>>151532355So are the rockets gonna fix this point guard situation or what?
>>151532355>early>BAWBYou should be killed
the genny already dead and this nigga forcing his bsRead the room bro
>>151532384Rockets fan here, yea reed was bad but let’s not overreact. We lost in double OT to the defending champs, Reeds first meaningful game where he plays huge minutes and it’s on national tv vs SGA, what did you expect?
>>151532384Can they trade for CJ?
>>151532404It wasn’t SGA breaking Sheppard down off the dribble it was Cason Wallace and Aaron Wiggins driving directly past him into the lane for easy dunks weak ass zone
>>151532404>let’s not overreactDo you know where you are
Don’t run when it comes.
>>151532355Petey Cuckitini
That bawb looked liked a lost puppy on the court.
>>151532448he was twitchy and explosive learn ball lil bro
>>151532488No he got locked up by Ajay Mitchell
>>151532497get the meth pipe out ya mouth
>>151532507Watch basketball games, Mitchell nearly forced an 8 second violation on Sheppard and he throws up some garbage as soon as he crosses half court to start the 4th. Gets benched immediately thereafterHis defense led the 3rd quarter comeback for OKC, Wallace and Wiggins literally just drove past him in the zone to an open rim possession after possession When specifically was he “twitchy explosive” or “good on defense?” Use in game examples
Rockets win that with vanskeet
This thread reeks of jeet
Serious question, what's the warriors ceiling this season?
>>151532384I’d die over white girl like this.
>>151532546did you see him dribble he was the twitchiest player on the court you on some shit bruh he has 44 inch vert
>>151532604I see
>>151532435Let it be know, BAWB LUKA LOST LAST NIGHTBAWBAUSSIE, SLOVENIA, SERBIA WHERE ARE YOU????>>151532435Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back.>>151532448>>151532385>>151532384>>151532590I want all bawbs here now that it came. Or will they run, just like they did when Shai held up that FMVP trophy
I can't see how this Lakers team doesn't switch up by like Christmas. That roster is atrocious. Silver is going to force some goober to trade.
>>151532435bawbaussie and the Slovenian (the latter especially) will show up here the next time luka plays, they will act like nothing happened, they will be here when shai loses, they will act like nothing happened, but let this be known, they ran when it came, every time. Hold them accountable, call them out for what they are, bawb cowards.>>151532628>>151532435Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back.
>>151532720>bawb comes out to playFinally, been looking for you. So I’ll ask some questions1. Why did you run when shai won?2. How does it feel to be at the mercy of myself and SGA once again? Last game, we got reffed (KD calling timeout when he had none). We are going to repeat, so the question is, will you and your bawb crew run again like last year? Or will you be a man, and fight.>>151532628>>151532435>>151532676Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back.
>>151532435Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back.

>>151532848>refs ignore KD calling timeout when he had none>Amen and Sengun allowed to handcheckEnlighten me, bawb>>151532435Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back
SGA shoots the three right in Thompson’s face
>>151532867
>>151532589A ring.But it'd take a lot of luck. They'd have to stay healthy, which is a big if since they're old as fuck.They'd also need some injuries to happen to other teams. But this isn't such a huge if as recent rings by the Celtics and Bucks have shown.
>>151532435Stay there, be a man. Don’t run, fight back.
>>151532905Ok, so admitted you were wrong on that front, concession accepted.1. This image isn’t implying what you think it is, refs constantly missed calls on SGA, but when he got them, it was fair. Getting to the line is a skill, a skill in which SGA has mastered (bawbs can and will seethe about this all they want)>>151532435>>151532628>>151532760>>151532915Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back
Rockets need Dinshitty
>Rockets put out this giant allegedly defensive lineup>SGA still gets his 35 points and 14 FTs + tip
>>151532985how can the calls be both fair and manufactured
>>151532435Stay there, be a man, don’t run, fight back
>>151533028They just played zone the entire game
>OKC still boos Durant>chased out of the Warriors>Nets was a failure>Snus was a failureMercenary ahh player loved by 0 teams
>>151533028>biggest starting lineup of all time>does nothingManleet still determines if the Rockettes rise or fall. Wild stuff.
>>151532760You talk too much BABB. Are you afraid your team will choke this year?Don't run when it comes, ok?

>Development: New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns has been downgraded to doubtful to play in tonight's season opener against the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources tell ESPN.
