Kobe has 4 years of college eligibility left.
>>151617052Does anyone have that “Joel embiid pity mvp” AI song its so funny
If you're Ausar Thompson and you watch your teammate Duren intentionally elbow your brother in the face what are you doing?
>>151617221pull his britches down and spank his big ol bubble butt until its beet red
>>151599679You expect me to believe that the Blazers could put up 7 points in 3 minutes
>>151617052>>151617052It's always funny to me that Embiid gets the generational hate for never reaching the ECF when these two never even got out of the first round
>>151617052no more celshits and ben simmons to stop us...
>>151617209https://voca.ro/193kql93SecD
>>151617316they never beg any pity mvp
>>151617404Neither did Embiid, but you're here to get (You)s so you'll say anything in attempt to get a second one from me
>>151617316Embiid was being called the best player in the league by the media and crying about not winning MVP while constantly choking in the playoffs. Nobody cares that the perennial 5th seed McGrady Ming Rockets never did anything because nobody expected them to.
>>151617396thanks anon lmfao
>(You) addicted redditors so mad they actually lie about the expectations of YAO MING
>>151617316Yao got to the semifinals once and got beat because Ron Artest and Shane Battier took turns getting shit on by Kobe
you know im pretty surprised that pantsing your opponent isnt more common in the NBA i dont think its ever happened even once but i know id totally do it to dudes if they got uppity with me
>>151617417>>151617602That was a 53 win 5 seed in the most stacked the West ever had been who would've beaten LeCavs and at least could've taken Orlando to 7.
>>151617052fpbp
i need bam's bbc in my pussy
>>151617316Ming got out the first round when Tmac was injured actually
How does KD always ruin good teams? He scores like 30 points a game on good percentages so it can't be him, right?
>>151618843Rockets need a coach who knows how to run an offense. Ime is a fraud.
>>151618843Doesn't play defense, doesn't think it's important
>>151618843Rockets lost their PG shortly before training camp. It will take time for them to figure it out and even then their ceiling is limited.
>>151618843Durant was always the problem, he needed a 73 win team and top 5 all time player to spread the floor for him to win. Even then Curry was always far more important as evidenced by them winning with Otto Porter Jr in the KD role (small ball center)
Meal~
>>151619008The small ball center role is Draymond you tard. Who's always been the second most important piece to the Curriors and the one that made just another meme pace and space small ball team into the first one that was capable of winning a championship.
>>151619041Respond to me when you watch games, both KD and Porter Jr played center in the Finals. You don’t remember KD and LeBron playing center against one another in the 2017 Finals? If not you really shouldn’t express any opinion on basketball since you’re new to it.
>>151619041By the way retarded young ass nigga Otto Porter spent 36% of his total minutes in GSW playing center
>>151619232Based retard
>>151619426Yeah good argument stupid ass boy
Imagine a timeline where Otto Porter Jr doesn't get injured....
>>151618843One day you will watch thinking basketball and realize that 30 points does not mean anything. It is an arbitrary barometer of success.

>>151613912Fuck that, BUCK FOSTON
>>151617316When did they steal a mvp by crying ?
The spirit that possessed LeBron was taken by Jokic when the nuggets raped the lakers too many times in a row… like the jim carrey movie the mask
Got some afternoon games today

Predict Wemby's Statline ITT I'll start 37 points 17 rebounds 11 blocks and 2 assists
>>151623443Is this like a racist thing to ask? Because I can't tell the difference eitherReminds me of that clip when Chuck confused a white dude for someone else and then said that all white folks look the same to him
My poor saraf is gonna get on a wemby highlight reel on his 3rd nba game baka

wemby gonna foul out again
I did not fucking expect that start KEK
I read that Kidd told his wife in the hallway after the game, away from the reporters, that he had had enough of everything. Someone caught their conversationHilarious if true

The black jerseys of Brooklyn are confusing the Spurs. They keep passing to them thinking they are wearing spurs jerseys.

Anons, will Paolo pull a Cade this year or will he just be full of 'potential'?
>>151623592If you want a genuine answer, t's perfectly normal. People aren't used to seeing faces of other ethnicities, so they all look the same to them. Just like how i couldn't the male black rappers apart when i was a kid.And i recently learned that chinese, koreans and japanese share more DNA with each other compared to other races, so that even more explains why they look similar

>somehow the nets are the best defending team against wemby so faralso when are we going to fucking stop acting as if Wemby has a bad team and hes solely carrying lmao?fuck man the narratives about wemby are going to be SO insane. It took like nearly a decade because people realized that curry was carrying that warriors dynasty and that almost all the "super elite hall of famers because im a retard that doesnt understand how hollow that word and title is and that borderline anybody who wins on a championship team gets in" were useless frauds without his gawdlike spacing
Wembanyama has an ugly game.

