>Lakers nationThe Los Angeles Lakers announced that Lebron James called out a disrespectful fan on Wednesday night against the San Antonio Spurs.The fan could be heard yelling Bronny (James) MVP chants sarcastically in the crowd. The fan (who owned season tickets) was promptly removed from their seats and told they were not allowed back in the arena after the incident.
>>151835538I went to a Mercury game last summer and as I was in the plaza in front of Talking Stick/Footprint or whatever it's called now I saw him with a 5 foot tall Latina with the most outrageously large ass I have ever seen on a human being going through security together. I'm assuming that's a factor. He could fuck any of the millions of women in Phoenix for the rest of his life.

>>151836214>now
wonder what steve ballmer is doin right now
how come whenever you say SGA or Giannis wives are ugly, people think youre mad theyre not with onlyfans chicks. its like chicks are only fake thots or ugly to these dudes.
>mind the game pod has 3 separate ad break shills (one draftkings) LeGreed is absolutely shameless
love watchin the clippers
Its a lot of bad things that they wishin and wishin
Why the fuck is anyone even watching this garbage
>>151836286shais wife not even bad
Suns are my favourite team in the NBA to watch right now. Glad I switched off the bucks to them, despite the irony of a worse record. They keep up the ball movement way better than bucks because booker is a way better playmaker than Giannis, and the supporting players are too, because some can actually have the instinct to drive too. And more willing passers. Bucks basically just got Ryan Rollins and Giannis.Hope they dont disappoint me like the bucks did, theyve been playing pretty well even without their 2nd and 3rd offensive (and 2nd defensive) player. Hope it keeps up
Clippers need Ben Simmons.
Y'all think Lebron was in those streameast chats? With how media trained it is wouldn't surprise me if he blew off steam there
>>151835463there's no need for a true point guard since your 7' guy can just carry the ball up and down the court and 5 turnovers per game is acceptable
>>151836301>lebum era godstars vs literal trash>getting obliteratedso much for the most talented era
>>151836367I’m not gonna watch the fucking Raiders. So it’s this game instead.

>>151836177What is the context of this image?
Dbook looking to assist too much, i bet this guy has 15 potential assists by the end of the game
The load managing going on right now all over the league is insane
Shout out to Jalen Green won me 50 bucks
>>151836857He got double teamed on legit each possession to be fair
>>151836690Why didn't he just shoot a middy he was wide open
Bradley fucking Beal
>>151836946I know, but he makes those. When his team starts bricking every opening he creates, he has to.
>>151836934fuark. i believed he would be good, i should've bet
Mavs fans really switched up on Luka and backed Nico after they got Flagg and then switched right back to crying about the trade not even 10 games into the season after they realized he's not as good as Luka. Absolutely subhuman fanbase.
>>151834636What was this retard saying again?>>151835572I do agree with this shit though, the bullshit these players pull, they dont deserve a championship, let alone sniffing the playoffs, rooting for the suns Saturday too
>>151837073The worst part is despite this, Mavs are one of the top 3 teams attendance wise apparently
Silver really only had one game today nigga made me eat these wings watching this sad ass game I hope the FBI gets his ass
>>151837073I don't think mavs fans ever switched up since this whole thing was a predictable sequence of bad events, sans the draft pick, and the fire Nico chants literally never stopped. The most hilarious part about all of this is the mavs would be title tier if they just kept Luka but now they're a laughingstock
>Mavs fans really switched up on Luka literally no one did that.
Suns, don’t get used to the JG you saw tonight. There’s a reason we got rid of the retard even when he occasionally puts up games like this.
>>151837127They did. I closely monitored their subreddit and social media after they won the draft and the switch up was almost instant. Anyone dare mention the the trade or Nico after that and they'd get dogpiled to stfu and go cheer for fatty on the Lakers. And now for the past few weeks it's back to every post just crying about how missing Luka.
>>151837127> the fire Nico chants literally never stopped.ThisThey used to kick you out for fire Nico chants, but now they just let them go on because everyone does it. At no point has any Mavs fan accepted the trade or supported it.
>>151837154>There’s a reason we got rid of the retard even when he occasionally puts up games like this.Dont worry, Dbook carries
Rockets winning it all
im a mavs fan who's accepted the trade but doesnt support it. ive been a mavs fan my entire life. shit will not change.

