Clippers fukked edition
whats he thinking right now?
>>150572211Oh. Perhaps I'm misremembering what happened.
I am now Stephen A pilled and question everything we thought we knew about Kawhi.
>>150572207>I hope Kawhi doesn't find out Balmer gave me more than him on the side
>>150572190NEED KAWHII TO FACE PUNISHMENT
what're Podcast P's thoughts on the Kawhi situation?
>>150572218ur nottony parker and manu were shit talking him to the media about how he was faking it
>>150572239nancy craves bbc but y’all don’t wanna talk about it
>>150572261Thats what I thought but anon is telling me i was wrong so now I dont know
>>150572261They were doing that cause kawhi cut off all communication with the team to meet with different doctors and hid from Pop when he tried to go and meet with him
Bros I fucking HATE when I keep ripping fucking FOUL smelling farts but I don’t have to shit
Selecting a tentacle of the Democratic party broker your circumvention of the salary cap is a savvy method to cement complicity among journalists. Ballmer is smart.Were it not for an autistic outsider like Torre it probably would've went unreported.
>>150572287and he probably did that because they told him directly he's faking it so he said fuck you toowhy would they say nicer things to him in private than they said to the media
>>150572288get some sleep Kev it's only Wednesday
>>150572300All that shit is irrelevant anywaysHe was forcing his way out of the team cause the Spurs didn't give Uncle Dennis what he asked for, same deal with the Raptors
>Pistol Pete againCan somebody else create the new thread next time?
>>150572207"Steve Ballmer is a liar"
>>150572343the guy who makes the general always makes it early so he can get his memes off.
>>150572288mealanon_045 you really need to fix ur diet up big man
>>150572368I mean, i can create a new one, but everyone has to agree to join, otherwise, it'd be pointless
>>150572391nah this one is the one. once it gets to like 10 or more posts its chosen. make the next one tho. a more relevant topic edition
Nobody actually thought the Clippers had a chance at winning this season, right? So just leave my nigga Whi alone he ain't do nothin' man
>>150572391It's too late now so just be ready for the next one. put a lil effort into it make it early like pistol pete anon (but not obviously earlier) and it'll probably catch on since Pete only wins by default.
>>150572401Let's hope I get to make it in time before pistol guy does kek
>>150572414Around when should i create it? Idk when's too early or too late
>>150572207His restaurant went under the same day kawhi got got
only 7 million a year though? Wouldn't you want to be asking for more money if you're doing it under the table?
This is why he has played for 11 teams in his 13 year career. He believes>making millions for playing a sport is modern slavery>he doesn't receive the same admiration amongst German fans because he's blackDirk was a 14 time all star, won a ring against a prime lebron's superteam, and is already in the hall of fame. Dennis has never even made all star, with a hall of fame probability of 0%. ZERO PERCENT CHANCE LOL LMAO EVENBut it's because you're black, Dennis. That's it.
>>150572449Hate niggers like this, always using their ethnicity to play the victim
>>150572449Fucking Dennis Shouder has the fucking audacity lmfao
>>150572449he's basically the euro pat bev
>>150572415>>150572424make it around 480 and have it ready. but don't actually post it until either he posts his pistol pete edition or we hit 500 (which is what were supposed to do but were seemingly the only general on the fucking board who cant even make a next properly)
>>150572449would Dirk be welcome if he had a different ethnicity and represented an African country or is Dennis right here?
>>150572493>but don't actually post it until either he posts his pistol pete editionYou mean as soon as he posts his new thread, I post mine right under his comment?
>>150572499Greece treats Giannis like a mythological NBA God despite his ethnicityThat should answer your question
>>150572499like say for instance Dirk is a Boer or South African.
>>150572514doesn't Giannis identify as a Nigerian though?
>>150572524yes. but Greece still treats him as their own national basketball hero with pride and joy.
>>150572524He identifies ethnically as a Nigerian and nationally as a Greek.
