>jordan 11show come lebrons never became as big as jordans?
>>152982422why did the nba fall off after the 90s?
why are women like this?
>>152982433they should allow handchecking again
>>152982422What happened to the “Jokic has no help” narrative?
>>152982438they do. did you not watch okc in the playoffs?
>>152982433The NBA itself was shit during the 90s, Jordan just carried it but y’all not ready for that conversation.The NBA nosedived in viewership and ratings in the early 00s despite the threepeat and it was the same game and style Jordan played
>>152982448lu dort and fucking caruso
>>152982441Dead. Along with Jokic MVP odds.
can't believe jokic will just coast til the end of the season then he'll just collect his 2nd ring before completely vanished until next november
>>152982441we on to Mike Malone was a retard narrative
>>152982448Stay salty, jeet
>>152982441>>152982466
>>152982448ok
Suns billie
why tf does max christie have a twin brother
How long until Jokic is back? 2 weeks?
>>152982482>suns get better when KD leaves#noticing
>>152982489jordan ott had the cavs winning 60+ games
do the clippers seriously blast tupac after every game. kino
>>152982489dillon brooks is actually good. remember when dray told him the grizzlies dynasty started after him? lol what 4 years can do
>>152982441>>152982475malone never tried to develop the baby birds. adelman has and it has been fantastic
So when’s shams gonna announce that Ja to Miami trade? Also how does weapschizo feel about this?
>>152982497clippers are trying to buy into the hood part of LA. a couple years ago they had those cool black unis with the LA font
>Jamal is averaging 28.6ppg after Jokic's injury
>>152982523he makes the all star game right?
>>152982509I feel like this a reason. Malone is in that old school group of coaches that wanted nothing to do with a players development. Like Larry brown and Doc rivers
>>152982511Shams is on fraud watch. He cant report what ever he wants since he as not competition. Remember that fake nurkic trade be posted?
>>152982509I'm pretty sure their entire team being out with injuries is the cause of that. Adelman was doing the same thing Malone was doing when he had all his starters.
>>152982532sadly the israeli bots disagree with you
had to block someone on twitter today. a spurs fan
>nuggets are back being 2nd now despite no Jokic
>>152982532As an injury replacement yes
>>152982549SOFT
>>152982549Why?
>>152982441p wat has been real for them. interesting to see what they do cause they have to drop someone to pay him
YNR booth giving naji that contact that you literally can’t trade
>>152982585what was he thinking? like actually
>>152982585he has some actual value nowadays, i'm thinking nuggets can trade him for a couple of picks but for now they don't have anyone fit that can remotely rebound so he's still staying
>>152982549Pussy

>>152982607Miami vs Boston would have done numbers last year or two years ago.
>>152982608if hes so good, why is he ringless?
>>152982618jews rigged it cause they liked the lightskin better
>>152982618Curry warriors denied a lot of good teams rings. Too 3 rings from bron, and dropped harden and westbrook from winning as well.
>The city of Austin Rivers
>>152982618
>>152982641damn im old cause I remember watching his HS mixtapes.
>>152982617Is weapfag alive
The east is wide open bros. I think we do it. I think we trade for AD with a quickley package.
>>152982655no
jorgod...
So what’s NBA vs world gonna look like?
>>152982422>hornets retire a number as soon as Jordan leaves Why did Jordan never want to retire numbers? Its not like the NFL where it’s rare to do so.
>>152982592He was deep in his war with Malone at that point. Booth gave Nnaji that contract to force Malone to play him but what Booth didn't count on was just how stubborn Malone could be.
>>152982676>He was deep in his war with Malone at that point. Context? Drama in Denver?
>>152982658Trading ass for ass.
good night, bulgariaLORD
>>152982685How do you trade ass for something good?
>>152982675cause of his ego.
>>152982685Kek
>>152982691Why would any team willingly trade for AD in 2026?
>>152982699AD is like that nice used car in the lot. Looks great, can buy for cheap but has a bunch of issues. Every year a new owner buys it and returns it a month later.
>>152982704this something my dad would say
>>152982710Your dad is based then
>>152982680booth drafted a bunch of guys but never made good moves for vets (deandre jordan (vet presence but not a good backup and dario saric) so malone thought they were all scrubs and never wanted to play anyone. malone was jaded and thought his starting crew could get it done so he was lowkey prepared to go the Thibs route and run them into the ground. fast forward to the 2024 playoffs and in game 7 of the timberwolves series, only jokic and murray had double digit points. fast forward to the next season and malone refused to play strawther or pickett or nnaji even though the moves for cam johnson and hardaway were already being investigated
bam
>>152982699Because even an AD that doesnt play is better than quickley. And if he does play he’s 100x better than quickley.
>>152982726>AD that doesnt play is better than quickley. best ability is availability.
Lotta talk about how the Nets won the MPJ trade, but his game is replicable in players like .. Peyton Watson. It’ll be interesting to see what MPJ returns in a trade, if any team wants him.
>>152982731No, the team is literally better when quickley doesnt play
>>152982732MPJ is better than Watson. Don’t let a couple good games fool you
>>1529827411. your wrong 2. you'd give up picks for AD 3. AD is not worth trading for
>>152982422Jordan da GOAT
>>152982745You didnt refute his point at all anon...
>>152982732MPJ has been throwing hard for over a week cause hes crying over having to leave ice spice. MPJ is better than Jordan. Dont compare him to Watson.
>>152982749I did, you just cant read, retard.
Mealanon to tismallah pipeline?
>>152982745Picks are worthless if youre not tanking, idiot
>>152982762mealanon has a job an actually stays in shape. tismallah lives in a homeless shelter and literally only exists to eat so hes kinda what mealanon could be at his worst.
>>152982760No you didnt retard
>>152982766Tell that to the clippers.

