Is Klank Thompson the missing piece for the Mavericks to win a title? FUCK NO LMAO
>>142298226Now that the dust has settled...The Splash Bros are a top __ guard duo of all time.
>win finals>sell the teamwhat happened https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/40474833/boston-celtics-ownership-group-plans-sell-majority-stake
no one wants to play with LeMickey
Klay is washed but that's not a bad number for him
No wonder teams will be tanking for Cooper. He's got a 7 foot wingspan and a 40 inch vertical. We should be calling him white lebron
>>1422982982
>>142298320Selling the team at its highest value. NBA franchises are business ventures most owners dgaf.
Oh nooo, anywaysTateGOD city
>>142298298They're right behind Luka and Kyrie imo.
>>142298362LeParent and LeNepoBaby
>>142283262I unironically dont rate Hartenstein. Think he got the playing in NY rep boost. Still good to get another center to play when chet isnt. Helps with their size.>>142291206>Drafted a guy with all the tools you could ask for minus shooting>Everybody available around 5 had shooting concerns>NOOOOOOO YOU SHOULD HAVE DRAFTED THE BIG MAN WHO CANT DO ANYTHING BESIDES BEING TALL!>>142294917I don't know how I feel about this. On one hand I get that a problem was you had no one to reliable score besides Kyrie and Luka on the other hand Luka Kyrie and Klay are all bad defenders. What about when Klay is having an off night which will happen. I get the move but I'm very skeptical of how it will turn out. I'd still take the Celtics in 6.>>142295116>Even Cryami players have the Celtics living rent free
>Kills your dynasty Potential costed them 2 more rings because he called KD a bitch lmaoo.
>>142298320buy low sell high, they probably don't think more titles are coming anytime soon, so may as well cash out now.
>>142298462Now that Chet Holmgren is a bust I'm looking forward to Cooper vs Wemby
didn't glay chumpson want like 4/160how'd he settle on 3/50
>>142298226This is a very good signing for the Mavs and for Klay. Fools who don't actually watch basketball are going to be shocked.
>KWAB listLakersClippersNuggetsWarriorsHeatBulls
Imagine if the Spurs get two top 5 picks next year
Am I crazy or are most of the stars retiring in the next few years and there aren’t many to replace them? What’s the NBA look like in 5 years?
>>142298699Grant Williams had similar takes from fans and it wasn't too long before they changed their minds kekIt all depends on Klay's ego and if he's fine just being another catch and shoot piece when most of the time the ball is in Kyrie or Luka's hands
>>142298462are those his parents or grandparents?
>>142298782you just aren't paying attention to the new stars because the media still thinks the old dudes are good
>>142298585It's sad how much the media was pushing the "rivalry", but now that Chet's on the bench, they'll need to find a new Bird to Wemby's Magic.
Which players have superstar status despite probably aging out of that qualification?
>>142298782all the "stars" went out first round and are trashthere's just an old & washed get maxed out meta cuz lebum tricked owners into thinking everybody else can also play into their 40s
>>142298810>Klay's ego and if he's fine just being another catch and shoot piece when most of the time the ball is in Kyrie or Luka's handswhen has he been anything else? his handles have been trash and never good enough to be a primary ballhandler
>>142298782The fuck you talking about? Vast majority of the best players in the league right now are under 30.
>>142298782>>142298841zoomers have no star power unless they are women
>>142298810Klay isn't ball dominant anyways, I hope Jason Kidd incorporates more off ball actions to get him open.
>>142298782you just arent paying attention
People throw the term "SOVL" and "soulless" around so loosely. It should be known that the only soulless teams are the teams who have made zero history within the NBA or have teams that will be forgotten years down the line. The objective list is:SOVL teams:>Spurs>Lakers >Celtics>Heat>Bulls>76ers >Knicks>Thunder>Mavericks >Rockets>Pistons>Cavaliers>BucksSoulless teams:>Pelicans>Hornets>Blazers>Clippers>Nets>Wizards>Grizzlies>WolvesDebatable:>Hawks>Magic>Kings>Suns>Raptors>Jazz>Nuggets>Pacers
>>142298298There really aren't many great backcourts. Their competition is like Parker-Ginobili, Thomas-Dumars, Rondo-Allen, and Paul-Harden.
>>142298782Wemby dominating and in discussion with WB to make "Space Jam International"
>LeMickey missed the playoffs then got swept and gentleman's swept the next two years
>>142298910we aren't going to pretend that the last few months of dick sucking and hype didn't happen
Give me one good reason your team isn't running split action
I need to emphasize this I HATE this nigga like you wouldn't believe
>>142299049Shitty ass team ain't doing shit but jobbing in the 2nd round.
From Lakers reporter:>The Lakers thought they had Klay lined up. I've heard the offer was as high as 4y $80M and Klay STILL said he'd rather go to Dallas.
Your 2024 NBA champions.
>>142298815Yes those are his grandparents. His parents are pic related
>>142298699Klay is terribly overrated. I'm sorry. His whole career was just "wait in the corner for Steph to get triple teamed so I can shoot my wide open meme 3". Once defenders stopped biting on the triple team, Klay became Klank. Idk what he's supposed to contribute to the Mavs. Seems to me the Mavs problem in the Finals was ball movement and perimeter defense.
>>142298782West ConferenceAnthony EdwardsSGAWembyJa ZionSengunLuka/KyrieJazz/Blazers hopefully have Lauri and Clingan develop into All StarsClippers/Warriors/Lakers LOL Eastern ConferenceHaliburtonBrunsonGiannisPaolo BancheroUhh don't really know if anyone else is worth mentioning from there maybe the Hawks if they don't fuck it up this time (they will)
>>142299130damn still a warrior for life
>>142299130lol does no one want to go to the Lakers anymore even with LeBron and AD? I guess the Lakers front office is that dogshit.
Klay is delusional and still thinks he can elevate a team to championship contention, or he was afraid of the LA media and inevitable LeBron circus
OH NO NO NO NO
>>142299049Welcome to the bench after you're done serving your suspension for that tweet, you fucking stick.