>>150572524ethnically nigerian , nationally greek
>>150572511yes. and we'll go to yours instead
why don't nba fans just watch the good teams no matter where they are like normal people
>>150572207food food food food food food pussy food food food food weed food food food muh dick food food food food
>>150572575The best teams do the biggest numbers unless they're lead by a superstar who flops
Japanese shoegaze...
>>15057257517 NFL games , 82 NBA games
>>150572548With the power of friendship, we shall defeat pistol pete!
>>150572218>>150572261>>150572287It's not that they didn't recognize his problem because any competent doctor could diagnose a degenerative chronic condition. The issue wasn't that Kawhi's doctors would provide a different diagnosis, it's that they were going to support his assertion that he just needed to fuck off for weeks at a time like he wanted to do because they worked for him. Whereas the team doctors weren't obliged to kiss his ass and told the team he would need frequent rest but could play more often than his doctors were claiming.Basically, Kawhi wanted to do what he's been doing with Clippers and just go AWOL until he felt like playing again and the Spurs (correctly) found that to be a untenable position because they're not run by gullible retards like the Clippers are. Although keep in mind this was all more or less a pretense anyway. Kawhi just wanted to go to LA so he manufactured a beef that didn't need to happen as an excuse. At the time people weren't sure because it sounded a little sus but they didn't want to believe a player would just flat out lie and malign an organization that had a great reputation but now that we know Kawhi is a self-serving liar who gives no fucks about anything it's pretty obvious the Spurs did nothing wrong besides not being in Los Angeles and asking him to show up for work occasionally.
>>150572575Honestly i do. I never watched miami or lakers before the luka trade. I only focused on the real contenders like Nuggets, OKC, Wolves, etc.
>>150572637not reading this essay, maybe ms rice will
>>150572325Nah I'm pretty sure Toronto was ready to bend over and give him whatever he wanted. They were so desperately eager to please it was kind of pathetic. It's just that he didn't want to be there and he had a sucker in LA willing to give the same deal so why would he stay in the place he didn't want to be?I want to say the Raptors dodged a bullet but they've been shit ever since anyway so I guess in the end it didn't matter
>>150572655a) don't ask if you don't want to knowb) reading three whole paragraphs ought to take about 30 seconds. How illiterate are you
>>150572207.
>>150572657>Nah I'm pretty sure Toronto was ready to bend over and give him whatever he wanted. They were so desperately eager to please it was kind of pathetic. It's just that he didn't want to be there and he had a sucker in LA willing to give the same deal so why would he stay in the place he didn't want to be? the most Tanenbaum and the Raptors could give him off the books was around 15m according to sources, so going to the Clippers and making a full 13m more wouldn't even be a question for him.
>the clippers downfall has begun
>>150572675My GOAT can't stop winning
>>150572637Something i'm still confused to this day is that he reinjured his ankle, and then suddenly there's something wrong with his thigh, and then suddenly it became a knee issue. Obviously, i don't think kawhi was lying, but I'm just so confused how his injuries kept shifting from one to the other.>>150572665When you think about it, it's funny how the owner wait until the clippers scandal to break out to close Harden's restaurant kekw
>>150572675
>>150572675Cloppers were never up.
>>150572689God bless Balmer’s heart, man. Damn.
Balmer would have already built a better team if he let Kawhi go a couple years ago
>>150572657Kawhi's uncle was asking Masai for shit like use of a private jet and a stake in team ownership, things that Masai himself didn't haveAt the end of the day, both Spurs and Raptors got a ring out of him though and that's more than Ballmer can say
>>150572655Nta, but I’ll condense it for you. The Spurs team doctors were right. Kawhi exaggerated the issue because he wanted to go to LA anyway.
>>150572681Compensating for a bum leg often leads to sprained ankles or knee problems because your biomechanics are all fubar and you're not distributing weight correctly. Then when they try to determine why these injuries happen they discover the underlying condition.
