    The Real 2014-15 NBA Regular Season Thread

    Blatt sucks and should be fired.  Guy acts like he's won 1000 games in the NBA.

    Can't get enough Andrew Wiggins lately.  20 point streak ended last night on a back-to-back vs. SAS, but he still dropped 18 PTS on 11 shots.  It is night and day, him now vs. the first 20 games or so.  I can't believe he is shooting almost 40% from three this year.   Some interesting pieces on...

    The whole Mark Jackson saga is crazy, I can't think of anything like it.  No one has taken anything away from him.  Mark Jackson is an average coach who thinks he is some sort of godsend, and seems to be really high maintenance (while also creating a hostile/dysfunctional relationship within the...

    The strides that Wiggins has made in his game in just half the season is amazing.  His post game is already really, really good for his age.  Great mechanics on his jumper.  All this kid seems to need is minutes and time.  Excited to see where he goes.

    Dion Waiters dealt; Cavs, Thunder, Knicks involved

      Try being a Raptors fan before this year.  Pretty sad that this year is going to be the pinnacle of the Raptors existence.

    Has anyone seen that Okafor kid play yet?  Is he has good as his (recent) stats suggest?

      Derrick Rose is the hugest NBA MVP sham since ____________________ ?   Jimmy Butler this year (small sample size) has been every bit as good as Rose the year that Rose won MVP.  Actually so crazy that LBJ didn't win that year -_-

    Rajon Rondo admits his effort on defense hasn't been there in recent seasons

    I wish more players were honest like that.  I wish Kobe would come out and say "yeah I haven't earned any of the defensive team awards the past 7-8 years".  So much around good/bad defence is based on reputation, especially for non-bigs.  Love could become a respectable defender and it would...

    Kobe Bryant says European players more skilled then Americans, blames AAU

    This is the most idiotic thing that I have ever read.

    Dion Waiters dealt; Cavs, Thunder, Knicks involved

    Even if JR Smith simply tries on D and shoots around 40% from 3, he'll be useful for the Cavaliers.

    Dion Waiters dealt; Cavs, Thunder, Knicks involved

    Is Jackson not in the deal?  Would make no sense unless picks were going there way which it'd make no sense for NY/CLE to send.

    Dion Waiters dealt; Cavs, Thunder, Knicks involved

    If the Cavs get 12-13 Shump, this is a huge home run.  I originally read JR as the only incoming which would've been hilarious.  I think taking on JR is the cost of getting Shump who could be an elite 3+D guy.  Waiters suck and was a net negative.   Tristan-Love-LBJ-Shump-Kyrie FTW.   I'm pumped...

      Beverley has to keep shooting.  He is a huge key for them - he has to be a 40% 3 shooter and the only way he is going to get there is by continuing to shoot in games and in practice.  He's still over 40% on the year while averaging 6 a game which is a great clip.  He was ridiculously hot in...

    For example:  Ross+Patterson (maybe best 3 shooting big in the NBA)+Bruno (prospect) +fillers+Raps pick this year + Knicks pick for Love should at least make them think about it if they're not sure about him staying.  Not sure that deal makes the Raps better, but those are the types of players I...

      I feel like the Love angle was a huge deal maker for LeBron.  Obviously I don't know for sure, but it must have been.  Do you think they don't pull the trigger if they draft Embiid instead?     If Cavs are unsure if Love will stay, they should really consider moving him for good, young role...

      Jimmy Butler so far this year is better than Paul George.  He'd probably lock in on defence which would be fun.  Can't believe the jump in Butler's game though - can't help but wonder if it is unsustainable.  The minutes that Bulls players play is unacceptable in this day and age.

    Will Blatt get fired at some point this year?
