>>151742169Yes but that has no affect on my meal.
>>151741346>SGA is the MVP & a champion because he's effective going both ways. Youre a fucking retard. Denver didnt win the 2023 championship because both Jamal Murray and Jokic could "go both ways" you fucking faggot. Im not homophobic, im just calling you a faggot for not only making a gay ass gay double entendre, but also to insult you generally for being fucking retarded.>Lavine will never sniff a finals because he isn't.You have absolutely zero fucking idea how offensively limited Klay is because he played alongside the greatest shooter ever. I seriously encourage you retards to type in "basketball reference" in google. type in "klay thompson" in the search bar. lress enter then scroll down to "shooting" and then go check "3p FGA assisted" and see how many of Klays shots were assisted.I hate the talk about defense, because defense is simultaneously the most impossible type of impact to quantify, as evidenced by the fact that whenever it suggests jokic or curry are positive defenders, people freak the fuck out, but simultaneously the one aspect of the game people want to force insane attention and credit to when they have no actual logical basis for how good it is.When I use eye test to judge defense, I talk about being smart on defense, because its a team game and the most "high skill" aspect of defense with the most "possible" impact in the sense that even if a player is able to rack up 10 steals or blocks, there are so many possessions over the course of a game that such singular impact can easily be overshadowed. Its partly why Magic Johnson was able to get away with like a dozen turnovers every game and still anchor a top offense than won championships.But I never use the eye test to justify defensive impact, just whether a player can contribute positively or negatively to team defense. For example, Kuminga can put all the effort and leverage his size on defense but hes a dumb defensive player so its not a positive.

Ultimately my point is. Klays defense isnt high impact nor is it even the reason the warriors won shit. If you bring up the fact that the warriors won so much with Curry as their weakest defender, or that Jokic won a finals with both him and Murray being weak defenders you'll hear retards suddenly bring up "BUT THEY WERE SURROUNDED WITH ELITE DEFENSES" but are so retarded that they dont realize thats a post hoc rationalization. Minnesota is surrounded with elite defensive talent almost everywhere on the court, even when they had to hide kat they were. But the game is more complicated than that because defensive impact is hard to determine, and offense simply has more avenues to impact.Ultimately my point is. On a good team, with a complimentary playmaker. Lavine would get Klay tier talks and treatment where hes overrated to hell and back despite being one of the most one dimensional and team dependent players ever due to no dribble, and no passing. I dont think Klay could do what Lavine has done as a 1st option. I think Lavine could easily do what Klay has done as a 2nd and 3rd.

>>151742427>>151742192I don't disagree that Lavine would be better regarded if he played alongside an elite point guard. I do question if he would be a solid defender, if slotted into the high-end 3&D role that Klay had in Golden State.

>>151743221>>151743292The game was just so bad. Tell anybody who conjures up narratives about "back in my day we could cheat defense and handcheck in the sport that was literally created as a no contact sport now because we have retarded subhuman refs!" and i dare them to tell me theres no handchecking in modern nba. Bucks also just could not defend well this game. So much retarded scrambling on switches retards playing in Westbrooks face, letting him just do the most basic crossover and drive, to put the defense in scramble when you can just play away from him and let him shoot the retarded midrangers he thinks hes good at.They obviously couldnt stop Zach Lavine but im not surprised about that. What I am surprised about is how Deretard and Westbrick could brick so many shots and still win this game. Sabonid dominated offensive rebounds and the lob threat in the paint was real. Just disappointing man.

Threadly reminder:Giddey-Buzelis is going to be the best 1-2 punch, PG-PF pairing since Stockton-Malone and no one is going to have an answer for it. Prove me wrong. You can’t.Furthermore, Giddey-to-the-Bullies is the new iteration of the Haliburton-to-the-Pacers deal, in which a young, budding superstar PG gets traded to a new team and a young, fun team emerges around him.I know you guys are peanut butter and jealous that you can’t pull off wearing a sweater around your neck like our Australian king, don’t have great hair like our Australian king, and don’t know ball, but it’s time you guys got over your insecurities.