>>150572511>>150572548I was thinking about doing this when I saw yet another fucking pistol thread. No disrespect to one of the greats, but it's run its course. Should be about something happening now. This should've been a Fraudulent Kawhi edition. A Schroder is a multimillionaire modern slave that just got traded again edition. Fucking anything edition
>>150572692jerry west did that, he died before he could see the dynasty he created
>>150572733its not even disrespect to pete, this guy is just being cringe at this point
my genny is active again
pistol DEMON has y'all in a blender.
>>150572634hell yeah brazza
>>150572690Lol beat me to it
>>150572239where can I find a cozy midwest gf to cuddle with this fall and winter?
>>150572746we back baby
>>150572746Nothing like a good scandal to bring it back
>>150572755people used to make threads at 470 just to beat him, it gets that serious for these autists
>>150572746just a couple days ago it was 3 hours in between posts
Hope you niggas are ready for a new season. We won't take long to remind you who's in charge.
>>150572771I live in the rust belt, trust me most of them are NOT wife material or the girls you think they are.
>>150572757>>150572757My man liftin' 30lbs like tray hangpulls odee balls
inb4 nothing happens
NGL I'm sticking with Pistol Peter, the niggas conspiring against him sound like they browse reddit dot com and enjoy the company of trannies.
>>150572543>>150572538this is all confusing. why then would Europeans dislike Americans bringing up their Euro heritage? >>150572583>shoegazehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjBosga1kMY>>150572665interdasting timing with the Kawhi story. Lexing Media trying to take out the Clips again?
NGL I'm gonna protest the Pistol Peter, the niggas conspiring for him sound like they browse reddit dot com and enjoy the company of trannies.
>>150572266same one jokebot ahh website keep the dead faggots here
>>150572811It'd be nice if he switched it up with some Jerry West from time to time I can understand why there's a conspiracy afoot
pistol, mealanon, bawbs, and leafjeet kept this place alive. for those of you who came back for the scandal, respect your elders, know who you are talking to.
>>150572827pistol made brought /nba/ over to sharty and meal anon was posting his dennys in those threads
It's so fucking funny how the Clippers are so fucking stupid. They switched from having kind of a lot of money under Sterling to have a ton of money under Ballmer, but they are every bit the dumbass little brother team they've always been despite the change. Mark Cuban was right all those years ago, the Clippers will ALWAYS be the Clippers.
How much is Adam Silver fining Ja Morant for all this Kawhi and Clippers business?
>>150572795most women anywhere are not wife material
>>150572827The people that need this genny to be up 24/7 even through the dead months need some self reflection. Even if it dies it would pick back up when the season starts, what are you struggling so hard for?
>>150572827>they're still trying to prop up their failed gimmicks
>>150572858Bulgarias banished to the sharty realm, ireshart legally cant post, weapschizo and inceltic are dead. it's over anon.
>>150572816What is confusing you? Dennis Schroeder wants to be treated like an nba 14 time all star and a champion and hall of famer, but because he is not being treated the same as Dirk (an actual nba 14 time all star and a champion and hall of famer), Dennis assumes THEY ALL ARE JUST RACIST AND SHIT. What exactly confuses you here? Dennis Schroeder is a bitch. That's the answer. It should all make sense now.
>>150572840There's just something about being the B team in a major city that makes you retarded. See the Nets vs the Knicks. Hell, see the Jets vs Giants. It's not just NBA.
>>150572866what is the fate of lectivus? hes usually active during this time, especially if Serbia is playing in some tour.
>>150572875he might have been permanently banned. the shit he does here, he does on /int/ but 10x worse since it doesnt have to be basketball related. if Bulgaria got perma banned he did 100% as well.
>>150572879We know Stephen A. You take every opportunity you can to hate on the man. Sometimes justifiably so, often times it's just uncalled for
>>150572866that's the sad part, niggas can't even get their gimmicks to hit during a good poster depression kek. and trying to force it is doing you zero favors
>>150572883I'm not gonna lie. Some of those off topic posts had me rolling in laughter. I wish the jannies would recognize some good humor and fun in these threads, instead of instantly banning them.
