Air Jordan edition
>>152902206Thank you for making this
I'm not posting in petefag's thread. Piece of shit started spamming Deni now
Can't wait for his lawsuit pay out
Jordan would get demolished in today’s NBA. He’d pass out from exhaustion by the end of the 1st quarter. But he’d be really good in the dunk contest.
>>152902329Yeah right Jordan would score 100 today
Is it true my Lakers are frauds? I just wish we had Austin and no Luka or LeBron
I don't follow politics but I do admire brave NBA coaches and players who put their jobs and lives on the line to protest killing of brown people like that Minnesota lady.
>>152902329Jordan was on PEDs, no way he tires out. He'd be on even better PEDs now so he would be the best player by a mile
Finally, a good thread.
>>152902460The only guy who actually put his job on the line to protest murder was Robert Saleh who got fired by his jew boss Woody Johnson. Saleh was calling for the end of Israeli genocide in his family's ancestral home of Lebanon
>>152902408Yeah bro we're fucked until LeBron is gone and they trade Luka's crybaby ass
>>152902460Twitterfags are seething over this
>>152902408Luka can work, but hes out of his element when hes surrounded by bums that cant shoot. Rui is out, but he's such a defensive liability as to not be playable against certain teams (Rockets). Reaves + Luka + athletic defensive big + defensive wing can work. Need to trade Bron.
>>152902383Lamelo Ball would fucking school him
>>152902611Jordan with no traveling, hand checking or palming is unguardable
>>152902709MJ couldn't tween like Melo
>>152902604Just gotta wait for this year to be over. LeBum won't waive his no trade clause
>>152902732LaMelo wouldn't be in the NBA if the referees actually called the rules the way they're supposed to be called
>>152902709This isn't even a debate. Jordan with modern rules, strategy, non-defense and foul baiting would average 50-60ppg a year
>>152902709it's weird as hell how people pretend like we haven't seen a completely all-around lesser version of mj be a perennial allstar even with mental fragility
>>152902975Not only that, he'd win every championship for 12 years if he played in today's NBA. Zoomers have no idea how dominant this guy was
>>152902999Kobe in today's NBA would average 50ppg. Now imagine a better version of him in MJ doing it when both were already averaging 35+ppg against real defenses with real rules. It's not even a debate he'd break every single scoring record
If you put Shaq, Kobe, Jordan, Wilt or Iverson in today's NBA they'd all score 70+ routinely
Dolph Schayes would average 6 million in today's NBA
>>152903168Deni Avdija deserves to be cooked 6 million times. By SGA in NBA
>>152902206Thank you for making a non jew thread! I almost had to stop posting again kek
How many anons could score 1 field goal in the NBA today? You score 1 field goal you get 10 million dollars but if you lose you die
>>152903252what about 2 FTs from foulbaiting?
>>152903252I could average 30 on Luka.
>[Amick] Michael Porter Jr. is a “lock” to be moved by the trade deadlineTeams are gonna be lining up to get him
>>152903277the missing piece
GOAT Kornet game tonight
less gay thread>cavs almost beat wolves two days ago, despite playing some of the dumbest basketball ever>lost to wolves shooting 53% from 3, totally real and sustainable >Get blown out so bad the next game that they sit all their starters with like 2 minutes left>Because the wolves bench was playing against the Cavs bench, the game only looked like a loss by about 10 point, when it was closer to 20 points with starters vs startersWhat ive learned from this game is that numbers truly dont do some players justice and the Cavs offense with Darius Garland playing well and comfortably is insane, and he won't get credit for hockey assists, or generating so many points in the paint, but he was more impactful to the team as a whole than Mitchell, even if Mitchell is the better "self creator".This team does not win this game without Sam Merril dropping 20, Mobley dropping 20, Tyson dropping 20 etc.Take away 10 points from Mitchell and they still win this game. Not to discount Mitchell good play. But its obvious that Mitchell isnt Kobe, this team succeeds better with a top tier facilitator getting everybody involved.If you dont know ball, youd think those 8 Micthell assists were more impactful than DG's 6.Its just about consistency from DG now. Mobley, Allen, Merril are all play finisher types, their burden for consistency should be easier as theyre not doing much but putting the ball in the basket. Garland having this much effect, also means the burden of the blame when hes not on top of his game.I do find it funny that suddenly his defense doesnt actually matter that much this game. Hmmmm
>>152903300If you put him in Tobias Harris's role, Detroit are Eastern Conference Champions for 5 years straight
>>152903277Some victims are really about to pay three first round picks for a proven playoff dropper
"Just remember Michael...."