>>151533155So Hart starts
>>151532589RING
Warriors are seriously starting Dray at center?
>>151533199locked up Dominayton with ease
>>151532628The BAWBs on the Lakers balled out and carried the team. It was the worthless BABBs who failed to do their part and let the team down. Many such cases.
>>151533155>>151533160guaranteed win
>>151533199warriors fans trust draymond desu the problem was always the big loadnow that horford is there its okay
>>151533160I thought hart was out
>>151533286scheduled loss for the knicks then
We already got a new white boy sniper, Reed and Knecht can go
>>151533451and he's got brothers coming upwe're getting the triple k white lineup in charlotte
>>151533451Panini still making cards? I thought it's Topps time now
>>151532384couple takeaways from the game>reed looked bad and unprepared both at PG and on defense (shooting was okay)>tari looked both bad and unhappy to be there, probably because of his contract but either way he played poorly>sengun looked awesome, the threes were very unexpected and he hit 10/11 free throws>amen looked great apart from the 0/7 at the three, hopefully that improves. awesome defense on SGA until he went out because of his injury>KD looked as advertised and we probably would've won but for some reason the team started going away from him (yes lu dort was defending but still it's KD, he can get through lu dort)>jabari did pretty much what he was asked to doOverall I'd really like it if the rockets traded for somebody like jrue holiday, just a very solid PG who knows the position and what it entailsAmen wasn't terrible at it and he had some good playmaking in there but the issue with him always being on ball is that it takes away from him being off ball which is where he really shines because of how versatile he isI also hope he's not out for weeks because I may kms if that happens
>>151533553Tabari, Reed and a first should be enough for Jrue
>>151533505the license rolled over officially october 1st so panini could make licensed cards until then, I'm guessing that one's licensed because it's a panini instant from the summer league
>>151533028Amen had SGA locked until he went out
>>151533611They played zone and had two at the top (Amen and Jabari) guarding Shai most of the game, also Amen went out with 2:58 remaining in the first overtime. Shai had 23 in regulation
No one is ready for Dick
>>151533637OKC won by one point in double overtime, Amen in the game 100% would've made the difference especially because they kept going to Shai in the final plays of the game
>>151533667white boy cant play D
>>151533595I see, gotta respect Panini for milking the fucking summer league just as the deadline comes
why is the thread so dead the season just started
>>151533736That’s not in any way mutually exclusive with the facts I stated
>>151533667and then he never scored 30 again the rest of the year
>>151532435Stay there, be a man don’t run, fight back
>>151533845half the thread is just blunderskitz. maybe people weren’t lying when they said schizos carry this place.
>>151533845Games don't matter yet
>kd realizing he made a huge mistake signing with the rocketsYou could have been a Nugget
>>151533883Cause they never let Dick go again
>>151533845season doesn't start til feb lil bro
>>151533845The season doesn't start until April at the earliest
>>151533882My point is that 23 points is below average for a player like SGA and that is to Amen's credit as a defenderThe fact he had 23 in regulation does not detract from amen's impactAlso the rockets being in zone is only partially relevant because amen was on SGA most of the time anyway
>>151534036He lost them that game. Sengun carried the whole team.
>>151534110Are you retarded? Hes the only reason they werent blown out by 49 by half time.
>>151534110nah he was goodthe rockets just stopped giving him the ball for some reasonthe loss is mostly on reed/tari, that dunce who gave up the four point play before the half, and partially amen shooting 0/7 (technically 1/8 if his foot wasnt on the line) from three
>>151534036He would get clowned for being a "bus rider" even if he won a chip with the nuggies.It would just be a different version of the warriors situation.
>>151534168>for some reasonHe wasn't open. OKC defense is too good and was denying him.
>>151533845season starts during the finals game 7
Dorian Finna Ass Smith wasnt very good but the lakers simply did not replace him and now theres a hole in this team
>>151534051>hyped in rookie season early games, disappears to the g league for a while>hyped in sophomore season, disappears the rest of the leaguecall that refractory period
>>151533553>reed looked bad and unprepared both at PG and on defenseHe looked just like he did in preseason just against better competition this time I don’t understand peoples high expectations for him. He was never much of a playmaker and barely got to play last season.>tari looked both bad and unhappy to be there, probably because of his contract but either way he played poorlyI loved watching Tari last year and watching him last night was really disappointing. He didn’t have his usual energy and his shooting was awful, I hope he doesn’t quiet quit and comes back next game and plays hard.