>>150572883KEK it's all the Balkans posters. Most deranged region of the planet. Even all the Africans and the Southeast Asians aren't crazy like Balkans dudes.
>>150572883most sane balkan men
>>150572866you will never be nobitches or luxembourg
LMAOOOOOOOOO
>>150572889Stephen A knows more than us and just can't say all the shit he knows, so he funnels his hate into other aspects of Kawhi hate.
>>150572868Thank you it's all cleared up now
bruh i'm dead af fr fr no glizzy mfs desperate to be relevant on a Bhutanese WNBA forum LMAOOOOO
I love you, Hannah.
>>150572928This would be a strict but fair punishment for the Cloppers.
>>150572840There were huge red flags around Kawhi even after that Raptors title considering his very weird exit from San Antonio, the fact that he was load managed out the ass that season and still limped through the finals, the fact that he didn't want to stay on a title-wining team, his insane demands....the signs were all there. But even so I kind of understand why a perpetually underachieving second-rate franchise might want to take the risk. I mean, he chose them over the Lakers. Pretty sure that was the first time anyone had ever done that.But that second contract? Holy fucking shit, what a con job. Those first three seasons he played 161 out of 246 games and ended up sitting out by the end of every playoff run. Then, in his contract year, after three years of being mister unreliable, he suddenly feels much better and plays 68 games. What a remarkable coincidence. How fortunate for him that his health improved right as he was negotiating a new contact. And IIRC almost as soon as it was singed he had a "setback" and was out of the lineup again soon afterwards and the next season he played 37 games, lol.And I keep hearing this retarded theory that Ballmer knew what he was getting into but just wanted star power to sell tickets in the new arena, but my response to that is: outside of his contract year the dude played 65% of the games and the year after his contract was singed he played 45% of the games. I'm pretty sure no one in LA buys Clippers tickets on the assumption of seeing Kawhi because he literally flakes out on half the games. How does this team even have fans.
I don't care what anybody says, the Flippers are still /our/ team this season. UNCTION still has the most soul out of any team and their lore only grows.
There's something funny about Chris Paul returning to the clippers and then the team implodes
>>150573014Who will be funnier if they never win a ring: CP3 or Westbrook?
>>150573014I forgot that CP0 was in Golden State lol am I the only one who memory holed that shit
>>150573021CP0. Everyone would be happy for Westbrock if he won a ring. But if CP0 won, we'd be pissed
>>150571262>>150572857Nigga, are you niggas dumbfucks? It was obviously a woman. I don't remember any Drag Queen reference, but besides women watch Drag Queens too, as weird as it sounds.
>>150572466Sad Malaysiadude. You ruined your rosy complexion and chill impression for me.
>>150573021Chris Paul is a bitch and almost everyone derives pleasure from his inevitable failuresWestbrook is more of a tragic figure. A guy who wants to play the right way but is so retarded and incompetent he undermines his own team despite playing hard as hell. He had a legit chance with the Nuggets and blew it because he couldn't even make layups any more. Or shoot. Or pass. Or dribble. Or defend. He might be the best basketball player who was never actually good at anything basketball consists of
>>150573053Westbrook was a pure athlete with zero basketball IQ. His prime was amazing, almost godlike, because he had no idea how to play basketball but he was such a fucking physical god it didn't matter. It was beautiful, in its own way. But I knew, back then, that when he fell off physically the result would be pathetic. And so it is.
>>150573066Even Kobe recognized how explosive of an athlete Westbrook was, but also knew he was slightly retarded wew Kobe wew
>>150573106What a beautiful pic. Damn. We miss you Kobe
>>150573030Women are the biggest enjoyers and supporters of drag queens. Stuff like Ru Paul's drag race is 100% made and marketed for them
>>150572689lebum tricked everybody into thinking paul george was good by nearly jobbing to him in the easy conference
>>150572637i'm goin with uncle dennis says>those guys hate u they're tryin to fuck u over i'm the only one u can trustspurs go>fuck u ur faking ituncle dennis says>see? i told u nigga i'm the only one lookin out for youinto full brainwashing
>>150573066>MVP>Triple double master>low bbiqHe just forgot how to shoot.