My warriors legit just fucking suck offensively man. I dont know how this game is even close. Curry CANNOT be playing this inefficiently with a team this offensively shit.
pacies got their first win
>>151748279the 2nd string up 10 brings curry back in to brick and just be pure shit and lose I love steph but he didn't have it this game and it fucked the team

QUENTON JACKSON! Pacies first win
warriors destroyed by Quenton Jackson
Jabari is now rim protector tier
Jabari is probably gonna end up in all nba def team if he keeps this up
Warriors are such fucking frauds man holy shit im so sad. I cant believe my favourite player is on this team, and hes allowing himself to be just as shit as this team is. Fuark! I would have atleast preferred a Giannis type loss where he scores 26, on good efficiency with 8 assists but still loses because it was a close game (his teammates were actually all efficient too they just lost anyway over mistakes, and on the margins, also their defense sucked)
Damn the Celtics dancers are hella gay.
>>151748440>curry can’t memechuck his way to an nba finals and needs other stars around himgot it
Checked the box score, Jabari only has 3 blocks. He looked like he got at least 5 lol
>>151748363>and it fucked the teamYou might be genuinely and unironically retarded if you think they lost because of that second string. Are you fucking stupid? Everybody on the team bricked their shots in the seconf half WITH better spacing. It had nothing to do with Curry, all of Currys shots were tough or forced shots because his teammates provide little spacing due to how shit they all are at shooting. Look at that 3 point percentage again retard, subtract Curry's shots and theyre still below 30%The only reason they were up 10 in the first place, is because of fouls given up, and the pacers literally losing to offensive rebounds in a comical way. Once they fixed that issue Warriors stopped scored in a while anyway before Steph came off the bench.

>Ime didn’t let goon get his tripdubsad
Yeah, so please explain to me how these 3 misses in a row, and then finally the lucky put back by the FUCKING 7 FOOTER and then the personal fould was "Currys fault" right before he got subbed in. I already said what I said about Curry and criticized him for playing bad. But the niggas hes playing with suck. This game was close from beginning to end and the only reason the lead stretched to 10 was because. The Pacers defense is retarded and conceded a layup from Butler, a Dunk from Kuminga which is FUCKING RETARDED BECAUSE i have no fucking idea how teams havent figured out yet that HE CANT FUCKING SHOOT OUTSIDE OF 3 FEET, so just play back on him to force him to fucking shoot, because hes not a good enough passer to take advantage of that space either. FUCK so many garbage NBA players with blatant flaws get away with looking so good because they play like retards that just started playing basketball yesterday, and dont even get me started on the cheap ass cheating bullshit that is the spin move, which every poor ball handling big abuses.Also pacers missed 1 free throw, while giving up free throws of which jimmy didnt miss, so that also contributed to the lead.I have to explain this bullshit because retards dont realize that every Pacers volume scorer was efficient as fuck. They were not supposed to lose that game due to playing better, but the fact that their less volume shooters sucked (J Walker 2 of 9, R Dennis 1 of 7) brought their overall efficiency down, and even then they were still 1% more efficient than the warriors from the field. For the warriors its the opposite, where the low volume scorers make the field goal percentage look better than it is because they didnt take enough shots to even miss (Al Horford 2 for 4, Q post 4 for 8 (1 for 5 from 3)Curry sucked this game, but he CANT afford to suck because his teammates suck offensively AND defensively. Which is a circular problem since the fact they suck means he has to force poor shots.

Alright I'm giving up on Cooper Flagg. I really thought he would be good right away but he's just not. I'll check back in in a couple years to see if he's improved.

Why is flagg rated so highly? He‘s literally just another run-and-dunk man. No bag whatsoever
has an /nba/ finals thread ever even gotten close to 9000 replies? I know baseball is a longer sport but still
>>151756155>He‘s literally just another run-and-dunk man. No bag whatsoeverHes a smarter than average run and dunk man, if you want to see what an average run and dunk man looks like, look no further than kuminga
>>151756155yeah...you might want to watch him play. there's a reason why he's one of the best prospects since lebron. keep in mind he's only 18.
>>151756163maybe during the 2015-16 cavs warriors finals, when /nba/ peaked
>>151756155He has a fairly decent bag. His problem is his touch seems really bad from all areas of the court. Just some really bad misses. If he could just hit more of his shots and layups he would be a lot better.
>>151756443When Currgoat was in his godly prime but was met by lady misfortune and got injured twice in the playoffs....