>>151532831Do Luka Stan’s ever wonder if it’s one player and not the team, you know, a key part of the actual sport?
>>151534182lu dort was savaging him but he probably could've gotten past him if he got the ballit's KD after all
>>151534200I was told Jake Lavaria was better than DFS
Kek I dont even know if I should askmBut how are reed Sheppard believers fairing?Honestly...No offense. The only excuse and pass, is if he is younger than 20 years old, and never played college basketball.I dont even know if people understand the problem with him. Its not the defense. Hes small so yes hes going to get hunted, he didnt actually play that bad defensively, he doubled at the right time, zoned properly, switched decently, hes an okay team defender, they didnt actually lose that many points when he was on the court, and Shai was scoring on everybody once he got that weird midrange pushoff down, because nearly every single one of his middys were uncontested, even Amen wasnt stopping him, and shai didnt even play that good this game OT. Saved his efficiency hard, because he got more shots up and freethrows, and even then, he was still below 45 fg%The ACTUAL problem if you were watching, was Reed's offense.I think it was a confidence thing because this dude picks up the ball so early for a guard its crazy. He clearly has no handle, or good ball security or else he wouldn't pick up so early. The second problem is that when hes out of the play, he'll either be standing in the corner or WAAAY at the top of the key. Thats why so many of his shots were so far out. Hes not a good cutter, hes not good offball, he cant create space, and his pull up isnt fast enough for a dribble hand off shot.Dont get me wrong, part of the reason he sucks so bad is because Houstons offensive gameplan is legitimately garbage. But the reason Houstons offense is garbage is because EVERYBODY is like Reed but slightly better. They also dont cut, also dont move off ball, so ball movement is poor, but even if they did, the only passer that can take advantage of that is Sengun and Reed. The funny thing is reed actually did make a couple solid passes, but every time it was to that blubbering oaf steve adams that cant catch a ball or put it in the basket.This will be ignored
Lebron watching his shit ass team from the bench was funny as fuck. He hates these niggas
A lot of people are saying the Vegas expansion team should be casino themed but I honestly think they should be called the Dragons.
I don't come here to read dissertations. Please keep your posts to 50 characters or less. Thank you.
>>151534253He's a young guard. He's learning. I'm not worried at all. Go look at FVV's stats early in his career. And he played 4 years of college compared to Reed who played one.
>>151534271I feel the same way
>>151534211not that guy but luka got a decent supporting cast exactly 1x, and he took them to the finalsno one who posts stuff like you follows up on the secretly underrated dwight powells and thjs and josh greens of the world
>curry couldnt create speration from.....Luka, fucking twice sigh its over isnt it. my goat is washed...
>>151534253Relax bro it was the very first game of the season vs the champs
Nets vs hornets why do half these trans even exist
>>151534253you write like you watched too much anime growing up
>>151534280>Go look at FVV's statsretard. stats are not the problem, and the comparison isnt with a young vanvleet anyway, you can find far better forgotten name guards at that age than either of them
The actual season finally starts tonight. Get ready for HarpGOD to outshine Cooper Flagg.
>>151534308>why do half these trans even exist>these trans???
>>151534253the expectations for reed shouldn't have been that high to begin with, everybody knows the 2024 draft was going to be dogshit going into itstephon castle was rookie of the year and he sucked ass
>>151533144You remind me of inceltic last year. You know what happened to inceltic, right? He was talking shit all year long but he run when it came. Don't be like inceltic. Stay and fight like a man
Rockets about to get Simmo the Savage
>>151534308>guys, I'm thinking about trannies again
What if the Mavericks are better than the Lakers this season? Will I really have to apologize to that one dude who wrote essays about how Nico Harrison is a genius?
>>151534308lil bro types trannies so much it auto corrected
bros should I start Ace Bailey over Norman Powell tonight?
>>151534352sengun should be the one babying kd in a stroller

>>151534379kubo tite really has a talent for drawing hot chicks with huge knockersanyway yes you should compliment nico harrison for swearing fealty to israel in exchange for the #1 pick
>>151534356>the expectations for reed shouldn't have been that high to begin withIts not my fault that theres a weird consorted effort by a loud but small group of people to call him White Steph Curry, and hype up his college and G league numbers "OH MY DAYS HE SHOT 50% PERCENT FROM 3 IN 1 YEAR OF COLLEGE HES LITERALLY LE STEPH CURRY!" lol.