>>150573192it's like his hands became two balloons can't do nothin with them
>>150573192Losing his athleticism and having his hand destroyed multiple times will do that to him.
>>150573192Career percentages: 45/32/66 Yeah no he never knew how to shoot
Hopefully Silver waits a year to do anything so I don't lose my chance to fully laugh at the Unction when it gets btfo on the court
So can we all finally stop pretending to like and accept kawhi as an oddball and recognize he's a lazy greedy autistic paycheck thief nigger
>>150573324lotta nba dudes is contract year dudes what you think about them?
>>150573345I think most of them aren't autism spectrum load management faggots
>>150573377still get paid well for not much in the end. they all getting the bag no matter what.
Would he be rated this high if he were still alive?
>>150573021Funny how only 1 of these won something
>>150573475Children Pornography Three with them gorilla arms, he can touch his knees without bending
>>150573324It's so funny how the Spurs never got taken for a ride like this, are the Clippers just dumb?
>>150573528Clippers were taken hostage. Kawhi going to the Lakers would've been a death sentence for them.
>>150573324How does the IRS not see it after his first payment? That money needs to be taxed, right? Or does the IRS not give a shit where the money comes from as long as they get their cut?
>>150574330They didn't actually do anything illegal, they just broke the NBA's rules

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkXGltRr7_Ethis guy sure is absolute dogshit without steven on the court
The only reason the Kawhi situation was uncovered was because they were obvious with their shell company 'endorsements' with clauses like 'If Kawhi isn't on the Clippers he won't receive this amount'. I don't see how you prevent this sort of thing from happening again, especially if organizations hide the money better than the Clippers did. Or if you more legitimately frame it as endorsements that are more implicitly attached to a contract, and the player actually endorses whatever company.

>>150577432>cheating is ok>because it just is ok???
>>150577436>they're cheating! The team still sucks and can barely win when it matters but they're cheating!lmao. competitive advantage my ass. Local sponsors always have and always will be a way of funneling more money into star players. Litereally always. The game was rigged from the start you just didn't realize you were being played.
>>150577468Except he didn't have to do anything at all for the local sponsor except be on the Cloppers. You're a retard.

Why didn't Baller just "hire" Kawhi into doing some Microsoft advertisements and have him press a few buttons on a computer in front of a camera
>>150577751I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm noting that his outlier year was after he left the eastern conference
>>150577936because that's an even more direct breach of CBA
>>150577936pretty sure there's some laws/rules stating that you can'totherwise players would advertise for all their team owners companies
Why can't Charles talk shit on KD? If he joined the warriors he'd have championships too
Meal.

Can’t believe Cam Thomas took the qualifying offer
>>150578540he bet on himself...on a team that just drafted like 4 guards
Whens the last time a player took the QO? Cam thomas aint special but he might trick some trash franchise
>>150578204share with me anon
josh harris needs to sell the team
Scam Thomas folding means the Cumnigga and P Gidddey deals are around the corner. Once the RFA situations are done, then Sosho and Shiva will finally get their vet min deals.

>>150583558These billionaire jews think they can just come in and beat out all other billionaire jews and build a championship team in no time and that everyone has been doing it wrong. Then they consistently make the worst, most shortsighted trades in league history. I'm pretty sure half of all championships recently are on the back of a team trade raping a new owner.

