Does anybody just get frustrated following the nba cats?

Davis carried off court, just a knee contusion, no structural damage, day-to-day, team sucks
Boogie didn't play
wall and wizards lose again
Bledsoe, knight, lose to Warriors (ok not that big of deal, but knight nor Bledsoe get any respect)
Towns get less minutes than second team (just sad, but they pick up a win)
Lyles, we will have to wait a couple of years

I don't get to watch these guys, just follow game updates, but shiz, but nobody is consistent. The NbA is so uneven right now, too much expansion. Can you imagine 4-6 less teams, and some of these guys teamed together?
 
The most frustrating part for me is Davis' inability to stay healthy for any period of time. His body constantly betrays him.

I also don't get Wall's season so far. He's not playing at the level he set a few years ago. I hope he's not getting content.

I also agree on your point regarding too many teams. I mean, some franchises have been horrible since I was a child, and I'm 34 years old now. Milwaukee, New Orleans, Minnesota, Atlanta, Sacramento, Toronto. I mean, really, what's the point of them even existing from a competitive level? I know some of them continue to draw fans, but I feel the league would be so much stronger if they just fire bombed a few franchises into oblivion. As it stands, it's pretty much a given that Cleveland is coming out of the east and either Golden State, San Antonio, or OK City are coming out of the west. No one else really stands a chance, and that's pretty bad for the product overall.
 
Knight and Bledsoe are getting a lot of attention for their play
As was said, Davis just needs to be healthy
Cousins puts up numbers but it doesn't seem to affect winning
Wall is a good player but will never be truly great because he can't shoot
Towns will be great

I'd like to see 4/6 less teams so we could see some of these guys play together...for us.

Less options would create less departures.
 
Kings were something like 5-3 with a healthy Rondo and Cousins playing together.

Can you imagine if Lyles and Booker had returned? Put Lyles next to Skal and you'd have one of the best scoring frontlines in Kentucky history.

you should relax.

Majority of UK player is too young still. No where near the prime.

I mean, KAT playing less than secondary isn't a big deal. The dude is a rookie.

Bledsoe is getting a lot of love in NBA. He's doing great, not sure why you think he doesn't get respect.

Just wait 5 years, when average UK players are more than 5 years in the league. Right now is like 3 or 4? I mean...they are still pup.

Steph Curry is 27... John Wall is 25. So our older players are still young in the league. Curry blew up few years ago, improved last year, and this year he's on a completely different level. Not saying wall will have similar result, because he won;t. But he can continue to evolve his game.

Granted the Kings haven't won a lot of games the past few years, but when they do it's with Cousins.

Without Cousins, the team is dead in the water and it's a minor miracle if they can pull one out.

Given that, I think it's incorrect to say that he presence 'doesn't seem to affect winning'.

Yeah it is just awful keeping up with our players in the league, not sure how some people do it. :rolleyes:

How does expansion have anything to do with it? We've had 30 teams since the new millennium and the league is as loaded as its been in a long time. Davis and Cousins not being able to stay on the floor is nobodies' fault. Wall, Knight, and Bledsoe all play for decent teams. I'm not sure what you're expecting from them. Towns is a rook, he's gonna be up and down this year, that's just the way it is.

4 of the 6 teams you named were in the playoffs last year. The Hawks had a great season.

To the original poster: No, it doesn't frustrate me for the most part, but this season is not off to the best start. Last season was a lot of fun. And it's only November.
 
I'd you want consistency I'm pretty sure Trez is consistently getting DNPs. That's easy to keep up with
 
Stay calm no need to get frusterated, they still young. I hope A.D can get healthy and stay healthy.