>>151534418They said he's ok to play tonight
>>151534428now I get why you're pmsing, they damned your husbando with faint praise
>>151534352>Shai in the back corner holding his title and finals mvp because nobody gives a fuck
>>151534428ypipo be doin tha most
I’m all in on Goon MVP, dude was the best player on the court last night
>>151534465it's the curry-loving currylover
>>151534326>stats are not the problemSo what's the problem then? Stats aren't perfect but they give you a pretty good picture of how a player is performing and how he's valued by the team. FVV wasn't even a regular rotation player until he was 23. Reed has lots of time.And the comparison with FVV is apt, since they are both small guards with limited physical tools, although Reed is much more athletic and a much better shooter.Reed had one bad game against one of the best defensive teams of all time. I'm not worried. He will continue to grow and improve as the season goes on.
>>151534487definitely all nba if he keeps playing like this
>>151534367>incelticYou mean the coward that I chased away? >He was talking shit all year long but he run when it came.I was here all of last year, I stayed when my team lost (unlike bawbaussie, serbia and the Slovenian) and I also was here to reap the rewards of my teams success (NBA Championship).

>>151534487He hit a bunch of lucky 3's which inflated his stats. Sengun is never going 5/8 from 3 again in his life.
>>151534512Correct, the lights were a little too bright last night for what is essentially a redshirt rookie against the best defensive team in the league. I’m not really concerned about Commander Shepard having a bad game under extreme pressure at this stage in his career.
>>151534605You’re Indian. No one respects you, you’re country or what every shitty opinion you may have
>>151534605>hitting good open 3s in rhythm when it’s been a focal point of his offseason training is “lucky”anon….
>>151534487He was being guarded by Caruso: the Jokic stopper, too.He's officially the bets center in the league now.
>>151534379lmao no Luka lead the Mavs to the finals the year prior to the trade. If AD can't do the same and win, no apology is owed.
>>151534640TRVKE
>>151534639OKC's defense gives up the 3, and they were specifically sagging off him. He won't be that open against other teams.

>LeDiddy
>>151534782Sounds like he just needs to stand up on the sideline instead of sitting on the bench. It's triggered by standing up from a seated or lying position.He might have attacks of it when getting up after getting knocked down mid-game.The NYT article on him doesn't make it sound like it's going to be a serious thing:>Post-diagnosis, Porziņģis and his doctors know how to manage POTS — and it’s without the need for any special medication. A high-salt diet and a more regimented non-basketball resting schedule is a must.https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/16560-postural-orthostatic-tachycardia-syndrome-pots says it's not life-threatening so he's not risking his life by playing basketball.
Be prepared to apologize when the Mavs are a top-4 seed and the lakeshits miss the playoffs.
>>151534291Luka has always had a solid team around him and it was the TEAM that got him to the finals, it was PJ who beat the thunder. Luka is just a flashy box score filler, aka a black hole/melo
>>151533845schizos have devolved even further to just repeat the same phrases over and over now. How can I shitpost to just people ritualposting?
>>151534782its over
Kek look at the way these niggas guard a 37 year old steph off ball. Like are you kidding me? Thats why whenever box score watches say steph had a bad game. These niggas need to be dismissed as non ball knowers.Steph was literally 1 shot away from being efficient field goal wise.The only actual criticism that should be directed towards steph is how fucking weak is iso game is now. Dude was getting locked up by fucking Luka??? Luka? And I think this even happened more than once. That's concerning. Hoping it was just an off night for his handle. Of course steph will always provide value and open looks for teammates even without the ball. But I can already tell, there will be a night where the entire warriors team will be bricking like mfers, Jimmy wont be dropping more than 25, and steph will need to be the entire offense.Thats my only worry. Really excited for the Denver series. Theyre pretty squarely considered the 2nd best team in the west right now. If my warrgods can have a good game against them. I think ill be at ease, since with Melton coming and, and a possible Kuminga trade in January, wed be pretty much set for a deep playoff run.
Kino back on the menu.

