Spurs Aren't Winning a Title Because they've NEVER Been Able to String Together Back to Backs... REED Can't Tell You Who WILL Win it This Year, but it Definitely WON'T Be the Spurs.... REED:hammert:
Spurs will always be in the championship conversation as long as they're healthy. But to be honest, I didn't gave them a chance last season, I thought they blew their last chance in 2013 and look what happened. You can never count out the current champs unless they're the 2012 Mavericks.
REED's Only Seen Highlights, Honestly... Looking @ Some STATS, Andrew Wiggins has Been Killin' It, Obviously...Minnesota is a PERFECT Fit for Him...Close to his Home Country of Canada, ZERO Playoff Expectations...On Top of that, Dude Should Be MOTIVATED by Being Trade Bait...As Has Been the Case Already, Wiggins will Be a CONSTANT Fixture on NBA Highlight Reels, All Season Loooooooooong... Jabari Parker's Shooting % is LOWER than REED would Expect, But the SCORING is his Linchpin & he'll Get Acclimated...Dante Exum's STRUGGLING...Julius Randle's a Fucking MAN, Nearly Averaging a Double-Double in LESS than 23 Minutes a Game... Marcus Smart's Scoring & Shooting % Will Be Hit or Miss, but he'll Be an All NBA Level Defender, Amongst NBA Steals Leaders, Will Get MORE Blocks than a Guy his Size Should & Will Be Good for 6-7 Dimes a Game, from Day 1...Smart's a "Blue Collar" Player Playing in a Blue Collar City...Celtic Fans will Absolutely Fall in Looooooooooove w/His Effort & All Around Contributions, Guaranteed...

I was thinking this same thing today. With them losing Parson's I think they definitely miss the playoffs. Watched the Cav's-Heat game. Cav's are going to be a beast on the boards next season and Waiters looked good out there. Love was a beast. My prediction for him is a stellar regular season followed up by a horrible damn near disappearing act in the playoffs. Wade didn't do much as expected. He hit one 3 and missed like 2 others along with a few other jump shots. He had a few nice cuts to the basket though. Even without his youthful speed he still knows how to get into the lane. He was clearly holding back here. The one thing he still does well that often went underrated throughout his career was his deft passing. He must have had like 3 or 4 assits this game yet there was like 5 or 6 other nice passes that would have been assists if he had better teammates. Hell, Chris and Haslem [COLOR=#000000][FONT=verdana]both [COLOR=#000000][FONT=verdana]bricked a layup from a pass from him and got [COLOR=#000000][FONT=verdana]blocked or passed out of a couple others. Watching that game showed me one thing, I'm still a Heat fan and a D-Wade fan as I was rooting for [COLOR=#000000][FONT=verdana]both just like I always have. Also the Ennis kid and Napier kid look like good pickups, while Granger has [COLOR=#000000][FONT=verdana]been [COLOR=#000000]abysmal[FONT=verdana] shooting like 1 for 10 on 3's so far in the preseason.

