>>154001415
>>154001467go ahead and prove it by naming the three players who are worse
>>154001496Sasha Pavlović, Damon Jones, old Big Z. LeBron took scrubs to the Finals, Kobe got taken to the Finals by Shaq
The wnba is back
>>154001354Jokic must have tons of rings with such gaudy stats and press/voter awards!
>*snap*>"adding this one to my delusional unc folder!"
kobe's horrible teammates were starting. and they're all 3 worse than ur players u desperately dug off of the far end of the bench.it's ok tho u tried ur hardest.
/tv/ is having a melty. Like 8 black Snape threads over there kek
>>154001464its over
>>154001546Wilt only had two, I think when it’s all said and done they’ll finish in the same B tier
>Jokic must have tons of rings with such gaudy stats and press/voter awards!
>>154001628We’re not allowed to post selfies here
>>154001664But I look like this.

For LeBron James, the court is his stage,Where greatness endures, through every age
>>154001824He’s so good that’s why they hate him self made billionaire black King who was never supposed to be here
So that's why Podz own team don't fuck with him
>only 3 games today and they're all shitman I don't give a fuck about college ball
>>154001902damn. fuck this nigga.
>>154001529He QT3.14
Test
>>154001976Knicks Hornets will be a hard fought contest because they're both in tight races for better playoff spots. And Pissstains Pels will also be tight because Detroit is collapsing and the Pels have been playing over 500 ball the past 10 weeks
>have to watch these tyrone who transferred north carolina tech college players play reckless ball that hurts my moneyball autist brainevery fucking march god damnit
>>154001692So yum!
Oddsmakers got the Hornies favored over the Kniggs tonight
Lukewarm take, with a second option as good as shitbaboon and third option as good as amen kwabson KD has zero excuses, doesnt matter if the bench is dead or not. Washed ass fraud. Gets his 25 points on decent efficiency and does fuck all after
yo im a sleepy ass nigga!
>>154002482Kobe...
>>154001692>So cum!
THE HOUSTON ROCKETS NEED A POINT GUARD!!! They decided not to draft a point guard when they picked Reed Sheppard - Shooting Guard over Stephon Castle - Point Guard who is currently leading San Antonio in assist/game 7.1. Castle would decrease ball handling pressure on Durant, Thompson, Sengun, and Smith. Late game turnovers and missed shots are mostly due to fatigue and opponents clamping down on the best scorers late in the game. To make things worse, Reed Sheppard shoots great against poor teams and poorly against competitive teams, going 3-13 field goal attempts and 2-10 from the 3-point line yesterday. His lack of defense also limits his effective minutes when he is not shooting well, unplayable with Sengun. Stephon Castle's DEFENSE allows him to get more minutes, along with his assists even if he has a poor shooting game, though he shoots 46.7% from the field and averages 16.5 points per game. Sheppard shoots 42.6% from the field and 13.5 points per game.
>>154002800Yes they were completely retarded to not trade for a point guard after FVV went down or sign anyone
>>154001467getting swept = made it work apparently according to bronsexuals
>>154002800people rightfully dogged on castle's shooting, but in the middle of the season he started improving his mid-range shooting, and over the last 20 games he's shooting over 40% from 3, so now he's a major fucking problem. it's likely that this never would have been brought out of him in houston anyway.
So how does this shit work with Seattle and Vegas getting a team? Do they get priority in the next draft? Preferential treatment of signing free agents?Also this means a team's moving from west to East, right? Have they confirmed who's moving over yet? I'm guessing it's Memphis or Minnesota, right?
>>154003608It’s pure insanity that anyone denies this dude is gay
>>154003608YN fruitier than Ja
trans rights are human rights
I wish I was dark skin black
>>154002413Charlotte is at home and both teams have been playing slightly over 700 ball the past two months
>>154003445There would be an expansion draft. NBA will work out the exact rules when it happens - it’s way way too early. They gave Bobcats the #4 pick last time.All this is years away and might not happen, the vote was just in favour of exploring the idea.
Let be real here. The rocket is strategic tanking. It's much easier to go through laker and spur than nugget and thunder in playoff
>>154004126>strategic tankingoh is that what i watched last night
worst thing to happen to the league was the owners giving more power to the players after the Sterling fiasco
>>154003608I actually like it
my bullies :)
I just looked up coby whites stats as 6 man on the hornets and nigga is balling. Why did the bulls give this guy up for a second rounder lmao
>>154004356sterling's opinions and behaviors were an open secret for decades. that whole debacle was just a manufactured pretext for ballmer to buy the team.
>>154004638They didn’t want to pay him in the offseason and want to properly tank
His ideal role is as a sixth man/off the bench. He probably wouldn’t accept downgrading on this team and there’s no way >we were going to pay him. Trading him was the right move.
>>154004638Same reason they gave up Ayo for Dillingshart
>>154003986Inceltic...
>>154003608This nigga zesty as hell
>>154004126>strategic tankinghttps://youtu.be/Ow_00e-61AU?si=7qX3vgO1uZ7TyC02&t=26
>>154004695https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhh_GeBPOhs
>>154004695yea but it ended up giving the players too much power
>>154001354Jokic should be working on his fifth MVP award but he got totally robbed in '22-'23. Ref-babby SGA will probably win this season.
This is bronnys future
>>154004974Jokic should be working on winning more games
>>154004974Chokic is the most overrated player in NBA history, even more than LeCancer. Shaq would demolish him
>>154005169Chokic should be working on not making his teammates worse. Everyone that leaves Denver gets better i.e. MPJ
