Why does coopgod miss every prime statpad opportunity. Imagine the avra he would’ve gotten for dropping 40 on Bron’s Lakers

I don't mean to counter signal the white race, but is Larry Bird overrated? I just don't see it when I watch him.
>>153421387>I just don't see it when I watch him.what is he lacking
>>153421412I don't see anything that raises him to top 15 of all time level. I'm not convinced he's better than Klay Thompson.
>>153421387Yes. He was also a chronic playoff dropper
Jokic has been kind of underwhelming lately, at least for his standards
>>153421424>I'm not convinced he's better than Klay Thompson.Actually Kill yourself immediately. I cant even take this seriously as a joke.
>>153421488He clearly rushed back from his injury to stay in the MVP race
>>153421424what did you watch
>>153421488 It’s over
Do we think anyone would trade for Pablo? He’s been holding Franz and Magic back for years already, I can’t bear to see it go on for much longer. Imagine a timeline where they were sensible and took Chet at 1
He's the best teenage player ever.Next season he will be 27/8/6 on 60% TS easy and a top 10 player.
>>153421673Needs to sort his shot diet out if he wants to reach 60% TS over a season. The floaters/short middies are a good counter but he’s been defaulting to it.
>>153421666I could believe a team as stupid as the kings and basically clippers alone trading for him, all the other shit teams dont really need him or have players who would make paolo redundant
>>153421713That’s the hope, Kings, Clippers, Pelicans, Bulls, etc. It would almost certainly be ‘selling low’, but it has to be done because Paolo can’t even scale down his role really (they’ve tried that this season, to an extent) because his off ball skillset is just horrendously bad.
>>153421666>Pablo?kek
>>153421387I mean, between 1984-1986 he was the best (offensive) player in the world. I personally think Dr. J was more important to the league, and statistically he was best obviously in the ABA so it’s kind of discounted by ‘NBA’ historians. Also prime Kawhi (in my opinion) may have been the most complete 2-way wing player everLeBron vs. Larry is tough for me though. Guess it depends on how you build the rest of your team.
ai posts outta control
>>153422060Drives me crazy on YouTube with the bot comments
Liking Jokic is racist ngl
people spend money on vpns for 4chan lol
>>153421686I'm sure he will. Trimming out some of the long 2's would help as well but he's always kind of had a thing for those shots though, even at Duke and in high school. His floater touch is pretty insane though, but some of his attempts are too off balance and wild, so he should try to cut those ones out. He's still learning. He also doesn't get the ball nearly as much as he should in transition. So hopefully they can draft a guard that can get him the ball in the right spots and help space the floor. Plus adding strength, some modest shooting improvements, and a better free throw rate / whistle should easily get him to 60% pretty comfortably and 63% or so is not out of reach if everything comes together. He's already at nearly 58% over his last 31.He's never going to be a downhill menace on the level of LeBron or Giannis, but he's going to be one of the most versatile and well-rounded scorers ever. For his age he's already remarkably efficient from every spot on the floor inside 16 ft, which is extremely rare for rookies. Guys like KD, LeBron, Tatum, Cade, etc., didn't have an efficient in-between game when they were young, and in many cases never really developed one. Flagg's overall efficiency still isn't outstanding though because he doesn't get to the rim as much as some other stars do. I think the floater range is ultimately going to end up being his bread and butter, like it is for Jokic. I've honestly never seen a player progress as fast as he has. He wasn't even really the main scoring option at Montverde. On team USA when he was 15 he was a role player defensive specialist with extremely raw offensive game. Even compared to his season at Duke, his scoring bag was much more limited, and he didn't have the kind of poise with the ball that he's showing now.
who else is excited to have doncic and jokic throw goofy lobs and fail to dunk and anthony edwards shooting lefthanded at the all star game and adam silver getting really mad that nobody takes his all star weekend seriously even though it's called the all star _break_ so it's basically a holiday
lebron james
If the Oklahoma City Thunder win their next 26 games they will tie the 6th best single season record of all time
>>153422659
>>153422539I want every team to just take half court shots
darwin ham was saying to his players"keep helping" and then someone "keep hoopin" so i think they misheard him but it worked in the end. ham seems like a nice guy that brings positivity that you want to play for though i'm a big ham guy
Why people keep saying Kobe is a ballhog when he already passed.
It's way too soon for Kobe jokes.They never land well.
