2017-2018 Official NBA Regular season
 

Let's start it... Warriors going for a back to back and 3 out of 4. Yikes for Gordon Hayward.

Yawn

Cleveland has the most talented roster of all time.

All-stars at every position.

Cleveland will be intriguing. Lotta star potential, Boston just got a lot weaker. Watching the west this year will be great.

Still gonna lose to the Warriors in the finals.

Still the warriors

Don't know if anyone saw Gordon Hayward breaking his ankle but it was pretty gruesome. I guess he is lucky it was just his ankle. 6 minutes in and changes the Celtics season.

Cavs whipping dat ass. Celts look like they are already tanking.

No Gordon Hayward... They need him to beat a team like the Cavs. He is probably out for a very long time too. Sucks...

I agree, I think it's probably the most talented team Lebron has ever had around him.

I also think they'll lose in the finals…

Boston making a game of it!

Golden State will destroy them again with their 2 actual MVPs, one defensive MVP, and the top SG in the NBA.

Suns are gonna be a force out West this year.

It is an All Star team of old guys

This game was suppose to be an easy night for Lebron but he already has 31 minutes

I am shocked. Boston showing a lot of heart this gm.

Probably would have had a shot at the Warriors in 2011.

A big issue for the Cavs in the first half of this season will be the fact that Derrick Rose is terrible and has the ball in his hands too much.

Well shit

Irving almost had it. Fudge

29-16-9 to start. I wonder if they will finally give LeBron MVP again this year.

sports is OK sometimes, thank christ

Good to see there is no hard feelings after all the drama. Classy by LeBron

Probably not considering how bad the East is

Also major props to Lebron and the Cavs players after the game. All class

If anyone can revive Rose it is LeBron. Remember how terrible Irvin was pre-LeBron? And then he had to tell everyone STFU I am point guard for a few games? LeBron is ridiculous.

If he does turn around Rose, he will go down as one of the best coaches ever. As a player.

At least until Rose blows a knee.

Nobody can say the man operates without class.

he would have lost tonight if hayward had not gotten hurt

lucky already

I'm sure he was worrying all summer about those Celtics too. What an unstoppable dynamo of a team they would have been.

Problem is Rose is a broken down shell of a player whereas Kyrie still hadn't reached his physical peak. Doubt he becomes any sort of a positive for them if he continues to take as many shots as he did tonight.

China Klay is killing it

1. Warriors
2. Cleveland
3. Spurs
4. Houston
5. Thunder
6. Who cares

I really loved Reggie Millers dumbass commentary.

You have to let Kyrie go one-on-one here.

No, no you don't.

Kyrie throws up airball.

Boston loses.

Hero ball is not the most effective way to win games, period. ESPECIALLY in the final moments when they can focus on one player more than ever.

Watch Lebron, Warriors, Spurs, Hawks. Spacing of the floor. Open man gets the ball. Less dribbling around into no where. That is how you win.

so it begins

God, I ****ing love basketball. It's just so much more entertaining than any sport out there. It's a god damn shame Kansas City has no pro team. Can we trade Sporting KC for the Sacramento Kings, or something?

I'm telling you, some NBA teams need to partner with smaller cities. Maybe not NY, LA, Chicago. But maybe teams like Minnesota, Orlando, Oklahoma City, Memphis. You'll always call them the Minnesota Timberwolves. But maybe 7 games a year, have home games in Des Moines and for just those games only call them the Des Moines Timberwolves. You can sell more apparel. You can fill some extra seats in the dog days of the season. You can gain fans in the long term. OKC could do Kansas City. Orlando could do Tampa. Memphis could do Louisville & so on.

Houston escapes.

No one bitched more about Kyrie than you.

Now all of the sudden Kyrie is a star that hasn't even reached his peak.

Cleveland has talent at pretty much every position.

By far the most talented roster in the league from the starters to the bench.

The Cavs exploited Kyrie, switching him into bad matchups. It was smart. Cavs when the gel should be scary.

Cavs are definitely better with these old names and I am curious to see how they stack up in the finals.

Anytime you can move that bum Tristan Thompson to the bench it's a win by itself. He was a STARTER last year and is TERRIBLE.

Can't wait to watch the Spurs beat the piss out of the TimberWolves tonight without Leonard... It's going to be great...

Interested to see how the 76ers do as well.

Awww how cute. You love me. You think about me non-stop.

Enjoy the ass kicking tonight

anyone really knowledgeable about the NBA have any clue how many games teh sac kings might win? I have a chance to win some money if they win 43 games or more but not sure if I should take the bet..

its chump change so I might do it anyway but is there any chance the kings can go .500 this season?

thanks in advance

You're gonna kick the asses of a Western Conference playoff team WITHOUT Kawhi or Parker?

Yeah, you might win. But it ain't gonna be a blowout. You guys are going to hurt bad without Kawhi on Jimmy Butler. And KAT is going to utterly rape Lamarcus Aldridge. Oof. That ain't gonna be fun for you.

