It’s time for a conversation.
For me it's Tyrese Maxey
>>145355761Celtics have standards.
>>145355790Is he the Goat Euro Center?
My picks for 10/28: we had a kind of rough week to start the season, mostly off of one really bad day. But that's how it goes this early. I'm confident we will have a profitable week here. New week, new money-making opportunities. Without further ado, let's smash those bookies.>Pacers +7.5I think we're getting a good value, buy low spot here after Pacers were defeated in OT by the 76ers in their home opener. Pacers still have all the same players that up crazy offensive numbers last year and I'm not ready to hop off that ATS gravy train yet. Magic are a good team, but most of their value last year came from them being underrated and undervalued. Now that the public has caught up, I think they are just a little too overvalued here at -7.5. Take the Pacers to get the bounce-back cover.>Wizards +7.5Hawks were the absolute worst ATS team last season and we made a ton of money fading them. They are currently the worst ATS team in the league again this year, failing to cover in all 3 of their games so far. Wizards covered the spread in 3 out of the 4 h2h matchups between these two teams last season. No way in hell I'm laying 8 points with the Hawks.>Pistons +8.5This is going to be an unpopular pick with a certain poster here, but the Heat have been horrendous at home the last few years. They were 17-27 ATS at home last season. Pistons covered the large spread in their last game against the Celtics and I think they cover this fairly sizeable spread in Miami tonight.>Jazz +11.5I think Mavs are being highly overvalued in this spot. Mavs only went 26-25 ATS at home last season. As home favorites, they were only 19-18 ATS. Now the books are asking me to lay 12 points with a team that's this streaky. Nope. Won't do it. Mavs are the better team. Mavs likely win this game, but that's just too many points.Good luck, and don't bet what you don't have.
>>145355860>my picks
>>145355860>gambling addictHow to spot a deatbeat 101
>>145355790Zubac always been good and harden makes all centers look like this.
>>145355790He's got a system.
>>145355761TateGOD Season
>>145355790>>145355934>>145355996Yep.
>>145355934I remember when my boy Zu was getting played off the floor. Nowadays hes no one to fuck with in the paint. Since hes a hard worker and well coached, hes evolved a lot offensively, both with his touch around the rim and his passing. All thats left at this point is shooting 3s but I dont want Big Zu anywhere other than the paint. Let the big man operate in the paint
>>145356022Jimmy will defeat Gaytum and get his ring, trust the blueprint
>>145355918brother hes not an addict, his job is advertising gambling online
>>145356134>trust the blueprint
>>145356157Why is Jimmy so freaking Zesty bros...
>before: zubac is a SCRUB>after: zubac MVP
What player's muh legacy will be most ruined if they don't win this year?
>>145356244Dame or Embiid. Probably Dame more because he has less time left
>>145356240I should print out a run of "White Shaq" t-shirts and sell them out of a truck in south central, bet I'd make a killing.
>>145355813good post
>>145356244He's 34.
>>145356317I don't think anyone ever thought he was that great, he just overachieved with what he had
AD averaging 15 free throws on 19 shots a game and is getting his dick sucked but when embiid averages 9 free throws on 30 shots it's a crime against humanity.
>>145356328>the league is rigged for the lakers but they still don't make the playoffs or when they do they get obliterated in comical fashion because lebum is trashya we know
>the blueprint
>>145356328ADawg is lightskin and likeable, Emsneed is a gorilla niggah with an weird accent
>>145356379first shitty forced discord meme of the season just dropped!
>ADawg is lightskin and likeable
>>145356420why did you post an arab, now Post ADamantium
>>145355884>>145355918I told you one particular poster would be butt hurt.
>>145356144Yea, man. They're paying me to advertise to the 5 jobless losers who spend all day itt arguing about Jimmy fucking Butler. Don't flatter yourself, buddy.
>>145356407weapschizo did it to himself.
>>145356379>>145356481so whats the cope when the heat/knicks/magic/cavs eliminate the Shelltics from the playoffs
>>145356521this isnt april of 2024 bro
>>145356481>will lose to the winner of the Magic/Cavs seriesno way he thought this when the magic/cavs series was the worst series to go to 7 games in NBA history.
>imagine you dunking...in those booty shortswhat was shaw thinking
>>145356623i wish i had the confidence to speak to women the way old boomers like shaq do.
>>145356640you mean multimillionaire 7ft athletes, regular boomers have no success with young women unless they are moneymaxx
>>145356471yes you're being paid to advertise on 4chan
>>145356623He was thinking “Damn, I sure do love butts”

>>145356284Dame ruined his by leaving Portland. We'll nevver accept him back again.
>>145356471Nta but why write up your pick spread reasoning every day and post it here if you weren't being paid? Pure boredom?
>>145356244Lebron. He forced his son on the squad. If he can't take a chip after that he's a joke.
>>145356471bet nigga seething a little because he's been losing
>>145356481KWAB
>>145356943Because I like talking about basketball and I'm not a child who lives vicariously through my favorite multi-millionaires. There once was a time when no adult would be caught dead giving a shit about a sporting event unless they had money on it. Zoomers and millenials are just built different, I guess.