>spurs game free on prime>i load in>it's a women commentatorand closed
nah there's no way. there are g league teams beter than the nets. how do you dribble off your leg in your back court
This thread is dead. It's only leafs and Euros in here. Murricans too busy watching handheg. Sad.

Feels like Wemby always hits the 3 after he gets a block...
WEMVP
If Wembanjama never gets a major leg injury he might be in consideration for all-time Spurs GOAT.... Tim Duncan spinning in his grave right now
>>151627504Fat fuck can't stay healthy. And whenever he's out he puts on weight. Nico was right.Flagg > Luka all day
>>151627500>This thread is dead.yeah
>>151627075Well, Wemby ugly game would probably be the game of the year for half the players in the league, i'd say.
>>151627594>>151627686
>>151627785Even the beard? KWAB
>>151626356Wtf is sochan doing?
>>151627721>Tim Duncan spinning in his grave right nowPoor guy, Mr traditional getting disrespected even all these years later. And duncan is probably even a better raw defender than wemby, skill wise instincts wise whatever, but it doesnt matter when youre 7'4 with a godly wingspan, one summer of training with hakeem is enough.
>>151627818I was talking about aesthetics. He does not have an aesthetic game to watch like most other greats.
>>151627785kek...dawg this has to be edited, or hes deliberately playing into the memes...
>>151627820like look how fucking braindead and easy defense is for this dude, hes not even doing anything super defensively smart, just sitting in the paint kek, poor duncan, disrespected even while retired
>>151627939being a slender alien makes you look akward
>>151628024that pull up from the edge of the logo 3 was insane though, no matter how tall (although science has actually already proven that it is indeed easier for you to shoot the 3 the taller you are, bigs are just dumb oafs with zero hand eye finesse and coordination outside 6 feet for the most part)
>Luka already injuredThis guy's gonna be out of the NBA before he's 30.
>>151628167he's already 30 in basketball years
How can you be Nigerian and light skin?

Ok, Hugo Gonzalez's defense has changed how the C's look
Pritchard hair mogs Jaylen Brown.
>>151627721Duncan never missed the playoffs and was All-NBA first as a rookie. Wembust hasn't even played a playoff game yet.
>>151618843He's not a role player or a first option. That does kind of suck.
>>151628949He just needs more time...
Spurs are a great young team. People focus on Wemby obviously but Harper, Castle, Vassel all good teammates. So glad KD didn’t go to this team and we get to build up “the right way.”
>>151629070But you already gave a stupid max contract to Fox. What the hell was that all about Spurs bro?
Crazy how fast the Celtics were gutted. They got a bunch of nobodies on the court man.
Damn the Pistons hired Bickerstaff.
>>151617413the first one
>>151629284Just because you don't know them doesn't mean they are nobodies
The Pisstons really getting blown out by Luka Garza.
>>151627906Subjective.
Meal.
wembanyairball
>>151629070Cooper Flagg would've thrived in Spurs... :'(
>>151629274I called this shit out when the trade was made>naw bro you don't get it they are getting fox for pennies on the dollar it's a killer dealYeah but then you have to pay him the max and now you are stuck with a PG who can't shoot the meme, is only a fringe allstar, and doesn't really run an offense as your #2 behind Wemby. Imagine if that was an all NBA 1st-3rd team guy you were paying instead.
Nico COOKED
>>151629768post A1C
>>151629875Yes, he would've, but he would forever be in Wemby's shadow. It's better for the league for him to have his own team.
meal time
>>151616942this man looks satanic. like cruelty runs to his very core.
>>151629875He would thrive in any team that isnt trying to play him out of position as a rookie. Kidd is a fucking retard
>Dunks 1 time in years and is out for 1 weekLuka bros... T^TBut luckily it's against the kangz
>>151629768>>151630055Aura
>>151630198Nah, Kidd is doing the right thing. Coop needs to be a point forward to max out his potential. The sooner they start the development, the better.
>>151629875He'll be good anywhere. Wemby knew this which is why he brought it so hard opening night. He knows Cooper is going to be one of his rivals.
>>151630048??? why is it always a leaf that has the most inane retarded opinions? Here's a question leaf: When Kobe and Shaq played together, who was the player in the other's shadow?
>>151630252He sprained his finger going for a steal. Defense is truly a meme.