>>154004974It’s crazy because SGA should be third in the mvp race at best. But really more like 9th or 10th.
>>154005464>first seed shooting near 50-40-90 with 67% TS should be 9th or 10thYeah ok dipshit
>>154005415nah you don't get it anon, getting 100 touches a game and statpadding is actually helping his team win! It'll definitely show it's value when the playoff teams take the ball out of his hands and the nuggets start running around like headless chickens and choke for the third year in a row!
>>154005884His scoring has taken a massive dip but his assists and rebounding have gone way up. How is he statpadding right now lol
>>154005974By continuing to play the most heliocentric system in basketball, that has shown time and time again to not work. No shit he's getting high assist numbers when he's getting the ball a full 100 times a game (30+ times more than SGA and 12 more than Luka).
>>154002482Blanket ass
>>154006058He's the engine and creating shots CONSTANTLY for bums like Braun. Do you even watch him? Who on the team would you rather handle the ball up the court right now?
After listening to a black woman (Draymond Green) I think Wemby should win the MVP
>>154006058Stay right there. Don't move. Smile. This one is going in my cringe leafs collection.
>>154006058Stop anon a bunch of people who never played organized basketball are going to tell you how important it is to fill up a stat sheet even though you lose the game
>>154006058BAWBs hated this one
>statpadding and dominating the ball so hard your teammate scores 50
>>154006375Just look in the mirror first. If you can't recognize Chokic's ball hogging costs his team games you are clueless and don't know basketball. You're probably the same clown who criticized Kobe for ball hogging
>>154006138>He's the engine and creating shots CONSTANTLY for bums like BraunIt's meaningless when you're creating a system that does not work in a playoff setting when teams sell out on taking the ball out of Jokic's hands. All it does it is make them reliant on bad basketball without having given other guys on the team (like Aaron Gordon, who almost always ends up becoming a tertiary playmaker anyways to take pressure off of Murray an Jokic) valuable reps and experience.
>>154006437>do a basic ass dribble hand off to a hot Murray 10+ timesWow.....much skill......much playmaking..........
Looks like it's another season of nba fans hating on mvp level players for not being on a superteam
real talk if you're gonna hate on big vorp at least do from an angle that's actually real like that sad ass defense, which is the real reason why they lose games. Coming at it from the offensive end which is literally historically great is asinine
>>154006576>historically greatin the regular season, and easy to shut down in the playoffs, which was my point. Compare that to something like the Pacers the past 2 playoffs, which were great in the regular season and even better in the playoffs.
>>154006472Seemed to work in a playoff setting as he has a ring (without a game 7 achilles tear)
>>154006495I'm glad more people woke up to the lie that Chokic is being held back by his team. Poor MPJ had to go to one of the worst teams in the league just to no longer be handcuffed. KCP ran the second he could. Hopefully Jamal Murray is able to find a team where he doesn't get blamed for the failures of others
Man why the fuck does jokic make blacks seethe so much. It needs to be studied or something, it’s bizarre
>>154006661He only has that ring because Murray went God mode against the Lakers in the clutch. Would have been a Lakers sweep if it wasn't for Murray's heroics and Chokic would be ringless. Just goes to show it was a fluke because he hasn't done shit since except barely beat a garbage Clippers team in 7
>>154006661Congrats on beating a 8th seed Heat team with an injured Jimmy missing a 20 PPG 6th man of the year. If you want to pray and hope Nuggets will get a path filled with injuries and play-in teams again then be my guest, but it's exceedingly unlikely when they're incapable of even securing a top 3 seed in an increasingly tougher west.
>>154006702It's good to be players like Jokic and Luka and have tons of haters. It means that you are important. You don't see people talk about players like donovan mitchell or tyrese maxey despite being stars.
>>154006775>you want to pray and hope Nuggets will get a path filled with injuries and play-in teamsLiterally OKCs run
>>154006702>Why do older guys who have seen real legends play discount the players I've watched the past decade when I started watching basketball???I'll take Vlade over Chokic because he actually made his teammates better
idk why you retards even take the bait.
>>154006849OKC played 1 play-in team, Denver played 3. Almost every championship run has injury luck, but Denver had the easiest run in the past 20 years
>>154007092thread's totally dead without bait
i got sugar in my tank
rockets vs lakers round 1 matchup is what the ppl want
>>154007161your spreadsheet has quite a few blindspots. it ignores the trade deadline (teams may have improved their roster greatly at the trade deadline). it ignores potential early season injuries that may have artificially lowered a team's overall record, and also late-season or play-off injuries that may have led to a team's downfall. it ignores teams who coasted in the regular season, only to play hard in the playoffs (the 3-peat lakers were notorious for this). it ignores home court advantage. it ignores matchup nightmares. basically, you wasted a ton of time on a retarded spreadsheet.
>>154006702it's just cazzie superteam bandwagoners. i remember heat and warriors fans back in the day shitting on top 5 players cause all they see is the wins stat. now it's blowgayc fans shitting on jokic
>>154006702because hes really good
Kek if I wasnt such a chud failure who isnt succeeding at school and is wastimg decades of debt just to fail at school. I could laugh heartily at this instead of it invoking a reminder of my failure in life
>>154007560all of these are things that could easily be adjusted for