The only significant advantage you have is Danny Green on Teague and most of your bench against ours. That's about it.

If it IS a blowout, I'll be very surprised.

Alright I got a little carried away but we should win. Spurs play best team basketball in the NBA and have the best coach. We'll be alright.

San Antonio has won 11 consecutive games against Minnesota, including all four meetings last season. The 11-game streak is tied for their second-longest active win streak versus any opponent.

They'll be better, but I'm not sure they crack .500.

Really looking forward to this game, along with the Bucks, and, honestly, most of the others. NBA is back!

Easier to look at the teams with worse rosters or that you think will finish under them in the standings in the West

Phoenix, Lakers, maybe Utah, maybe New Orleans, maybe Dallas.

The maybe teams have more studs but also just as much holes.

Kings have a good coach and they brought in some veterans to mix with their youth, but those vets are probably just cashing in on another payday. I can't see ZBO, Vince Carter and George Hill carrying them to 43 wins.

I was referring to what Kyrie was when LeBron got there (a 21 year old 3rd year player), not what he is now. Bit of a difference there compared to a guy with shot knees in Derrick Rose.

You still have Isiah Thomas, one of the best pgs in the NBA

Rose is a backup for Cle that would start on a number of teams. He's still a 15-16 ppg player.

Easily the best roster on paper of all-time.

:clap: Any type of win at Golden State is BIG! Congrats Rockets! But when it's all said and done, the Rockets will be the 3rd or 4th best team in the West. :shrug:

Yes...when he's actually back. Until then, they have a scrub playing PG that takes far too many shots for what he is these days.

Celts look good; not Bucks good, but good.

So 45 wins in the East good? The Raptors have been better than that for four years running. Doesn't mean all that much.

My God, the Suns are going to really suck this year

With Isiah do they have the best roster in the NBA?

* It wasn't nine games though. It was more like half the home games. Never knew when they were in town. Nine games in Omaha would have been okay.

Thanks for the advice...all

I appreciate it.

I took the bet anyway LOL.

Because chiefs

ROFL

Timberwolves garbage NBA franchise just like the RealSNRs and Pawnmovers posts...

Pennsyltucky Spurs "fan" who has never been to San Antonio is all butthurt by all the mean things I said about his dumbass butt****ing QB boyfriend.

I'LL SHOW HIM! THE TIMBERWOLVES?! BAHAHAHAHA!! THEY LOSE LOTS AND LOTS OF GAMES! I'M GOING TO LET HIM KNOW THAT HIS BASKETBALL TEAM ISN'T VERY GOOD! OH MAN I'M GREAT! I LOVE CRAIG POPOVICHSKY AND ALL THE GOOD SPURS PLAYERS LIKE DEMARCUS ALDRICH AND PATTY MAYONNAISE!!

Once again, you'll forgive me if I can't take you seriously due to your butt****ing idiotic football opinions and your amazing story of how you acquired your Spurs fan card.

Oh, and how the **** was I wrong about last night's game? You were so excited to blow out the Wolves. What happened?

I love you too.

But the Blazers may make some noise. Not that they will get very far in the post season against the super teams out there but should be a fun season!

Yep, lifelong Suns fan here. I mean, I didn’t expect them to do any good this season, but good lord that was embarrassing! I just don’t understand how that franchise has gotten so bad. It has to start with a sucky owner, front office, and head coach. Booker is their only star right now, but I don’t think they’ve got THAT horrible of a team.

Mesmerizing

That is crazy looking. They all turn, plant their right foot, and go in sync. Maybe they would have better luck as a dance troupe than a basketball team. :D

Hooray. Another exciting nba regular season has started.

Or, and hear me out on this, they may be robots and someone’s chubby, whiny six year old nephew with ADHD gets to run the remote.

Not even the most diehard of Cavs fans would believe that.

OKC look good tonight even though they played the Knicks. They are going to be extremely tough and I could see them in the Finals

Just imagine the reaction if LeBron did anything like this.

Warriors are so unlikeable

Keep your disgusting mouthguard in your ****ing face, Curry. Didn't you throw that shit into the crowd last year?

NBA should fine your ass every time you chew on it and show its disgusting contents to the world when you shoot free throws.

Twolves for real. Wiggins with the game winning 3 to beat OKC

Perfect.

Just perfect.

Andrew Wiggins with probably the biggest shot of his career.

Carmello, you smello.

Melo couldn't believe it. That was awesome and the Wolves deserved that win anyway they were beating them the whole game.

Pelicans squeak out versus the Lakers. I was beyond pissed that they cut Jordan Crawford for Jameer Nelson but now I see why. Ian Clark needs more run and they needed a true point to move the offense. I still think their biggest issue is Gentry. He needs to go.

Ish Smith. 29 yrs old. Already has been on 10 teams, a couple of them twice. Most underappreciated player in the NBA!

The Nets beat the Cavs lulz

Without Lin who ruined his knee and Russel also out tonight.

Huge Spurs fan here.