>>151630252Rest
unguardable
>>151630299The kid is just getting used to NBA pace right now. He should wait until the Mavs are inevitably knocked out of playoff contention to start doing meme shit like this. They signed Dlo for a reason.
>>151630346The difference is they were close to equal in impact and star value. Wemby is being hyped up as a future GOAT candidate. Cooper is not on his level.
>>151630381Nice meme. I'm stealing this
>>151630299He doesn't have the explosiveness to play point. Even Tatum is better at driving past defenders.
that cup is mine
>>151630479Have Nuggets ever made it out of the group stage for the NBA cup?
>“I never relax and breathe easy, my friend… Thomas Shelby said there is no rest for me in this world."
>>151616942Disgusting subhuman.
how do I filter Canadian flags?
>>151630478Lol they said the same about Luka. I thought that meme died. You don't need to be super explosive to play point, and Coop is plenty explosive anyway.
stephon castle is 11/21 from FT for the season
>>151630578did someone hurt your feefees you little snowflake? kek
>>151630627Pooper doesn't have the handles or the body control. You can't seriously be comparing him to Luka.
>>151630578You're mad because you can't refute my points. Pathetic.
When Adam Silver is arrested will the nba be saved?
>blazers coon ass coach gets got by the feds>white boy takes over>they start winningWhat's the lesson here?
It was 82-64 before I looked away now we’re losing
MPJ is a good basketball player
Nico was right, however he still lost the trade, as did the lakers.
Cade is such a good passer. He's a genius at setting teammates up.
>>151630704I didn't compare him to Luka. I'm refuting your argument that you need to be explosive to play point, which is clearly false.Luka has advantages to make up for his lack of explosiveness like you mentioned, but Cooper also has advantages over Luka, like height and athleticism.Flagg played as a point forward for Duke and did very well in that role. He's significantly better than several current point forwards were at the same age, including Tatum, Paolo, and Franz.
>>151630819So who won the trade then?
I stopped watching the Nets at half when they were down 20+ so I could watch the Devils and then the Jets came back how the fuck do the Nets keep coming back
>>151630769
>Spuds
Harper is already better than Castle
spurs run this league
Harper is a fucking demon
>>151630466>>151630708>Wemby is being hyped up as a future GOAT candidate. Cooper is not on his level.Cooper has only played 2 games this season. No one (including (You)) can make such an assessment. That would be like judging Kobe in his first 2 games as a rookie, in which he averaged 0.5 pts per game. >You're mad because you can't refute my points. Pathetic.I didn't want to waste my energy responding to a retard.
>>151630942No one, it was a lose lose trade
>>151630942The nba (((media)))
>>151627504
Having Fox, Castle and Harper is evil.Good luck to adapt your game to them while still dealing with Wemby, lol
>>151630997>Harper is already better than Castleand cooper
>>151631150Call me a retard all you want. It doesn't bother me. I can already tell I'm smarter than you. Intelligent people usually focus on logic and arguments rather than resorting to insults.
>wemby back to sub 50% >nets only 3 downdamn howd they close the gap? i think this is the spurs closest game so far
luka injured himself trying to statpad to get to 50 points (and failed in doing so). nico was so right about him.
>Call me a retard all you want. It doesn't bother me. I can already tell I'm smarter than you. Intelligent people usually focus on logic and arguments rather than resorting to insults.
>>151631285in a blowout game no less. jj reddit should be fired too
>>151630386yo....
How many games do you think it'll take Ace Bailey to reach 20 total points? He's at 2 points through 2 games right now (1 ppg).
>>151631252>Cooper has only played 2 games this season. No one (including (You)) can make such an assessment.That would be like judging Kobe in his first 2 games as a rookie, in which he averaged 0.5 pts per game.So (You) have no counter argument here? Got it. I accept your concession
>>151631399What's going on with Aerious? I thought he had a good pre-season.
>>151631403Kobe played 9 total minutes in those 2 games you retarded disingenuous faggot... Don't ever compare your DEI #1 overall to Kobr again.
>>151631150>Cooper has only played 2 games this season. No one (including (You)) can make such an assessment.>That would be like judging Kobe in his first 2 games as a rookie, in which he averaged 0.5 pts per game.Nobody views them in the same tier in terms of potential. People were calling Wemby the best prospect ever before he even played a game. Nobody is saying that about Cooper. Pre-draft hype is a thing.
Nooticing something
cam thomas legit got the ball off a shot clock reset and just shot some shitty 3 brick immediately
>Wemchoke...
