What the fuck was Chris Paul doing to the clippers. We need the beans spilled
i think mike conley hasn't made that little floater since 2024
>>153022267Donovan Mitchell has been the 1 seed multiple times with a 60 win season and hasn’t been past the 2nd round in any of those. It’s him. He only gets a pass because he plays for a small market team (like Allen)
>>153022358Did they even cut him?
>mavs are way better without pooper faggLMFAOOOOOOO
>>153022267Girls look at me when like this I walk past them. What team do I support?
HAUSEGOD

Pistons 59 x 25 PacersHalftime
The Pacers scored 25 POINTS IN A HALF

wembgod destroying these fools
>>153023081can someone qrd me why pacers are an NBA finals team a few months ago and now they're like this? is haliburton seriously that good?
what do we think about jaylen durren?
>>153023045>>153023081Hang the banner, Detroit
>>153023488This question has been answered 6 million times, but you will 100% ask it again.
my wolvies are going to get blown out tonight
>>153023611I don't no life obsess over this board or every team in the league like your fat ass does
why th efuck is lebron on football night. silver should know how much lebron likes football. this league is a joke.
>no Tatum>no Haliburton>Knicks are still ASS
>>153023488This game they just tanking >>153023565Without injuries and with a capable center i think they would still be fighting for play ins, but yeah Haliburton makes a bigger difference than i expected
>>153023688>how come the team that has their entire starting 5 injured is not as good as they were last season???https://www.google.com/
how'd atlanta get so ass from trading a player who wasn't playing
>>153023081the humiliation tour is so bad. at this rate they should be playing without pants and letting fans laugh in shame. make haliburton watch on a mobility scooter too
>>153023812they haven't been out all season retard
Nuggets lucked outThey get to play OKC without Jdub twice next month
>>153023869What injury?
>>153023946Left the court with a hamstring injury.
what the hell
>>153024140Why did you cut the points?
>>153024190hauser was 8 for 10 from 3
>constantly benches the best player in the 4th quarter no matter who it is that game>says "it's unrealistic to think we have any chance of competing anymore"what the fuck is his problem?
>boston AT atlanta>celtics merch everywherehuh?
Shai limping now too seasons over
Lakesissies...your response???
>>153024190
the nfl playoffs have been garbage. historically the nba playoffs have always been worse so this year is going to be mega terrible. im projecting another rigged OKC win over some shitty east team like the cavaliers
Luka not playing tonight
>>153025249Luka had 4/4/2 and a block in 12 minutes
>>153024549They turned off his refball so he decided to fake an injury so he can act like the loss somehow isn't his fault. LeBitch & Gayson both pull the same bullshit constantly
>>153022176lol, this.to be fair, they traded trae more for monetary reasons.
If Brunson died in a tragic accident tomorrow, does he make the HoF? Two all-star, two all-NBA second team, an NBA cup and two NCAA championships
>>153025327>does he make the HoFNope.
>>153025327maybe as a pity vote
nuggets are cooked
>>153024339kerr is a fraud
Of course these Laker tryhards rest their starters against the Blazers so they can play against us. Every team in the league treats us like its game 7 of the finals
embiid finally met his match
>>153025359>>153025386He’d almost certainly make it if it hadn’t died saving an orphan.
Kek Why the fuck is not even a full year of NBA experience rookie Will Richard getting 18 minutes as the shooting guard on this team wtf???? Is Melton injured?
>>153025680kerr without steven is like gaymond without steventhey're both gonna retire with him
lets on wuffs
Last time nuggets won against the wizards was 22th February 2024
don't sleep on these nuggies, bwosremember, jokic is not playing, meaning they are even more reliable in the clutch nowtrust
Knipple is clearly a lot better than CurryKnipple shooting 62%/75%/100% & 21ptsCurry 60%/33%/0% & 14pts
#pwatsupremacy
FUCK YOU GAYBE
>>153024608just stop fouling
>>153024608Looks like a pretty weak correlation there
>3 straight possesions taking freethrows in a row. No not 3 freethrows in a row, 3 different possessions taking freethrows in a row
Gabe vincent is so kino
My hospital Lakies might be in trouble tonight.