>>142299268>wanting to be scapegoated by Lenepotism
>>142299130can you blame him. After 13 seasons in 'Cisco, I'd pick Dallas over LA
>>142298890There’s tons of good players under 30 yes. How many stars? People that fans want to watch, follow etc? Who are the steph, james etc of the under 30s? There’s like a dozen of them retiring and I just don’t see their replacements. Wemby could be interesting if his body doesn’t fail him(which for guys his height doesn’t seem likely) who else? Maybe luka but I’m not sure
>>142298505everything he did was real kd a bitch klay bitch made only curry is a real nigga
Mavs should've just kept Josh Green. Klay ain't it anymore.
now please someone save Markkanen from Utah
I could see why Klay chose the Mavs over the Lakers if he fails with the Mavs it won’t be a ton of drama. If he fails with the Lakers he’s gonna have to deal with Laker fags and LeBum Fags. Also unproven coach and the whole Bronny thing.
>[Stein] Klay Thompson had face-to-face meetings with both the Lakers and Mavericks in L.A. on Sunday night, league sources say. In addition Dallas had Klay's former @USABasketball teammate Kyrie Irving to counter recruiting from LeBron James.
>>142298226i'm gonna miss him Wsbros............

>>142299311>Herro requesting a trade soonWe back, Heatnation.
Mavs and Warriors game would be hype until you realize they're gonna bench Klay 5 minutes into the game for Naji Marshall
>>142299210>Eastern Conference>Haliburton>Brunson>Giannis>Paolo BancheroI mean, I don't like the Celtics either. But let's not pretend JB and Tatum aren't stars. Both under 30. Embiid is injury prone, but he's still a big draw too.
>>142300134You're getting Keldon Johnson and 1 second round pick for him after the season he just had
>>142299394>Overpaidbut enough about Anunoby
>>142300138Klay trying to get Draymond ejected from the bench will be more hype than him trying to play basketball
Mavs replaced DJJ, Green, and THJ with Marshall, Grimes, and Klay. Two of those are essentially lateral moves, but Klay is a huge upgrade over Tim Hardaway. They are definitely a better team now.
>>142300236I'll take it.
>>142299532>Who are the steph, james etc of the under 30s?ESPN hasn't decided who to tell you yet. Sorry. Maybe watch the game instead of relying on Klutch media to tell you who ziggiest of all time is or whatever.
>>142300298Klay is washed.
>>142300168They are but I'm not sure if they'll be on the same team in 5 years with how expensive both their contracts will be for the CelticsEmbiid is cool but yeah I don't know how long his body will last him, honestly would be crazy if he and Jokic teamed up before Nikola retires
Expansion when?
>>142300010LA fans are mutt retard star fuckers. They're gonna say that Bronny needs more playing time and blame Reaves for not passing him the ball enough. They would be happy if Kim Kardashian was on the team. Absolutely retarded city. Just full of celebrity obsessed mongoloids.
>>142300509it's next on the agenda
>>142300413Not more washed than THJ
>>142300298>but Klay is a huge upgrade over Tim Hardawayjust checked the calendar, it is in fact not 2015 anymore
>>142299197That's Ron perlman
>>142298782The all-timer talents without rings are Luka (if in shape) and Wemby (if he doesn't get crippled)Ant I'm still not sold on yet
>>142300509After the new media deal. soon. Its gonna be Vegas and Seattle
WE GOT A WASHED KLAY BROSWE DID IT MAVS SISSIES
The Celtics AND Embiid are gonna win a title in back to back years truly the darkest timeline
>The main note worthy thing he did in his NBA career is fuck over majority of nba teams with the new CBA.
apologize
>>142299277I can understand not wanting to live in LA nor dealing with Lebron. Better chances to make a good playoff run too