>>151631456>>Cooper has only played 2 games this season. No one (including (You)) can make such an assessment.>That would be like judging Kobe in his first season as a rookie, in which he averaged almost 8 pts per game.Okay, what say (You) now?>but but you changed the goalpostsThe point remains: nobody can make that assessment after only playing 2 games in the season.
>>151631456Thank GOD somebody said it. I was about to say how fucking retarded it is to imply that judging cooper and Kobe off their first games is, when Kobe didnt even get to fucking start when he entered the league. What a retarded comparison. Cooper is so fucking priveleged that Jason Kidd is playing him PG over FUCKING DANGELO. HE ALREADY HAS A PG AND PREFERS FUCKING COOPER FRAUD.Kobe balled the fuck out as soon as he got any minutes whatsoever, legit started shooting more than even curry did playing against monta ellis on a below 500 warriors team whereas kobe was shooting that much alongside shaq
Spurs legend Tiago Splitter is now an NBA head coach
>>151631478>Nobody is saying that about Cooper
Weren't the Spurs winning by 30 earlier? How did this game get close?
>>151630725capo don't get arrested,only minions
>>151630252>gains 5kg of fat while losing 5kg of muscle during rehab
>>151631481
>>151631726a bunch of turnovers and three pointers
>>151631633So Carter Bryant has GOAT potential right? He's only played 2 games, so it's unreasonable to assume he will be in Wemby's shadow as a Spur.
Celtics are such a sad team to watch, that luxury cap raped them
>>151631838back to back games they doing these turnovers in the last few minutes
i'm excited to see the cool throwback wolves jerseys and court tonight
We keep almost winning games. Imagine if Jordi was allowed to coach an actual good team
>>151631481There was the quintessentially Canadian Sim Bhullar who probably wouldn't have grown to a freakishly huge size if he was born and lived in India
How does every team have some god rook but the nets who had 5 first round picks theryre all dog shit
>>151631805>the real Redeem Team
Jokic is fat as fuck this season. He doesn't care about winning. Awful leader.
>"that's right goys keep gettin those 30 point games. they're starting to forget this game is fake as shit">"but boss don't you think they're going to nootice that every player with a 30+ point game has 9999999999999 FTA?>"lol no they won't nootice, they think only SGAY shoots a billion free throws every game"
Alright I've seen enough, trade Fox and start Harper right now
Claxton has turned into trash
>>151632100they seriously should though harper is legit and he'll only get better
Best player in the world and it's not close.Welcome to the Wemby era.
>>151631726>How did this game get close?40 by Cam Thomas
>>151626742>biyombo breaks his ankle while breaking his teammate's balls
Just woke up and saw Luka will be out fo a week. This sucks but I guess this is a good thing. If he was still on the Mavs I knew he would force himself to play.
>>151632100Who even wants Fox? Not even the Kings want him back.
>>151632275
>nets of all teams held wemby to sub 45% fg
>>151632253luka sat out over half his last season on the mavs retard
>>151632275Houston or Dallas would kill for a real pg
>>151632100>Harper, Castle, Fox>can make many different play and rotation around Wemby>can find the one who is in fire during the game>if one is injured, you still have two good PGThey should keep all of them.
>>151632323Rockets don't have any salary they can send back unless they trade players that are actually important to them.
>>151631638>that judging cooper and Kobe off their first games is, when Kobe didnt even get to fucking start when he entered the leagueOkay. Then let's compare the numbers to their first 2 starts when they got full minutes>Kobe balled the fuck out as soon as he got any minutes whatsoeverAfter Kobe's first 2 starts averaged>15.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.0 assistsAfter Cooper's first 2 starts averaged>14 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 3.0 assistsI'm trying hard to be polite here. Does one player really stand out more than the other here? My point remains: nobody can make that assessment after only playing 2 games in the season. Cooper and Wemby could be the greatest dynamic duo ever: the potential is there. But (You) claim there is no potential after only seeing 2 games in a season...
>>151632424you have to trade stuff to get stuff. That'll be Smith Jr, Sheppard, filler+draft picks
>>151632327>manix
>>151632327I said it before, Jordi has him figured out.
>cam thomas unironically didn't have a single suitor in free agency
>>151632514>ykr Scoot Henderson
Lakers have shown more love and concern for Luka than the Mavs ever did and he hasn't been there a full season
>>151632573we'll see. i hope so, because wemby is the opposite of inspirational.
>>151632667Retard.
>>151632334Yeah and that was the result of him forced himself to keep playing even when injured the previous season. Minor injury like finger won't stop him from playing before.
See you in the WCF WembGOD
>>151632742Fuck off Nico
>>151632028I found their perfect soulmate

This demonic organisation must burn down to the ground
>>151633490He's probably never played chess in his life.