ANT 50 piece
Twolves are a low iq team lmao, literally coast straight off of shotmaking and thats it. Explains why they get blown out in the playoffs against teams without garbage defenses.
>falling for the slow motion Maxi Kleber pump fakelol lmao
why does jokic keep putting on such overly expensive suits?he's just sitting on the bench, lmao. that isn't doing anything to help team morale
>>153026294sounds like ur typical daryl morey teams
>>153026345lil midget hatin on a man dressing nice lmao
Josh Allen KWABOTY lock? Who can beat him this year in the NBA playoffs
Ill give Ant his credit, as flawed a player he is, he has a way of making shots in the clutch
Guys I just want everyone to know that Lebron is playing basketball while old.
Is Ant the most clutch player currently?
>>153023488hali is one of the most underrated players in the league impact wise. he is top 10 in most advanced stats.
fuuuck
lol, wolves are such fucking retards, how do you tip a rebound like that instead of catching it. almost forgot this team has no real bigs.
holy shit ant. 85 foot shot
Ant's best game was wasted. Sad
whoa the lakers actuallygood when pooka isn't in the game? such a surprise
what lil TImme gon do?
>>153026397The fraud ass Knicks and Spurs. Neither of those chump ass teams is making the Finals
>the fucking state of mikal bridgeskeep mpj in ny, everyones happy
>>153026244>t. gaybe
Chet sold
LOOOL CHET WHAT A BITCH
Chetty Spaghetti
wait... washington is the nuggies' kyprtonite now?
the actual fuck is norman powell doing
who the fuck is drew timme
bronny buckets in the game with his bum ass father
My hospital Lakies are running the offense through Timme what the fuck is this timeline
wow I thought it was 122 okc. why the fuck is the heat logo blue?
>>153026520I 100% agree with you, but if youre using this as evidence, its pretty bad.The pacers started off last year bad WITH hali, and they were all mostly healthy from the start.Pacers are missing way more players, even now theyre still missing Obi Toppin, which matters when he was getting big minutes last year, and especially with Myles Turner gone, no matter how shit you think he is. And they were missing far more players earlier this season.Somebody also told me theyre 100% intentionally tanking, and while I just dont believe in tanking, it just doesnt make sense to me for players to try less hard. The "out for rests" to take off all their starters today is pretty suspicious, its rare, but makes the "theyre deliberately tanking!!!" narrative much stronger.
the fuck was that caruso
>>153022202The Rockets really miss Brooks. Sure they couldn't have forseen the FVF injury, and the salary match may have been more difficult, but the Rockets should have tried to ditch him and Green for Durant and keep Brooks. Durant is a lead with his play type player but he is not a tone setter or vocal/energy leader
are jamal and ag just holding back pwat at this point?too many iso players, too little space and time
>lebron father and son brickfest in a meaningless gameThis is what it was supposed to be before the fat european showed up
>>153027048Rockets overpaid Manleet
>>153024339If he could think rationally he wouldn't be a liberal faggot
somebody explain why the nugs' defense is worse without jokic?
>>153027110Jokic does all of the thinking for them
>>153027110it's not tho? they're putting more effort than ever now and have more succesful contests. only problem is the rebounding
>>153026724You were saying, jeet?
>>153027110Strawther is the team's worst defender and any game he gets playtime crumbles the defense
>>153027075a nice reminder that a 2nd option putting up buckets on a shit team didn't get good all of the sudden
wow Lakers are so much better without Luka
>>153027191the lakers look great out there, no one told jj to put bronny james into the game. are you even watching the game?