That's what you get for following boreball
All-time choke job
damn 13 assists so far
>>151757117>>151757206I know. But Nico should've seen it coming when he traded for an injury prone guy. Availability is the best ability.Also, Gafford is a pretty good rim protector as well, and PJ is a 3&D wing, and a lot of ppl forget, Flagg's best trait in his scouting report is his defense. But they still look really rough out there. Flagg constantly got blown by which led to Gafford to help and open up the paint

>>151754074I dont remember anything past 10 or 11. But you might actually be retarded if you think its crazy to put McGrady over Harden. I dont even dislike Harden. Genuinely like him as a dude. But Harden fans are genuinely retarded or delusional. Even if Harden wasnt a playoff dropper mentally (so they say, dont really know whether its mental or not). His style of basketball is highly antithetical to winning without literally the perfect situation.Harden is a volume 3 point chucker, but has never shot above 38% from 3 on actually high volume (more than 8 3s per game). And even ignoring volume hes only shot 39% once. Not to mention the fact that hes an iso player and needs the ball as much as possible to be effective means that impact lives and dies based on whether he has the ball, because otherwise his passing is wasted and hes not a good enough catch and shooter or offball player to compensate for that fact. Combine this with the fact that hes generally poor at getting into the paint, even more so now, but also in his prime, and the fact that hes of course a poor defender, not even just generically, but effort wise too, and yeah, no shit somebody could put Tracy McGrady above him, who was a better defender, just as good of a scorer, and an above average passer. Its pretty much a toss up of whos weaknesses you prefer. Im sure Thinking Basketball has more specific statistics on this. But I think Harden has more flaws, hes just probably the more skilled player.I bet youre just rating harden for "ALMOST" beating the warriors, but actually almost all his warriors series are some of his most egregiously inefficient series' ever. The only reason he even got close is because typically the warriors also played poorly against him, and we know Harden isnt a defensive juggernaut so that obviously wasnt because of him

Cooper hasn't missed a free throw in his career. Youngest player ever to hit 20 straight. Hang the banner.
>>151759423>Outside of gay boxscore watcher forums nobody rates harden above McGrady even with the chokingWTF are you talking about retard? boxscore watchers are the exact type of retards to rate Harden higher than his actual on court impact suggests (numbers, not bricking every 3 pointer in the playoffs and still taking the warriors to 7 through pure luck anyway)