Reminder Anthony Davis texted the group chat after the lakeshits traded him and LeXing answered with "wtf" as if he didn't know his own Klutch mafia was shipping him off to Dallas.

someone gonna get injured after this long ass break
>>151633777>without Nico's stupid ass you would either be in Luka's team or Wemby's team>now you have to deal with weak ass AD and Nico every dayI can't blame him.
>>151633531I can't quite put my finger on it, but something tells me Jaylen Brown isn't a very good chess player.Like, I can't quite put my finger on it, but when I look at, say, Nikola Jokic, I think he's probably a much better chess player than Jaylen Brown.I can't quite put my finger on why.
>>151634060I think I agree with you, but for the life of me I couldn't tell you why. Guess we'll never know.
>>151634060jokic is just more of a lunch pail kind of guy
Let's go Pistons!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCCyoocDxBA
>>151628167It's a finger sprain, lil nigga. No point in playing through injuries already. The Lakers are playing it safe.
>>151634060quinten post is the nba chess champion. jaylen brown didn't even show up, because he only joined chess club to make himself look smart.
My hornies are playing soon :)
>>151634847:D
>>151634670KEK
Man people seriously drop 30 points like its nothing now. No joke. Im smart enough to have always understood that there is no such thing as a "30 point scorer" per thinking basketball. But still, jesus its astonishing. How insane must the pace of the game be right now? Late 60s Early 70s tier?
>>151634986>per thinking basketballYou are so fucking gay nigga lol
>>151634986Faster tempo and memechucking is what's causing the inflation. Almost everyone is an elite shooter these days. It's not just "muh defense" like boomers like to say.
>>151634986Pace hasn't changed much in the last decades. Efficiency has.
It looks like it's going to be a long season for inceltic
>>151635196>Efficiency has.Youre an actual retard. You can go look at it yourself. Not babysitting your retarded ass.
>>151635196Yes it has. Check out Charles Barkley posting niggas up for 20 seconds every possession.
Damn these niggas Derrick White and Pritchard really fucking suck when theyre expected to take more than 12 shots lmao.Can't believe I have to admit that Tatum must have actually provided extra spacing for them.
>>151635286>>151635260Pace has gone up from somewhat over 90 possessions per game to around 100. Offensive rating increased by more.
>>151634986everyone's scoring 30 to distract you from the gambling scandal
>>151635388*From the 2000s to now
Celtics need to sign Bol Bol
>>151635345We love to dunk on Gaytum but he's legit the Celtics best player. Brown is too inconsistent.
celtics need a fucking center
>>151635140>It's not just "muh defense"Then why do these shitters numbers all drop during the playoffs? Guys like Luka, SGA, and Joki will get theirs in the playoffs. But shitters like ANT and Durant (modern day version), ain't getting their 30 as frequently. Let me answer it for you. DEFENSE you dumb shit. So yeah, the reason why people are scoring more is because the defense sucks not efficency or more talent, than yesteryear, because unlike zoomers like to say, these niggas ain't as talented
>>151635388Yes, that's what I said.
Will Bombston ever change their shot chucking system?
>>151635345Also without a real point guard, Tatum lead the team in assists, setting up Pritch and White when people double teamed him
>>151635140No it's 100 percent MUH DEFENSE plus officiating changes and completely deemphasizing rebounding and interior play.
>>151635508well what the FUCK is the problem then
>>151635492You think they used to play playoff defense for 82 games back in the day?
>>151635537They don't have anyone who can get paint touches. Chucking is their only way to score.
5 posters from here could beat this celtics starting 5
>>151635537Their coach doesn't understand basketball, he just quotes movies and tries to fist fight his players.
>>151635565I never said efficiency hasn't gone up. I just said pace has gone up as well, as you pointed out in your last post. 10 extra possesions isn't nothing.
Who is the Raptors' best player?
>>151635697All good, Slovenian bro. Go Luka.
>>151635708Dick
>>151635592No. But the level of handchecking they allow in today's playoffs is the same level of hand checking that was allowed back in the day during the playoffs. We aren't going to see 135 point games in modern day playoffs EVER, but we will see a shit ton of them in the reg season.
>>151635492>Let me answer it for you. DEFENSE you dumb shit. Foul leniency, isn't defense. Defense was at its all time league high in the 60s with Bill Russel leading the back and that was back when people actually understand that the unique appeal, in a retarded backwards subhuman america where violence was reveled in and glorified. A no contact sport, valued, finesse, and skill over physicality and contact. You can go watch an old 60s wilt chamberlain game where they said this. You couldnt TOUCH the guy or it was a foul.The current league is just retarded and doesnt know how to fairly encourage defense, without rewarding foul baiting, so that even when dudes have their hands up, aslong as the offensive player bumps into them its still a foul.Pace was also insane back then though. Forgot why, had something to do with the shot clock i think.