>>151837256>Will the Suns make the playoffs this season? I believe.>And why aren't they playing the rookies they drafted from this draft year?I dont know either. Suns have some good potential rookies, buf apparently the suns coach doesnt like testing guys out like that. Suns are also down 5 losses, so maybe they cant afford to experiment till they go on a streak and lose it.
>>151837397Someone jerked off to this
>>151837154Rockets, don’t get used to the KD you saw tonight. There’s a reason we got rid of the retard even when he occasionally puts up games like this.
>>151837480yes, james harden
>>151837489You can't fool us DraymondWe all know it's you
Luka averaging 40 this season, but they'll still find an excuse to give a negro another DEI MVP
>>151837485kek based
>>151837591>retard skap fans are racistdont know why im not surprised
>>151837591He's only played 5 games and could very well miss the 65 game threshold.
Kobebros...
>>151837591>Luka averaging 40 this seasonwow what month is it? how many games has he missed?
>>151835411nothing, dude was always a tank commander just stat paddingonce he went to actual competing teams he got exposed for being a shitter, dude was never good
>>151837591>Luka averaging 40 this seasonyeah, 40 games
>>151837630He's fucking her, right?
>>151837630what in the ai am i lookin at
Laker guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurlz
>>151834966deni is on pace to be a superstar.
>>151837773Is this the guy who scored 13 pts all from freethrows?
>>151837773hes luka lite which is enough to be a superstar
>>151837781getting to the line is a skill. why are we pretending its not?
>>151837773Bro had 0 made FGs at half
>>151837773him or giddey for MIP?
>>151837773Chauncey was holding him back.
>>151837804vegas already giving that shit to wemby cuz reasons lmfao
>>151837804giddey 100% because of team record. deni could sneak in the all star game as a reserve.
>>151837812WHY THE FUCK IS A NUMBER 1 PICK IN THE RUNNING FOR MIP
>>151837812his stats are the same as last year. he's not getting MIP, or MVP, but he's a lock for DPOY if he qualifies.
>>151837243both him and john wall suckno wonder the wizards never went anywhere
>>151837655How many players have averaged 40 in a 5 game stretch? Not just begging of the season.Maybe harden? Cause even guys who drop 60 and 70 once would drop 30 for the rest and average less than 40 in a 5 game stretch.
>>151837846>How many players have averaged 40 in a 5 game stretch?nephew...
>>151837773>>151837789he plays much faster and is more athletic than luka.
Petefag at home seething he got his chain snatched again
>mfw when the pacers started last season off this bad and still made it to the fucking finalslook, now i can cope that the suns will have a similar run this year
>>151837687kek
>>151837916>snusunfortunately they play in the stacked west and not weenie hut jr eastern conference where you could still walk into the playoffs with a negative record
>>151837916>the pacers started last season off this bad and still made it to the fucking finalswhat are you willing to sacrifice?
>current bottom of the western conference team that isnt even fun to watch, or straight up good at basketball whatsoever is first in attendance over suns and warriors who are shit but atleast have good ball movementwow, what a shit sport fanbase.
>>151837965they fell for the flagg propaganda
>>151837964>what are you willing to sacrifice?Dillon Brooks' ankle as a sacrifice seems fine?
>>151837965watch nba league pass, the mavs arena is full of indians stunting on their cousins
>>151837965>4th defensivelylol dude fuck off, they are not that good defensively, i dont care what narratives you come up with, its not true.
>>151837916This is going to be the Magic this year
>>151837976Indians that make it to Dallas are the ones too poor for California
>>151837981That pace stat looks sus too, i watched this shitty ass team defer to AD at the post like a hundred times in one game because none kf them can move for shit without the ball or create any penetration, legit none of them have a handle whatsoever
>>151837983no, itll be the suns, see you in febuary when we see who is right so far, and then finally in april where the winner wins...nothing but brownie points.