>Emsneed has literally never even made it out of the 2nd round>now I'm supposed to believe not only will he make the finals, he'll win itlollmao eveb
>>142300859CJ
>>142298782Curry, Lebron and KD are the only megastars. NBA has plenty of second tier stars though
>>142300297Will it be a punch, a tackle, a kick to the nuts or one of Draymond's more inventive technicals like a choke or chest stomp?
>>142300859>Blazers would have had a ring if prime Dame had literally any better 2nd option than CJ It hurts Blazer bros but Clingan is our hope now
>>142301034someone's getting The People's Elbow before adam grows a spine and draws the line
why would the warriors refuse to trade cp3 and wiggins for Lavine. That was like the perfect bailout for them
>>142300897No
>>142300859He also dropped off Jokic in a game 7
D. White extensionWe did it! It really is White boy summer.Incoming Dynasty.
>>142301249they didnt want to give up wiggins
>>142301006>Curry, Lebron and KDYea, because they've all been playing for 20 years. Nobody knew KD in 2010 or Curry in 2013. Hell, nobody knew Jokic until last year. You guys are really confused as to why a Brunson or a Haliburton isn't as famous as these guys yet? Maybe if they'd fucking retire already and stop being greedy ring chasing legacy builders.
>>142301293those are words but can they be used in a sentence like that?
>>142301180My first experience of disappointment was seeing Greg come in, and it felt like the blazers were going to the fucking moon. He was so good when he was healthy- for like 5 minutes one time kek. The blazers do not have a good record of not fucking shit up, and of drafting well.
>>142301429Based. Gotta love the godfather! Ignore losing key roleplayers we got Herro!
>>142301477to be fair the blazers have been a fairly competent franchise for most of their history. They've just had absurdly bad luck often
>>142301429yep, stay the course you old senile bastard
>>142301429>lose all your roleplayers for nothing>add no one>we can contendAAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>142301660legit feel bad for Oden, he could have been great if he wasn't cursed with easily broken knees
>>142298585How does a 7'3" guy not know how to rebound? That should be day one shit. Hartenstein is going to have him riding pine for the rest of his rookie contract.
>>142301429I don't believe he believes this. What I do believe is that he knows his garbage bin of players are useless in terms of trade value so there's no way he can actually improve anything without completely gutting the roster, which then means Jimmy is requesting out. Their window closed. And he knows it.
>>142301429Who's more mentally gone Pat Riley or Biden?
>retards seething over Klaycan't wait for more tears
The Warm should just do a fire sale
>>142298494thats a pathetic looking handbag
>>142302168>Pat Riley trades everyone except Tyler Herro
Jokic is officially an idiot for wanting that washed-up fraud to play with him
The nuggets are having an underrated terrible off season. Lost KCP, and trying to bring in Westbrick.
>believing "reports"
>>142301477Yeah but the Blazers were 23rd out of 30 in rim protection last year so an anchor like Clingan who prioritizes blocking shots and getting rebounds is going to help them out a lot and he is sneakily good at 3 pointers tooIt might be okay to have a bit of hope and excitement for this year
>>142301972Chet is a shooter on offense and a shot blocker on D. Both those roles take you away from rebounds.
>>142302064better someone mentally gone than someone mentally a sociopath :^)
nuggies, please, anyone but him....