Ain't no way this bawb named timme
How tf did the thunder lose to cryami
>>153027253>He doesn't know Big Timme
we could get the fabled 4 white guys + lebum lineup
>>153027075Hawks really traded their manlet for a bag of beans based on a 7 game sample size
>>153027223When did CJ put up buckets ever
>>153027254Jdub got injured in the first quarter, then Chet bricked a lob and then Caruso bricked an open 3 to tie and win the game.
lil Timme tryna carrying this bum squad
>>153027308he put up 46 against the hawks this seasonthat's probably when they got tricked into thinking he was good
Life for bronny sr without luka drawing triple teams constantly
>>153022202When are we finally getting a Jason WIlliams edition?
BIG Timme up next
>>153027394he's lookin like bronny jr without Luka spoonfeeding him
>>153027365kek that's hilarious. he's still only averaging 19 for the season. hes a bum and always been a bum
>>153027394he just took the technical FT to stat pad up to 3 points
nobody really talks about the fact that Devin Booker can consistently be a complete shit player, whos shit at handling the ball, shit at driving, shit at shooting the 3, okay at passing, but a completely reactive pass, and is carried by freethrows...so that none of his inefficiencies "matter". usually this season hes carried by his teammates too, but everyone was shit this game. the knicks were just shittier.
fuck you GAYBE
>>153027075Trae Young Won
>>153027354>and then Caruso bricked an open 3 to tie and win the game.It wasnt open you fucking retard, the pass was low, and his release time is unbelievably slow, so if he has to bring the ball up to his shooting position, then by the time hes at the release point, the defender will have enough time to recover and contest, and thats exactly what happened.do you even watch ball? retard
>>153027600Anything to put the blame on the white man. We saw that attempted flop offensive foul too shaisisters.
>>153022267Josh Allen:>guy who gets blamed for his team constantly coming up short even though he's the only reason his mediocre coaches and teammates even got that farNBA equivalent = LukaMatt Stafford>Oldfag who had to leave his original team to win a title.

>got my 10 nigga shiet
Now THIS was gambling
>>153027911looks like day trading to me
>>153027911why not just moneyline some freebie wins at like -1100 odds for the same roi with way less risk if ur gonna wager 3k
>>153027772nigga are you retarded? i literally implied it was a bad pass from shai. who the fuck do you think passed the ball to caruso?i dont blame him too much for the bad pass because it was a pass out of a double if im remembering correctly, but it just is what it is, they lost a coinflip match
THJ on a min is such an insane contract
are the nuggies restricting pwat's playmaking to de-value him and make it easier to resign him in the offseason? why hasn't he gotten any touches this game?
>>153027998Actually it's called pathetic ring chasing
>>153027998the nba underrates solid vets in favor of young bums with "potential"
>>153028034why would anyone go to denver to ring chase?no, don't even mention 2023 because that was all a sham
>>153027998He shit the bed in the finals and his stocks plummeted
Nuggets will finally break their streak against the Wizards. They really do play better without Jokic.
>>153027970Because I live for the thrill.[spoiler]I've actually only done that twice now, both on Oklahoma. Made a quick hundo profit in two seconds[/spoiler]Do not recommend. But what a rush
>>153028034>>15302806695 year old deandre jordan got a ring from jokebitch meanwhile Blake Griffin and CP3 still dont
>>153028089this desu
>>153028066He had a good year with Detroit, broke some franchise playoff record splashing 3s, then decided to go to free agency to sign a vet min with Denver instead of extending with Detroit cause he wanted to ring chase. Denver has the best player in the world Jokic and they just went to 7 with OKC.
word on the street is qokehead quinn snyder is gonna get got for the gm fucking the team up by trading for cj
>top four picks from 2021-2024>not a single superstar from the buncheither stone is dogshit at drafting or ime udoka is dogshit at development
JUST
Best Canadian guard in the league
>>153027784>Purdy>guy who was drafted about 200 spots too low and became infinitely better than anyone ever thought>Jokicthey were both drafted low but thats basically where the similarities end purdy is a system guy and like a high end game manager while jokic is jokic
chokebitch about to get traded for rui hachumura and some bricks
>Tim hardaway jr and Jamal Murray combine for 72Every Jokuckold narrative has fallen apart the second he is injured its actually insane
When Timme and LeBum are on the floor, it's Big Timme's team.
lebum's gonna try to stat pad a triple double in the 2nd half
I really wonder how Nuggets will play when Jokic comes back. The current system they're playing in seems so much better than Jokicball at getting the bench players involved.
