His dad who walked him to the podium at the draft by the way.

Not these guys but you shouldn’t be defending abusive fathers. My dad used to scream and hit people until he got his way, cut him off and I’m raising my sons differently. I broke the cycle and I’m proud of it cause my granddad used to beat him apparently. My children’s punishment is electronics taken away or no dessert.

It’s a mostly black thing and I’m aiming to stop it. I was my dads only son so he used to to be beyond hard and it was to much, probably tried to live through me, I was almost a Jr. but my mom said no. Thankfully my mom divorced him when I was like 13.

This is low key a good strat, no matter what you you think of Tate or whatever controversial figure you sub him out for. This convo isn't first date material, but putting that name out and seeing how she reacts is a good way to filter women and MPJ can afford to do that since he gets so many. If she freaks out or is just automatically argumentative over hearing that name (whether she's a chud or a leftoid)? Drop her. If she has never heard of that name or she doesn't make a stink because she doesn't care enough or doesn't want to argue over something trivial, or is just open minded enough to hear it out without screeching? Might be a keeper.

I literally grew up with black people trying so hard to be white it was ridiculous. I watched niggas like you try and hide your blackness in favor of whites. You marrying one and having your children with one while erasing the blackness from your bloodline is exact proof of what I’m talking about

He reminds normal people that they sold out the ability to have actual conversations for nothing. MPJ has an early 2000s internet vibe about him of just not taking things too seriously and being unafraid of saying random stuff. Say something that might irk some people? Oh well it's not a big deal just move on. People who live that "everything is serious business, no mircroagressions allowed, uhh isn't that problematic" life seethe at this genuine, unpolished conversation machine that is MPJ.

Bogdan Bogdanovic (Hawks)

Vasilije Micić (Hornets)
Filip Petrušev (former NBA player)
Aleksej Pokusevski (Hornets)

Nay, it's precisely because I watch basketball and know basketball that I know how little being an NBA player matters. You put more weight on the name since you're an inbred serb mutt, but are incapable of considering other factors like age, chemistry, coaching, and roster construction because you didn't start watching basketball until your BAWB savior started getting shilled.

It doesn't really matter though. Enjoy beating a team of 23 year olds in FIBA years ago while your poster boy continues to get embarrassed at the higher level. Your irrelevant shithole country will got right back to being irrelevant the moment Chokic fucks off to suck off his horses, as it should be.

See? There you go disregarding what's actually important to a team winning in favor of the "NBA player" title, as if that mattered when teams like Spain were dominating or when Argentina won gold. You don't actually understand or care about basketball, so you can't comprehend how a team with 4 guards, 2 forwards, and a single benchwarmer center struggled to win after being together for barely 2 weeks. All you can do is cling to past accomplishments since your current golden boy isn't actually winning anything, and you don't have an NBA team like Canada does. Your entire country is a joke and I seriously think you might be sub-70 IQ by how little you actually understand about basketball.

Here's hoping Chokic gets a career ending injury so all you bandwagoning slav subhumans can fuck off for good and go back to watching your dogshit D-league.

Because despite Basketball being created by a Canadian, basketball had no culture in Canada until the Raptors and Vince Carter came to Toronto. This was a hockey country first, followed by a Baseball country with the Blue Jays, and a soccer country for whoever was left. Only now are we seeing the generation that grew up watching Vince,Nash, Demar, and Lowry enter the league. Your subhuman people have nothing outside of your height, so playing basketball is the only sport you could really succeed at until Djokovic came around. Being part of yugoslavia and getting carried by Toni Kukoc is part of your legacy
> How come canadians get out coached by serbian coaches?
The canada team didn't have a canadian coach, we had Jordi Fernandez who was only an assistant coach in Sacramento at that point. The best canadian coach was coaching for Germany, you know, the team that beat you and won gold? He'll be back coaching for Canada in 2028 so don't worry.

Averaged 26-6-6 and carried your bum ass fraud, yes he did. Meanwhile Chokic has yet to win shit without Jamal playing at his best, being the underperformer that he is. Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon truly are the most important Nuggets players; take them away and you have Chokic getting swept by the Wizards.

Could’ve tried trading him plus picks for Giannis. Now you’d have a well-balanced, athletic, healthy Kobe/Shaq reincarnation no retarded Kobe ball hogging faggotry and not fatass 7 footer named Shaq, instead you have 2 studs capable of giving the Thunder 3–4 rings thanks to better role players and no retard Doc Rivers coaching, just 200 IQ Daddy Daigneault.