FUCK THE COWGIRLS LOLOL

>>150595002yes the eagles beat them. it was a weird game. scores on every possession, then there was an hour long thunderstorm suspension. then the game restarted and both teams went scoreless. eagles win 24-20. i dont even like philly. but fuck dallas
Kawhi's contract should get voided
>[Pablo Torre] PTFO can now confirm that Aspiration gave Kawhi a secret $20M side-deal. Combined with Kawhi’s secret $28M no-show endorsement deal: that’s $48M. PTFO previously reported that Steve Ballmer’s personal Aspiration investment was... $50M.

No matter what happens next, Kawhi already won in life.
Why pay one player so much though? Were they really that scared of him going to the Lakers?
>>150595255kawhi sells tickets for their new stadium, kawhi attracts free agents, kawhi gets clippers games on national broadcasts
Ayo why'd nobody tell me my GOAT was on Fallon?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gS6U79JLJxc
>>150595255Ballmer is worth over 100 billion dollars. He could give a fuck about paying Kawhi and extra 28m
How many of the uncs on the clippers are getting similar deals? That's the only thing that makes sense for some of them to join up on a team that depends so much on a semi retired player for title relevancy.
>>150595281>>150595255*6th richest person with a networth of ~$150B on the planet giving $50M to a fraud green bank. On a corporate accounting level, Ballmer is covered, he only has to worry about his image and the ensuing NBA humiliation ritual delivered by Adam Silver.
>>150595246Nothing will happen. Balmer can just pretend he was conned, swindled, and bamboozled, all while knowing nothing. It's a nothingburger
enough is enough. It was cute when it was just stories about Belichick's wacky gf, but now he's gone too far. Pablo finna find out for real

>>150595559no
Did anything ever come of Zion Williamson involved in those underground anime/furry orgies?
>>150595246Yea, Kawhi already had 2 rings and shit load of money. However, his reputation as a person did take a big hit while he gained almost nothing for his clipper arc. I'm sure many teams would have pay him almost as much even when considering the amount he got under the table. It's funny how his nickname will be Mr.no-show but it would have nothing to do with his basketball performance.

>>150595850The sooner you accept that this current NBA is almost as rigged as the 00s Stern era, you can appreciate the basketball. Adam Silver is the most incompetent and reckless commissioner of all the major US sports entertainment monopolies today. He can't even execute his own scripted league; Silver repeatedly rigs the draft, fixes the trade market, ruins free agency, grossly manipulates strength of schedules, predictably influences the outcome of games through his crony refs all in favor of the same handful of assets (as in the same big markets and handful of superstars that still actually attract eyes and dollars) and still you see teams like the Bucks, Suns, Nuggets, Thunder and Pacers make the finals only for the NBA to be completely incapable of processing any outcome that isn't Lebron vs Curry vs Durant episode MMXXV, let alone advertising it.

Imagine cheating to be mid. The unction will be a play in team.
https://youtube.com/shorts/MFx-My0TZoYHonestly Curry was kind of stupid broken in 2016. Still to this day dont know quite what happened to make that season so crazy. But he was making Threes at an absurd rate
>>150600413Niggas cheated just to peak at the WCF and get bounced by DEVIN BOOKER AND CHRIS PAUL LAMOOOOOOOOOOO
>clippers cheat and still lose because they are incompetent>clippers cheat and still lose because everybody else is also cheatingit's funny because if you know who the clippers are then it's obviously option A, because yes they are hilariously incompetent but if it wasn't the clippers then it would probably be option B
>>150600636Most other teams don't have ownership rich enough to cheat like this. Cuban probably did it which is why he's defending Balmer so hard.
>>1506004822022 Curry come close but yeah, 16 is S+
>>150600713You mean 2021 Curry.2022 was honestly one of his worst seasons, which is ironic as the season he won the chip. Seems to be a pattern in, the less spectacular the season, the more he wins a chip. His 2019 season was also somewhat good, especially the playoffs, and he lost again.Obviously this isnt a rule or hed have won the chip last year.
