Official NBA 2018-2019 Thread - the end of the regular season is near

You reach, I teach on the playgrounds...
That's a foul in the NBA all day long

You don't play defense or assume a defensive position with your hands outstretched in front of you...

Reaching and teaching is referred to when trying to steal the ball.

Kawhi could be in the position below and not move. Lebron has no intention on shooting the ball.

But he sees Kawhi’s left arm, throws his arms under his and attempt to shoot so that he can draw a foul. That’s not a real foul.

Great angle!

LeBron can't swipe thru fast enough to get Leonard's hand. Also Leonard is playing him to go right, which is into the heart of the SA defense.

There were calls tonight where the guys had BOTH hands directly in front of them and reaching at Harden. That's a easy call to make when he goes thru with the ball.

You can be upset all you want, that's a foul.

I’m not upset, it’s not a basketball play so I don’t believe it’s a foul.

Also, Lebron’s quick enough to throw his arms into Kawhi’s.

Just like below, that shouldn’t be called a foul.

Let's just agree to disagree

Manu threw his arms up against a defender acting like he was shooting only to draw a foul.

You and the NBA call that a foul.

In real life basketball, that shouldn’t be called a foul.

 

[spider705]

And in that picture you posted, if LeBron comes thru with the ball Leonard's left hand goes straight up in the air to contest the shot.

Like I said, LeBron not fast enough to get to Leonard's hand.

Players are jumping into a players arm and not even looking at the basket. They’re just trying to get a fouls called.

Like you said, we’ll just agree to disagree.

 

[2 ONE 3]

That game was crazy bro


CP3 a real hoe for putting his finger in rondos face

Rondo connected with the left


B. I. And melo getting into it


Man that shit was wild

 

[M.H.C.]

It's officially Sunday so let's try this again...……..



On the 2nd game of a back-to-back.

Time to show the Jazz how you're supposed to do it.

 

[gene cisco]

Lakers 0-2. Fuck it. Don't feel so bad that the Cavs have the same record.

 

[VWchrisATL]

I’ve yet to see where Rondo spit on that man...

 

[Day_Carver]

Lakers gonna to lose a lot of games trust that; These so called experts and fans thinking the Lakers gonna be a top 4 seed need to chill on that talk...

 

[Day_Carver]

I’ve yet to see where Rondo spit on that man...

Havent seen it either; but Paul did wipe his face; so I assume something was on it; him and rondo will get like 3 games; Ingram needs to get like 10; and I dont see how anyone continues to compare Ingram to KD; its no comparison in any way.....

Should be a fine and one game suspension. Only black players get 10 games for a lil scuffles

 

[Amajorfucup]

5 pages for a regular season game in October ?

 

[Amajorfucup]

Ok..Now I see why...

And I guess I'm the only one to see CP3 catch Rondo with a vicious uppercut.

 

[Amajorfucup]

You're supposed to earn minutes not be handed it. The team plays better with ReDICK. It's pretty obvious to everyone.

Fagghette.

Good ball movement

Fagitt.

 

[Darrkman]

 

[Rollie_Fingaz]

I still don't understand Ingram

And him confronting the ref.

Then running to hit CP3.

Lake Show. Anyone that thinks this team won't be apart of storylines come playoff time is delusional as fuck.

At the current pace , they won't make the playoffs. Not sure what part of the "storyline" that will be tho.

They are a lock for a deep playoff run.

 

[Rollie_Fingaz]

I think they'll make the playoffs but they're a player away from a deep playoff run. (Or at least until they tighten up defensively)

I agree. Mid season changes will be made.

 

[Eclipse99]

I agree. Mid season changes will be made.

Yep and tighten up the rotations. They need to let Josh Hart be the legitimate starting 2guard. KCP needs to be a basic backup. Go find another big.

I wouldnt be surprised if Kuzma, Ball, or Ingram is traded by the trade deadline.

 

[Complex]

I remember when Lonzo got killed for his disinterest in a little skirmish last year

Lebron did far worse, he didn't even seem to acknowledge his own team. He seemed like a Rocket last night.

I'm meh on the whole Lebron thing, I'm looking at him like Karl Malone right now.

Rondo and Ingram have to be looking at him a certain way.

Yes you are the only person that saw CP land a "Vicious" uppercut.

At the current pace , they won't make the playoffs. Not sure what part of the "storyline" that will be tho.

You're right, they're 0-2 now. If they continue at this pace they'll lose every single game and the will miss the playoffs.

 

[ak_rep]

Looks like a spit flop unless Melo got him. But I'm a little disappointed in Rondo. This isn't the Celts man. Set himself back again.

 

[Complex]

Yeah, CP3 landed a couple of punches, but he was being held back so they didn't really have anything behind them. Rondo's first punch connected.

Floyd's reaction of joy was funny. He seemed like a kid on Christmas.

My even wife picked up on that last night.

She said “which team LeBron on because right now he looks like a Rocket.”

 

[doggish_098]

I fell asleep on the Lakers games last night when I woke up the game was over was I dreaming or did I hear one of the espn talking heads say something to the nature of “the lakers would be better if Lebron was coming off the bench”

 

[Mack1052]

5 games

15
