NBA Talk

[King-Gutho94]

Lol, no thanks.
I'm not much of an AFL fan, but I've got a mate who is a mad Western Bulldogs fan so I watch some of their games sometimes (though I can never say "Go Dogs" as it goes against every cell in my body).

I don't follow soccer at all. If I did I know I would pick one of those teams that is never any good, but probably won't get relegated either. Like Crystal Palace or something.

Follow my side Fulham

Good battling club in West London everybody loves and nobody hates.

Craven Cottage one of best football stadiums that brings the community together in London on the River Thames

Staying in the premier league is basically winning the premier league for Fulham.

Johnny Furphy has minutes in 2 games so far this season. Yet to score 0 from 3 on shots. Got 2 rebounds

Josh Giddey doing pretty well for Chicago this season.
Averaging 13 points, 7 assists, 6 rebounts per game. Bulls as a team have been pretty average though.

Patty Mills played his 900th NBA game last week. He's still bloody going.

Yeah Giddey's numbers aren't too bad especially given he isn't playing huge minutes. Like at OKC, they don't seem to want him on the court down the stretch...

Is it his defence?
I haven't watched him very closely last couple of years, TBH.

I think it's his shooting. Teams will happily foul him and get to the line if things are tight....

Less his free throws (although it’s bad so far this year) but his 3 point shooting. They don’t need to defend him as aggressively which means they can be more aggressive on the good shooters.
Also his defence isn’t great.
It’s kind of like Ben Simmons. Although his shooting is a lot worse, but his defence is high level which oddly isn’t discussed in counter to his poor shooting.
Kerr and Curry kind of f**ked the league for them. I think we’ll eventually see the 3 point line increased

Yep, good call that...

Maybe it’s this year he turns it around. He isn’t a bad shooter, just they don’t fall for him. Good on him knocking down a couple today.

The Ben Simmons effect.

Even though Giddey is a much better shooter than him and seems to be improving.

If you want to go, then we should go, she said.

Watched a video on Doncic pointing out his lazy defence. Predicted he’ll end up being another Harden.

FMD that’s ridiculous.
I’ve been to a few NBA games and never had to pay that much. Most I paid was around $100 for a Lakers/Kings game at Staples Centre. Was about 10 years ago though.

Terrible defender.
Seems like a much better teammate and locker room influence than Harden though.

 

[T.S Quint]

Well, after a shocking start to the season, the Bucks are back in business. 6 in a row now.

Have a tough December coming up. A lot of away games.

 

[hineyrulz]

The Nicks should try and sign the Greek Freak.

f**k off!
He’s all we’ve got, ffs!

Forgot to mention that Johnny Furphy has scored in the NBA. Surely Boomers call up imminent