>>151536049HECKIN KINORINO AND SOVL! XDDDDDDDDD
https://youtu.be/zQxD_ch0FnI?t=2m29sFor anybody by the way who doesnt believe the steph curry gravity memes. It is literally insane what this man does to defenses. This shit literally looks like somebody is manipulating the defensive AI of the lakers in a 2k match.This is probably unironically why retarded old heads think defense isnt played in the modern NBA because theyre low iq retards who dont understand spacing. And btw, Curry isnt even at the perimeter or the top of the key, hes fucking doing this within the 3 point line.Its why comparing Jokic vs Steph offense is so hard. Jokics offensive value is so much more direct, in your face and easy to see. He dominates the box score and stats. But the stats still cant even properly account for stephs gravity. Steph has a worse plus minus than fucking Podz, despite contributing shit like this to Butlers stats.I wish I wasnt just considered a "Curry lover" and somebody else could understand and appreciate this as much as I do. Curry makes basketball so fun to watch. Ball movement, and Offensive schemes just look so good when hes on the court.
>>151532073The funniest thing Rodman's kids are the most successful, His daughter is full on soccer player, his son is still getting around in G league but still grinding, none of them seem to be pozzed or anything
>>151535438fuckin retardwhere is reggie bullockwhere is thjwhere is dinwiddiewhere is christian woodwhere is josh greenwhere is dwight powellhow is luka dragging them down years later
Like dude. I cannot emphasize enough how much Steph Curry proves you will not understand the basketball game if you only watch the box score. This shit is literally ridiculous. Yes the Lakers are a bad defense, but weve seen Steph do this to good defenses, he did this all playoffs against Houston for example, the reason it went to game 7 is because Houston face guarded steph while zoning everywhere else and even when teammates got open looks they couldnt hit the shot (Apparently almost all the rookie starters were injured, excuse? or not? what happened happened.)
>>151536049Let’s goooooo

>>151536288
lmao nigga who do they think is watching 2 hours of sga wtf?????????
Want to start watching basketball from Montana, which team do i watch bros. Thinking nuggets or jazz. Dont give a damn if they suck or not just whichever makes sense for my location.
>>151536288why is he a lightskin bitch on the cover?
>>151536330>Who do they think is watching 2 hours of sga wtf?Reminds me of this lol>>151536586Nuggets cause its technically closer to Montana and is a stronger team although Colorado + Denver is a pretty pozzed with a gay jew Gov
Normies getting access to stats is the dumbest thing ever. This is a comment in a video literally showing Kobe hitting the backboard with the ball because he was so tunnel visioned on his shot that he tried a fade away (fade to the right) in the paint against 3 guys while Gasol was open.
>>151536586craptors
so my rapshits are contenders this year, right? you guys told me they are
>>151536702contenders for dybantsa
my wuffs play tonight :)
the hornets are fun to watch until lamelo ankle gives in and everything falls apart
>>151536675I don’t like canada. Im sorry
the real nba starts tonight after yesterdays ceremony exhibition games
So whats the timberwolves plan for this season? They got completely humiliated by OKC and just decided to run it back?
>>151534999Is AD and Kyrie even playing this year?
>>151536586Both of them border you, so go with what you vibe with. Nuggets have the new GOAT in Jokic. Jazz are an eternal pain rebuilding team with their new GM. But I'd switch over to the Seattle team if the NBA ever expands again.
>>151537066Run it back with improved ant + randle, hope shannon, dillingham and clark work out, hope ddv is betterthey reached the western conference finals twice in a row
>>151536049social media ruined the nba
Alright there's too many games going on tonight.Which one's to watch?
>>151537148Im a fan of Shannon's game but I honestly dont expect the Wolves to be better this seasonI think losing NAW gonna be huge
>>151537066Sometimes you only have bad options and running it back is the best of those bad options.
>>151537066No plan is going to beat OKC this season.
>>151537193my nigga NAW really gone mayne, shits brutal
it is pretty incredible how no one gives a fuck about either team that was in the finals. nba is a joke
>>151537175it also ruined art, video games, politics, the economy, roads, fashion, business, food, tv, cinema, the 2010s and the entire nation of United States of Jewmerica. What else is new?
>>151537196The Wolves got themselves in a weird situation regarding Naz ReidHe became a fan favorite out of nowhere which led to the wolves having no option other than giving him a big contractI dont think hes worth all that and definitely dont think its a good mix to have him, Randle and Gobert together
Billie Eilish is RAPING the Knicks tonight.
So BIG what if: Rockets in 1984 end up trading with Trailblazers and end up getting Jordan, Olajuwon, and Drexler. How many championships are they winning?