>>153028309>lebumthe blazers have 27 fucking free throws at the half and theyre only up 10
Reaves was holding the team together. Unironically it goes AR>Luka>Lebron.
jokic in street clothes and still got guys obsessing over him #noticing
>>153028376He makes 'em seethe
>3/12LeGOAT is washed......
When the fuck did Jrue Holiday come back
Marcus Smart can't win with these cats
>giannis kicked jrue off the team>now he's not demanding anything or any trades when hes stuck with kuzma and myles turnerfucking bum
>>153028484triple double into the "despite the loss muh heckin trippie dubbie" is on the way
Clingan is tough. Dude is built like a mountain
>OKC lost to Miami but all the posts itt are jokic seethenooticin...
if jokic played this game, he would have chucked up 3s that he knows he wouldn't make
There were humans that wanted Jamal traded for Lavine
Maybe if FTA passed the rock instead of backing his ass into his man to farm free throws the homo would have beat the Mid Cryami Weap
>>153028484he finna get that 2014 kobe experience
>>153028628Puka literally lost to the Kings and bucks sybau
Shai only had 13 free throws, he needs more help
>>153028530im not with the deets, did gianngoat not like jrue personally or something?
Denver's next 5 games (without Jokic)>Hornets at home>Lakers at home>@Wizards>@Bucks>@GrizzliesIf they somehow go 3-2 here, they'll finish as 2nd seed
>>153028699He only has All-NBA dub, DPOY leader Chet, breakout season Ajay, multiple All-Defence players, the refs bailing him out, an ugly wife and no motion. Silver needs to give him more gibs pronto
How long is LeWashed going to keep this going?
>>153028623sounds stupid and redundant with mpj, and even just thjalso murray is legit like one of the best pull up jumpshooters since 2020. the stats are legit insane when you look at it
uh oh bawb melty
>blocked by jamesluka could never
>leFlop
why is /nba/ dead the lakers are on
>>153028918
BLOCKED BY JAMES
>>153028937but muh lebron
>>BLOCKED BY JAMES
>>153028937without Adou, lakers are worthless
lebron says it's not his fault his biceps are so big, what a retard
My analysis for this game is i think Lakers' chance of winning this game has become increasingly difficult.
>>153022202A bald man's league.
Adelman jr is a good coach like his daddy
>come on u guys i just need 3 rebounds and 3 assists then espn can write fanfic about how i had an amazing game
Vegas making TONS of money with Denver
>>153029035Anything to stat pad a meaningless scheduled loss so he can blame his teammates after it
Player age >36 years old should no longer be eligible for supermaxThey rarely play more than 70 games anywayThat should be in the new cba
>>153028252Timme looks great on offense. 3 point shooting has improved. Hes not good on defense though and he get out rebounded by more athletic big dudes very easily.
>his fucking lakies>le fucking beta>bronny
how does cant keep losing games
My Lakies are the worst team in the league without AR. He's officially the superstar in the league with the least amount of help.
how did betskitz do today
I'm the whole fucking team
As I'm typing this the alcohol shakes are kicking in. I ordered some voodoo ranger 9.5 abv so make me feel normal as the Adderall kicks my liver around for a bit. I need to withdrawl like $20 more onto my robinhood app so I get bet but it's not like gay kalshi betting, it's different. They said the pharmacy doesn't have 30 capsules so I told that gook bitch to fuck off and she offered me 15 of the available stock. So I'm snorting amphitheaters wishing my hands weren't shaking and the Rockets make their fucking three point shots.