>>1517599252012. When did mcgrady?>>151759925McGrady had ONE massive outlier season in 2003 and this somehow puts his peak over harden going toe to toe with the warriors dynasty and MVP/MVP numbers for years. No.
>>151760102Flagg sisters...
>>151760031Both Harden and McGrady have seen minutes in the Finals
>>151760148
TMac was 00s paul george but somehow more brittle and a choker. It's an insult to Harden to even compare them
>>151760158Let's keep in mind Flagg is a year younger than Luka was when he entered the league. Luka was playing much weaker competition at the same age.
>>151760005>Rough day for him in Mexico>The Arena CDMX is located in Mexico City, which has an altitude of approximately 2,240 meters (7,350 feet) above seas level.prolly a rough day for everyone
>>151760292It's an insult to basketball to rate Harden
>>151760315>Luka was playing against plumbers >Today's modern players are way more talented than they were in the Luka rookie era You guys are absurd
>>151760328Idk D'lo and Duren seem pretty good out there
>>151760148>gotta watch the craptors tank after thisNo I don’t think I will. I’m retiring from /sp/ for good. Consider this leaf raked. Thank god I managed to find a good career and gf. Good bye.
>>151760329it's reality. Love him or hate him Harden is a regular season monster and even won some playoff series. He easily clears tmac outside of aesthetics
>>151760005>33 minutes, as the number 1 option and only 16 pt...My question to everyone is it the pressure??? cause guys like Harper and Edgecombe are balling out to a high level, a far better stats and better on the box score radius, but they're on team with the knowledge of "we might contend but no need to worry cause most players around me are similar to age to me"Flagg is on a somewhat aged team, injured AD, Klay is a corpse, Russell hasnt been the same since Laker days, Washington has baby momma issues, If this continues into next season then i'd say Flagg is a bust or a semi bust like Christian Laetner and ive been saying this since last thread, >>151760292If T-Mac actually stuck with his cousin in Ronto he could've won shit but noooo he walked to Orlando and Houston just to get no where in both cities
>>151760387I'm saying that Luka was playing in Euroleague. Please learn to read.Flagg's sophomore year will be equivalent to Luka's rookie year age-wise, so we should not be too quick to judge. There's only been a handful of players to get serious minutes in the NBA at 18.
>>151760315>Flagg is a year younger than Lukaluka started playing professional basketball when he was 16, not 18. cooper is way behind.
>>151760424I was a little kid living in Portland when Drexler and the blazers went to the Finals It was my first time falling in love with the NBaDrexler was like a super hero to meAt the time he was considered Jordan's equalI remember watching the Finals and having my mind blown by this michael Jordan guy I had never seen such basketball eloquence and dominance (highlights of players outside your market weren't shown every day back then)From that moment forward I converted to the religion of Jordan I forgot all about Drexler Still preaching the good word about Jordan till this day Man, if you didn't see him play, you've never seen basketball
>>151760292T-mac and infinitely more talent than both Harden and PG. Kobe knew this and that's why he respected him. He's just a lazy guy who didnt give a shit for anyone except himself and never gelled with the team, kinda like Melo.
>>151760502Forget the age. He doesn‘t have a 10th of the talent luka has and it‘s very easy to see. I think he‘ll be a good player in a few years but the hype doesn‘t match up with the ability at all
I've tried lots of different types of ice cream. Just found my new favorite flavor. My new rankings are as follows >1. Banana cream with pie crusts >2. Browny battered core>3. Strawberry cheesecake
>>151760424What it mostly comes down to is Flagg is missing shots and VJ and Harper are hitting. A lot of that is variance over a small sample size and will even out over the course of the season. Flagg is not going to end the year with 37% FG% and 27% 3P%. Similarly, VJ is not going to end the year shooting 44% from 3.Another factor is Philly has more playmakers to create easy looks for VJ. And Harper has Wemby to draw all the defensive attention in a way that AD does not, in addition to being the easiest lob target in the league.So to summarize, situation and luck explain most of the gap in performance thus far.
>>151760716Flagg will be an 18 and 8 guy.Which honestly is a very valuable player for any term and is really damn good But he won't ever be an mvp type of guy
>>151760584>luka started playing professional basketball when he was 16, not 18. cooper is way behind.That's stupid. We're talking about the NBA here, which is the only fair like-to-like statistical comparison that we can make. US doesn't have pro basketball for minors. He took the path that was available to him and even skipped a year of high school to accelerate it.
T-Mac is better all-time than Harden.
>>151758887>>151759018Hell nah man, spoken like true foreigners, Eastern/Western conferences are part of the league. Removing shit like that is what’s wrong with modern NBA. It’s not soccerAlso the Pistons are a really good team, mark my words, they will go deep in the playoffs
>>151760827Stop making excuses for Flagg sucking assThe three biggest hyped players I've seen drafted #1 before Flagg >LeBron>Zion>Wemby All three of these guys played on shittier teams than Flagg in their rookie yearsAll three of them put up better numbers than Flagg in their rookie year Flagg just isn't that guy.
>>151760735Zion please...
Oops this >>151761055was meant for >>151760746
>>151760716They're different players. Will Flagg ever be dropping 40 on a regular basis and shooting step-back 3's all game? Probably not, but that doesn't mean he can't be just as impactful as a player.For all of Luka's talents and offensive abilities, he was and is a very flawed player, and his flaws were blatantly exposed in the finals. He gives up several baskets every game with his bad defense and complaining to refs, while Cooper saves several baskets every game with his hustle, physical attributes, and defensive IQ. That's a big swing in Cooper's favor, meaning that the offensive gap would have to remain very large for Luka to be clear cut ahead.If Flagg in his prime can average something like 27/8/6 with great defense then I think it would still a debate. That's basically Tatum type numbers. I think Flagg can be a very similar player to Tatum but an even better passer and defender. Flagg is a much more versatile and portable player that can fit on any team, while Luka is extremely heliocentric and needs certain types of players around him to be effective.
>>151761049>Complains about conferences' disparity in strength>Doesn't want to remove conferencesSo what the hell do you want?
>>151760735for me its french vanilla ice cream
>>151761115>So what the hell do you want?dont you see? he just wants you!
We literally just saw last season the Pacers come out of nowhere and be the second best team in the league, as well as the Knicks who looked like ass in the regular season and then were legit come the playoffs. Even the Heat look legit this season. The top 4 or so teams in the East always match up well with the West.
>>151761101>Flagg is a much more versatile and portable player that can fit on any team, while LukaHow many weeds did you smoke to imagine a reality where Flagg fits better on a team than Luka ever?
>>151761140
Lakers are going to win the NBA title this year.
>>151761193The East and the West have defined identities, the West offensive juggernauts who compete with each other hard in the regular season, the East defensive grinders who turn it in the playoffs. It’s NBA culture. Bring back East/West all star game by the way, winner gets home court advantage in the Finals
>>151761193>Pacers came out of nowherGoing to finals after being in the ECF the previous year is "coming out of no where "?
>>151760746Excellent post, I guess the argument of sympathy you could give Flagg is the mental pressure and status, as him coming from rural maine and landing in big city Dallas is a huge cultural shock,But still surprising he couldn't even crack 20 points, I wouldn't scream full on bust, but is definitely getting there, he should at least be getting 17-21 points a night as the guy with AD gone>>151760644Yep, people forget that Drexler was the pinnacle for athleticism in the NBA for guys who weren't 7 foot tall, all the dunking and poster dunks was something he set the tone for, Jordan was fluid but Drexler had a far better vertical and had one the best hops in the NBA better than Jordan