>>152903252do i have any time to prep? i could prob score once, as the defense would basically dare me to shoot
Unsurprisingly NBA coaches are mentally retarded
>>152903274>Field goal
>>152903619You have one game 48 minutes. Warm up, do your thing whatever it takes
>>152903434>playoff dropperThat's an understatement. Do you know how hard it is to shoot 14% from 3 against an 8th seed? This is James Harden levels of choking.
>>152903619If the defense is aware of the stipulation and they would die if you score, then you definitely ain't scoring
>>152903786Nigga does that every other series
>>152902206You don't have the pencil drawing version?
Ant the best player itw btw
>>152904087Ant will eventually get an MVP but he would laugh at you and tell you it's Joker
>>152904130>Ant will eventually get an MVPNah
>>152902408Ayton isn't the solution to the center issue. They need a rim protector who doesn't care about touches and Ayton is a lazy cunt who wants to pad his stats because he still thinks he's a star.And they knew that before they even traded for him, he was just so fucking cheap that there was minimal liability. He's gone after this year, lol @ whatever team offers that dude a contract. He couldn't even fake giving a shit for his contract run.
>>152904309They should've gone after Luke Kornet or Mamu.
>>152904309I'd be shock if anyone even gives him a guaranteed contract. Dude is lazy AF
>>152904325Yeah the only free agent centre worth going after this year is Mitchell Robinson. Lakers need Dean Wade too.
The electricians in the 60s working part-time could score 200 in today's NBA
HITLER would average 60 today
>>152904718Hitler was 5'9 he couldn't do shit.
>>152904777hitler da 5'9
>>152904777He could coach up Chetty on a proper vegan diet
>could I score a field goal in the nba I see 2 issues with this. Firstly, my teammates would realize after a couple possessions that I’m ass, and stop passing me the ball. Second, the coach would realize I’m ass and take me out of the game. And the more I try to score the faster those things happen. So realistically you’d have like 2-3 chances. Could I shoot 33-50 percent fg in an nba game? Prolly not. And since another anon already said no free throws I can’t just SGA my way out of it. Most players are taller than me and prolly faster, so midrange is pretty sketch. I suspect driving to the basket would end badly especially since no free throws count. So I’d have to just take a logo 3 when defense isn’t paying attention. I don’t like my chances at all
Moe Wagner is back. I fear the Magic are contenders now.
>>152904995Actually I take that back, I’d sit in the corner and wait to be open for a 3. I still maintain you’d get 2-3 chances before your teammates stop passing to you or the coach takes you out. Not impossible but not great odds considering the crowd, intensity, pressure etc. now if somehow I get left in all game and the team keeps passing me the ball sure I could score. I’d just keep chucking until one goes in. The defense would probably just start leaving me open 24/7 and we’d lose 140-40 or some shit but I’d hit at least one.
if you're a mid profile nba player do you even care about winning a ring? whats a ring worth when you're not a lebron or jokic like player in contention for greatest of all time? absolutely nothing
>>152905168Bro really tried to sneak Jokic in with Lebron lmao
>>152904049Anyone got any images or videos with LeBron at the dunk contest? I can't find anything on the internet
>>152905168being on championship teams gets you invited to all kinds of extracurricular shit for the rest of your life
>>152905194
>>152905194LeBitch isn't anywhere near the top 10 all time. Not even top 20.