Status on Joe Cronin?
>lebron has multiple first ballot hall of famers as teammatesi sleep>jokic finally gets an all star teammate at age 30REAL SHIT
why arent bawbs here investing in him?
>>152982777? They made the playoffs every year retard
>>152982787Same reason why Americans didn’t accept tatum
>>152982791they missed it in 2022 and will miss it again this year, with a top 10 pick going to OKC.
>>152982732good job trying to revv leafanon
>>152982795jealousy?
>kawhi chucking like crazy>not passing the ball at all which is unusual>missing everything cause hes just chuking with no remorse>still blow out the wizardsNo team respects Washington kek
>>152982787Who do invest in. Those of us that watch ball
>>152982810ironic you post this cause Embiid hasn't made it past round 2 but tatum has a ring and bounced Embiid out of the playoffs. also has more rings this decade than KD and has belted giannis before.
>>152982807He’s asleep but he’s free (You)s
>ironic you post this cause
>>152982826I look like this, and say things like this.
>>152982433Jordan retired and they changed the rules to make it easier for the offense after the borefest of the 2005 finals. 70 points in a game 7 is not what people (casuals) want to see.
>>152982422Based edition
what were they doing to spida?
>>152982817Is Embiid still playing? He really stole Jokic MVP and dipped.
>>152982787his situation is shit
>>152982835how can he make a lay up with his eyes closed?
>>152982835Fingering his bootyhole
>>152982787What happened last time white people invested in a white player playing in Dallas?
>>152982842its human reflex. you can control it
>BUT DA 90S THO
>>152982847They won a ring
>>152982847He was rightfully traded. Cooper plays defense and isn’t fat so it won’t be an issue for him
>NBA PEAKED IN THE 90S LET ME TELL YOU WHY

>>152982887almost every player can play good defense, they just choose not to.
No good games on or football what should I do
>>152982894>Adelman promoted to head coach>team morale instantly lifts, they make an unlikely playoff run that ends in game 7 against the eventual champions in the 2nd round>competent GMs (two) hired in Booth's place, immediately start making smart moves >ironically bring in a bunch of veterans Malone would've loved to have.Now Malone sits at the cuck desk during ESPN games and has to listen to the other analysts praising the breakout performances of players that he couldn't inspire (Murray on all-star trajectory) or refused to develop (Peyton Watson, Zeke Nnaji etc).That's all I can remember off of the top of my head, I'm sure others can add details.
>>152982894holy fucking shit, jokic still won a ring with all this nonsense? god damn.
>>152982901I don’t matter to me cause I’m still getting drunk either way
>>152982910>getting drunk on a random Thursday nightalcoholic or unemployed? or booth?
>>152982896when u play defense u get fouls which gets u benched for foul trouble and also puts your fate into the hands of match fixers if you get to 5
>>152982915im off tomorrow and love maple liqueur. probably get drunk to the celtics game. could order take out as well.
>>15298290422/23 nuggets still had a good bench (and KCP was still usable), what happened after that was a travesty
>>152982901What the fuck am I looking at?
>>152982920>and love maple liqueurwhat the fuck is this?
>>152982904'23 was the last season before Booth went full retard and stopped cooperating with Malone on roster construction, they actually had a squad that could go all the way (and did). It was the next 2 years that were bullshit, where the nugs had to try and win with a roster that was getting weaker with each passing year. Hence their flameouts in '24 against the Timerwolves and '25 against the Thunder. They just didn't have enough guys, and the starters were gassed/banged up.
I don’t understand how people can drink alcohol. Shits liquid poison.
>>152982925you're mother.
>>152982904The 23 team was a beast wtf you talking about
>>152982938Not nice
>>152982903>(Murray on all-star trajectory)Murray was always good. He'll never get allstar considerations because the Nuggets are never dominant, only always good. And because 2nd options dont get appreciated, unless retarded normies KNOW they have to give them credit because theyre always associated with winning even if theyre not actually that good>see draymond green, but especially overrated klay thomspon
>>152982934trvke, i'm a muslim who tasted alcohol a bit and i totally understand why it's banned. taste like fucking shit and you only down it because you want to escape reality.