>>151635742No problem, Kyodai :)
>>151635492There's also way more noncompetitive blowouts in the playoffs because MUH EFISHANSEE zoomerball teams get ran off the court when shots don't fall at the exact rate they need them to because they have no idea of how to play any other way. Go watch how much of a fucking war the 2010 Finals was compared these soft-ass playoff series now where players stop chasing the ball and just start chucking once they get in a few possession hole.
>>151635779>>Pace was also insane back then though. Forgot whyThey were all coked up.
>>151635776Playoffs still have higher scoring these days though, no? What are the numbers?
pritch needs junkyard dawg training from McConnell and he'd be elite
>>151635873TJ can get to anywhere on the court, he's got burst and handles. Pritchard is like a small, white version of Eric Gordon.
>>151635779You can't just reference 60s defensive rules without referencing 60s offensive rules. Most critically, that there was no side palming the basketball. Not touching a guy may be a feasible ask when the dribbler is not allowed to side palm the ball. Side palming increases the offensive players' range of movement exponentially. Not being able to touch a guy side palming the ball would make defense impossible.
Y'all think Lakers and Luka are playing things too safe now? Finger sprain is nothing for him. Dallas Luka would play through a broken wrist if he could.
>>151635708tonight its cooper flagg
Tatum's gravity and ball handling really made these guys look better.
>>151635936>Not touching a guy may be a feasible ask when the dribbler is not allowed to side palm the ball. Side palming increases the offensive players' range of movement exponentiallyYeah. Please tell me how much this would have mattered if Wilt was allowed (and allowed himself) to play like Shaq. Please enlighten me.
>>151635870Yeah but back in the day they went from hand checking in the rgeular season to being able to hug a nigga and choke him out in the playoffs. Today, there is huge elevation in what the defense can get away in the playoffs versus the regular season, just like back then. But the starting baseline to the ending elevation of defense that is allowed in today's game, is not on the same spectrum as the early 2000s Pistons. Look at LeBron's first Cleveland years. The Pistons, Wizards, and the Spurs *in the finals), were just punching him, lol.
>>151635979They are playing the Kings so Reaves is enough.
>>151635979It's a good thing desu
>151636077>151635936Btw im not saying I disagree with you, for example. I think the spin move is one of the cheapest "I dont have to dribble or pass the ball" moves in the modern nba. But my point is, 60s defense was also simply just elite because no spacing, and bigs dominated. Not like a guy like Jerry West couldnt exist in the NBA and tourch teams, but he couldn't be allowed to carry
>>151636065He's never been the offensive mastermind Luka is but his 2 way flexibilty kind off made up for it in the finals. If Luka's offense and playmaking isn't humming he's kind of been a liability. His D is looking much better this year though. Since he's in better shape and actually tries.
Refs trying anything to give this game to Boston.
FUCK THE KNICKS
>>151636105Idk. The defense and offense from the roleplayers really need to show up. Smart better have a good game. And Ayton has to look like the second half of the Wolves game. Rui too.
>>151636229I don't know how these frauds manage trick people every year, kek.
Detroit needs to hire a good coach.
i'm going to watch a bit of the knicks @ the heat in waiting for the timberwolves game. let's go wolves
The Cavs are the most boring good team to watch I've ever seen.
>>151636277What happened to Rudy? Nigga looks washed af.
celtics cant board for shit lmfao
>>151636329Don't they have literally 0 centers?
>>1516363490 good ones
>>151636349Their starting center was their 4th string last year.
>>151636378Grim. Why'd big Al bail on them?
Ausar is a monster
nice missed goal tend
>>151636412Because he's 40 years old and he's not about to waste one of his few remaining NBA years losing 60 games.
Happy to see the Pistons not totally suck again. Such a soulful franchise.
Crazy that the entire pistons team can be this inefficient and the game is still close/mostly in their lead
>>151636448So he went to the incredibly stacke west to play with a bunch of uncs? Curry and Jimmy aren't going to stay healthy. Look at last year's playoffs.
brown wtf was that
>>151636329>"Find five guys that will rebound": Joe MazzullaHe knows.
>>151636293i dont know, lots of wolves have looked pretty bad so far. they just need 2 more weeks
Cavs dance girls have some brap hogs.
Im watching Cavs and bucks. Wanna see if Giannis can carry this team to a top seed
This Pistons team hustles so much, you love to see it.
