>awww shit they investigating the entire league. Better fake an injury
>>151684951>sad al horford noises
>Game ended with both teams under 100 pointsThis has been a pretty low scoring, low free throw gane in general. Most balanced game, the entire first two weeks so far?Makes me wonder how the warriors would do against a much faster paced team (and also wonder whether thats why they lost to Portland, because theyre faster paced)
So how much did they pay MJ for these 5 minute interviews lmao
Al horford completely ass this game step up unc
>>151684968MJ did it to boost his ego. That's worth more to him than money
>>151684968It was 1 interview. They spllit it apart and will air a part of every week.
>>151684968and why do his eyes look like that
>>151684975stfu man, dont disrespect the goat like dat
>>151684968I saw he got paid more than Brady on Fox.I think it's 40 mil a year or some shit. But it's worth every penny.
>>151684975i didnt see the interview but if its his eyes being red then the same shit happened to my dad, i think we just get red eyes when we old
Hey make sure you use the Wemby thread after this one ends so we don't get another Pistol Pete fag thread
>>151684975That's what alcohol and tobacco do to you. He has early jaundice
>>151684989based
>only one player scored more than 20 points in warriors vs clippers>and it was literally 21 points>either both of these teams are elite defenses, or both of them suck offensively, one team, just sucks much 23 points more
>>151684989It will get archived after some time of inactivity. We just need someone to look out when it hits 480 comments because petefag likes to create early
how do you fix kings
>>151684989I'm tired of pistol pete. A sentence I never thought I would type.
>>151685014nuclear weapons
>>151685013I mean if you retards would just ignore his threads it wouldn't be an issue
is the pistol pete poster the most jobless poster in /nba/?
>>151685033Yeah him and that one jeet who sucks off Curry. Used to be Bulgaria and Ireshit but they got banned
>>151684975reminds of my daddont smoke so much
>>151685014Who's the biggest lover Zach Lavine or LaMelo Ball?
>>151685031Nigga, please. If you go back and check previous threads, i always make sure to stick around in the old thread until it hits 500 even after Petefag posted his own thread at 480. And it's not like anyone will jump ship even if i create a new one after his
if it was possible to defeat pete then it would have been done by now, the dude is unstoppable
Crappers? Soft
>>151685056What I'm saying is start another one and have everyone ignore petefag's threads
Kawhi looks incredibly washed
>>151685064>And it's not like anyone will jump ship even if i create a new one after hisYes, that's what i'm saying
>>151685058I like the idea of respecting the old heads and history of the game. But switch it up. Tiny Archibald, Bill Walton, George Meiken, Vinnie Johnson, idc, but someone else from time to time. Damn.
>>151685065Did anything ever come out of the illegal under the table money he was getting?
>>151685085it was a nothing burger and swiftly swept under the rug, lets not dig up old shit
>>151685085Silver is still "investigating"
Man i thought Giannis was going to mentally check out this season but hes been the mvp so far
>>151685085Silver is stalling and hoping people forget about it like with Rozier

>>151685124It's even funnier when they called a travel on his post spin move and not this
>>151685139just spin the ball on your palm and walk around like you own the place
>>151685120he seems fucking crazy from his online presence