>>150587917Bub Carrington had the worst +/- of any player ever last year
>past few weeks, get Tmac vids in my youtube shorts feed>"what are you doing at age 24?" kai cenat clone asks>"averaging 30" >cuts to tmac highlights>get more tmac vids throughout the week>all of a sudden shams tweets this morning that Tmac and adidas reunited and signed a new dealThe mental programming by the HIGHER UPS is insane
>>1506007632022 was bad until the all star break where he got asgmvp and turned things around just in time. If start of season curry went to the playoffs the nuggets wouldve taken them down
>>150600810That was a cold response from t mac tho
>>150600791>didn't get a wednesday meal>possibly the worst item on the menunigha
>>150600826I don’t like the Wensday meal and they got rid of the Taki burger
>>150600791my man didn't get the Wednesday Meal tm
>>150600814Curry does this lately, where he doesnt really seem to try much for the year, and then towards the end tries hard.Would make things easier if he allowed himself to secure a top 4 spot so that he doesnt have to fight in the trenches.Ironically 2023, while not amazing of a season or anything was a clear season where he did try hard. My theory was that, winning the championship made him believe in his team again so he tried hard.Top bad that warriors team is garbage and all the retards trying to cope Andrew Wiggins was the true FMVP and that he had a great team, were stupid.
>>150600851I still believe the warriors should try and get giannis no matter what. Much easier said than done. But at their age draymond and jimmy arent enough help for curry.
>>150600763>You mean 2021 Curry.Yes, my b. Fucking monstrous https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSGaiLg_eoc
>>150600851no that was actually curry going life and death for the 10 seed last year quit trying to cope
>>150600891My GOAT can do it. He literally just needs people who can consistently hit open shots. If you actually watched the 2025 playoffs against the Rockets, you will know, that that was the problem. And when Buddy Hield finally remembered how to shoot, they won the series.Either that, or they need supreme lock down defense like the 2022 team. Retards complaining about size are: Retarded.The warriors have never had size nor ever needed it.
>>150600919da fuq dis nigga talkinbout???
>>150600908Curry finished 3rd in mvp voting and didnt make the playoffs thats how lethal he was. And he was better than jokic and embiid at that point
Reminder that Kevin Durant had more gravity and outperformed Curry and put up a better finals performance in 2017 that is only rivaled by LeBron and Michael Jordan
>>150600891Giannis is going to LA
>>150600841Fine, I’ll try it next time.
>>150572771Come to Milwaukee bro it’s lit out here
cam thomas took the qualifying offer? kekwho does he think will pay him next year?
>>150572827>pistol>mealanon >euro bawbs >leafjeetSchizos don’t hit the same here no mo
>>150600992True but we are talking about 2021 curry
How the league deals with Balmer will tell you how many other jewish billionaire owners are cheating like this. If they are more or less comparatively legit, Balmer is getting hosed for jewing his fellow jews. If a bunch of other owners are in on it, it'll be a slap on the wrist as they defend their fellow jew like Cuban is doing now.
>>150600992>Reminder that Kevin Durant had more gravity Where is the evidence?
>>150601019lmao no one. Acting like every team doesn't have analytics. Acting like every team doesn't already have a manlet scoring guard. Acting like teams didn't learn their lesson from the Beal situation.
Where were you when you learned some negro named Uncle Dennis destroyed the NBA and NBAPA and the CBA?
>>150601064Yea and Cuban claimed that Ballmer just got ripped off by the Aspirations jew (Sanberg), it’s fucking hilarious and depressing how talmudic this all is.
Quentin Grimes is taking the QO next, isn't he?
>>150601096kek and the nets probably won't even give him that many touches to "prove himself" now that they've drafted 3 point guards"mamba mentality" larp is killing a generation of nba players
>>150601190whats even happening with grimes? i've heard about giddey, kuminga, and thomas, but not grimeshave they been looking to trade him at all? thats what makes sense to me
>>150601190>back up manlet scoring guard who isn't even with the team that drafted himLooking bleak for him
i think jared mccain will end up like thomas, giddey and grimes76ers should build around edgecum and maxey first and foremost
>>150601192The 6'2-6'3 guard is the deepest position in the league while also still being filled with a bunch of shitters like Scam. Obviously there are more 6'2 guys than 6'5+ guys in the world. But it's kind of crazy how they are all "skilled" in the wrong ways now. The league wants floor generals, meme shooters, and defenders but AAU seems to just produce these carbon copy score only low BBIQ tank generals.