>>151636494He should've gone to Denver but GSW paid him more than the minimum.
>>151636540Dumb move. Maybe he just wants to retire in San Fran.
wemby needs to be nerfed
Man idky but I always hate listening to announcers. I hate when they affirm a foul call that was clearly retarded.
>>151636577he had a blood clot in his shoulder
Ben Simmons would probably be a better rebounding big than any of the bench bigs on the CelticsAnd he can pass and defend
Who gets Ring #2 first?>Jokic>GIannis>SGA
Lonzo is back.
>>151636628Jokic SGay (until the cap rapes them god willing)BaglessIn that order
the leltics LOST TO THE PISTONS?!?!?!
I really hope Luka gets at least one. He's too great not to. Hope the Dodgers owner cleans house after he buys the Lakers and builds a good team around him before he turns 30.
Wild that the Heat got Norman Powell for free.
Thank God LeDiddy is gone after this year.
>>151636731I remember Heatskitz bragging about how they're gonna get Luka after DallASS kept stinking it up.
>>151636628Jokic will retire with one pity ring.Shai will retire with 4+
Giannis will pull a Kareem and team up with Luka.
>>151636781100%. He's giving off really shady vibes since Luka got traded. If those 2 don't win at least one then idk what will.
ware has been so shit
>>151636781We don't need him blud, we saw what he did to Dame
>>151636825Dame isn't Luka
>0-3it just keeps getting worse
>>151636849Luka needs a strong second option under him not a 1B
I hope the Celtics crowd starts hurling N-bombs at their players soon. The drama would be funny.
Guys, we're a community of bros. We should be lifting each other up. I don't think it's right that some of you are kicking inceltic while he's down.
Spurs bros how we feeling? How'd we manage to get ROTY of the year three times in a row, are other teams retarded?
>>151626452damn was hoping he'd get another 40piece
>>151634986Its literally just free throws. Like every teams leading scorer is averaging 10+ FTAs a game these first few games.
first for my bullies going 82-0
>>151636891Reaves is about to get 30-35 mill. They habe Luka at a discount. Jannice can come here to form the big 3 and lower his usage while still averaging 20-25. Easy threepeat.
Okay we get it >>151636774One of these (perhaps 2) has happened to this leaf poster:A: His only beloved gf left him for a much taller, better looking, more mentally stable white manB: He's never had a gf and he blames the white chads for "stealing them all"C: His parents got a divorce because his own Indian mom cheated with a white chad, and now they're married and he has to cope everyday knowing his stepfather is a successful, much taller than him white chad
>>151637039It's both b and c anon
>>151637028Luka is good enough to 3peat as the first option without Giannis is my point, assuming he has an elite team that's build around him. I don't want another superstar next to him. Maybe a B list superstar, but someone like Lauri is perfect for the role
>>151637098Yeah, but Lauri is getting the same money as Luka right now sith his insane contract. He's sadly going to rot away in Utah.
>>151636781Magic got drafted once Kareem was already a laker frauding on another team not even winning anything just like the 70s
cavs 3pt defense is so suspect
>>151637128For what it's worth, the FO is trying to find a way to fit Luka, a max contract 2nd option and AR on the team at the same time. We'll see if it pans out
>>151636990Yeah, you're right. I just remembered that KD frauded his way to 37 points with 16 freethrows, and this also explains how Jaylen Brown had so much (albeit he was fairly efficient) which is who exactly my point regarding 30 point games was in response to.Damn NBA needs to fix their shit. They are frauding so hard with these foul calls.
Lakers need to get rid of dead weight like Dalton, Vando, Maxi and Gabe and get players like Keon Eliss and Wiggins. They could make some noise with just that.
Luka played 2 games with this shitty ass team and said fuck this im done.And ADiposity got dogwalked by wemby and the wizards
>>151636959Well, if you told me inceltic was drowningI would not lend a handI've seen his face before my friendBut I don't know if he knows who I amWell, I was there and I saw what he didI saw it with my own two eyesSo fuck inceltic
>>151637214Its that high 5 shit Kerr cried for, and the new driving foul making defense impossible. Either Silver is gonna have to loosen the whistle half way through the season like he did in 2024 after Luka scored 70, or like a hundred players are gonna reach FTA highs this season.