>>152982943the only player who can be compared to jamal murray is devin booker. and booker has already had all-star and all-nba nominations because he didn't play with a recent mvp
bro i completely forgot terry rozier existsthe gambling case really swallowed him whole
>>152983025Murray is much much better than Booker, based on what I've watched of booker lmao.Like significantly better. I dont think enough normietard fans realize this. The more closely I watch basketball, the more narratives I dissect, and from those dissected narratives, demand, new frameworks of understanding, and new frameworks of understanding, imply new values. And new values, tell me that Booker is not better than Jamal Murray.You actually described it perfectly, Booker was the "number 1 option" on a team that won the equivalent of 60 games like twice, and had just gone to a finals. He was getting Kobe comps, thats why I said, the nuggets never being dominant (dominant = multiple 55+ win seasons in a row) AND Murray being 2nd option, kills his all star considerations, even though hes been on that level
I wish I got to watch Hali last season. Seeing how fun its been watching Garland make offense easier for his teammates, it must have been another level with Haliburton, to actually see that occur, while hes the number 1 option, actually close to making a Cinderella run in the playoffs that would FORCE people to question the "le 17 point 10 assists player cant possibly be as good as le 30 point 5 assist player..." especially because everybody hated OKC enough that losers that would normally subscribe to that same "OMG HES AVERAGING 30!!!" narrative were bandwagoning the pacers.

Nuggets should try to scam some team with Peyton Watson at the deadline. He’s not actually good, just play finishing while Jokic is out.
>>152983267no ones giving up picks for watson especially when his contract is expiring tf
Is Benedict Mathurin good? Was about to make a point about how nobody talks about injuries on the Pacers side of that run. And how everybody pretends the 24 playoffs were shit because of injuries, but the 25 playoff injuries are like a side story that somehow doesnt ruin it until game 7 finals.But then I remembered that Mathurin basically didnt play that entire playoffs.Is he good? Did he fit the pacers system? Would he have made a difference?
>>152983277>Is Benedict Mathurin good?too immature. fails the character test. like ja
>>152982787he's out for the season
>>152983272Well he’ll be a restricted free agent so maybe some team will want the matching rights. Also it doesn’t necessarily have to be a pick, could be bench players on food contracts. Watson won’t contribute in the yoffs
>>152983338Good contracts
>>152983306for the entire season? doubt it

Pat riley has fucked up the heat for over 10 years. 4 of the last 6 stanley cups have been won by florida teams. Your team is in fucking miami, you should be getting all the stars. There’s 0 tax and and the hottest girls. I can already sense it hes about to fumble ja like he did lillard
>>152983685How do you fumble two bums who don't impact winning
>>152983704Is this bait? How do they not impact winning

>>152983726Wow good one retard
Kings need to move sabonis, keegan, and schroder right fucking now
>>152983685>I can already sense it hes about to fumble ja like he did lillardHe didn't fumble Lillard though, Lillard went full retard and tried to strong arm them to send him to Miami by saying he would only play for them, which means that Miami had all the leverage in the world to send back absolute dog shit for Lillard.Regardless of trade value look at how the Trae Young trade was handled. His preferred destination was Washington and he landed there...not "I'll only resign or play for Washington, LA, or NY" like Liltard. He did all that yap about running from the grind and being loyal to the soil and then tried to run to a team that was in the Finals in 2 out of the last 5 years and then also tried to strong arm his team to where they wouldn't get any good offers because Dame wouldn't resign or play anywhere else. Portland wasn't about to let Dame fuck them in the ass on the way out like that which is why that retard ended up in Milwaukee instead.