>>151837984dallas has the most H-1Bs outside NYC, it even beats out the DMV
>>151837965>4th defensively>26th net ratingDefense wins championshipsbros.... have we been duped?Btw the Mavs' offense is so shit none of the defensive top 5 of the last 5 years is even close to that kind of toxic net rating. The nearest is the Magic last year and they "only" had a -0.08 Net with the 2nd best defense
https://youtu.be/ePrlEVOBowo?t=6mBooker is underrated. There are seriously people who think that Klay Thompson, or Reggie Miller, or fucking Manu are better Shooting Guards all time, just because 2 of those guys were on some of the most stacked teams all time with great coaches (Manu actually deserves way more credit than Klay, he atleast deserves one FMVP) and one of those guys played against Michael Jordan and was clutch and NBA players love clutch playoff plays.Manu is the only one Ill even entertain being as good, but Book clears.
What went right with the pistons? It's just 2 years ago they had that insane losing streak
>>151837975lol no, you're giving up something from booker
>NBA cup games tomorrowoooh yeah we finna see some upsets
what excuse did we make for Jokic again in the 2024 playoffs?
>>151838056The real question is what went so, so wrong for Monty Williams. He coached a Finals-bound team after winning the coach association awards twice, then he turned around and masterminded the atrocious Pistons season
https://x.com/anthonyVslater/status/1986562841294635068?t=gi3g5qWynutRcYjoLN6u7w&s=19Lesgooo my fraudrriors tied 5-5 with the suns

>>151838089its time
>>151838089>teams already skipping out on NBA cup gamesGood, fuck this fraud tournament Silver you bald fuck
>>151838125Kuming "Can't hit an open fadeaway. Gst baited into posting up and stumbles into a travel once the player realizes he has no bag or handle and needs to rely on brute physicality" tard...Honestly I feel bad for Kuminga sometimes, I wouldnt be so hard on him if his deranged fans did not inflate him to absurd heights, and praise virtually every little thing he succeeds at off the back of his inherent athletic traits. I saw a Kumingtard fan legit say that Dennis Schroeder tripped him on that post up bait. THAT is how delusional Kuminga fans are.
>>151838132nigga he is sick you retard, also cup games count as regular season games, makes no sense to skip out on them for fun unless youre retarded, or you think youre the 07 suns and will go on two 15 game win streaks later in the season.
>>151837965people are overreacting about the mavs. They're slowly stopping the retarded lineups and shit like point flagg. I don't think they'll be great but a lot of their problems are self inflicted
>>151838138I don't care I hate the tournament, if teams skip out on them just like any other regular games then maybe Silver will get that it's a shit idea
Bradley beal might be the goat
>>151838135Why are there so many Kuminga fans out there?
Is cam thomas out for the season? The nets might win the nba cup
>>151838163Losing is good for them anyway. They obviously aren’t real contenders. AD doesn’t fit with their centre rotation, Kyrie isn’t a number one, clearly Flagg will take some time to figure things out. I hope they blow things up, draft Stirtz, and build around him, Christie, Flagg, and Lively. They would get some good picks from trading Kyrie and AD, and would still have good role players in Gafford, Washington, Marshall, Williams, etc
>>151838056they got rid of killian hayes and drafted a dawgson brother
My nba finals is the kings vs the nets. Russ will retire as the highest scoring point guard, highest rebounding guard, and nba champion.
>>151836795Harden and Kawhi not playing and beal scoring 2 points
>>151836795Young nigga Jalen Green has become a 29 PPG scorer. Houston lost the trade.
>>151837011its 2025 we don't shoot middys anymore
>>151836934Phenomenal player, just inconsistent, trading him for an old ass KD was retarded though, could've given him more chances

>>151839502cant prove it but this is a pistol pete faggot post
and still the undisputed best player in the league
>has the narrative>has the statsis there any way Luka doesnt win MVP this season besides catastrophic injury?
>another season of the nba robbing joker of mvpnarrative league is fake and gay
>>151840258he doesnt even want MVP, everytime he gets an MVP is a time he has to spend doing boring shit
>>151839088He JUST got his jersey retired Grizzlies are fucking cursed
>>151840240He's not going to play enough games. He's already missed 4 out of 9 games. He always get minor injuries throughout the season. It's not happening.
MVP will come down to Jokic vs SGA again. Jokic will have better overall stats and efficiency, SGA will have better team record and defense. Same debate as last year.Giannis would be in the convo but his team won't be good enough.Luka won't play enough games, and the Lakers will probably be the 5 or 6 seed.
>>151840339>List of 4x MVPsKareemJordanRussellLeBronWiltIf the race is close at all, they're not gonna let Jokic into that club before he wins another chip. SGA would have to get injured or something.