I agree about Smart but I think Danny should move Rondo because the team won't be going nowhere for the next 3 or 4 seasons anyway and his presence will take minutes away from Smart. A two PG rotation will not work. Wiggins will have lots of fun playing with Rubio with lots of room to make mistakes and learn. He's very raw in terms of offense but he has a surprisingly good shooting form, and he defends very well. Jabari seems a bit lost but he should be getting the go-to guy tag soon enough.
The Heat will struggle to find out their new identity but they should get better by the all star break. I love what I'm seeing from the Cavs. That Bron/Love pick n pop is LETHAL. Very difficult to defend. You just have to choose between leaving Love wide open or letting Bron kill you with a drive. Choose your poison. Wade still seems disinterested. Maybe he'll pick up the intensity when the season starts, let's hope so. I like seeing a motivated Waiters. He reminds me sometimes of a younger Wade but with less athleticism/skills and a lot stronger.
Talking about Smart. Watch his awesome steal at 1:50 http://youtu.be/MRhWp_dKn9I?t=1m50s The kid is intense. He's a mix of Westbrook and Nate Robinson. He's a willing passer too.
Yeah San Antonio has never been a back to back team... So if history repeats itself, it won't be them... I actually am gonna go out on a limb and say that the CLIPPERS will win the championship this year. We all know about CP3's playoff "mishaps" but I think the Clips have the talent, youth, and depth to do it. OKC has already started off bad with Durant's injury and if Westbrook's injuries start to act up as well... We already know they're not that deep a team. Cleveland seems to be everyone's choice to win the championship this year and they do have an easier path than any of the western teams... But we don't know how well those guys will play together to win a quick championship just like that.
Let's see how Westbrook responds with Durant out for two months. We'll have a glimpse of what will happen after Durant becomes a FA.
Not a Bad Analogy, Actually... Smart'll Never SCORE like Westbrook & he's NOT Quite as Athletic as Westbrook/KryptoNATE, but he's EVERY BIT as Competitive as They Are & Like Them, he WILL NOT Back Down from Anybody, No Matter What... Smart's SNEAKY Athletic Though...In a High School Game, REED Saw Him Jump OVER a Guy (Similar to How Bron Jumped Over John Lucas II), to Block Another Dude's Shot...1 of THE Greatest Defensive Plays REED's EVER Witnessed... Smart's Comparable to A LOT of Players...A More Offensive Minded Tony Allen...A More Defensive Minded, More Athletic Joe Dumars...A Poor Man's Version of a PRIME DWade...And Westbrook/Nate Robinson, as You've Stated...

Any of you guys seen the Uncle Drew video's on youtube where Irving dresses up like an old man and goes play pick up ball and schools everyone?
yea man those are pretty cool. did you ever seen the commercial with michael jordan and spike lee, where spike lee is known as "mars blackmon"?
Yeah man I saw all those :: I'm not a young buck. Thing is, being stationed over seas I've probably missed most of the commercials the last 4 years or so. I had to go on youtube just to see the Cliff & Chris Paul commercials.
There's Actually an Uncle Drew Commercial Where he Searches for an Old Teammate of His, Who is Played by Kevin Love...He Finds him & they Both Tear Up the Nearest Playground Hoop Game...This Commercial HAS to Be 3-4 YEARS Old... Ironic that Irving & Love Will Now REALLY Be Teammates... REEDopcorn:
Wow Steve Nash playing for the Lakers enhances the Phoenix Sun medical staff's legacy. I mean those guys were already considered the best in the league by a huge margin but as soon as Nash left he couldn't stay on the foor for less than a few weeks at a time.
Freaking Joel Embid tweeted Kim Kardashian for a date because apparently he didn't know she was married to Kanye. So he apologizes and moves on to ask Rihanna for a date on freaking tweeter. This guy is obviously clueless when it comes to women. What's the over under on how soon some chick suckers his clueless ass into getting her pregnant? 2 weeks after opening night? 1 month? What do you guys think?
Undoubtedly, He'll End Up w/NO Fewer than 7-8 Kids, 6-7 Baby Momma's... Like REED Said in Regards to Adrian Peterson, on the NFL Thread, Dudes on that Level Don't Have ABSURD Amounts of Children BECAUSE they Want To, it's Because they AREN'T SMART Enough to Prevent Themselves from Having Children.... BLINDED by the Ease of SEX (1nce they've "Made It", Of Course) , they Inevitably Get Caught Up... If a Bitch Says She's ON the Pill, Has an IUD or Whatever, they BELIEVE it & Gleefully Go In Bareback, Unbeknownst...9 Months Later???...TODAY'S Gold Digger has UPPED the Ante Beyond That...Bitch Will SUPPLY Condoms as a "Convenience" & an Athlete Will End Up Using the 1 She offers, NOT Knowing if She's Poked HOLES in it, HOPING to Be Impregnated by a Rich Motherfucker (Which MANY of them Do).... After All, Condoms "Only" Offer a 97.8%, or So, Guarantee, Right???... REED:hump:
