2016-2017 NBA Season Thread [ARCHIVED] Basketball • Page 64

I love you LeBron, but come on man.

 

I like this guy already.

 

Dekker lookin' kinda decent

 

dekker was a baller in college (wisconsin biased), but i think he can contribute in doses in the NBA. he might not be a starter level player, but a good rotational piece.

and glad the wolves haven't made any risky moves to try and improve immediately as they will have to pay (if they do), when wiggins/lavine contract is up in two years.

 

Kris dunn is kind of a monster, him and Simmons should take shooting a class

 

is he balling it up in summer league tonight?

 

Hes doing everything but getting his shot in lol as expected

 

yeah if he gets his shot consistently down sooner rather than later, hello starting line up

 

I doubt you'll see him in any lineup with Rubio lol unless its to close out a game on the defensive side maybe

 

oh yeah i definitely meant that would end the rubio era. haha

 

would Rubio ever be okay being a backup?

I feel D'Antoni could be good for him

 

kinda late to give an input on durant (been moving the last week and off the grid) but i don't hate him for signing with GSW. from his perspective it is understandable as signing with them gives him the best chance (on paper) to win a ring sooner rather than later. but now i feel like the team will be highly scrutinized if they drop consecutive games and/or don't win rings. but if they also get championships it won't mean as much since majority of people are going to expect it. basically i think it is a lose/lose situation aside from durant's personal goal of winning a ring.

 

if it was on a championship calibar team im sure he wouldn't have an issue. in interviews he is getting pretty restless with losing and just wants to win at this point.

 

They'd win a lot more games if he could shoot the basketball in the hoop

 

the kahn era didn't exactly help either

 

If only more people would do this.

 

The setup for the summer league is pretty sweet. I didn't realize you could walk back and forth between games.

Tyus Jones looked good in the little I watched of that game. Dunn was impressive as well.

 

Brandon Ingram looks awesome

 

This Rubio heresy in here needs to stop first of all.

also, Kris Dunn is the 2nd best player in the NBA behind KAT after tonight

 

I noticed Dunn was playing off the ball a lot last night. I wonder if they are planning on starting him and Rubio together.

 

Nah, why would you not start LaVine. Just summer league stuff.

 

I would definitely start LaVine and Dunn instead. Was just a curious observation.

But I'm in the trade Rubio crowd. I think Tyus Jones can handle to backup spot just fine.

 

I think that one wolves guy is the only staunch anti trade Rubio guy I've ever seen. Then again not something I look up that often *shrug*

 

yeah im the only wolves fan here that wants him traded, just because his and dunns play are too similar to have them both on the team. with the cap rise i also think rubios contract is more desirable in trades as well.

 

Out of the two of you? :P