>>152905168It’s still cool to get a ring. But more importantly you get paid. Gms are retarded and overrate pretty much every player on a championship team. It’s one of the reasons it’s hard to keep a team together after winning. All of a sudden your whole team is worth more. So if you don’t overpay them now some other team will on the next contract. Prolly doesn’t apply to end of bench players but anyone in the rotation gets an aura boost. I’m not sure if every player realizes this but surely most do
>>152905168Assuming the mid player is contributing something, winning is still a big incentive since it increases your player value
>>152905223The NBA refballed this dude out his second championship. If there was no refball there wouldn't have been a game 6 and AG wouldn't have died. But he did choke the wolves one the prior year.
>>152905204Lebron's dunk contest footage was accidentally destroyed in a fire
>chris paul is going to retire without a ringNY should pick him up
>>152905223Statpadding will do that. Maybe he should try giving up some touches and actually play team basketball if he wants to actually win at the highest level. Notice how neither of Lebron or MJ's best winning seasons are up there.
>>152905367
>>152905204It's inside your mum
>>152902383He would average over 50 a game. Can you imagine Jordan playing without hand checking and around these complete weaklings, in a league where a literal obese Jokić can win MVP
I'll give you a bit of BAWBcord game, Herro is already better than Ja because Ja is an ageing injury prone non shooting manlet
>>152905168It’s cool to win. I think success for a mid-tier player is to ring, hang around in the league for a decade and earn like $100m or whatever
>>152905531lol jordan doesn't know how to shoot 3s. he'd average whatever SGA is averaging minus 6.
I kinda think the Nets should just keep MPJ and build around him. He’s only like 27. The Nets don’t have their pick next year.
>>152905754He's not an actual 27 bc of his injuries thoughbeit
Giannis gtfo there
>>152902206Based MJ thread. I'm gonna hide out in here from all the redditors and bunker troons in the NFL game thread
>>152902206Bron da goat.
Hello. I haven't watched the NBA or posted in /nba/ for a few years now. It's just come to my attention that Ben Simmons is out of the league at 29 years old so I am here to take my victory lap over all of the Simmo fags from back in the day. Top 5 all time bust, just as I called it when he was drafted.
>>152905754his back is 67
>>152905754>The Nets don’t have their pick next year.Which is why they want to trade him while his value is high. Get some more picks back.
>>152906688MPJ value is at an all time high, Nets aren't winning shit next year anyway so either way they should strike while they can. Are any future Warrior picks tradable? That would be as valuable as the Bucks picks
>Michael Porter Jr. (rest) listed out for Sunday.IT'S FUCKING OVERNETS LEGEND 2026-2026 MICHAEL PORTER JR
>>152906154he sucks and is out of the league, but he's not even close to an all time bust, he's a 3 time all staroff the top of my head-> Anthony Bennett>Greg Oden>Markelle Fultz>Kwame Brown>Aytonall first overall picks with worse resumes
He'll be in the Nets history books with less than 30 games played
>>152906858MPJ is going to a contendor and carrying them to another rang. Not good for Chokic's legacy
I wonder if Ice Spice will relocate to San Francisco
Will this retarded jeet every stop spamming about MPJ
MPJ gonna be like Schroder last season. Looked great on the Nets and then like trash on his next team.
>>152906929Klay going back to GSW too. They will be the splash lightskin triplets
>>152906760They do. So i guess kuminga can be the nets tank commander
>>152906970I never saw schroder break nets records or be the hottest dude on bet apps
>>152907033MPJ best fit is on the warriors so I would demand at the very least, Kumnigga and one of those picks. In the end Scam Johnson goes for a good young player and two of the most valuable picks you could get. What an insane front office if they pull it off
>>152907102Kerr would have an aneurysm as MPJ regularly breaks his beautiful system hunting his shot
>>152907042that's because schroder didn't have the greenlight
yall gona get rugpulled when mpj and ja swap. mpj is gonna hate his life going from new york to fuk memphis
https://x.com/dfavors14/status/2010086096093544812NBA is terrible
i already know that fukhead memphis gm wants to pair cam spencer and mpj like some knockoff splash bros
>>152906688Nets already have plenty of assets, they lack players. Just bring dogshit for a year with even a lottery pick to show for it isn’t much fun for anybody.>>152907151I think MPJ proved in Denver he was coachable.
That was a waste, I would save all my challenges for the second half.
>>152907542no shot this dude is watching niggaball over the playoffs
How tf are the Heat down by 20 in the first quarter?
I still can’t believe how much the new CBA fucked the league, with the 90% rule and the aprons making it incredibly hard for teams to do any trades. I miss the league being fun.
>>152907151Kerr's having an aneurysm right now trying to keep a straight face while saying what happened is a murder.
>>152907501mpj regularly broke the shit denver was doing trying to hunt his shot. Rarely happened in crunch time though so that's a positive
>>152907566but they're both niggaball
>Fweeeet!! >you're ejected from the game for making finger guns>yes, you, the guy I'm making finger guns at>don't try and act innocent, finger guns are banned from all NBA events and venues, no exceptions Why are reffies such hypocrites about the finger gun issue?
>clips getting murdered by the Motor City Cruise
>>152908218let me guess zubac is on the floor
>>152908218robinson going off
i just saw zubac screen kawhi at half court. hes such a moron. bench him then trade him.
>>152907151
Wemby time
Jaylen finna show that freak what a real mvp looks like
Hugo looks like a terrible AI render of an underwear model
whiteboy tryna sneak a lob pass GOAT Kornet lmao
The Heat are dogshit just tank already, it's sad to see
Why dont they just announce the mpj trade already. Why wait
Why is Champanny taking all the shots for the Spurs
>>152908886I don't know but he helping my Celties
>>152908886he's been on a heater for like 2 weeks
>>152908311poor fella is doing anything just to stay in the team
J B43
Walsh's defense looked good on Wemby.Maybe you just have to put defensive small forward wings on him and accept that he will get a few dunks
Pistons looking incredible even with Cade/Stew/Duren even though no one can buy a jumper. Defence is incredible. Deepest team in the league,
>>152902206>jordan edition
Wembust getting cooked by Hotep
Kino stepback 3 by Brown
>>152909067They're like OKC but more likeable. Cade is better than FTA too so he would deserve praise for making a finals
>>152904445That's how it should be but it's the NBA. It only takes one retarded owner.Can't wait for Washington to commit $150 mil a year to the Trae Young / Ayton combo until 2031
>>152909115It still makes me laugh how bad they were 2 seasons ago with Killian Hayes and Livers were starters. Monty was a basketball terrorist
This Luke Kornet tribute is making me emotional bros....
he played there for like 2 years. This soft ass shit needs to stop
>>152909194You get players like Bam saying he thinks his mid ass team can win a chip but Cade meant it when he said this. I think Pistons are one big move away from being a Denver tier team
>>152909322He spent like 5 years in Boston.
Holy shit Harrison Barnes is still in the league?
>larden
>>152909272Kornet was the best, glad someone gave him a good contract, he deserves it. fuck horford tho, fag leaves every time it gets hard and goes to the celtics worst enemies. yet he gets a pass for some reason.
The Spurs need guards who can shoot.
FUCK the Dallas Mavericks
>>152909384
Wemby should put some arch on his jumpers.
>>152909327The problem is they don’t have a clear position to upgrade. They could do with a second ball handler and more shooting though but it’s not clear who that player would be.
are the pacers...dare i say it...back?
>>152909482They are starting Duncan Robinson surely it's possible to upgrade the Pistons.
Lol Wemby is so fucking overrated offensively whenever he goes up against a defender who actually tries, while being strong enough to keep him from pushing them into the basket.Which means, that Wemby is a glorified play finisher who can shoot sometimes.I wouldnt be critiquing him like this if not for the insane narratives we were seeing early season of "GUARANTEED GOAT! LITERALLY TRANSCENDENT!! ALREADY TOP 5 PLAYER!" lol no, even if Wemby had played every game he wouldnt be above Steph. Also Wemby is 100% more carried by his team than a lot of players. I dont deny his impact, but dude can legit score like 16 points in a game, with 2 assists, 1 offensive rebound, and just focus on defense, and win a game.
>>152909482bro tobias harris
>>152909592He's a lesser Chet and the end of the day
>>152909592trvke
>>152909592He'll be fine once he becomes a full grown adult and gains some muscle mass.
Damn, Wemby got cooked by PP
Pooper Fagg, 1-6FGs 2 points, -12 box in 11.75 minutes of play
>>152909652pritchard just cooked him
Prit-Chad making Wemby look like a defensive liability.
>>152909693and thats how he does against a sub 500 shit tier eastern conference lottery team
What if it's OG and picks for MPJ? OG has been getting worse every year.
>>152909388>and goes to the celtics worst enemies.nigga how is the warriors their worst enemy? warriors dont even think about the celtics, they faced you once, curry dissected the entire offense with one of the weakest teams of the 2020s to make the finals, and that was it. if i were a celticer, id respect the warrgods for being a good challenge and having the honour to give currgoat the best competetion of any team to win a championship in the 2020s so far, and his 4th ring which was long overdue (he should have 6)
Lamelo, Ja, Trae. One has been traded, one seems to be traded next. Will Lamelo survive the deadline?
>>152909815man currycels are embarrassing
>>152909820We'll take Lamelo if you take quickley
>>152909592are you just now realizing this?
>[Charania] The NBA has suspended Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder for three games confronting and attempting to strike another player 40 minutes after Kings' loss to the Lakers in Los Angeles on Dec. 28.
Wembii unironically being outplayed by the other team's backup center again. The Wembii meme is over, he sucks, just another useless Manute Bol, except shorter. But at least back in Manute Bol's day the league didn't promote him as the next great thing, everyone knew he was going to suck and be nothing more than a useless gimmick player. The Eddie Gaedel of the NBA
>>152909878Why are German people so violent?
>>152909878??? why are they just now suspending him
>>152909878That's modern day slavery...

>>152909992Mavvies are tanking. Y'all won't besughing when he has Darryn Peterson passing him the ball next season.
The lack of Devin is really hurting the Spurs' offense
>>152910035Be laughing*
>>152909878I bet it was Lebron.
detroit needs another offensive piece so bad. really stupid front office not wanting to make any trades. they'l be the hawks of this year.
>>152908477>kerr bossing gaymond aroundmemes aren't funny if they have zero basis in reality

pistons learning it's a marathon not a sprint
Boston keeps attacking Wemby because they know he's tired. Pretty good strategy
>>152911631He's blocked like 5 shots.
>>152911658he won't block 5 more!
>>152911658Yes, but he's on the bench now. The few possessions before the timeout, Celtics scored on Wemby
Why don't niggas just bring a set of extra contacts instead of putting back one that's fallen on the floor
i like keldon johnson
The Boston media hyped up Brown to be an MVP candidate and he's been shit ever since.
>>152911686He's coming back in bro, Bosniggas better be careful.
How did the pistons lose that
Queta is really good. Celtics finally found their center replacement

Kino game by both teams. Feels like a chess game, both coaches keep trying to outcoach each other
would trae have been a good fit on the spurs? the rest of the team could pick up for his lack of d and would give them shooting and ball handling.

Wembanyama honestly might be top 5 for players whose stats don’t tell the whole story. His impact is insane.
>>152912692everybody who actually watches sees it. His self created offense is still meme but his defense and cleaning up a lot of shit is ridiculous
you know we're done right? not even the kings want quickley or poetl. not even the hawks wanted them. and we're the number 3 seed or some shit instead of tanking. we are so fucked.
>>152909090White Jordan, send him to Charlotte to link up with Knipple.
>>152912641Yeah way too many 3s in the modern NBA
Stephon sucks, BABB washout who can't shoot and has a low iq.
>>152909878Based Schroder doesn't play arround, about to lead the a slave revolt.
Clippers went from 6-21 to 15-23 and have an easy streak of games coming up
real talk tho who we taking in a Luka-Schroder fist fightLuka has 7 inches and like 100lb on denis but denis has crazy negro energy
>>152912554It's not like you get extra tank points for losing by 100 to a bad team it still counts as one L. The paying Utah fans in attendance need to throw shit.
>>152911835Playing against ROTY Knipple
>>152913007Whoever actually knows how to fight. My money is on neither knowing how to fight
>>152913007Luka would knock his lights out. He's a world class athlete so the negro muscle fibre and aggression isn't enough to get over the size mismatch
>>152912940cp3 was the problem
>>152913071Luka with one month of training would knock Schroder out brutally, even if he had like 5 years of experience. That level of weight and height while Luka is already muscular is insurmountable.
>>152913230Harden vs Luka charity boxing match would feed families
Doncic and Schroder jawed at each other during various points of the Kings' 125-101 loss. During a timeout, Doncic taunted Schroder, telling him he "should've signed that contract" in reference to the four-year, $82 million extension Schröder declined from the Lakers a few years ago. Forty minutes after the buzzer, Schroder went after Doncic, telling Doncic that he can't call him a "b----" on the court and pretend everything is fine off the court. The NBA ruled that Schroder attempted to strike Doncic. Lakers center Deandre Ayton tried to drag away Schroder from the confrontation while a stunned Doncic attempted to exit as security intervened. Schroder was eventually escorted to the team bus as Kings coach Doug Christie and several teammates sought answers about the sudden drama.
>>152911863IS THAT THE OREGON - INDY SCORE? LMAOOO

>>152913377euros should keep their petty beefs to fiba
>>152912394>10 TOUCHDOWNS IN THE FIRST HALF LMAOreminds me of GA Tech vs Cumberland
>>15291337740 minutes after the game is hilarious that dude was stewing
>>152913230That's retarded and shows me you never actually fought at a competitive level. The skill level of a guy fighting for 5 years makes him deadly no matter who he is fighting if the other person hasn't trained for long
>>152913578Rare case of a double KWAB for both luka and denis
>>152913578I got guys in /afl/ stewing for years. It's pretty pathetic honestly
>>152912752SA loses every time Wembiich starts. he sucks, he is a big worthless loser. SA should trade him while his stock is high.
>>152913594>That's retarded and shows me you never actually fought at a competitive level.If you don't understand how two ultra top 0.0001% athletes face off when one is double their size you should just shut up. Retard fucking manlet.
>>152912756quickley for garlandwho says no?
>>152913735the cavs LOL
>>152913427what are you crying about loser?
>>152913779cavs hate garland right now, hes super max, bad defensively, and "injury prone".also im pretty sure like a month ago, cavs literally said mobley is the only one they consider untradeablei believe cavs are dumb enough to make that trade, they probably feel content with mobley as their future
Once again Flagg & Knipple play on the same night and once again Flagg plays like shit and Knipple plays like the best player in the league just about. >Flagg 30%FGs, 11pts (he needed 3 FTs just to score 11) 5 turnovers and -14 box in blowout loss to a shit tier eastern conference lotto team in 28 minutes of play. Just about the worst line you'll see any time soon. Knipple 72%FG & 67% from 3, 12 points in only 18 minutes, no turnovers, 6 assists 3 steals. By the time Knipple was done kicking ass for 18 minutes the game was already a blowout and now they're played 30 minute of garbage time with Knipple chillaxing on the bench
-59 is actually insane
>>152914127it is worse than the all time holder, scoot, at -58
>>152914127LeBron...
>>152914127in 24 minutes? how is that possible?
LaMelo Ball is the fastest player in NBA history to make 800 three-pointers It only took him 260 games played but almost SIX yearshuh?
>>152913664>t. alcoholic who hasn't ran a mile in yearsDunning-Kruger
Why is Svi Mykhailiuk not getting minutes for the Jazz?
>>152915141They're blatantly tanking and resting him and Lauri
the nba is the worst sports league in the US and it isn't even close
lol
>>152915345It's true. I agree. If you said this 20 years ago I wouldn't agree though. I used to never miss any game that was on TV but now I only watch my team. The 3 point shooting, no defense and traveling bullshit is bad enough, but then you factor in foul baiting, load management and how the players literally cry about every single play it has become unwatchable even if your team is playing
Ainge is a criminal
LMAO I thought the hornets were statpadding but the starters only played 20 minutes. Even the garbage time crew were blowing out the jizz. Kevin Love on second suicide watch
>>152915533the pendulum will swing back
>>152902206I love the Portland trailblazers. I love the IDF, I love Deni. Deni please have sex with my wife!!!
>>152914127Beginning to think his brother is better
how is this shit real?
i think schroder can beat the shit out of doncic despite being much shorter than him, just my two cents
>>152915681
>>152915662sick of what?
>>152915872
>>152913578Chuka really got to him lmao
>>152915927performative rage
>>152915927Hes the only guy on the team that drives to the rim tho
>>152915747eh didnt okc lose by liek 70 pts before?
Boston gets jokob poetl and rj barrettToronto gets Jaylen Brown
So schroder never actually touched luka? Why does luka have refball off the court too
>>152916106Think he slapped Luka which caught him offguard. Nigga was holding that in 40 min after the game lmao Fat fuck got into his head too bad they suspended him Next game would have been a must watch.
yo wtf happened in the Hornets Jazz game lmao
>>152915652>>152915747BRUUUUUH AHAAHAHHAA
jazz are in that perpetual cycle of tanking year in year out
>>152914127this is the team okc barely beat that proved sga is mvp
>Lauri sat for "rest" to ensure the lost against their tank competition
as long as it's not hinkie doing it
Is Donovan Mitchell holding Darius Garland back?
>>152916470Yes perhaps they should trade mitchell away for rj barret
>>152916480I prefer Garland for Quickley.
>>152916470Yes
>>152916470they're holding each other back but Mitchell is more aggressive so he shakes out better
>>152916487Unexpected answer from the Aussie who doesnt know ball. I thought a Luka fan would be a PRA merchant that cant appreciate, 20/0/and like 7 because his value doesnt show up in the boxscore.He needs a big solo breakout, for the stat nerds (that also film study) to finally do a deep dive that shows his value.
>>152916497I think this is fair. But Mitchell got a top seed twice, once in 21, and another in 25, and while, yes the team dealt with injuries in 25. I feel like at that point, we know the cieling then. Besides, a solo Mitchell endeavor without Garland early season, was barely anymore succesful, so I dont know how much is Garlands fault
>>152916486Mitchell for rj would be a salary dumpGarland and quickley have the same damn near contracts and quickley is not as good as garland
>>152915927how antisemitic of him

>>152916509I value players who create shots and generate good looks in general, it's not about PRA as much for me. I also value Cade for the same reason although I like his game a lot more. Luka even though isn't great at defence still has a lot of versatility for his size, certain players he can lock up and he's good at helping. Just bad against shifty players. Garland cannot work with Mitch, and Id rather have Garland on my team if I had to choose. Also I think Mitch is as good as he'll ever be
There's just no fucking way this senile old man chooses 33 year old Powell over Herro right?