>>154007250
>>154007702What is voyeurism?
>>154007723keep me posted.
all 3 games start at the same time? is there something important going on later tonight?
>>154007772peeping tom aka person watching nude people without their knowledge
>>154008008i thought it's not illegal to look at them if they're standing naked in their window
>>154007702If the curtains are open is it still a crime?
>>154008008>>154008072Honestly I forgot the word and mistook it for the people who actually like to be watched naked. So nice clarification
>>154008113we'll plea guilty and get you 10 years on probation fren
>>154008072>>154008113there's obviously some grey area on what counts but usually its implied that you're going out of your way to see this person nudeif they're looking to bring charges that means the dude was creeping right in front of her window or did the old fashion hole in the wall
>Ass games on my off day...I guess i'll watch nipple then

RYAN COCKBURNER FLIES TOWARDS THE RIM
>>154001354Day 2 of Petefag/Mealfag's ban. I'm loving it
>>154008535This guy is so fucking based
>DaQuan JefferiesWho are these AI generated players on tanking teams? We getting quandale dingle next
Just watched a sports analyst say that a team wouldn’t work in Vegas because, “I just don’t see Wizard fans flying to watch them play in Vegas”.Do Wizard fans even exist?
>>154008954It wouldn't work in Vegas. The Knights are successful because hockey is based and they were the first team there. The Knights are way more popular in Vegas than the Raiders. Raiders tickets are the highest in all of the NFL even though they were the lowest in Oakland. Putting a NBA team in Vegas wouldn't work because NBA is a trash league and nobody outside the casinos are going to pay $500 to go watch load management/tanking/bad basketball. At least with the Raiders you can tap into their spiritual home in California with the LA market being their true home market. Who the fuck will the new NBA team try to tap into? Outside my own team I will not watch this garbage league. NBA is a fucking joke and the right move is to contract 6-8 teams to make the teams better. Nobody gives a fuck about Memphis vs New Orleans or whatever other garbage 90% of NBA games are these days
Wilt.Bam.Kobe.
>>15400905881 > 60 > 83*
>>154008949Big mama was rollin
>>154009083roll
I forgot GTAlvarado got traded to the knicks
>>154009105That's a guy Lakers could use. They need to pick up someone in the offseason to address defending fast speedy guards like FTA and Castle. That benchwarmer on Detroit lit the Lakers up like a Christmas tree just because he's too fast for everyone to defend
>>154009083Call me Jertarondo Robinson
who we watching
>>154009139we finna fly to las vegas to watch the washington wizards
>>154009083how come "chet" isn't on there
It's still crazy to think Bam had a 83 PT game. I thought if anyone on the heat would have done a crazy game like that it would have been Tyler
>>154009072Wilt.Bam.Kobe.
>>154009132Atp, they should just take any serviceable players because that team is just so sad>>154009139I'm watching the hornies because of nipple
>>154009164Question for you. How badly did Kobe rape your childhood? Like on a scale of 1 to Colorado hotel room
Lamelo ball isnt a serious player
>>154009199The guy they thought would do all that Gay-be Vincent ended up being a huge bust and they shipped him out. You gotta have someone speedy at the perimeter since referees don't let you body anybody anymore. A guy like Curry, Morant, FTA would all get mauled back in the day if they tried to play under the basket. Wade is a perfect example of what happens to your body if you tried to bring it down low before refs coddled the players