>>153022202you guys made the front page
>>153029569you got like 5 years left tops on this earth dawg
The jew york knickerbockers are the laughingstock of the league
>>153029707They have secret jew tunnels in their city it's unreal
>>153029543Fierce fucking tomboy warrior
>>153029569AI slop
Wemby gonna reach Giannis-tier if he keeps playing at this level
>>153029818Best prospect since Luka. Wembert a fucking baller.
>>153029625SHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!
>mfw when im the only super intelligent sophisticated ball knower here that watches entire replays to break down what makes good basketball players/teams and it has almost led me to abandoning stats entirelybasically, until an advanced stat captures the value of darius garland offensively and puts down the value of players like peak harden, and luka, dmitch, brunson and probably more im forgetting, im not trusting them
>gaybe somehow manufactures the team leading +4 in the L despite being dogshithow does he do it
>>153029818damn every advanced stat still loves Jimmy
>>153029869He played like dogshit and +/- is a meme
If you're the hornets do you move off lamelo? He just isnt a winning player
>>153029955Yes but also he has 0 trade value so you'll have to suck up a Trae Young tier trade
>>153029936yeah, its pretty retarded, advanced stats have very clearly never watched jimmy play defense on the warriors.
>>153029978I'll trust the >advanced stats of a fucking leaf any day
Why were both centres out for the lakers? What even is this team?
>>153026233that's only 2 possessions in a row...>OKC 2 FT>Heat miss layup>OKC 2 FT>Heat make 3>OKC make 3>Heat miss 3
>>153030069everyone is injured
>>153030118oh yeah, youre right i misread
Stephon Castle and Harper are dogshit busts, why can't they be like Kon, Cooper and Reed?
>>153022267luka if you ignore the lack of mvp
>>153025757Allen and Biid both got undeserved, pity MVPs, but at least Allen is an iron man, and made the third round a couple times
>>153030489They probably drink too much lean and think about guns during practice
Yeah I'm thinking Denver wins the ring this year
>>153030828I can't put my finger on it, but you're right. It seems that Castle and Harper are just lazy and have a bad attitude as well. They could learn a thing or two from Kon Knueppel about cleaning up and acting right.
>>153029625kekI was told riggedball was a bigger sport
>>153030968Clearly Wemby doesn't set a good example. They needed a better role model like Jokic, Markkanen, or Luka. Sad.
>>153030980what is "riggedball"?
Why are the Celtics not as popular as the Lakers when they are more successful?
>>153032386The Lakers are soulless and Americans love that
Are we gonna discuss the mavs raping the second pooper fag is off the team? Who even drafts a white person as first pick
>>153032470No one likes you, jeet
>>153032559O little boi still mad over getting ran out and embarrassed for not knowing anything about basketball
>>153032576Who are you talking about?

>HIS LAKIES>LEOLD>LEBITCHMADE
>>153027772One of the more retarded replies I’ve read on here
The Lakers were so good before bron started playing. JFC. Dude's a goddamm albatross
Which teams do we have any faith in their ability to build teams around their star draft prospects? Harper on thr Spurs is ez as it’s done. Mavs have no picks ever so Flagg is fucked. Edgecombe is productive now and Sixers have Maxxey who is kind of on the same timeline to play for the next half-decade plus so thst’s fine even as the front court becomes increasingly embarrassing, I have no faith in either the current Hornets or former Hornets to do anything competent. Jazz might decide to try and win games at some point but also might not. Everyone keeps hyping half the Blazers and they keep being aggressively mediocre. Wizards/Suns/Nets picks are role players so who cares.
>>153033464and thanks to the fucked up CBA and the incoming free agency which is filled with utter dross, i doubt they can improve their roster that much even after ditching his contract. their best chance is probably Pwat only if he refuses his extension.all the good players have been tied down with longer contracts and what's left is probably a bunch of uncs.
>>153033474Mavs could get some picks if they deal AD and Kyrie but they won't.
>>153033536Not good picks… then you have to ask yourself if it’s worth it.
Daily apologies to Thibs