No bullshit who can stop steph, mpj, and a motivated butler and draymond
>>152916749Actually he’s choosing ja over herro
>[Owczarski] The Milwaukee Bucks are interested in acquiring Ja Morant and continue to show interest in Zach LaVineAnd this is the part where we start laughing
>>152916772Ja and Powell over Herro + an asset you can get for Powell is a downgrade in every sense
>>152916773taking risky swings on undervalued assets is how you can get rich
>>152916802Ja still has untapped potential, Lavine not so much
>>152916667Hm, im the same way. Maybe if you stop pushing retarded narratives that justify Luka abusing the rules that the retarded refs are mentally undeveloped like children to recognize the problem with. Then I can accept you as a ball knower.I was thinking about something a couple days ago, trying to rationalize why, when I watch Luka, and hes clearly skilled, and clearly puts up a lot of value on the boxscore. Why yet, he looks like hes hurting his team with his shot selection, or, not bringing the most out of his players. I've thought about this with other players too, its not just about "efficiency". I think of this with Durant too. These hyper productive self creators who almost seem to "incidentally" help their teammates, but not truly elevate them.I was going to try and discuss this here, but this place sucks for ball talk.Ill drop a hint where my thought started:Even if somebody scores 50 points. Your teammates still need to score 50 points as well. Once you realize that, and then realize the number of ways a teammate can score 20 points, or even 10 points. And then once you go beyond that, and realize the number of ways a player can score 50 points. You start to realize that basketball is actually more complex than it seems, and maybe one of the most complex sports.And all of this is without even factoring defense into the equation, because defense is so hard to measure impact wise. I've seen Rudy Gobert allow 50 points from one player while hes on the court. I've seen Wemby get 70 points dropped on him from Embiid. How do you value defensive impact, when one guy, no matter how good, cannot be everywhere the ball goes, especially in the modern NBA.After thinking about this, I started to value even more greatly, the capacity to not just assist teammates, but genuinely make them better. Minus the 90s where Jorgoat could just drop 30, get back on defense, and call it a day because of how simple illegal defense made defense
>>152916773Ja is a top 5 player in the nba. He tried for exactly one game this season, the first game where he dropped 40 or some shit, before the org pissed him off and he tanked his value so he could get traded for scraps.
Miami cant have ja cause we have ja
>>152916849>Ja is a top 5 player in the nba.hes not better than darius garland.
>Ja is a top 5 player in the nba
jamal murray is closer to top 5 than ja
preview of the college football Natty
>Ja is a top 5 player in the nba.
>>152916849Not even top 50 >>152916846I agree completely. It's as simple as "elevating" your teammates (which is the only way to reliably elevate your team's ceiling without star power) but there are a million factors going into it. Chemistry for one, is important. With Luka you see 50% of the potential DA (had) in a player like Hayes just pan out way better, and get elevated. Off court relationships are like this too, like with Jimmy you see how he's trying his best to get people involved and feel connection with him (assume this is at his best not being a diva). But these are little things when it's compared to the fact some guys just can't hit their shit. Luka generates the same quality looks as SGA and Jokic but isn't quite good enough at bringing a good game out of players he doesn't gel with, like a Jimmy, or a Steph or Jokic can do. It's why he looks way more selfish than he is, he feeds who can keep up with him, and ignores the people who keep fucking up the gold he is handing them. It's polarising. But honestly, Steph and Jokic have just as much of a chokehold on their teams even though these are way different players.
>>152916849>Ja is a top 5 player in the nbaLetting jeets on the internet has been a disaster
How did the Jazz lose by that much to the hornets? At home? They’ve actually beaten good teams , I don’t get it. Did Lauri and Keynote not play?
>>152917238Lauri, Nurk, and Myhailluk were out
>>152916849Leafs are not human
>>152917250Man, I don’t get how people are fans of tanking teams. Especially perpetually tanking/bad teams like the hornets.
>>152917286Being bad almost guarantees you top draft picks which gives hope for the future . Of course, that doesn’t always work out. Kings had top picks , drafted Fox, Haliburton, but fucked up with the bagley pick and don’t even have Hali or Fox anymore.
If winning a chip is a priority, and we want the Knicks to make bold changes, dealing Brunson for skill/size would be that way It’s never gonna happen, but the reliance on Brunson is the ceiling
>>152916849TRVKE
>>152917345How tall is steph curry again?
>>152916758Draymond
>>152917345The only upgrades from Brunson are Cade, Luka, and SGA, and they're all untouchable.
>>152917514A motivated draymond is one of the best players youll ever see. He’ll dunk, he’ll swoosh the three all net, he’ll get your best role player ejected.

Poor Washington Wizards fans, poor Trae Young, and poor us fans, cause the aprons are terrible excitement killers. It's a bad tax and ironic that CJ was a part of the deal lolI miss Gilbert Arenas.
If a quarter of your teams are 80% g leaguers then maybe your dumb fuck bald headed bird bitch ass et looking mother fucking commissioner should reduce the amount of teams there are