>>142302154True I cant wait for more Luka tears as he bitches to the refs :)
>>142302994get the fuck away from my nuggets pinoy
>>142301366Giannis and Jokic will never be as big as Curry or Lebron because they're foreigners
>>142302938damn pat riley is a sociopath? i had a feeling
I’m a warriors fan, and I think people are being too down on klay. He’s a shell of his former self, but it’s not like he’s totally useless. He just needs to come to terms with the fact that he’s a role player at this point in his career.
>>142302600several things need to happen with the blazers>scoot henderson needs to show up next season and prove he's got star potential>shaedon sharpe needs to look like michael fucking jordan especially since he has some ludicrous 50" vertical or something>ant simons needs to go to orlando, maybe jerami leaves for the right price>clingan needs to look good and start as a backup center for ayton in hopes he can surpass him>pray that avdija and camara aren't total dogshit wingsSo basically they need to hope their backcourt has a big year, pray that clingan won't fall apart to a stiff breeze, and get rid of their older role players so they can invest in some star forwards. It's a lot to ask for, but that's what rebuilding is all about; gambling until you succeed.
>>142303166>forces all his players to have a certain body fat %Obviously.
>>142298503>NOOOOOOO YOU SHOULD HAVE DRAFTED THE BIG MAN WHO CANT DO ANYTHING BESIDES BEING TALL!Yikes take. He's extremely skilled for his size.
See you in the play-in Demar DeGODzan.
>>142298977Magic are extremely soulful. What's there to debate? Nearly their entire team is players they drafted or took fliers in FA on like Fulz. They even added the most soulful FA in KCP. You're trolling.
>>14230328040% 3 point shooting last year is overshadowed by that 0/10
>No DJJ>Klay ThompsonLuka has to be asking out now, right?
They called him a mad man
>>142303632The saddest thing Klay has lost is his ability to defend. He used to be an elite perimeter defender.
I respect the nugs for trying to be home grown
>>142303101serb, i am literally rooting for your team to not make a catastrophic move. first, they lose KCP,then not even make an attempt for Valanciunas or Hartensteinand now, Jokic is supposedly pushing for THAT player?if they want to stay competitive while Jokic is still in his prime, they need to have good role players both ok the starting 5 and off the bench. they lost perfection with their starters when KCP walked, and their bench is in dire need of a complete overhaul. i want more kino Jokic moments in the next few finals, i really do. but, their front office making dumb decision after dumb decision is just...
>>142303780They become soulless if they get Westbrick
>>142303536Yeah I like the Magic. Dwight era was kino. Shaq/Penny era was kino.
>>142303707joker got his ring and his mvp, I don't think he cares if he remains irrelevent at the nugs for the rest of his career as long as they pay him
>>142303872he'll be a 20mpg backup point guard, which is something they're in desperate need of. i don't understand the bitching
>>142303115Jokic is dull like Tim DuncanGiannis has been too injured for deep playoff runs to get into the public consciousnessLeBron and Curry also are exceptional talents
>>142303307They're actually thinking of running Ayton at Power Forward and Clingan as the Center to play big against teams like Memphis with Edey and JJJ, Cleveland with Mobley, Denver with Aaron Gordon.But yeah Scoot and Shaedon are the future, sad because I really like Simons but he doesn't seem to be panning out as well as they hoped.https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5604116/2024/06/29/donovan-clingan-blazers-deandre-ayton/