>>154009052Thanks for that thoughtful post anon. Once the Raiders start winning those seats will be filled by Vegas Residents. NBA is full of zoomer slop and it should die a slow death.
>>154009163It was a thank you and I'm sorry you have to play with these G-leaguers every night present from Spo to Bam. Herro doesn't have enough clout to get that treatment.
>>154009255he doesn't need to be
Why doesn't anyone bounce pass anymore? A perfectly executed bounce pass is cum worthy
>>154009294on a playoff team you need to be serious. Take the tik tok plays to the wizards
>>154009325NTA but Halli has a similar game and he took the pacers to the finals. If his shot is falling, and KK and Miller are playing well this team could actually reach the finals
>>154009275Once the Raiders start winning, those seats will be filled by Californians as well. NFL truly fucked up putting the Raiders in Vegas and the Chargers in LA. Should have switched them.NBA is pretty cringe these days and unless you're one of the premiere teams like the Lakers or Celtics, it's a very hard league to take serious. The owners are just adding two teams to fleece the new owners. No way are you going to ever get a ROI on $7 billion owning a NBA team unless you're the Lakers
>>154009354hali is 10x the player lamelo is. Hali is super efficient and knows how to find the open man
>>154009261Gaybe is such a fraud. Spo is a genius for bringing that zombie heat team to the finals
>>154009395>hali is 10x the player lamelo isno he isnt. I might argue he is actually the better playmaker
I WANNA DANCE WITH SOMEBODY
>>154009354>Halli has a similar gamehaliburton ast/to ratio is nuts, lamelo isn't even close
>check in on /nba/>babbs and jeets are chimping out over jokic againsame as it ever was, /nba/ has been like this every day this decade so far. reminds me of how /pol/ chimps over DA JOOOOOZ everyday /nba/: DA JOOOOOKIC

If anyone is gonna break curry's all time 3pt record, it's nipple. He's the white ray allen.
KAT has 2 points at the half
>>154009453He's like 5 years younger and only got decent role players now
>>154009466kek

Are we sure Charlotte isn’t just gonna go to the finals

>>154009466>admits to Kobe raping his childhood
>>154009583The East is wide open now with Cade being out
>>154009474Don't think an off ball guy can get there. Luka might end up close to Steph despite being a pretty average shooter.
Kon with jokic would be GOD tier
>>154009583Half the NBA isn't even trying homie. Literally all trying to tank. Hornets are all about to enter free agency/contract extensions so they are finally trying. Once they get paid they'll come back to earth and be trash again
>>154009635luka would have to play past 40 at this rate, not gonna happen
Konipple 11/5/5 in the 1st half, well on his way to Tripoli Dublin
No way the knicks are going to the finals. KAT just doesn't fit Brown's system
>faith in chet yesterday>rolled with KAT today
>>154009083sharterious brown is the winning roll, use the /nba/ version next time
>>154009635>>154009706Yeah, he'd at least have to shoot at least 39% from three to get anywhere close

rip the nip
>>154009706Luka's rate has been increasing yearly though. He's not a good shooter but Antoine Walker used to get more 3s than Ray Allen just by spamming them way more.
>>154009163This is great bait, but seriously nobody respects the 83*