>>151685150Heh, yeah, this one
>>151685161>modern day pistol pete
>>151685103Heres the tricky thing. I unironically think Currgoat is better than Giannis at creating space and opportunities for his teammates.But I think Giannis despite his flaws (no midrange, poor free throw shooter) Is equal to curry right now in terms of impact on team because of his downhill pressure. Of all the stars ive watched right now, he and curry provide the most impact to their teammates in terms of making them better than they are. Jokic has had two teammates that have dropped 40 and 50 in two different games. One is a catch and shooter/lob threat, and the other is a mostly iso kobe wannabe. I have zero idea why Jokic gets so much credit for these guys playing well offensively. Maybe because the rest of his teammates are kinda just...there. Standing around? Maybe if youre delusional enough you can argue that Jimmy Butlers 20 a game is equivalent to having Aaron Gordan and Jamal Murray?Back to Currgoat and Gianngoat. The biggest flaw with curry is that, when his teammates arent hitting, his impact falls off hard. It doesnt even matter whether hes being efficient, he was efficient and getting downhill in that portland game. And had 35 in like 27 minutes, I just think something about being able to go 70% from the field on mostly rim shots is difficult to match. I wonder if its a volume thing. You can simply take more shots at the rim rather than 3s, because 3s end the possession so fast if you miss, whereas 2s have a chance for a put back or offensive rebound or foul, or and one, theres fundamentally more opportunities for points in the range of 2 printers near the rim.These have been my thougths trying to think about how Giannis made that Cleveland game so close, and yet how we got blown out by 30 with Curry going crazy 55% from the field and 50% from 3 against Portland
>>151685163>Oh no, his political opinions are different than mine Who cares? Is he fun to watch or not?
>>151685147It's actually not according to NBA rules. He can take as many steps as he wants as long as his dribble is still active. He gathers the ball when he has two hands on it. So if you count it, it's gather-1-2. That's a legal play according to NBA oddsmakers....I mean refs
>>151685163who is she in nba terms?
>>151685163what did you want to see?
>>151685185Bernie or Zohran maybe

>>151685183MPJ
>>151685181>He gathers the ball when he has two hands on it.you know the rules are public, right? you don't gotta lie. he took 4 steps after the gather, it's a travel, the refs suck, the end.
>>151685201wtf? i like kanipple now
>>151685209Literally says Section III b. 1. Puts two hands on the ballThanks for proving my point champ. You can take as many steps as you want until you gather the ball. They don't call it like the old rules from pre 2012. How do you think a bum like James Larden kept drawing so many fouls
JJJ soft as hell
>>151685230>any one of the followingdidn't do too well on the reading tests did ya?

>>151685039>Bulgaria and Ireshitthe bill and wilt of this genny... rip to dem....
Will there ever be another player that can match Michael Jordan's career? Just look at his stats as a rookie: he scored 37 points to beat the Bucks in only his 3rd game as a rookie. By his 9th game, he scores 45 points to beat the spurs. Unreal.

>>151685124This is perfectly legal as per the NBA rulebook, he is just gaming it like Prime HarGoat, again dont get mad at the player exploiting the rules get mad at the rules that let him do it. his hand was on the side of the ball as it was spinning and not under so not a carry and he can take as many steps as he wants until it stops and has to grab da ball
kings got fucked over by refball 3 games in a row

>>151685365No.The players would have to be broke,(,financially) again. Too much is given upon arrival now.A demon like Jordan can only exist when teams are flying coach and staying at run down roadside motels. Greatness is only forged in deplorable conditions.
>>151685498heat win if Jaime Jaquez keeps shooting 70% all season.

Flagg losing the ROTY to a 3rd pick wearing 77 would be kino
>>151685946I'm so sad VJ is on the sixers.He's my favorite rookie this year but I fuckin hate the sixers and wanna see them lose so its conflicting when I want VJ to succeed
vj is great but his efficiency will definitely not hold up. I think itll end up between harper and flagg still
>>151686033coward was the best player in the draft.
Unc off box score had me thinking I woke up back in the Bush administration
>>151686033>vj is great but his efficiency will definitely not hold upWhat makes you think this?
Is anything gonna happen to the NBA with the FBI investigation?
>>151686114nah
>>151685163Doesnt he have a black qveen gf?
>>151686067he is great tbf but idk if his playstyle is too limited to be a roty winner, despite doing it really well already>>151686110his shooting numbers from high school and college were good (33-35%) but not 40% good, its unlikely that hes actually developed that much over the summer so itll probably regress. And his rim finishing was much worse at college than it has been in the nba so far. He is taking easier shots because he isnt the primary guy anymore, but leaps this big are unbelievable if they stick (60% rim finisher in college but shooting 78% so far in nba)
>>151686114No. It's over. Not for guys like Chauncey Billups. He has many new and terrible experiences that await him.But for the NBA the worst has passed.
>>151685525https://streamable.com/j1ifdoHerro sisters...
>>151685163MTG is cute.
>>151686151>reasons why VJ's numbers will sink.I don't have a belief on it one way or another. But I appreciate you brought facts and history to the table to support your hypothesis.You are based
>>151686156billups will just claim he didn't know shit and was just doing an appearance job and he'll get off with zero time.
>>151684907an someone explain the hype over Wemby to me? I mean, I’m not blind — I’ve seen him in action — but I still don’t understand why the vast majority seem to believe he’s going to “end the debate” between Jordan and LeBron. Some people are already saying he’s better than Jordan ever was, and I just don’t see it.All I see is a very tall player who, at best, will end up like Ralph Sampson. It’s rare to see such a tall, talented player, but I think his career will be cut short. He’s already prone to injuries at a very young age, yet people are acting as if he’s going to play as long as Jordan did.Furthermore, fans are acting like his basketball IQ is already on Jokic’s level or that his handles surpass Kyrie’s. Some are even saying he’s going to destroy all of Wilt’s stats.Now, don’t get me wrong — I see the talent. I’m not blind. And he’s likely going to break some insane record in the blocking department. But it’s just the beginning of the season, and the media are already claiming he’s going to take Jordan’s throne?
>>151686171what about the X-ray goggles though
Still lots of time for the knicks to trade KAT and hire a new coach
>>151686208Sounds made up, and they'd have to prove he ever used such a thing.
>>151686171That's not how federal indictments work.The only people I've seen get out federal indictments are people who tried to fuck over Donald Trump and Donald Trump himself. You can't just tell the judge, "sorry your honor, I didn't know "And you can't rich or celebrity your way out of them either. Federal prosecutors have like a 99 percent conviction rate. You could be a billionaire like SBF, or a celebrity like P Diddy, it don't matter, your ass is grass. You will be going to prison if the FBI comes after you.Ask Aunt Becky from full house
>>151686198Just say that you dont know ball lilbro
>>151686238Give me an argument. Why is he already better than Jordan or LeBron? How is he not injury-prone? Stop trying to guess what’s in my head — justify the hype with logical arguments
>>151686229>Federal prosecutors have like a 99 percent conviction rate.90% of people plead guilty because they can't afford a trial. The rest of them 80% got dismissed, which is the case with trump.
>>151686198I don't know about the Jordan throne thing. That's too early to say. But if he keeps up the level of play he'll definitely be the undisputed best player in the league by season's end. (he might already be that).Dude if you need to be told why Wemby is a basketball God, t'est vraiment con
>>151686274> More physically gifted> Better defender> Better ball handler> Better shooterAnd his only injury was literally a bloothcloth, that is liie saying that someone who gets cancer is injuryprone.
>>151686306>90% of people plead guilty because they can't afford a trialSounds like an Ai education. I follow the DOJ like people in this thread follow the NBA. The pressure and threats those niggas press on you is so fucking intense, pleading guilty is often your best option. They. ALWAYS gave indisputable evidence of your crime. After they show you the evidence, they then tell you they will bury you under the prison if you dare try to defend yourself. If they say in the indictment that Billups is using x-ray glasses and that he's got texts talking about rigging, they have the fucking evidence. Just the other day, I saw them talking about how they were looking for the suspect for a certain crime and one of the identifiers was his shoes. They were like "only 25,000 pairs of these nikes were sold in the world "And the nikes were bargain clearance rack nikes These guys go so deep they know how many other people in the world are wearing your cheap ass nikes bro. They collect amazing evidence. This is why people plead.Because they are caught dead to rights.