>>145357207Based BetGOD
>>145357031I'm disappointed about that losing day on Friday, sure. That was brutal. But I'm not mad at all. These were my football picks for Sunday. I also went 3-1 on my college picks on Saturday. My apologies to anybody who trailed me that Friday, but a day like that won't happen very often.
Gambling is haram, brothers.
>>145355860Thanks betanon. I got a lot of money from the Pistons ATS bet.
the nuggets are a fucking dumpster fire and once again russ looks like dogshit
Jokic hit a career-high 7 (Seven) three point shots and Denver lost at home to the Clippers down their best player.
>>145357428>>145357567The nuggets are cooked, time for Jokebitch to force himself out and all his friends to seethe about it
>>145357567He fucked up at the end but at the same time he was the only one that kept them into the gameBraun looked really good, got some points and was great at defending HardenMPJ is Ben Simmons level right now and Murray is washedGordon is meh and the bench would look better with me and you in itWestbrook is not even trying to get rebounds anymore, they might as well use him the same way they use DeAndre
At this rate we should look out for Giannis demanding the Bucks trade for Westbrook so Giannis can have one more scapegoat for why he needs to leave Milwaukee
>>145357685Russ is -37 in 40 minutes played
surely jokic can beat my hospital raptor
>Bam was 5'6 when he was 11>I was 5'7 when I was 11>He's now 6'9>I'm 6'4I got mogged hard
Anyone hyped to laugh at this bum tonight
He will prove everyone wrong this season.
>>145357905by missing the play-ins completely?
>>145357866He will destroy the Pisston and the Shelltics
>>145357716He probably has at least 3 airballs by now The team looked so shook at the first half, like this was a new roster and the players didn't know their roles yetUntil a little run they had before halftime they had 1 assist total as a teamMPJ was open all the time and was bricking every shot....this guy is not it at allAt some point he was wide open and run inside to the basket when Jokic tried to give him a pass and they turned it overHonestly without Jokic hitting those 3s they would lose by 20 easily
>>145357905...by playing even worse than we could have imagined
WestGOD masterclass tonight
>>145357951his first shot as a nugget
>>145357950He can't even destroy the first round Orlando Magic KWAJ (Kek What A Janitor)
Jimmy Butler will say his goldfish and gay lover died as copes this season. He's running out of immediate family members to throw the ringless bum blame on
>>145358002qrd on this.
>>145357905>you have to use AI to see jimmy butler holding an nba championshp trophy
>>145357951I agree with you on MPJ, he looks like what sixers fans have described as tobias harris.
>>145355761test
>>145358029they even let KCP walked cause they signed him and Murray to the max kek. Looks like this is hte year Joker gets butt raped
>>145358043fess up anon, what did you post
dumb fans and media haters who wanted to steal harden's mvp created the westbrick monster
>>145357905
>>145358016>play like shit>father dies>play like even smellier shit (Jimmy, the mop please)>embarrass yourself in the playin>blame the death of your father as to why you were shit all season>your GM publicly tells you to shut the fuck up
>>145357343Those guys with the dark spots on their forehead are devout muslims. The dark spot “zebiba” is formed when they press their heads against the ground during prayer. The darker the zebiba, the more pious the individual.
>>145358078harden and kawhi were so much better than russ that year but muh averaging a triple double shit made me sick bro
>>145358073a bunch of people got banned yesterday for arguing about politics, ireshart, some german and at least two americans.
>>145358117Don't think anyone asked or cared. They probably just got done building bombs and didn't clean their subhuman faces correctly
>>145357969It's like getting a triple double with every team, but with airballs
>>145357343i just know it smells here.
>>145358104damn, thats embarrassing bro don't bring your family into your choke job
>>145356059Prime harden would dogwalk this league
>>145357343Why are they wrapped in bedsheets
>>145358130>a bunch of people got banned yesterday for arguing about politicsmods are laying down the hammer on this because /pol/tards have tendency to spill of there containment board during election time
>>1453579610-10 FGM?
>>145358171>there containment boardLet me guess, Kamala voter?
When will weapskitz drop the act and just admit 35 year old Jimmy Buttshits is just not him? He has never been a superstar and now that he's out of his prime he will never sniff another finals unless he gets traded to a real contender like the Clippers.
>>145358196>Let me guess, CHADmala connoisseur? Yep, how could you tell
>>145357961>10 points >3/19 shooting (0-9 from 3)>7 assists>5 rebounds>1 steal >7 turnovers
>>145357343Imagine a 50 kiloton nuclear device slamming right into the center of this shit
>>145358228You have the grammar skills of someone with a low IQ
>>145358117Wait they killed their skin from prostrating too much?
>>145358205Nobody respects your * Leaf shut the fuck up
>>145358235Well I am an Indian migrant so of course of I will be voting for the half-hindu hero Kamala. So how about you fuck off before I rape you bloody bitch
>>145358029I was watching the game live because it was early and at some point he looked legit like Ben SimmonsNot because he couldn't hit a 3 but because he was afraid to shoot oneMental midget, at least Murray has balls to shoot even though he is kinda washed
>>145358235im not>>145358228 im>>1453581711. im not voting for kamala (im not poltical)2. yes i used incorrect grammer, no this isnt english class so therefore i dont care
>>145358279Gilbert Arenas...