And don’t be retarded with the ‘Bucks would hang up the phone’ angle, the Bucks would hear them out and probably beg for those picks. It’s do-or-die, and Giannis is the only player with real value.

Chet, at best, is a dogshit version of Gasol. Sure, he can shoot threes, but he did nothing to stop Jokic Caruso did all that work, and he was shit and bullied by Turner
>>
>>150349955
They could've signed NAW or Gary Trent or traded for Quinten Grimes, someone who can be a clutch 3 point shooter in the playoffs, they struggled in closing games,

Memphis arguably had them figured out before they hurt Morant, they were down by 30 lol

Cleveland on the other hand, their guys were long injured and they still assraped Miami, OKC just has frozen weak offense at times, they need someone who can get a bucket when needed,

thats just my take, I rewatched games, and its a great team, but look, they got cooked by Mavericks without Luka, Jalen Green of all people was able to drop 30 pts on them, back in april, and the Lakers cooked them in a blowout, and the next game they had to eject Luka, and Lakers were up at the time of Luka's ejection, that literally cost Lakers that game lol
>>
>>150350027
You know nothing about 7 footers gaining weight and it shows. He just came back from a broken hip mid season and had no time to recondition.
Giannmickey hasn't made it out of the first round in like 3 years, is just as injury prone, and also needs another stretch big to play with to give him space.
> instead you have 2 studs capable of giving the Thunder 3–4 rings thanks to better role players and no retard Doc Rivers coaching, just 200 IQ Daddy Daigneault.
Yeah, and Lebron and Wade would win not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4 championships together on the Heat, right?

Turner played like shit and Hartenstein was the one guarding Jokic. Caruso was on Jokic for a single game.
>>
>>150350051
Stop coping newfag. Chet’s been ‘reconditioning’ for 2 years straight and still looks skinnier than college KD, which is insane. At this point it’s obvious he’s not bulking up, he’s headed straight for Tacko Fall territory: tall, gimmicky, but not a real franchise cornerstone. He’s played 1 season and a quarter’s worth of games and already gets ragdolled like a broomstick with sneakers. Gasol was a wall, Chet’s a turnstile.

Giannis >>> Chet. Even ‘Giannmickey’ clears because at least he’s proven he can carry a team to a ring. Injury-prone or not, he’s still a physical monster that forces doubles, something OKC desperately lacks. Don’t act like Chet and J-Dub are guaranteed dyno pieces; that’s Heatles-tier delusion.

And lol at pretending Caruso was only on Joker for ‘a single game.’ Everyone saw Chet get bullied, it wasn’t some fever dream. Hartenstein did better than him, which already tells you everything. Don’t sugarcoat it, Chet got exposed.

I can't even fathom how stupid the dynasty argument looks now, uneducated OKC retards really think you can kick out EVERYONE, Dort, Caruso, Ihart, Wallace and then surround the Big 3 with rookies?? and rinse and repeat, what the fuck? isn't that slavery?

If im any of those guys, im going full Malik Beasley, im sabotaging the team and bricking my shots, its insulting to be viewed as that expendable and I already got a ring

He won't bulk up for shit, and again look at Giannis, KD, Pau, and other bigs on the cusp of their extensions, now's the game for Holmbrick to bulk now, an offseason isn't enough, but a trade is enough, although too late now because of 50 million in the books

I'm going to bed anyways, its late, I got work tomorrow and talk to this chick I work with and I've known for a bit, theres another chick im interested in too and she's given me attention
>>
>>150350071
Chet is 2 inches taller than Gasol and 3 than KD, of course he's gonna look lankier and skinnier dipshit. Chet was the reason OKC went from barely a .500 win team to a perennial 1 seed candidate
>Even ‘Giannmickey’ clears because at least he’s proven he can carry a team to a ring.
And why would they need him to do that when they already have a core and an MVP that has done that? They should just give up picks,depth, and even more of their cap for a marginal upgrade that doesn't even want to set screens for the guards on his team? You're retarded
>And lol at pretending Caruso was only on Joker for ‘a single game.’
It was a tiny part of game 6 and game 7, he was never the primary assignment, and you'd know this if you actually watched the series.
>Everyone saw Chet get bullied, it wasn’t some fever dream.
So do you think Wemby was exposed too when Jokic dropped 40 on him? How about every other center that has to guard him? Great players are going to score on anyone in single coverage. Chet himself did a better job than 4x DPOY Rudy Gobert.

I'm 22, and graduated from college last year, applied to 50 jobs, got a few interviews that went nowhere,

Landed a job at a restaurant, and I get calls from other people trying to apply to work here, I try to recommend them but my manager literally ghosts them

>>150350118

>He’s taller so he’s supposed to be skinnier

Yeah, retard, except KD came into the league skinny and STILL wasn’t as frail as Chet is now. Chet’s literally skinnier than college KD and already moving into Tacko Fall territory, tall, lanky, useless.

>He’s the reason OKC went from .500 to a 1 seed

Lmao no, dumbass. That was Shai playing like an MVP, J-Dub leveling up, and Daigneault’s 200 IQ coaching. Chet’s just a weakside shotblocker who disappears the second someone bumps him.

>Marginal upgrade

Calling Giannis a marginal upgrade over Chet is some next-level brain rot. You’re seriously retarded if you think a 1x MVP, DPOY, Finals MVP, and NBA champ is a “sidegrade” for a guy with 1 season and a quarter-dime of games under his belt.

>But he wasn’t guarding Jokic the whole time!!

Yeah because he couldn’t, dumbass. He got ragdolled every time, so Caruso had to step in and do his job. Imagine hyping your 7-footer while your 6’4 guard is doing the dirty work for him. Pathetic.

>Wemby got cooked too!

Except Wemby is stronger, more versatile, and actually makes Jokic work. Chet folds like wet cardboard the second anyone leans on him. Wemby’s future DPOY, Chet’s future UNICEF ambassador.

and again, thunder won 50 games without chet so he's fucking useless

Beasley talking about Kendrick reminded me why US trap is so bad. The US only has one type of party music, while Brazil has over 20 different genres of party music, which makes trap more interesting.

Thunder play great and then will play like the worst team sometimes,

But my god, they played the worst on the road, meanwhile teams like the wolves play great, in game one against denver, they just decided to just not shoot any threes to close out the game, if they had the three point accuracy of boston they could have probably beat every opponent they faced in 4-5 games flat

That's where I feel like Daigneult needs a game changing assistant coach to actually get him to do that, relying on Shai fouling baiting for FT layups is a bad fucking habit when they can play team basketball instead,

If KD went to the Spurs it wouldn’t have been nearly as bad. Him and Kawhi got that same chill, nonchalant energy, they would’ve fit no problem under Pop. Plus Texas is where his career started, so it’d feel more like coming home instead of crawling to the team that just knocked him out. But nah, KD just wanted the free ring. Simple as.

OKC vs Rockets opening night,

Watch KD tear up a bit and then drop 40 on OKC and actually somehow win,

The Rockets cooked OKC last season for that reason, pace and pressure
>>
>>150367227
No guarantee the Rockets click right away on opening game/day. Last time we saw KD he was rolling his ankle while down 50 as a Sun lol.

But yeah, don’t get it twisted Rockets got KD, DFS, Capela back (still solid at 30, not as bouncy but still a lob threat), and they even scooped Okogie for SG/SF/3 point/backcourt threat depth. The real hope is just squeezing 25 good minutes outta KD without him breaking again. If it all goes south? They can just tank it out and pray for Dybantsa next draft, the worst case scenario they sign KD to an extension, they should push for KD to take a minimum rather than having him gobble all the cap
>>
>>150367227
Rockets were 2 - 4 against OKC last season, with Shai dropping 50 on them one game and one of those loses being without Caruso and Chet.
>>
>>150367439
But that April L was straight up embarrassing. OKC had everyone and Shai still got clamped to like 20, meanwhile Dort/Wallace/Caruso combined for a grand total of 6 fucking points.

Green + the Turk dropped 30 on their heads. Rockets + Indy got the blueprint: run that fast pace, zone em out, chuck 3s. OKC been getting cooked by GSW all season too. Yeah Chet fell on his ass like a retard, but they still won games without him. So why the fuck they struggle so bad vs Warriors as well??

Also doesn’t help that they made zero trades and added no real guys outside rookies, then paid the 7-foot minnesotan fag retard 50 mil. Now every team can scheme around OKC because Presti did nothing. 4 eyes is a literal clown of a GM, obsessed with raw euro-tards and traded McDaniels for Poku of all people, who didn’t even last longer on the team than my last relationship

>>150367559
Oh great, it's the presti trade retard again,.
>But that April L was straight up embarrassing. OKC had everyone and Shai still got clamped to like 20, meanwhile Dort/Wallace/Caruso combined for a grand total of 6 fucking points.

OKC also had clinched the first seed and was coasting at that point. The loss was no more embarrassing the all the other times they embarrassed the Rockets that season. Add in the fact that it took FVF going for 38 for them to win a game, and they lost their best SGA defender and 3 point shooter in Brooks, and there's no reason to be scared about the fucking Rockets lol.

>OKC been getting cooked by GSW all season too.
Yeah, I'm sure an old ass GSW team that's only getting older, has Kuminga quiet quitting, and lost looney is gonna be threat. They won't have the luxury of playing OKC missing it's starting center for 2 games either.

>>150367682
>My favorite leaf poster who somehow lives here

Fair points made, but they still could've traded Chet it was clear from game 1 against Denver he was the weak link, your a retard if your trying to defend that contract, Brooks was more of a rabble rouser, and gritty defender, and they signed Okogie for that reason to replace him as SG, Capella and DFS means more better defense, and DFS is 40% from 3, and KD as well, and FVV is 42% on a good day, so i'd argue Rockets have a good chance to win a 3rd ring even if the squad looks adjacent to 2006 miami or 2014-15's as well

Even watching that Rockets game in April they looked out of place, now with GSW I get what point your trying to make but Shai went 50 in the GSW game and they still lost by 7,

>old ass GSW team
GSW definitely misses the playoffs next season, but losing to them this year shows they have no answer for Curry’s zone-out offense. Even if they beat GSW next season, it’ll be against a weakened team with a shit FO. Draymond should’ve been booted the moment he chimped out and punched away the future of the team in Poole. Now the FO and owner are infighting over Kuminga, even though his issues aren’t his fault and he’s basically like, ‘if I’m not valued here just let me leave.’ But they refuse to let him go and want to either resign him or trade him for a superstar.
>>
>>150367854
Most of thunders deeper bench didn't even get minutes in the playoffs/finals though,

Joe, Wiggins, Jay-Will, Mitchell, if you know you know, and again the Warriors traded off/let go of some guys to get KD, when OKC gets trounced like Boston next season, im gonna celebrate it, and I wouldn't be surprised if Chet gets injured like the bum he is or plays so awful that OKC trade/waives and uses picks as well, like Lakers did to Westbrook, iirc
>>
>>150368095
KD and FVV are pretty decent when healthy and without SGA or JDub OKC is kinda bad

Now for my reddit spacing cause im autistic,

Dort isn’t really a true shooter, his physique even reinforces that, he’d be better on the Commanders or Steelers as an above-average safety.

Wallace’s talented, but he’s not a creator. Needs to be fed and needs a good open look.

SGA is too ISO, unlike Tatum who was unselfish and could be worked around no matter what.

So there’s no guarantee everyone on OKC will get a 3-point shot with SGA as the focal point long term.

And the 69 gorillion he’s getting next season might not do anything to help his attitude.
>>
>>150369066
One trade away. Simons for an NBA Center. Then when Tatum gets back, he will slot back in at the 4 and we will have an NBA quality line up.

Celtics have way too many projects. Even the people we are counting on like Queta, Hauser and Pritchard are still projects. None of the players have been NBA starters. What will they do with +30mpg? Can Queta control the fouling and still give us that energy? Hauser has had re-occurring back issues - only getting 22 mpg. Is he ready now? Someone just wrote Pritchard is a top 50 player. Really? I have a lot of confidence in Mr. P, but let's be real. Other players in 50 range are Mikal Bridges and Darius Garland.

Even if one or more of our projects break out, there is a good chance that none of them position for the rotation when Tatum gets back. We don't need bench players. We need NBA starters.

I find this nihilistic thinking to be embarrassing and un Celtics-like. If we were Charlotte and we had Brown / White / Pritchard, we would be doing everything we could to win games. Instead we are writing off an entire season. We have no clue what 26'-27' will be like. We may do all this mediocrity only to get a #10 pick - which may not even play minutes next season. Are we whizzing away a whole year for a lotto chance?

One more trade, please. Balance the roster. You cant have 115m going to the guards and only 7m going to the centers. That is asinine.

Have you ever played shirtless against a fat sweaty guy? They are sweating, but their skin is cold. It’s like playing against the margarine right out of the fridge. I never wanted to make physical contact with the fat guys. I imagine that’s one reason Jokic is so good on offense.

This has decades full of GOAT debates and player comps. Euros with half the accomplishments of an MJ or a Lebron shouldn't be above that.

Jamal Murray gave quite possibly the greatest second option performance in a WCF ever that year, and yet glazers and fanboys will say he was carried because he wasn't an All-star. Why aren't I allowed to talk about this?

As a first option, with all the plays drawn up for him and with 120 touches a game, a full 30 more than Murray that postseason, on worse efficiency than a guard. Make it make sense.

A) You're acting like Murray's efficiency isn't due to Jokic being the #1 option, attracting double or even triple teams and then passing out of them creating open looks
B) Jamal Murray has the durability of a baby hummingbird with ADIS and would crumble into dust if he had Jokic's workload.

Jokic was getting single covered by AD and Rui. Jokic gets doubled probably the least of any superstar in this league, because of his height and passing threat. Did you even watch that series?
> Jamal Murray has the durability of a baby hummingbird with ADIS and would crumble into dust if he had Jokic's workload.
I'm talking about a single series where he played 41 MPG, 1 less than Jokic. Nice attempt at deflection though.

Got any real arguments, or more irrelevant excuses?

But he wasn't the primary ballhandler or main scoring option in those minutes so they were easier minutes.

And besides, do we seriously going need have a discussion about the relative durability of Murray Vs. Jokic? Murray gets hurt or sick every fucking playoffs and is streaky as shit. Jokic is an iron man, dependable, clutch as fuck and the best player in the league. No shit one guy gets the ball more than the other

I actually doubt that. Murray gets doubled more because it's easier to shut him down with the double. Jokic isn't even in the top 20 most doubled players in the league. He's below guys like Trae Young and FVF.
>But he wasn't the primary ballhandler or main scoring option in those minutes so they were easier minutes.
Which makes his statline even more impressive. Put up an MVP caliber statline while having to lead the second unit and play with the bench, unlike Jokic who only ever plays with 2 other starters on the floor

I never said anything about durability so I don't know why you keep bringing it up like it matters for a single series. It's irrelevant to the argument.

they shouldn't get slaughtered during bench lineups anymore but ultimately it still feels like they live and die based on Braun punishing teams for leaving him wide open
>>
>>150382851
They will be about the same depending on what version of Brown and Jonas they get and if this is finally the year Watson figures out how to play basketball. Hardaway will probably steal a few regular season games similar to Vishnu. Brown will actually give them another perimeter defender so Braun doesn't die trying to do everything. Problem is their biggest pickup in Valanciunas can't play together with Jokic so that limits his impact.
>>
>>150383036
??? Julius gets the ball at the elbow or in the high post and defenders swarm.

It's a meme to double Curry above the break and it does happen but not nearly as often.
>>
>>150383252
Double teams in the post or near the paint shouldnt count at all really.
>>
keeek babb beat down
>>
>>150383036
It's percentage of their possessions, not a total count or relative to their usage rate or anything with more nuance. And whether you get doubled teamed depends also on if the defense thinks you can properly punish them or not. Jokic and Lebron get doubled but only in certain scenarios because they want to be doubled so they can pass to the open man for easier shots. Randle has tunnel vision and when he gets the ball in iso it tends to be after he has gotten good position. And his teammate is Gobert who is not an offensive threat and tends to hang out in the paint next to Gobert. So I can see why he draws double teams: it's really easy to leave Gobert to defend the mid post and double the guy who isn't a 4D chess passer.
>>
>>150383398
>Randle has tunnel vision
Not since his first season in NY. He's been consistently good to great at beating doubles since. He's a great passer for a PF.
>>
>>150383460
disagree. He's mid. But he's really strong so he can bully lanklets which forces and double and make a basic read if the double is simplistic

The only way the Celtics can win another championship with Tatum and Brown is if they face injured teams again like in 2024. They won 60 games this year as the defending champions and they still choked to a team that didn't even make the finals. And now that they extended Mazzulla too instead of firing him it's basically impossible for this team to win anything without the whole conference being injured. Even in the Finals they got lucky because they had to play against Luka who was limping the whole playoffs and Kyrie who had mental breakdowns every time he played in Boston

Tbf Brown had a torn meniscus even before the playoffs, then got bone bruise against magic, and i think everyone knows about tatum, and he also got bone bruise against magic, and Tingus had some weird ass illness throughout the entire playoff.

Celtics have the highest winning percentage of all teams this decade but even with Tatum back (assuming he comes back the same or decent) they don’t seem all that scary, I think their dominant run is done unless they draft an elite big but I think they’re too good to tank this year