>>151686409Pic of the shoes the FBI released just to prove I didn't make it up
>>151686409You claimed they're always right but diddy beat every serious charge they brought on him, kidnapping, racketeering, arson. They didn't even bother trying to stick drug charges or rape on him, he already beat a murder charge 20 years ago. Trying to ruin the guys life over some bullshit prostitution.
>>151686469I'm sure everyday Diddy is in prison, he's thinking, "I won. What a wonderful life I have. I had to spend millions of dollars in lawyers. So wonderful. I have four years in a cement 5 by 5 box. This is total victory. The world saw me beating a woman silly. People know every detail about my sex life. I will never be able to host another Hollywood party. I eat prison food everyday. I can't stop winning. "
>>151686496He'll get in a couple years and make his largest album ever, meanwhile the state spent an ungodly amount of money and a trillion man hours for nothing. Yeah he does think he won when they tried to put him away for life.
>>151686508>meanwhile the state spent an ungodly amount of money and a trillion man hours for nothingThe thing is, that's not how the calculus actually works. The state is not hiring lawyers by the hour. Government resources are already paid for, but defendants are spending $1000 hourly to their lawyers.
Run and dunk man vs. Greatest shooting big of all time
>>151686508Dude, 4 years in prison sucks.My point Iis, if the FBI shows up with an indictment you're going to prison. Period. Now, for you, spending 4 years in prison may be a great way of spending time in this short amount of time we allotted on this earth, but for everyone else in the world, that sucks. Is 4 years better than 20 years? Sure. But is 4 years in prison better than 0 years. I would say no. And if the FBI shows up , it's super rare to get a 0 time in prison outcome.Again, my point is very simple.FBI indicts = time in prison.Billups is going to prison.
>>151686532At least he makes up for it with his awesome defense
>>151686322>undisputed best player in the league by season's end. (he might already be that).Again, your French insult is cute, but where’s the argument? Where’s your receipt? Saying someone is dumb for not “seeing” or “believing” in something isn’t a logical argument, is it? For instance, you’re saying that he could be the “undisputed best player in the league by season’s end (he might already be that).” Again, where’s the proof?So far, you have SGA, Maxey, Giannis, Lauri, Brunson, Mitchell, and Reaves — all of whom have more points than Wemby. Granted, many of these guys aren’t exceptional freaks of nature, but stats don’t lie.Then, when you look at assists, Wemby isn’t even in the top 40. As for rebounds, you have Jokic at #1 with an average of 15.3, followed by Sabonis at 14.7, Giannis at 14.0, and then Wemby at 13.8. Actually, Wemby is ranked #2 for defensive rebounds.And of course, there are blocks — that’s where Wemby truly shines, being the clear #1 with an average of 4.8. But to go from having dominant block stats (which you’d expect from a player his size) to claiming he’s going to be better than Jordan? I don’t see it. And asking me to “believe” or “see” isn’t an argument. Neither are personal insults.
don't bully KAT
so are y'all black or what
>>151686575I am white
>>151686532The Knicks without Thibs aren't going anywhere. Yeah, yeah, Thibs made them play a lot of minutes But Thibs style got them to the ECF and one game short of the ECF the previous year.Mike Brown is an idiot and a loser. Now the Knicks will suck again.
>>151686385Again, you’re making claims about him without providing any evidence — exactly like the media hype machine is doing right now. Wemby missed 44% of the games during the 2024–2025 NBA regular season. You’re expecting a guy that tall to be physically durable for the next decade, but history shows that, at best, talented and very tall players end up like Ralph Sampson.Better shooter than who, exactly? Again, look at the stats — Wemby ranks 8th in points and isn’t even in the top 40 for assists.
>>151686601he has a 41 per, that's tied with giannis, and giannis isn't going to keep up a 70/57 shooting split.
>>151686564I don't give a fuck about the box score. I've watched him play The box score does not show how many shots he's altered and how many bad shots he forces the other team to take by his pure presence on the court. This is so critical. Teams get disheartened playing against him.Watch the game.You can see so much indecision on the opposing team about what they should do or where they can get a shot off. He closes from the hoop to the three point line like no defender I've ever seen.Guys fucking panic when he closes. They either shoot a horrible arching shot to avoid it getting blocked or they make a panic pass. Oh yeah, it also gets swatted too. The dude is swatting three point shots on attempts that begin while he's in the paint. Like holy fuck. Then in offense. Holy shit.He can score whenever he want6, with one, two steps, dunk.The alley oop to him is unguardable. Man, I could go on and on about how great he is and how superior he is to every player.
>>151686601So you just dont know ball. Got it
Giannis has been an MVP level guy forever. He’s going for his 8th consecutive All-NBA 1st team. There’s really not that many guys who have hit that