>>150601271Even Maxey is just glorified Grimes. There's a Maxey in every draft class. Edgecum is the only true building block they have right now.
>>150601278yeah the only role for one-way guards who can't pass in the modern nba is being a scorer off the bench, yet they all want starter money because of their ppg>>150601297at least maxey can playmake as well as create shots for himselfi'm not high on him, but i think a backcourt with him and edgecum can win
>>150600810i'm tired of tmac and the nba's history revisionismif tmac was as good as he claims to be he wouldn't have gotten stomped by the hornets>but his team was bad!!so were the hornetswhat're they gonna do now? run a "baron davis secretly the best pg ever but had no team" campaign too?when will it end?
>>150601096Not only that but by taking the QO he ensures no other team aside from the Nets will receive his Bird Rights, even if they trade for him prior to free agency
>>150572902>good poster depression Come on
>>150601222Morey shit the bed>>150601231he'll get traded if he takes the QO, might work out for him if he goes to the right team.
>>150601471doesn't the qo have a no-trade clause? would give grimes a bit of leverage to make sure its the right team
>>150601326He’s easily one of the most overrated nba players ever.
>You know what? Fuck yeah we did that shit. What are you gonna do about it? Im a member of the tribe you silly little golem
>>150601694>You weren't supposed to pay the goyim this much. We made these cap rules for a fucking reason - so we could all make fat stacks. Your selfish actions are a threat to the rest of the tribe.
>>150601737>u want i should take care of him boss?

>>150601884>unnecessary my dear Draymonculus, a hefty fine for Ja Morant will suffice.
>>150601326Baron Davis was secretly the best pg ever when he was locked in. He had a tendancy to drift towards fat fuck, but when he was in shape you could put him up against anybody

I always thought dunking was the coolest thing ever. And it just looks so effortless, like you just get up there ball goes swoosh and you swagger away all cool. I’m only 6’2” tho, and I couldn’t dunk. I worked on it, practiced and lifted weights. So now I can finally dunk and you know what? It fucking sucks. I’ll jam my fingers on the rim, even when it’s clean it kinda hurts my hand(s). Sometimes the ball hits me directly in the face. If I do it a bunch my knees hurt. And I basically hit layups 100 percent of the time because I’m not a woman, so I don’t even see the point. I’ve been lied to all my life. It might look cool but it doesn’t feel cool and it sucks ass. Fuck basketball, the nba, /nba/, Reddit, and all you faggots.
>theres no smoking gun though! Why are people expecting to find a notarized letter from Steve balmer saying “uhh yes we are going to break the rules of the cap and I’m going to give you the money through this scam company, this letter is so there’s no confusion i did something wrong if this ever comes out”There’s almost never a fucking smoking gun, that’s why it’s a meme, finding the murderer standing over the body with a gun still smoking from being shot. It’s absurd to expect that level of evidence. I literally can’t imagine, realistically having more evidence about this then already came out. Owner puts money into shady company, company gives player money minus small fee for absolutely 0 work at all, only condition being he plays for the team of the owner. This is as strong of evidence as you could ever hope to get for this type of thing. And yet all I hear is “uhhh maybe but there’s no smoking gun tho, where’s the hard evidence”. What the hell
ava addams is a first ballot hall of famer
>>150604986You are absolutely right. Anything talking about a smoking gun is just trying to use jewish talmudry to be like "well axthully you aren't 100% sure Light is Kira..."
>>150600981>And he was better than jokic and embiid at that pointYup. The bum ass warriors organization gave him NO FUCKING HELP