>>153422152I mostly agree with all of that, yeah. The thing is, even with the floater touch being elite, it’s still just so much less efficient than a rim attempt. Jokic is probably the best short mid range scorer ever and even he capped out at around 60% there, which is equivalent to poor rim efficiency (on actual rim attempts, Jokic shoots like 75%). It’s just not viable to rely on those shots, even though he does shoot them relatively very well. Even at Duke, and this makes me confident that he’ll sort things out, his rim to non-rim twos ratio was about 1:0.7, so far in the league it’s about 1:1.7. He’s definitely been more selective with the shots he’s taking at the rim in the NBA, which explains the rise in rim efficiency and the harsh drop in free throw rate. The 3pt volume is also an issue imo, his touch is too good to not get a higher volume of threes up. I agree that the rate of improvement as a creator in the half court has been substantial, and honestly he’s overtasked in those situations right now, with Kyrie back/another handler drafted he’ll hopefully be able to be more selective with the his handler possessions. I do think that the driving is good enough to the make ‘point forward’ vision very much real, that’s why I hope that they don’t draft another low 3pt volume handler like Dybantsa or Flemings, it’ll just be redundant and hinder Flagg on and off ball. I want either a 3pt bombing guard with an off ball skillset (Peterson, Stirtz), or just a role player who can complement his offence and play defence.

Add Seattle, Las Vegas, Montreal, Vancouver, San Diego, Austin, Kansas City, and Tampa Bay/JacksonvilleGet rid of the draft.Institute an NHL-style cap system with a hard ceiling but complete flexibility with how players/teams structure contracts.>18-team Premier League4 games against all 17 opponents (68 regular season games)Seeds 1-4 play a round robin to determine final seeding, and winner gets the NBA Cup.Seeds 5-12 play Best of 7 first round of the playoffs.Seeds 15-18 play a Best of 7 tournament where winner stays in the Premier League and others are relegated.>20-team B-League4 games against all 19 opponents (76 regular season games)Seeds 1-16 have a classic playoff.Championship finalists are promoted, and there's a Bronze medal Best of 7 round for the third promotion spot.
>>153425468Interesting idea but no owner will EVER agree to relegation. A single year of relegation would lose massive amounts of money
Why are we adding teams again when half the teams cant sell out tickets for $20 and half are tanking instead of playing the game?
>>153420661can we range ban these idiots already
>>153419582my nigga
>>153425494First, a hard cap with flexible contracts is good for the owners. It makes costs more predictable, scraps max contract requirements, and should make dead cap negligible.68 regular season games, all of which matter, against good teams would make way more money for the 18 premier league teams.This draftless, two-tier system would also lead to prospects preferring to join B-League teams that have lots of cap space, can offer development opportunity, and playing time. That's good for owners as well-run organizations should reasonably expect to cycle into the (cheaper) B-League and then grow back into the Premier League. And you'd kind of expect teams like Kansas City, Vancouver, etc. to be perma-members of the B-League, but their owners are just happy to have a team.If New Orleans, Memphis, Sacramento, or Brooklyn complain, then you spit in their face and tell them to be grateful they're still allowed to exist.
>>153425613I'd prefer to fold six teams. But expansion into a two-tier league is more realistic.
>>153426321Whats that mean. Like nfl and nhl divisions to go to playoffs?
>>153420396>he has the same +- as austin reeves +2 you fag
The Nets traded Harden for Ben Simmons
called it >>153419905
>>153426568they both suck, just in different ways. harden statpads bigger numbers but at the expense of killing his team with turnovers, neither of them will ever be on a good team
no games today, what do I do with my free time?
Bronny gonna marry Kobe's daughter
Does any of Harden’s former franchises actually hate him? He’s been on 7 teams now and every single move and trade is like “ok fair enough makes sense”
•have a good team at the start of the season•intentionally tank anyway•other teams' GM will think you suck and are heading for the lottery•after about 20-30 games trade your draft pick for epic talent•win 50 in a row to end the season, make the yoffs•your draft pick ends up being 23ndepic trolled
>>153426536Folding six teams mean we get rid of six current franchises and go forward with a 24-team league. That'd be my preference, along with no draft and an NHL-style salary cap.A two-tier league means the NBA continues to expand and eventually splits into a first and second division with separate schedules, separate playoffs, and promotion/relegation.
if this jewdog retard silver actually commits to expansion on the eve of the arena deals in New Orleans and Memphis expiring, he's officially the worst commissioner in all sports.
>>153426846He was injured but he was cheeks in the finals. The heat had a legit chance at beating the nuggets
are the clippers blowing it up because they know Kawhi and the front office will be found out guilty?
>>153426995I dont think anyone has the balls to go up against steve ballmer bro.But the way kawhi is playing they couldve won the title so probably
Luka is the best player rn. Hes been better than jokic
>>153426635based Kobe is a gucci guy just like me
