New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

When D'Andre sits, KD becomes the center, a point center and how's that for their 'small ball' as they shipped out my favorite in the Nets , Afro Allen.
With their big 3 playing, I often find myself looking for the other 2 when 1 has the ball and is trapped. It's like a 3-man show!
I have been hopeful from the start of the season but that news on Klay was just a killer, just like that of Hayward. One thing I really hope to see is Draymond gets back his shooting touch from their title years. Warriors surely need him to do 15 ppg. Wiggins needs to produce the numbers of Klay and Oubre needs to produce that of Harrison Barnes. And now they have a sleek promising center who can shoot from short range. Hopeful.
I observed that too. Their big 3 are relatively 'older' and it showed against the young Cavs who were running around like bugs, and Harris and Jeff Green aren't really Patrick Beverly or Draymond Green types. They need a Morris twin type.
The Nets don't play defense IMO . It is a typical Steve Nash, Mike D'Antoni run and gun offense and whomever has the most points at the end of the game wins. I wonder where Nash learned that type of gameI observed that too.

I agree with Jack about the Warriors. Oubre is a real star and Klay's absence is heart wrenching for the team but I believe they will find themselves in the mix at season end
Big game to watch tonight is Lakers vs Bucks. The Lakers as well have been playing poor to sloppy defense and have been giving up big leads, the last to the Warriors who hung on to win
I expect both teams to be up for this one

They need to trade for Spoestra, but they need to get Riley too.ThenNets don't play defense IMO . It is a typical Steve Nash, Mike D'Antoni run and gu offense and whomever has the most points at the end of the game wins. I wonder where Nash learned that type of game
Hard to win a 7 game series via a shootout even though their trio can score 90 points a night. Too bad we're not going to see Dinwiddie make a 4 horsemen. With pure shooter Harris , that will really be the 5 horsemen of the apocalypse. 
I love Jarrett Allen's retro '70s fro, it brings back memories of when I first start watching the NBA.they shipped out my favorite in the Nets , Afro Allen.
Who was your favorite player from the '70s?
None other than the top all time leading scorer of the NBA, KAJ.
He had a mini fro, and those side burns - menacing. But most of all I love that sky hook so much I used to practice doing it, to no success, so I moved on to Pistol Pete's shot.
I was already a Celtics fan by then, which started with seeing Sam Jones draining virtually every shot he attempted, but the Celtics were out of it in the early 70s but I still watched those battles of Kareem and Willis Reed and Wes Unseld. Then Havlicek and Cowens came along and gave us 2 titles at the middle of the decade, one of them against Kareem and the Bucks.
My favorite fro from the '70s is Dr. J. But my favorite player from the '70s is none other than Lloyd "World B" Free.
Yeah, Word Free. I guess he's called World because he can shoot from out of the world. Lol
And look at that form. Ball on the side of the ear. I think Jamaal Wilkes did that first.
These two teams are evenly matched and I would be hard pressed to predict who would come out oof a best of 7. I still think Lakers but the Bucks are dropping 3's from everywhere with ease
Of all the changes the Lakers made in this brief off season that I feel was the weakest was getting rid of Dwight Howard and Java McGee for Marc Gasol
Gasol is nothing more than a big guy now. He lacks speed and he is not there to be a scorer because he isn't one of those

I remember the Bucks' defense was quite good when Coach Bud took over a few years ago. Seems to be quite loose nowaways.