Lakers are straight fucked. They basically had to bank on a Hail Mary move, and now they don’t even have any of those left.

>>142303850then you are not the same philipino that i argue with in every thread. carry on brudda
>>142304005oh shit so they're going twin towers with clingan and ayton, that will be neat to watch. Hope their pacing isn't dogshit because of that. They should hold on to grant just in case so there's a spacing option at the wing spot before they find a better alternative.Simons would be great in Orlando, they need a volume scorer to simply put up numbers. They have the cap room for it too, just send Black or Cole Anthony plus 2 picks or whatever. Shame he didn't work out in portland, he's a good dude.
>>142305506he's not good anymore but he'd still be the 5th best player on the Nugs

i hope klay works out in Dallas and becomes that missing piece for Luka. As a WSU alumni and being the most prestigious player to ever come from the school it makes me sad seeing his decline, if he can fill a role that he's called to and maybe sniffs another ring hopefully he ends up redeemed in the public eye.

>>142310620went from premium chicken tenders to burger king fire sale to get rid of the low quality garbage
slot any body into drayboons position and they have at least one more ring, probably more considering KD never would've left
>>142311020An arena is like Staples or MSG. A stadium is where Football is played
>>142311100Even Gobert?
>>142311069Yeah, Chet on the bench, only 12 mpg.
>>142311020>The qualifying difference between an arena and a stadium is whether it’s a permanently enclosed structure. Stadiums are open-air construction that feature tiered seating around a sports field or stage. They have no permanent roof or walls.
>>142311069About damn time. Dude was a liability in the playoffs.
>>142311135gobert wouldnt be ejected for kicking lebussy in the nuts ike a bitch
>>142310964Cougs....His legs hopefully hold out one more time for one last playoff run
>>142309604Actually, they're selling the team so they don't have to pay the massive taxes when Wyc's Dad dies.
Is klay even good at anything apart from shooting open jumpers?
>>142310749Do you work for Brazzers or something? Why are you defending this woat meme so hard?

>>142311492because he's still a good player
>>142311577why is it okay for drayboon to do it

Why are the Celshits selling their team?
>>142313717By far probably unless you're very wealthy and live in a New York highrise condo
The reason why you aren't hearing anything out of Cleveland re: Mitchell and/or Garland is because they're in the middle of trading one of them to the Rockets, who/what compensation/etc. is all up in the air right now but expect news to come out by Wednesday afternoon, deal will be wrapped up by the 4th. It's why Houston did that weird picks trade thing with Brooklyn last week, Cavs preferred those picks
>>142313737only one guy in the group is.he's 63 and getting 15x+ return on investment. probably wants to retire
>>142313683Back in 2021 I predicted that the Hawks and the Bucks would make the ECF way back in the off season. You can find the post in the archives. It has a bunch of misspelled words. Could have made a bunch off of that
>>142313781Don't the Rockshits have Jalen Green and Manleet? Why do they need more guards?
>>142313778We talking NBA salaries
>>142313837Because Green will be out of there at the trade deadline. They view Sengun, Jabari, and Amen as their "foundation," Green is the odd man out and they think that the 3 above plus Mitchell would be a legit contender year after next. Reed Shepphard will be included in the deal

Dont understand the outrage of Nuggets letting KCP walk except if they're just gonna promote Braun to start and not signing a replacement. I watched the playoff against Twolves and he was horrible.Also I think Westbrook's signing will be kino, has a lot to prove now that he thinks he's joining a team with one of the better chance to get his ring.

>>142314947they paid him 2 years for rehab. He has nothing to bitch about
>>142315016If playing like shit and then acting like a bitch is a reason not to re-sign someone why did they give Draymond money

I'll be honest, Inceltic media has done a good job of having everyone look to the Lakers and Klutch as being the one everyone colludes with. No doubt Klutch has dirty moles but the Lakers do have a tough time going for trades while the Inceltics have everyone give them everything for free and nothing in return while having actual moles within most organizations. They probably collude to not have people trade with Klutch which would make sense. Would explain why there's no Klutch assets in Boston too.
