NBA Season Thread 2016-2017 - Page 74 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Spurs games have been relatively "empty" this year too. We easily have the worst home crowd for a contender ever and have for a while. Just totally spoiled and its pathetic.

Texas fanbases are the WOAT at filling seats. Prices tend to be high enough to keep poor diehards out, and we don't have an intense upper middle class fanbase like GSW or whatever. Always sell out, but against bad opponents people don't show up.

Not as thunderous as Nance, but pretty sick that it's 1 on 3/4 and over Okafor

This is up there with DAJ on Knight and Blake on Mozgov....maybe even better since he set it up himself with a crossover rather than being passed the ball. Did SE ever do an "in-game dunk" draft? I feel like that had to have been a thing at some point, but I can't remember ever doing it.

I know he doesn't really push off but I hate when the off arm is used in those dunks at all

The Nance extremely slow (but effective) crossover makes it better imo, Kempesque

Maybe the biggest takeaway is that the Lakers finally held someone below 80 after 3

The Jump just started and they must have just heard, Rachel Nichols struggling to get through her monologue.

RIP Sager. No way I could've remained as positive and upbeat as he did fighting that.

came to post some snide derozan on/off nums, but gotta just say RIP to craig sager - his character was admirable and the way he approached his last few years was incredibly inspirational.

**** man. Rough news. He left a lot of good behind and had so much love to give. Something to aspire to.

Reading over twitter right now, it appears people are arguing with Haralabos about Shaq. People are saying Shaq would struggle in the league today. LOL. Is it to the point now where saying Shaq would still be great is something only an OLD believes?