>>145358279I don't know who this is but I am >>145358171and this >>145358228So if your a trump loving retard get out of my basketball thread. Basketball is an international sport where minorities of all stripes can celebrate themselves
>Kevin Durant injured>Klay Thompson Injured>Demarcus Cousins injured>Steph Injured * ring. Kawhi was so ashamed he left for LA
Do you guys prefer two star bigs matching up or two guards
>>145358341If the guards can't guard 2 guards. If they can guard 2 bigs
you now remember jimmy kimmel vs ted cruz at basketball
>>145358335Yup, also Dwayne and Bosh were injured and husks of themselves, 2014 and 2019 are huge asterisks
Craptors needed everyone injured to win a ring. It's the same as Bombston
>>145358350You dont like defense?
>>145358366Chris Bosh had a heart condition while Kawhi injected so much steroids in his knee it degraded a couple years later. Nobody respects the 2014 Spurs either.
>2014 Spurs either.skitz has fallen so low
>>145358391I was confused I thought you were asking which I preferred to go against. If the star guards are no defense memechuckers I would love my team to face them. If they are a grit and grind backcourt like prime Splash Bros then I prefer to face 2 bigs.If I were to choose for my own team I want 2 elite guards because bigs can get exposed.
>>145358426>refball>injuriesThe same shit as 2024
>>1453584262014, 2016, 2019, 2020, 2024 are all asterisks rings bud, you can cope about LeBum or Gaytum somewhere else
>>145358426the only ring that counts to weapschizo is 2012 and 2013.
>>145358474This>>145358476Because those were earned from hard work and talent
>>145358366I'm fairly certain that 2014 Heat team was mostly healthy that Finals
>>145358428Good post
>>145358476and 2006
>>145358474It would be more prudent to state which rings aren't astericks, if you think about it
>>145358508for real, honestly in the 2010s/2020 only 2015, 2022 and 2023 feel legitimate
>>145358489Chris Bosh had a heart condition and Dwayne Wade had knee problems
god dam these teams are shit
>>145358078>>145358126The Thunder finished 6th in the West that year too. They completely devalued the MVP over the last 10 years. Look at this list. Jokic should arguably only have one, maybe two. Giannis probably deserves the one from 2021. The rest of these are absolutely undeserved.
2013 Heat beat the Spurs when Healthy2014 Heat had injuries and lostMmmmmm mmmmm thunk about it
>>145358494>2006it was so bad the actual FBI got involved so Stern exposed Tim Donaghy to make them stop investigating further
no way skitz is trying to discredit the spurs because they beat his team. fucking moron

ummmm what the FUCK is this??
just how i like to see it
weapskits has to resort to AI images of Jimmy with a trophy just to cope with his sad existence KWAB
>NBA>Has rap collab songs over goats>Kobe goes out in helicopter to end era died a hero instead of becoming villain meme>Better memes>NFL>Taylor Swift Kelce bs WWE drama script>Brady is just advertising material didn't go out like Kobe so has to be awkward commentator instead for NFL corporate MafiaIs NBA truly the kino pro sport?>Memes are lame on NFL threads just shitposts and gambling
>>145358734OH NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>145358697gonna have to ask the experts at /x/ which demonic entity that is
Quick can someone PLEASE run this through an AI filter and confirm this pic is real and not like that of Jimmy Butler holding a trophy? I just need confirmation...
>skitz attacking leafs and spurs fansThis won’t end well for him, it was fine when he kept his autism vs Celtics fans only but he’s gonna get ran out of this thread (again) real fast.
>>145358697
>LeMickey missed the playoffs then got swept and gentleman's swept the next two years
>>145358875Kek
In Jimmy we trust
>>145358912Kinda looks like SGA here

>>145358959I respect it.
>>145358697I think statues look so fucking ugly no matter who they are made afterOne of the dumbest things mankind has come up withJust make like a plaque or a memorial icon or something, not some giant heavy ass waste of space
>>145358273that's rough, I only caught a portion of the game but I believe you
>>145359000You're a nobody Inceltic
>>145358959I respect it too
>>145358986friendly reminder that MJ started eating steak before every game in the 90s and became an unstoppable juggernaut. today's fragile chicken-eating weakmind numales could never compete.
>>145359006>I think statues look so fucking ugly no matter who they are made after
>>145359006talent matters
>>145358697This statue does not look like a parrotfish, ergo it does not look like noted child abuser Dwyane Wade.
>>145358959>>145359097Nobody respects your AI images little weapskitz KWAB
>>145358697>>145359006The problem is modern sculptors trying to sculpt out of bronze instead of marble or stone. The Greeks figured this shit out thousands of years ago. We are literally regressing as a species.
>>145359006the iverson statue may be small but at least it looks ilke a piece of art
>>145359070>jamie pull up nigger art from the same time period
>>145359180Also, another problem with bronze is that it turns green over time.