My pick for Eastern Conference Champions this year…
>>151537310Seeing as the comp is still Celtics, Pistons, and Lakers - they're winning 1 chip maybe. Jordan, Hakeem, and Drexler were extremely talented 90s opportunists.
>>151537310zero cuz zero connective passer, and no triangle offense to maximize MJ.also not enough retards talk about how carried that rockets team was by a kick out 3 pointer.
>>151537320
NBA shouldve expanded years ago bring back the sonics
>>151537320Cant get my hopes too high this team is cursed with injuries
>>151537066They hope Denver takes out OKC since they own the Nuggets and would no issue with them.
I'm ready for another boring LEast and a competitive West
>>151537383The east will be even more embarrassing this season
>>151537105AD is ready. Kyrie likely won't be back until after the ASB. No reason to rush him for late January.
>>151537281I think it's a fair deal, Naz has kept improving and changing his role between forward and center, and he's got a pretty unique skillset as a bigman that should be valuable in the modern nba. A big man that can shoot 40% from three and has a decent handle at 21m seems pretty good; KAT makes 2.5x that much the cause and solution to all wolves problems is still rudy gobert. they really need him but he makes the way they want to play ideally and roster building difficult
I need Rudy to teach his fellow Frenchman all his defensive secrets. He's looking promising.
>>151537066>run it backrun what back, they lost naw, mike conley is aging out, and they're gambling on rookiesthey're gonna beat the nuggets and no one else
league pass legends hoop tonight
>>151537431Yeah man Gobert is such a head scratching player. He can look like a god in one series and then be completely unplayable in a different matchup. I think the wolves will move on from Gobert or Randle after this season
>>151537553both have 2027-8 player options
Is Anthony Edwards an alpha or not?
>>151537617#pray for ANT
Get him off my team NOW
>TNT crew on ESPNIt feels so ICKY
Fucking ripLike half the team is out right now
NBC is Jordan. ESPN is Lebron.

i need bam's bbc in my pussy
Chuck looks weird as fuck on that ozempyic diet
>>151537855Nah man it sucked. We wanted him commenting in real time in the studio about the games like Shaq Chuck and Kenny do. This is just a random interview about how bored he is after basketball.
>>151537881Tatums girlfriend....
why did they make it a big sob story about this show ending last season if it's just the same damn show on a different channel this year
Who should it bet on today?
>>151537846I take it back, keep inviting champion players next to ringless bums. This is hilarious. Melo deserves this and more.
I haven’t watched NBA basketball in a while, is the based French Hornets fan still in here?
>>151538017because it died then went to hell
>>151537773Good,that had an opportunity to advantage of the offseason and sign legitimate FAs and they refused, they're reaping what they sow, Dynasty died before it started

>>151538223That’s a big squad.
>>151538223i thought Durant was 7ft
Formally apologising to Italy for not knowing how deep Sengooners bag is. Probably the second best big ITL this season
>>151538223I don't think I have ever met anyone in real life that is close to 7 feet tall. How the fuck are there so many of them playing basketball
>>151538278>IN THIS HOUSE SENGUN IS A HERO END OF STORY
>>151538317I thought I was tall until I met this 6'5 nigga, there is always a bigger fish>>151538323kek
season opener time
>>151538317Adams' dad was a 6'11(?) Bong army soldier and his mom was a Tongan. He's too big for rugby so ball was his shot ig
>>151538317they scour the planet for these giant niggas manute bol was hunting lions in Africa with a spear before the nba found him for instance
I'm not sold on Wembrittle until he shows up in the post season and wins Just Saying
>>151532385>>151532398Based>>151538265He's actually 6'10 barefoot. He initially lied by saying he's 6'9 when he came to the league, and the everyone say how he's always the same height or sometimes taller than the supposed 7 footers, so everyone thought he's actually 7 ft, and then they measured everyone, and turns out a lot of players over-reported their true height
>>151538360Sophie and Caitlin strip club sex
>>151538393Makes you wonder what these big ass dudes would have been in ancient times. If youre 6'10 surrounded by 5'4 pygmy niggas or europeajn peasants do you become the kang?
>>151538409>gimmicked heightsWWF type shit kekAndre the giant was actually 6’9 and barely taller than the hulkster for instance
>>151538422George Washington was 6’2 when the average height was 5’5 so you may be onto something here jej
>>151538223Too bad Amen couldn't hit an open 3 if he literally prayed
How would he do in the NBA? Assuming he plays like he fights (as fast as someone two weight classes down with elite explosivity, power and skill)
No more Doris Burke commentary
>>151538487He was 80% from 3 in the preseason. Not bothered by a single game until it becomes a trend.