>>151840339If Spurs seeds better than Nuggets Wemby's is giftwrappedHe and his team is going to have to adapt to strats to contain him all season long though
>>151840359> they're not gonna let Jokic into that club I feel the same way. They dont want to put jokic in that category
>>151840339Its honestly so hard to picture anyone winning over SGA for the foreseeable future
>>151840303the irony of the whole situation is that Tony Allen was supposed to have his jersey retired years ago but got arrested for welfare fraud.
>>151840214crazy that nico didn't get reaveswhat an absolute brainlet
>>151836076That’s not even fair, he should only fuck tall girls
>>151840406if sga misses time due to injury, and the nuggets have a netter record than the spurs and lakers, it has to be joker
>>151840412ay man he a real one bruh
>>151840372>If Spurs seeds better than NuggetsSpurs would be fortunate to avoid the play-in. No way they finish ahead of the Nuggets.
>>151840359black excellence
>>151840406SGAy is gonna win da mvp every year until his team loses in the playoffs, which is perfectly fineif anybody has a problem with it maybe they should beat him and this gay "we're all friends xd" league can be competitive again
>>151840425Yeah but thats the thing its way more likely for Jokic to miss more games/get injured than SgaThe fact that sga barely goes for power dunks or contested drives anymore makes him even more durable
>>151840406Wemby
>>151840460can anyone stop him from 3peating?
>>151840455What? Jokic is one of the most durable players in the league. He's never had a major injury, whereas SGA has. SGA's pkaystyle is way more prone to injury than Jokic who barely jumps and never falls to the ground.
>>151840539yeah at worst Jokic will dislocate a finger. I think the only even missed a lot of games last season because his wife was giving birth
Jokic will win if the Nuggets are 2nd in the West
>>151840413Nikek will go down in history
Zydeco
We're never seeing another American MVP ever again are we?
As a Denver fan I hate to admit it but the Nuggets are frauds. They lost to the only 2 good teams they've faced so far.Phoenix is gimped by their contract situation. Minnesota was missing Ant. Pels and Kangz no explanation needed. Bam left the game early, giving Jokic free reign on the court against the Heat
>>151840868It's only going to continue since tonight the Warriors will be short-handed with Steph out and maybe Jimmy and Dray too
>>151840841Cooper Flagg bros...
>>151840437They looked pretty hot starting out but you might be right. We might be seeing a tight middle seeding race again this year though>>151840406Hot take: Josh Giddey
>>151840575not if doncic, wemby, or sga have the 1 seed
black americans lost the sport once the game moved away from playing defense and shooting mid rangers
>>151840997I'm taking Shai 1 seed as a given, but I think the narrative would swing in Jokic's favour if Nuggets are 2nd
If Nugs lose tonight against no Steph we should bury talks about a 4th MVP
>>151841019Nobody's going to remember a stinker in November
>>151841028>TODAY MATTERS>THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING
>>151841017nah, black media was trying to give sga the mvp 2 seasons ago when their team records were the same. If sga and the thunder have a better record, he is winning another
>>151841047Maybe you're right.
Kidd has been setting Flagg up for failure by playing him as the lead ball handler so early on. I hope he continues to play a point guard alongside him from now on.
>>151841032>NOBODY THIS NOTICING THIS
>>151841250thats the burden you take when having to do youube for a living
life's not fair
Oh boy, Suns fans all over the place are running victory laps about Jalen Green. I’m genuinely happy for the guy but I’m also telling you now that this one side of the roller coaster that is JG4.
>>151834966Meal. Snicker doddle frosty with cherry limeade sparkling energy drink
>>151841202Also Brandon Williams is simply better than Russell and should play ~30 minutes a night if the Mavs want to be competitive at all
>>151841392What team do you root for mealGAWD
i haven't seen the entirety of the west look so scary like this in a long ass time. Anyone can beat anyone on any night, it's a matter of who's gonna fight harder.
>>151835538>make almost a billion dollars after contracts and endorsements>finals appearance >somehow “losing”???
>>151840868that's not fraudulent though. Who knows what will happen by the end of the season, there's a good chance most of these nba stars are gonna be in street clothes. Jokic however is made of fucking slavic steel. It's a long ass season and we just started.

