Knicks · 14/15 Around the NBA Thread (page 1)

this is the place to talk about games and events going on around the nba this season...

I'm looking forward to watching the Raptors regressing and having a disappointing season

I'm looking forward to seeing how the Mavs do this season, and also the Suns. Also it'll be interesting to see how Bosh performs as the lead guy on the Heat.

I'm interested in quite a few teams

Pacers and OKC losing main guys

Mavs and Bulls as they have the pieces to win it all

Pelicans and Boston I think will be much better than advertised

This season has many plots and subplots

You have to pay for ballstreams but you can stream it to your tv. It is essentially like league pass. You make a donation, $59.00 for six months and you can watch games live or on demand. You also can choose the broadcast. They have it set up so that if you have a roku, xbox, playstation etc. you can stream the game to your tv. I have a wired roku 3 and the games are in hd. It is pretty awesome in my opinion. There is a youtube video or two about it and you can go on their site and view and ask questions.

Go to wizwig forums, download free legit sopcast, watch all games high quality stream

Around nba 2015:

WoElves, no playoffs

Bucks, ain't nothin,

Season preview---

opening night 10/28:

magic @ pelicans
mavs @ spurs
rockets @ lakers

Id say this season is more open than in the past. The east is WIDE open.

just couple thoughts

- Improved but not ready to make a leap yet
Charlotte - small frontline
New Orleans - Asik helps defense
New York - better culture
Dallas - more depth
Portland - got lucky last yr with no injuries to a thin team

- Taking a step back
Phoenix - no big men
Houston - no depth
Portland -
Atlanta - cant rely on Horford or Teague

- Ready for next level
Washington - elite backcourt
Toronto - elite backcourt
Warriors - elite back court
Denver - depth and altitude

- Underrated
Denver - could be 50 win season if healthy again
Brooklyn - i like their coach
Miami - winning pedigree
Toronto - talented, plays defense
Golden State - ELITE defense with new triangle offense

- Talented just needs a couple years to figure it out
Detroit - get rid of one of those leftys
New Orleans - get rid of Gordon; improve defense, find a SF
Milwaukee - get experience

- Bounce back/sleeper years
Evan Turner
Otto Porter
Rudy Gobert
Gorgui Dieng
Terrance Ross
Harrison Barnes

- All injury team
Nene
CP3
Sideshow Bob Varejao
Brooke Lopez
Deron Williams

- Old and should retire
Kevin Garnett
Andre Miller
Hedo Turkoglu
Nick Collison

- Underrated Players
Khris Middleton
Mike Scott
Lou Williams
Al Jefferson
Lance Stephenson
Josh McRoberts
Festus Ezeli
Mike Conley

- Overrated
Giannis Alphabet - jack of all trades; master of none
Deron Williams - cant play ball without ankles
Brandon Jennings - bad shot selection
JR Smith - bad shot selection
DeAndre Jordan - his rebs & def have improved though
Eric Bledsoe - can he stay healthy?

- Hot Seat
CP3 needs to get to WCF
Monty Williams
Kevin McHale
Jacque Vaughn
Scott Brooks

- Rookies
Jabari - 18ppg
Smart - a SG not a PG
Rodney Hood
TJ Warren
Andrew Wiggins
Elfrid Payton
Doug McDermott
Spencer Dinwiddie
Gary Harris

- Rookies (who will be good in 3 yrs)
Joel Embiid
James Young
Andrew Williams
Zach Levine

ALL NBA TEAM (besides the obvious)
- Demarcus Cousins
- Unibrow Davis

Final Four
- Chicago vs Cleveland
- OKC vs Spurs

Prediction = Chicago defeats spurs

Indy has so many people injured early.

They could end this season with a high pick, but I still think even with that it's going to take them a few years to rebuild

Hoping the Lakers beat the Rockets tonight, and the Mavs beat the Spurs.

I wouldn't mind a Lakers win but I can't root for the Legend of Tyson even if his team is playing the Spurs.

Mavs may waive Gal Mekel.

No. That is why I got it. Where I live at least 20 games a year are blacked out on my cable package because the Sabres play on msg. Also, you can choose the Knick broadcast when you watch the games. It is fantastic in my opinion. I watch the game on my tv with a roku but you can watch it on your computer or on your tv through most streaming devices.

Crush, you have TimeWarner? I do and most all of the games are on MSG or MSG plus, the spillover channel.

I do have TimeWarner but it is the Batavia package so I don't get MSG Plus. We used to get the spillover channel but that rarely happens now. I have friends that live less than 3 miles away that get MSG Plus. Also, I am only 7 miles outside of Rochester. I spent years calling TWC and trying to get games on and I had probably a 20% success rate. I finally stopped bothering with it and just watched bad streams when they were blacked out for us. Now with ballstreams I can watch every game. League pass wouldn't have worked for me in regards to watching the Knicks.