KAT made that zesty face when he missed that ft
>>151538564
Should I even watch any game today? Im just waiting on my warriors vs nuggets. Maybe ill watch Cavs and Knicks, because Ive heard some takes that Garland is actually the best offensive player on that team and so im curious how
>>151538659
do we really need to review timing on the second basket on season
mpj hooping but these teams look so unserious
>>151538436It's even funnier when you realise KD lied about his height because he didn't want to play center heh
Cooper "The Main Event" Flagg
East is trash so I get it but Brunson is so overrated, this team isn't getting past the 2nd round
Who the fuck are Jaylon Tyson and Ariel Hukporti

Donovan Mitchell shoot the ball you dumb useless faggot, For fucks sake, I hate you
>>151538731Not all are giant faggots like Towns
>>151538766gambling faggot is revved
>>151532589Championship is their ceiling, but it'll be rough coming out of the West; they have a better chance beating whoever comes out of the East in the finals if they can even make it there.
#TheResurrection
I bet flagg feels lonely. Someone put another cracker on the team. He's the only fully white player
LMAO the east is a joke i turning that shot off
Yeah he is the real deal. Please stay healthy
A friend of mine used the insult “good citizen” cause I told him I didn’t smoke drink have sex or party.My boss thinks I’m gay cause he tried talking about the “McDonald’s worker with the fatass” and I had no clue who he was talking about until he pointed out she always wore a purple shirt. So now every time a girl my age walks past I always see him in the corner of my eye, watching me to see if I’m looking (I don’t)A girl sent me nudes when I didn’t ask for them, I told her to not do that again and she called me a faggot, blocked me and her friends unfollowed me on Instagram.I’ve done nothing wrong. What’s this?
>>151538859>What’s this?not basketball faggot>>/soc/

HERE COMETH THE CELTICS!!!
Norman Powell is HOOPIN
Nico may have outplayed us with his machiavellian gambit last season but Cam Thomas and the Israel rookies WILL chuck us into the arms of Dybantsa this season inshallah.
The Celtics are so back my bros. Neemias Queta domination incoming.
What cigarettes do real hoppers smoke?
>>151538950*chuck us into the arms of whatever guy falls to 5
just turned the game on what's wrong with the cavs
>another year of kate scott
>>151538958Newports
They sat mpj and theyre suddenly down 7 in two minutes. He’s the joker now
Ngl I like the revamped offense from the knicks. Mikal must be so happy right now not having to play 48 mins for all 82 games
>>151538958Menthols
So are the Magic frauds or are the Heat better than we xirs thought? The Magic were supposed to be contenders and /nba/ is silent about their game rn. Where's the cord?
Here we goThe Payton Pritchard era is starting
I am saddened that my good friend Jared McCain will not be playing tonight.
Who in their right mind would choose Banchero over Chet? Fucking Magic
>>151538987give it until mid season before making judgement on the magicstill feeling it out with bane
>>151538958I miss baccy so much it's unrealI used to self roll Pueblo tobaccoSmoke one for me will ya?
>>151538987Paolo is a fraud. They will suck unless they get rid of him.
First year watching the NBA and I decided to pick the Hornets as my team. What am I in for? I'm a Colts and Orioles fan so I'm used to disappointment
>>151538903Chud shit aside back in 2021 i remember being surprised he fell to mid first round. I had him going 5th overall after franz cade mobley and green. Especially with Lukas rise i was expecting the mvp of a strong european league to go much higher.
>>151538965u right u know they gonna give AJ to the 9 seed Celtics We just sign 5 more bums then ig...
go hawks!! :D
Trade Jarrett Allen and Garland for Lebron.
>>151539017Im currently smoking about a pack a week or every 1.5 weeks. I should quit but i can't help wanting to drag a long marlboro or something.
>>151539020exciting disappointment
>>151539041Luka and Garland backcourt gonna be kino NGL
Are the raptors even cool anymore?
>>151539054>anymore
HOLY SHIT IT'S LITERALLY THE FIRST LITERAL GAME OF THE LITERAL FUCKING SEASON. BANCHERO WILL LITERALLY AVERAGE A SOLID LITERAL 27 POINTS A LITERAL GAME YOU LITERAL FUCKING AMATEURS
>>151538996He is your friend? Do you let him paint your nails?