>>151841599The European youth basketball development program is much better than the AAU shit here. Much like the youth Japanese baseball system vs here in the states.Also slavic people descend from slaves, slave masters only let the strongest slaves breed to make better slaves for the future. It’s the same thing here with black people.
>>151841599eastern euros are also known as slavs. aka slaves. You dont need that much brain power to figure out why theyre good at basketball
>>151841557That's the 16 year old? She looks walled already
>>151841599>>151841620>children of slaves are good at sports (entertaining the rich)Water is wet
>>151840892if steven is out then his backpack is automatically out also
>>151841599>>151841620>>151841638So because my ancestors owned slaves my bloodline will never be good at basketball? That’s unfair.
Do Americans actually think all Slavs were slaves like black Americans were or is it a meme
>>151841688Where do you think the word “slav” comes from?
>>151841688noamericans think the only slaves to have ever existed are black american slaves
>>151841688>colonizer doesn’t know his history Typical.
>>151841703The word ‘slave’ comes from ‘Slav’, and for the most part those enslaved Slavs are not even antecedents of modern day Slavs. It’s kind of like calling a Nigerian the descendent of slaves because black Americans originally from Nigeria were enslaved.

>>151834996Trae and Giannis if it ever happened (it won't)
>>151842290Giannis doesn't like to screen and roll. When Dame first got traded, everyone was shitting their pants about muh unstoppable Dame and Giannis P&R and that never materialized at all.
>>151842388Giannis inverted screen with AJ Green is the unstoppable play
>>151840731Grizzbros, we FUCKING won (this one thing and nothing else)>>151841599Yugoslavs are tall>>151842388Dame is a fraud however, maybe he'd do it for Trae

My Bullies are a 1-4 seed. :)
Flagg really hit this guy with a too little gesture
>>151842848i'm off the hooper fagg bandwagon after that 1he's supposed to be celebrating big wins over real teams not showboating on a gleaguer while his team's gonna finish 2-80
>giving up on Hooper Flagg before ThanksgivingI'm shleeeeeeeeeeeeep. Should have seen how /nba/ was talking about Wemby early on too.
i think this court looks really cool but that mandatory trophy decal is so damn ugly
>>151842848Apparently this dude is better at basketball than any of us here and it's not even close. How do you all feel about that?
>>>/wsg/6022991what did he mean by this
Flagg finna drop 30 tonight
>>151840304>He always get minor injuries throughout the seasonAnd got 5 all-nba and all-star.He only missed out with a major injury
WWENBA king of the ring is trash and nobody cares about it
>>151840460Phoenix and Indy courts look great. idk about their teams though.
>>151843293If they play an actual point guard then it’s possible. Just needs those threes to start falling
>>151843185As Scalabrini said, the distance between him and Lebron is smaller than the distance of normies and him basketball skill wise
My magic surely will win tonight
>>151842848>Flagg really hit this guy with a too little gesturei like that. in the 1950s you wouldnt see that because they'd have a whole "us white boys gotta stick together" code where they don't attack eachother. the fact that coop embarrasses a fellow whiteboi and then doubles down on it basically means racism is no longer an issue in america
>>151843388But will it be because or despite of the Paolo/Franz connection?
>>151843422Despite of. Today will be the big guy Bane hard carrying
>>151842848I don't always trust the narrative. Sometimes athletes put up respectable numbers and there's still a shadow over them. I think of like Duncan Robinson getting clapped on every def possession. Bol Bol blowing every def assignment then refusing to swing it on offense. I haven't been watching McClung's games, but he's not coming off the bench and putting donuts across the box score.
>>151843185He's undersized and doesn't have the offensive skills of a brunson to save himself. In the nba at 6'2 you're a manlet
Magic are bad because Wagner barely touches the ball. I hope they trade him
>the top rebounder and 3 point shooter joined Jordan>Steph got KD to join him>K.Love joined Lebron>fuckin Lillard joined GiannisWhat is it about Joker that doesnt attract all stars? Has to be an ownership thing
>>151843516Westbrook
>>151843509People keep saying this about bane tooSo who the hell is doing all the ball touching? Cant be all Banchero
>>151843528>out of prime net negative Westbrookthats like when Jordan got help from Jerry fucking stackhouse
>MVP Ladder >Sha, Giannis, Jokic, Wemby, Luka>6th is fucking Giddey>first us player is Maxey at 7Americans better hope Flagg matches the Mavs wildest hope and dreams
>>151843516Denver is an awful place up in the mountains
>>151843533Suggs, Banchero, and Tyus Jones when on the floor, then it’s split pretty evenly between Wagner, Bane, and Black. Paolo and Suggs just aren’t good enough handlers and creators to justify it
>>151843614My theory is that Tyus Jones is a cursed player dude has the most loser aura. Its carrying out to the magicJust like it did for the suns recently
>>151843614Nor is Jones I should add
>>151843649Yeah he’s shit. How tf can you be a manlet in the nba and not be able to shoot
>>151843596shit, a good white player wouldnt care, and they still wont join
>>151843703Jokic’s play style doesn’t really suit other stars
>>151843720his playstyle literally lets some random dribble the air out of the ball for major stretches of any game
>>151843703Free agents pick the team that offers more money and there at 29 other destinations. Ring chasing is a thing of the past, now it's bag chasing first
>>151843720uhh... just cut to the rim or stand behind the 3 point line
>>151843743Well yeah the only way to fit another on-ball star around him would be to replace Murray with a different pnr ball handler. That would have to be done via trade though realistically
Who is the best player in the NBA, Jokic or Luka?
>>151843796they just need a sharp shooting all star. not tim hardaway jr
what are the good matchups today
>>151843819It's been Giannis for 7 years straight
Lakers are the real deal
>>151843824Who though? If all they’re going to do is shoot, cut, and defend then they can find role players to do that (which they have done well).
>>151843819Jokic has won 3 mvps and a ringDoncic has err umm uhh well he makes some cool 3 pointers (shooting 30.5% from three this season)
>>151843819Jokic. Luka’s only plus over Jokic is volume scoring. If I need some to completely carry and take most of the shots I’d pick Luka. In every other scenario, I’d pick Jokic.
>yesterday I asked what excuses people make for Jokic 2024 playoffskek>realizing I shouldnt have asked because of course it would be blaming the same player who whenever is injured or missing, they use as an excuse to why Jokic couldnt get it done>blaming a player that has more onball responsibilities than jokic and usually has to deal with the opposing teams best defender whereas jokic can just catch the ball in the most and spin or pass while everybody moves around himhilariously retarded general.
>>151843911Jokic would average 40 over a season if he wanted to be as inefficient as Luka
Should we have a GOAT debate before the coveted NBA Emirates Cup games start?For me, it's the all-time pound for pound GOAT Allen Iverson.
>>151843873>play with a guy who's gonna get you a career high in efficiency>top 5 chip favorite
wemby is pretty pathetic. you're a full foot taller than players and they've already shut you down.
>>151844050At least he doesn't flop like Embiitch
>>151844050he is back to wembust status after a couple of games
>>151844050It’s literally only been 2 games. Calm down.
>>151844050wemby is defense first
When will Wemby get a career ending injury?
>>151844146When sensei finally picks a player to sweep the leg
Sean Marks wins again
>>151844084he probably should
>>151844163Cam won't be bricking forever. All the other theoretical stuff is happening, but his shot just isn't falling
>>151844084he would shorten his career if he starts doing that
>>151844209We got the better younger player and draft pick. Cam can return to form and we’d have still won the trade.
been crestfallen with my warriorers lately
>>151844238you got a massive, untradeable contract and a draft pick. The nugs got a more versatile, better fitting piece on a cold streak. It's a wash
>>151844256
>>151844256watch as they bullshit their way into a W tonight
>>151844256sometimes i think instead of the "warriors", they actually are the "worriers"...
>>151844217Here's hoping Embiid flops like never before this season.
https://youtu.be/0Hefon8WsdU?t=1m53sWhy would Zubac hedge in this situation? The Paint is wide open. If he hedges, all Gillepsie needs to do is move like 2 feet to the right so that his man cant help on the roll, and if he chooses not too, then he concedes a wide open 3 if Dbook is patient enough.See, this is my problem with these videos. It sort of strips the fact that Basketball is not chess. Its not a game that could possibly even be played by robots, even the most athletic robot created. There are counters and actions for everything. Basketball is a game about creating and leveraging advantages, and clogging up and stopping those advantages. Unless its particularly egregious. If NBA players are doing something "wrong" its because theyre sacrificing another option that "could" be worse. This isnt ALWAYS the case of course, some people are just lazy defenders, some people switch late, some people are bad at fighting over screens, some people dont ice quickly enough etc. etc. But this is not the situations he points out here.Dbook is going to hit almost any middy he gets, but he cant win a game single handedly if his team is playing trash, we saw that with the warriors. He dropped 38 on them and still lost. Suns were -19 with Book off the courtClippers are probably thinking early that they can give book all the shots he wants but aslong as they limit his playmaking and advantage creation that theyll win. Now I dont know for sure whether this is the case, but id just wager a guess based on how they've played the matchup.
Feels like this is the year where Steph, Bron, and KD just need to let it go
you know... i think inceltic may have been right...
>>151844425we was done with them old ass nigga 2 years ago when KD was getting swept, Lebron getting gentlemen's swept, and Curry losing in the play-ins. We're objectively in a different era of sgas, lukas, ants, and jokics with the Wemby era right around the corner
>>151844457Oh yeah the era changeover happened a while back. What I meant is that they need to retire before it gets ugly.
>>151844280How is his contract untradeable and he was already traded directly after his worst playoff performance? Now he’s playing at all star level, the Nets could easily move him but why would they and they can barely hit the salary floor? And how is Cam more versatile when Porter Jr is better than him at everything?
>>151844238netlican bros we're on the upswing
my wizard
Netlican chads always have the last laugh
>>151844479he was traded to the only team with cap and it took an unprotected first. He is not playing at allstar level, he's just putting up stats on a trash team with mediocre efficiency, bad by his previous standards. It would take picks or at least taking back bad contracts to move him Cam is also a better defender, better at keeping the flow of the offense, and straight up isn't as up and down in effort even though he's shooting poorly. One of the most underreported stories of the season is that the nugs defense is straight up good now and a big part of that is no longer having to cover for mpj's lapses
>>151844425shut the fuck up retard
>>151844567Your boy’s washed leaf
https://youtu.be/NwvBAg61674?t=28sThe only time (that ive watched) where hes right about anything, and agreeable, is when it has to do with Jonathan Kumingtard, because he is genuinely a zero IQ player overhyped, and overprotected by retarded fanbases. There is no STRATEGY or "Ill give this up, for this other advantage/coverage" with Kumingtard. He is just an extremely retarded defender, and an offensive player who can literally only run and dunk, and if he doesnt get the free way to run and dunk, he somehow sucks at scoring through contact despite his athleticism, so he racks up most of his points on freethrows, in transition, or making the basic cut, and thats not consistent enough offense as most offense is halfcourt and warriors defense isnt good enough to constantly force transition play.
>>151844606I know. That doesnt mean I want you talking about it until he doesnt make the playoffs.
>>151844632Fair enough kek
there are 2 belgian guys in the nba, both drafted in the second round, one is toumani camara and another one is ajay mitchell, so i think belgian fans have to be pretty happy with how they are performing as they are both developing nicely and trending upwards
>>151844559So MPJ shooting 46% from the field means the Nets lost the trade because he’s inefficient but Cam shooting 38% means the Nuggets won? Or let me guess, Cam’s efficiency will improve to average for his career whereas MPJ’s will not? Cam Johnson is not so much better of a defender than MPJ (average on that end by every available defensive metric) to mitigate his lack of production, rebounding, and passing. Also yes the Nets got a future unprotected pick in addition to the better player in the trade, we’ve covered this the Nets won the trade
>>151844683>so i think belgian fans have to be pretty happy with how they are performing as they are both developing nicely and trending upwardsbelgian fans probably dont know ball, probably rooting for whichever loser from their country is on a major soccer team
>>151844729I never said the nets lost the trade, I said it was a wash. Cam will have positive regression more inline with his normal averages because that's what typically happens to everybody and that's before you get to the Jokic bonus. MPJ is less likely because the whole structure of the nets is fucking stupid and he's doing all types of shit outside of his scope which is why he's already taking a hit with nor reason to think that will get better. Cam being average on D is better than mpj being bad on D. Cam is a straight up better passer and off the dribble creator but he's on way less volume than MPJ who's masquerading as a #1 so of course he will have lesser numbers. MPJ is indeed a straight up better rebounder, probably shooter too, but as a 3rd-5th option Cam is better in the role and the nets are getting no real value out of mpj outside of the pick they got. The only way the nets "win" the trade is if they can flip him for something else good or he becomes a major piece to their future, both of those are unlikely
>>151844683Isn't Tony Parker Belgian?

I don’t think I’m making it till thanksgiving. My time is coming.
What the fuck is wrong with my Magic? Why are they shit?
This is why Ant is the face of the league. He's ho proof.

>>151844163Why did they trade him? Was is about money?
>>151845422>ant>ho proof

>>151845434>>151845458Shitty draft and Sarr refused to go there
>>151845464Should've drafted Donovan Klingon.
>>151845444Yes. Otherwise, they would've have the good bench they have now
>>151843417>in the 1950s you wouldnt see that because they'd have a whole "us white boys gotta stick together" codenot true. once the league became half black, then maybe there was a stick together code. But the 50s was just white and whites think showing off is wack

>>151845422Why would he say something like that? That's just mean and for no reason at all
>>151835303Zero proof or even direct claims against him. It was the most fabricated scandal of all time.

How many NBA Emirates cup has Jordan won
>>151846170He could never
>>151846170All of them.
You now remember Damien Lillard is an NBA Emirates cup CHAMPION.
What happened to Bane's three point shot? He's a brick factory now.
>>151846193No refunds
Brown's 1 move this season has been to stop int he paint and shoot a fadeaway, and the league has figured him out.
>>151845982Spurs win. That’s what I bet.
Anthony Black almost died
thats gonna be a flagrant on simons i reckon
>>151846193the orlando water
it's pretty sad the celtics won a shipthey are doooooooooooooooog shit
oh wow simons gets away with it even thoug he almost turned anthony black into leaky black
>>151846193Millionth time a fringe all-star is a good fit on paper, overpaid for and then tanks his price. When will GMs learn
>>151846243A stain on luka's career
Bitadze is from Georgia just like Jaylen Brown.
>>151846170None but based on the teams that have won it he can come back as a 60 year old and win one no problem
>>151846243Tatum's out, what did you expect?
>>151846254Fat Luka was completely unprepared for the athleticism of Brown and Tatum
Damn these Celtics are straight up racist. They cut all black players and the only black guy they have on the floor is lighter than Pritchard.
>>151846281He was injured and Kyrie was a ghost. Luka just paddled Wemby, I don't think Gaytum and "Jaylen" are an issue. for him.
>>151846243They just made threes that’s all there was to it.
>>151846293pretty much
Tall guy vs tall guy game about to start :D
now taylor rooks is a black bitch i would want to fuck
What’s the best path for Mavs fans? Trading AD and going all in on a Flagg rebuild? Hoping healthy Ad And Kyrie can win the ship with young flagg ? Because they still probably lose to Denver, Thunder, rockets, lakers, warriors, etc By the time Flagg is good enough to matter AD and Kyrie will probably be out of their prime. Maybe if Mavs tank they can get the #1 pick this year too
Senguns such a dog. Love that nigga.
>>151846330fire nico
My KD is finally playing SF again~
>>151846330If their best option is tanking with their current window then lmao
If Wemby puts up another performance like the last two then he's officially a bust.
good evening /nba/brosIt’s time for Rockets basketball against the Spurs
>>151836370She looks like Luka wife
Why so many empty seats? Are people retarded or something?
>>151846407Lfgooo
nuggets will be facing a paper-thin warriors but knowing nuggets are allergic to win any game in NBA cup, don't think they'll win this easily

>>151846494The people aren't ready for it yet.
>spuds>wemby can’t get open they literally can’t do anythingThere’s a reason everyone calls them alien merchants
Wemby should learn to shoot 3s since no one can ever contest him. Don't bother driving into the paint and risk turning the ball over.
GREEN CHADS we won
>>151846476I don’t care for the cup either but if I were in San Antonio I would wanna this matchup. Two of the most interesting teams in the nba. I’ll probably end up going to an nba game in Texas this year.
>>151846515He should just stand under the rim and have people throw him the ball.
>>151846499The NBA cup is Silvers' way to encourage the Millionaires to give a fuck for the beginning part of the season