>>154011841Holy kekDon't get me wrong, there's individual talent but you're talking about 1 maybe 2 dudes and the rest are nothing. Ridiculous to think these 20 something year old guys who are on the cusp of the league are worse
>>154011882We all tried to explain to him that each G league team is basically a NCAA all star team with the best guys from each school and more grown bodies. Like the was convinced some famous team like Duke would beat anybody

>>154011260>>154011289march madness and really just college sports in general have fuck all to do with the players (most of the time), its literally just an alumni/tradition basically a way to brag about "my school is better than your school" when in reality its just which schools can afford to buy all the best recruits under the table
Aren't half the players in college hoops just regular guys who have no plans on trying to get to the NBA?
>>154012029I didn't go to college. Maybe that's why I don't give a fuck about college sports.
>>154011933Yeah those grown ass G-League men are so good they let 17 year old Scoot Henderson cook to the point where people thought he should go over Wemby
>>154012029College sports are only popular because people in shit states that nobody wants to live in have no other sports teams so they cling onto these colleges that they never attended and treat them as their defacto pro team. I tried to get into college sports awhile back but after watching NFL and NBA for so long it's just a very bad product. No amount of drunk white girls will convince me to watch it
>>154012062Anon there are like 18,000 college players each season and only 60 make it to the NBA
>>154012109Scoot Henderson with other grown men playing with him to mask his deficits? Try putting Scoot Henderson on a team with Opey and Skylar then we'll see how good he is
>>154012109two things can be bad, doesnt change the fact that something else is worse
>>154012062Half those mfers are finance majors
>>154012109g-league ignite =/= actual g-leagueignite was basically the nba equivalent to IMG academy and only existed to prevent prospects from going overseas like lamelo didthere's a reason why it shut down but the actual g-league still exists
>>154012109Out of the million dumb things Bill Simmons has said, the funniest was saying he would trade Jaylen Brown for Scoot Henderson prior to that draft.
>>154012109>>154012192> They lost 32 games in their 34-game season to set a mark for most losses in the history of the G League for one season to go with the lowest winning percentage ever at .059, while their two winsKek just reinforces the notion that G league would murder any college team
What does /nba/ think about ESPN's Net points metric? https://espnanalytics.com/nba-net-pts
>>154012029>buy all the best recruits under the tableit's not even under the table anymore, they got NIL rules
>>154012295Does it take into account quality of opponent?
>>154012304lol NIL has helped but don't believe for one second they aren't still giving away extra "bonuses" out of sight
>>154012321I don't think so https://www.nbastuffer.com/analytics101/net-points-espn/
>>154012356Then throw it in the trash like the Clippers
>>154012340Why would they have to do it out of sight? There's no salary cap or anything preventing them from getting paid whatever someone wants to pay them
Will this finally be the season the Hawks escape play-in purgatory?

Since college has become the Catholic Church in amateurism they should say fuck it and adopt NBA uncs who can't cut it anymore. How great would it be to watch 40 year old Chris Paul lose in the national championship game?

I'm a cuck and I like it when people fuck my wife. I am currently a decade into my NBA career.
This will be the first time in NBA history that a player lost out on ROY to another player that averaged fewer points, rebounds, assist, steals, and blocks.Remarkable.
>>154014843Kon deserves it
>>154014869Based purely on catch and shoot 3P%
>>154014923And team record
>>154014964Team record has never mattered for ROY. Wemby won it in a landslide on a 22 win team despite Chet being a key player on a 57 win #1 seed AND being MUCH more efficient than Wemby (56% TS vs 63%).
>>154014843Kon is just very clearly the better player at this point. Every single playoff team would choose Kon over Cooper for this year's playoffs.Duke probably would have won last year if they went to Kon more instead of forcing it to Cooper. He's never been an efficient player and he's turnover prone.
>>154015211Lol, look up the boxscore to that Houston game and get back to me. Cooper did everything he could. They lost because of Tyrese Proctor and Sion James late game fuck ups. Not to mention their lottery pick big man somehow had zero rebounds in the game.
>>154015147It matters when a rookie is helping the trashiest org to make the playoffs in 27373737 years
>>154015211Flagg isn’t turnover prone and was efficient in college
>>154014923Elite shotmakers are some of the most valuable players you can find. Kon’s also not detrimental in any other way, despite people assuming him to be some non-defender who can’t dribble or pass either
>>154015147Wemby had a way bigger lead on counting stats over Chet than Cooper has over KonAlso there was that game where he stuffed the shit out of Chet and won a game the Spurs had no business winning that yearWhat sticks out to me is the media has seemingly not really pushed Cooper much the past several months over the start of the season
scott foster would have ejected this thug. that's how you earn respect in the nba as a referee
man that's the most amazing bailout with the shotclock running out i've seen in a while
Threadly reminder that my Bullies are getting a top-3 pick since Papa Silver owes us for gifting our hometown hero, and probably best player, Ayo Dosunmu, to the Face of the League ™ and taking their draft bust. We’re going to take Boozer with our pick and then best center available with the Portland pick. Then we’re going to select best bigs/SGs available with our second rounders — but Boozer may want his brother here. Then we’re going to let everyone except Dillingham and Miller walk, sort free agency by age and sign every 18-22 year old with a ~72+ rating and untapped potential.Lineup next year:>PG: Josh Giddey>SG: Isaac Okoro>SF: Matas Buzelis>PF: Cameron Boozer>C: Center selected with Portland pick>Sixth Man: Tre Jones>Bench:>Jalen Smith>Patrick Williams>Leonard Miller>Rob Dillingham>Noa Essengue>second round pick>second round pick/Cayden Boozer>18-22 year old with a ~72+ rating and untapped potential>18-22 year old with a ~72+ rating and untapped potentialName a more fun, young team than my 2026-2027 Bullies.