>>151637314Fuck wrong person kek
Greece is going schizo on us
I never hated Inceltic but I did hate him (and probably Heat too) VPNing to my flag to false flag kek. Never watching shot chuckin' Celtics though
>>151637331>Its that high 5 shit Kerr cried forNah bro. Jaylen Brown and Shai are not getting upwards of 15 plus free throws for that hand shit. Thats a good foul change. The foul baiting and whatever driving foul youre alluding to, if its what i think it is. Is the problem
>>151637379Problem with borjng schizos like Inceltic and Blunderskutz is that they're literally incapable of dropping their cookie cutter butthurt ritualposting. It's like watching bunch of bots. That's why I like Ireshart. He's sometimes drop the act and engage in chill talk/banter.
>>151637039I'm white, you idiot. I shared a basketball opinion. OKC is set up to win multiple rings. Jokic is already looking fat and doesn't have the drive or team situation to win chips.
LeBron does not want to pay for Damon Jones' legal fees out of pocket, so he told Luka to have a seat.
>>151637431This is exactly why I keep clowning leaf jeet. Bro can't go a single thread without mentioning a certain fat serb it's pretty insane
>>151637431Jesus, I completely mistyped the grammar in this post. Oh well.
>>151637484Yeah, him too. But I'm pretty sure he's just a holdover from the Inceltic discord. He just jumped on SGAy to ragebait.
>>151637484You realize there's like 20 leaf posters? We're not all one person, idiot. Who exactly is leafjeet?
>>151637591No one said all leafs are leafjeet.
>>151637591There's probably only two, maybe three of you. But you're the one who posts about him the most. Igloojeet doesn't spam about it every day at least
I miss Raptors poster :(
>>151637605Lol, I'm not even a regular poster, and in your schizo mind I am THE infamous leafjeet that you retards never shut up about.
>>151637659I'm not a schizo. Just a retired shitposter.
>>151637659leafjeet confirmed
>>151630252Fuck Adam Silver
>>151637628I responded to one question posed by another anon and that's spamming about Jokic? You need to be medicated.
>>151637659It says more about you that everyone thinks you and the curcuck are the same poster thoughever
>>151637731The curryfag is the only identifiable and unique leaf poster.
michael jordan is a white man
go wuffs
>>151637750It's pretty funny that a canadian poster simps for a nigga named CURRY, ngl
Heat are a contender if they attract a star. Given they're an attractive market and have a good supporting cast I wouldn't be surprised if they get one in 2027
My wolves are playing the pacers tonight, a team they struggle with mightily. let's go wolves
>>151637843No one wants to deal with Pat anymore after the Jimmy drama.
>>151637659Respectfully, if you don't want to get caught in the crossfire, put a name as an identifier (like my current comment) so that we know whether it's you or someone else. Because a lot (although not all) of your fellow leaves here are notorious for being neurotic and having random temper outbursts
KAT is such a cuck
I never thought id say this. But I actually like Giannis' game. Its simple, but unselfish, he doesnt foul bait. He has clear flaws he tries to account for. Actually tries to, and is devent at playmaking and take advantage of double teams unlike bums like KD. Good defense. Clear number 1 option type of player, all around solid. Makes tough shots at the rims. I usually dont like big guys because they always take the easiest shots and abuse their physical blessedness. And so I didnt to like Giannis' game but I do.
>>151637905He nice to see he has a middy now. His free throws are still Shaw-tier though.
DominAYTON finna go off today
AR15 legacy game incoming?
>>151637457If you're white, I apologize. Post your hand to prove it leaf.
>>151637969He looked pretty good in that Q3 so hopefully that's a good sign
It's pretty apparent that Luka just has a fragile and injury-prone body. It's probably partly genetic and partly from years of neglect and abuse. I doubt he will ever play 65 games again, which means no more All-NBA or MVP. Quite sad.
>>151638027It's a jammed finger lol
Got a trans flag on my wall. Right above my communist flag.
>>151638010They just need to give him touchess or he zones out. Luka and Reaves figured it out after that awful first game. I wish he was more like Lively. Literally the perfect big for Luka he was.
>>151637998No. I'm not going to waste my time and energy to "prove I'm white" to some random retard on the Internet. I don't care that much. You can go on thinking I'm brown if you want.
>>151637039>>151638027It's definitely both B and C lmao
>>151638054right next to ur XXXL size condoms right?
>>151638134Are you trolling or are you this retarded
>>151638050And a "leg contusion", the exact same thing that kept him out for weeks with the Mavs last season.
>>151638134Contusion is literally just a bruise. Mavs tried to cover up his calf strain with bs medical reports.
>>151638179The guy has chronic issues with his lower body. That's only going to get worse as he ages.
Ant still looks buck broken from that Lakers game
>>151631633You are retarded. You should kill yourself. Your team fumbled Luka and will literally not win a chip until they're contracted.