>>151761217Go Lakers!
Fuck CanadaThats what you get for letting Shai make a career out of foulbaiting
>>151761055So your bar for Flagg is the literal GOAT, the future GOAT, and Zion, who's also 1 of 1 athlete and physical specimen who arguably had the GOAT single college season. Flagg doesn't have outlier physical traits like those guys, so we shouldn't expect him to dominate right away.And in terms of team situation, we don't know what kind of numbers Flagg would be putting up if he was given a full green light to run the offense on a tanking team. He's playing within a system for a team that's still trying to win. He's not being given that level of opportunity, so it's hard to directly compare numbers. LeBron was not efficient in his rookie year even though he put up stats. I'm sure Flagg could do similar if given the chance.
>>151761101That‘s a lot of hypotheticals with no evidence to back them up. I don’t even rate tatum that highly but you’re nuts if you think flagg could be a better playmaker than him. Using an arguably bad finals performance from luka to dunk on him when flagg has shown nothing to suggest he could even lead a team to the playoffs, let alone the finals, makes no sense. Luka had a way worse team than flagg and single handedly carried them to the playoffs in his second season averaging over 30 in them. Let‘s see what mr. generational does with all stars around him
>>151761197Maybe you are unfamiliar with the concept.You can not just insert Luka into the starting lineup of teams like ATL, LAC, NYK, and others and just expect that to work seamlessly. Whereas Flagg projects to be the kind of player that can fit into any lineup with no problems, because he is versatile on both ends, a plus defender, can play multiple positions, and is non-ball-dominant. That portability is an important and underrated aspect of a player's value from a roster construction and flexibility standpoint.
>>151761526This is the dumbest fucking thing you have ever posted jeet.
