Go suck a . Opening day is when the Lakers play.
Sup luva? How's life as the Ghost of Gashir this morning?
All 3 home team wins ... Cavs probbably have the best shot as a road dog ...because of LeBron.
Thanks bene, was about to make a similar thread...![]()

Dude... stoppl behaving like a sissy.
Sup, EL. If it wasnt for the haters I would wish you well on a good season. El, you throw your shots at Lakers/Kobe. But you don't go overboard with the ridiculous and make good game thread posts. you are cool in my book even if we disagree from time to time.
Ok enough with the pleasantries. I look forward to watching my nicca Russ dunk on the SPURS front-line come Wednesday, For durant to drop 30 on Kiwi And The Sege to swat Tony and slap his member on Tony's forehead in the aftermath ...
As the Lakers beat Minny ...![]()
You guys got some pieces at least to make the games watchable, tbh, which is much better than what it's been the last couple of seasons, IMO.
Good to hear you're doing well, and yeah, as the season starts.... FTL![]()

It's all good, El. Weird that neither of our teams playing opening night. Most years since 1999 SPurs or Lakers were defending champs and even when not one of us (usualy us) was playing opening night. Should be a great season if we still arent very good. Last year was disgusting. Im hoping I can leave the "tank" at the base all year. she has been really busy the past two seasons ...
I suspect the Spurs will come out of the gate a bit flat, tbh... might play great some games, but suck terribly on others... it's gonna take some time to assemble everything...
That's a departure from previous seasons where we used to use the familiarity we had to start off with a great record. I think this season we're more like most teams that take a while to figure things out. We have an exciting roster though...
I know the excitement is tied to LMA but as a somewhat neutral party I think Kiwi is the bigger and better story. he just won DPOTY and was ranked 7th by ESPN insiders even over Blake Griffin who was a top MVP candidate just a few seasons ago.
IDK, I really like Kiwi but that is pretty big role as a top player on a le contender for him to mature in to and the 7th best player in the NBA. (he was just a high level starter when he won Finals MVP). I think so far he has met or exceeded expectations but now the pressure to be a possibly a #2 or #1 ... it will be interesting to see how he adjusts.
I am not a Tyreke fan but you guys got him to play well last year ... with him down Jrue not a 100% backcourt play will be a problem. I think Gordon regained his confidence and stroke he will need to play well.
Tyreke is out 6-8 weeks. Pondexter, Cole, and Asik are also out with injury.
Damn. well Davis can begin his MVP campaign by hanging with the champs. I think Davis will put up video game numbers but you guys needs to get a top 4/5 seed in West for him to win it ...
Atl over Detroit; Chicago over CLE; Warriors over Pelicans..

yeah! Finally...I've been more excited for this season than any other I can remember.
Tomorrow will be awesome with 14 ing games.
David Thorpe, RocketsI actually think Ty Lawson is a great get and I am less critical of Harden than most fans who arent Rox homers, but . if the Rox win a le this year I will buy a Dwight Howard jersey and post the pic here on Spurstalk of me wearing it.
5 real legit contenders in my book:
1. Dubbs
2. Spurs
3. Cavs
4. OKC
5. Clips as my darkhorse but I said the same last year ...and maybe Rox can overtake them ...but I doubt it.
Is it just me or does LBJ look skinny af?
