16 Blazers to win only 23 games. I picked us to win 55. He said his pick would be closer. I bet him I would be closer and I won the bet handily. We all know what happened next.

 

Okay I looked it up. You are correct it was his rookie seasons that he dealt with the Jones fracture. My mistake.

 

Should we go back and start sharing some takes you have had? HCP knows the game. Stop.

 

Please don’t look mine up. I know I’ve clowned it a bit at times.

 

it's a real crowded clown train here....I might be the conductor

 

I'm the fucking caboose....eesh

 

He never had any bad takes ! Maybe a couple inaccurate projections at best !
