Thanks for your input, I know I posted a while back that he had been signed to a non guaranteed deal.Fly4Fun;1650693 wrote:Off topic... I fucking hate this expression. I'm sure lhslep is thankful he has your permission to think for himself.

And he just signed a more guaranteed deal. So your response is not only untimely, but also unnecessary.robj55;1650881 wrote:Thanks for your input, I know I posted a while back that he had been signed to a non guaranteed deal.

I hate watching Harden play. It's like vomit on a basketball court.

lol, I can see how people don't like him....but I'm a fan. He is the definition of a junk baller and then throw in some old man game.

DWade and Early in Career Blake Griffin are still the least enjoyable players to watch ever IMO. Just straight trash.friendfromlowry;1652399 wrote:I hate watching Harden play. It's like vomit on a basketball court.

I'm done watching the NBA after hearing that all NBA owners are racists who think of their players as slaves.

The whole Hawks situation is pure genius by the owner. Basically, I think the guy wants to sell and doesn't want to deal with the NBA red tape so he comes out as a racist to prevent the NBA from stopping him.
Also, if any person with a brain read the email, it's not racist at all. His comments were simply stating how to attract more white people since they tend to spend more money at the games. Apparently, trying to attract a certain demographic is racism if that demographic is white males. Seriously, when are minorities going to grow up?

Man some of these NBA experts are crazy, Ric Bucher picked the Cavs to finish 4th in the East and win only 50 games. They won 66 years ago with a much worse roster and a terrible offensive head coach.

I don't expect them to come out of the gate like gangbusters, although it would be a pleasant surprise, but I don't expect them to be 4th best either.

People are wayyyy to high on Chicago, they are going to be very good but I see all these experts picking them to go to the finals, don't see it. Rose is still too much of an unknown.

Eh I think Chicago will be pretty damn good. #1 or #2 in the east.

Yeah, if Rose can stay healthy they should be in the East finals with the Cavs.

Chicago has the best coach in the East in Thibs, the 2nd (maybe 3rd best with Love here now) best player in Noah, Jimmy Butler, Pau Gasol, Taj Gibson, Dougie McBuckets, wild card Nikola Mirotic, and Tony Snell. All of that is without even mentioning Derrick Rose. I'm with COA that Chicago is still really freaking good without being dependent on Rose being healthy. If he is, then the Eastern Finals are going to be a hell of a battle, on par with those OKC-SA series. If he's not, I can still see the Bulls in the Eastern Finals but I wouldn't pencil them in.

I've never been that high on Jimmy Butler, pretty good defender but not a good offensive player imo, more of a liability on that end imo. I'm assuming that they Will start Noah and Pau in the front court with Taj coming off the bench, that is the strength of their team along with being sound defensively. Rose will have to play up to all NBA levels for them to have a creator on offense and I don't see that happening, if he can even stay healthy. They will be very good though and the second best team in the East.lhslep134;1655026 wrote:Chicago has the best coach in the East in Thibs, the 2nd (maybe 3rd best with Love here now) best player in Noah, Jimmy Butler, Pau Gasol, Taj Gibson, Dougie McBuckets, wild card Nikola Mirotic, and Tony Snell.