Celtics defense is nonexistent. They are in this game solely because Embiid is chucking the Sixers out of the game.
>>151539043It took me two years to quit It was the hardest thing I didAnd I still wanna light one up even tho I'm 4 years smoke-free
>>151539064paulo is him. acquire hoop knowledge
Let's go Boston
>most of the first games for nuggs and timbs are at 8 and even 9pmFuck that shit.
Game 1 and nets already tanking. The bench is about to play more minutes than the starters and it’s only the first quarter
>>151539082Franz better tho
>>151539046I'll take it, the last decade the colts have been awful disappointment
The Magic should trade for Schroder, sign Theis, and reunite the German MNT.
>>151539062For a few years there they were the talk of the town
barlow hustle
>>151538987No one cares about the Magic enough to laugh at them
>>151539054Jays are cool, raptors are nothing and were never cool
>>151539054na they got swept up in the hype of that movieif Toronto was given a team today theyd call them the Toronto Labubus or sum other dum topical shit
Ayo wtf is Embiid doing
Mike Brown is elite.
>>151539099SHUT UP ITS OUR FUCKING YEAR
>Silver still putting magnets on the Inceltics rims He is so shameless.
embrick make a bucket
I really love the Magic team.A strong backcourt with suggs and BVNE and of course the twin towers. I really think this team can with the eastern conference. Better than every team except cavs and knicks
Embiid can't even moveMy boy Xavier Tillman just easily defended him and the C's took it downBruh, is he done? Like time to retire done?
What can the NBA do to make itself not so boring?
Embiid moving like he's 50 years old.
ireGOD really back
I can't believe Mike Brown is coach of the Knicks, standing on the sideline in front of Ed Sheeran>>151538996How tight is his bussy?
>>151539079I vaped for a long time but vaping absolutely rapes my lungs even more than pack-a-day smoking. Coughing up garbage constantly. What are the prices in Germany?
>>151539133knicks will be a problem but im not worried about the Cinderella cavs
How many for him tonight?
>>151539136>>151539141>>151539142its time to become a streamer with Sosho
It’s over.
>>15153915315
I was told that Embiid was back after dunking on future car salesmen and trainers
>>151539145Riley RUN
My Spurs will be good this year
embiid is washed what a fucked up day
>>151539153He has a minutes restriction, so I think, like 10-15 at max points
>>15153915336 points12 rebounds6 assists4 blocks1 stealSpurs win by 12
>>151539148i tried replacing cigs with a vape but i swear to god i got clowned on by a couple of hot chicks at a red light for vaping a few years back and went straight onto the gas station and got some luckies
WHAT'S UP ALL YOU SEXY BITCHESLET'S GO CELTICS
embiid always has a dogshit game 1, this is nothing new
>>151539139dont put eastern conference teams on tv
>>151539179If vaping didnt look super gay many lives would be saved
>>151539139make all the players play naked and oiled up
>>15153914810 yurobux for Marlboro Gold7 but if you wanna self roll Too much if you ask meYeah vapes are the devil. You can just take a hit anytime. Good thing I never got into it
>>151539166
77 looking really good for the 76ers.
vj roty contender
Edgecombe is nuts tho
EDGE CUM
>>151539139Allow reffies to call technicals for flopping. This reduces the overall level of flailing and contact baiting in the game which would hopefully reduce free throwslop. Also it would just be funny to see reffies insert themselves as the main character of games and humiliate flopper scum along the way.
BJ Edge coom > Fagg
cavs really stop looking historic the moment they dont shoo 50% from 3
How does Chris Boucher have a job but Sosho doesn't

>Melo into Knicks HoFDid he really earn that though?
>>151539239hes a lunch pail kinda guy nothing pretty but does all the little things well
>>151539139first, theyll never do this. But the answer is: change everything to how the Olympics did it. Less ad windows that break immersion, no live-ball timeouts to slow the end of the games.
>>151539226Boucher actually does stuff besides larp as a pg who's terrified of the rim
PLUMGAWD BACK ON THE HORNETS???
OK I've seen enough I'm smashing Edgecombe ROY $1000 ez money

The defense doesn't have to switch when Pritchard calls for a ball screen because they know he can't pass the ball or get a quick pull up three off.
I never expected Macey’s trajectory to be pacy harden disciple.