The poster above me is fucking annoying
>>154015386Kon is not a "shotmaker". He's a shooter. 92% of his 3's are assisted, and 59% of his 2's.For Cooper, it's 73% and 40%.Cooper has the much more difficult task, creating for himself and others while essentially being the sole focus of opposing defenses. He doesn't have guys like LaMelo or Miller setting him up or taking pressure off him.
>>154015697That is what I would consider a shotmaker, as opposed to a creator. He makes shots better than almost anyone. You’re right that Flagg has a harder task, and has had a pretty torrid context this season, but I don’t think that that’s what ROTY should be based on. I still think that Flagg will peak higher, just hasn’t been as good this year in his role
>>154015697I could also argue that if Nipple doesn't have to share the ball with Miller and Bridges, he'd average 25 ppg. But this kind of "if" arguments are pointless.I'm pretty sure Cooper will be great one day, but for now, Nipple is the better player.
>>154015590Ok, I will stop posting here. :( Goodbye.

Every first world country does its jobs by clock and minutes country and these dumbasses couldnt do it for a 200 billion dollar company
>>154018650Still lu dort but im starting to dislike wemby. Not because i think hes become overrated, guy seems like a bit of an entitled asshole>>154018665Based
>>154017763>The gorilla is cool yeah. Why is their mascot a gorilla nigga anyways? You'd think it would be a bigass sun.Boomers used to meme IRL with shit like sending telegrams where the driver was dressed up in costumes. Someone sent one to a Suns game way back in the 70s or 80s and the driver was screwing around near the court and getting attention from the crowd. Guess the guy got off in it because he kept going back in his gorilla suit until the team made it official
There’d be crazy hype if Wemby pulls a Hakeem and wins MVP/DPOY
I need Wemby's pussy in my bbc
I can only see the spurs or celtics winning it all DESU. Wemby winning would create a new villain. Trust me, nobody wants a french guy as the face of the league

>>154020543>5'3That was Muggsy Bogues, nigga
I have a solution to NBA's tanking problem. We give the worst team the first overall pick, the second worst team the 2nd overall pick etc all the way until the NBA Champions get the 30th pick (32nd with expansion). This way it's much more difficult for a team to be a bottom feeder for a long period of time, and reducing the time teams are "tanking". Problem solved, everyone wins!
>>154020306New here? I run this genny
>>154020978No nigga the NBA changed the way they measured players in the last decade, see Klay Thompson going from 6’7 during GS title run to 6’5 today. Boykins was 5’3-5’4, Muggsy even shorter than that. They are incredible
>>154020963WemBUST winning MVP before playing his first playoff game would be the final nail in the coffin for this meme award
>>154021043Muggsy gave millions of manlets around the world delusional hope that they could make the NBAA true kang
>>154021017The problem with this is that a lot of teams stay shitty even after they get a very high pick. The Wizards had the 2nd pick and they are awful right now.
>>154021182Sure it's possible, but it's a lot less likely. If the Process era 76ers had the proposed tanking rules, there's an extremely good chance that they'd still be trying to get a star
>>154020963wemby actually giving a shit and being arrogant as hell is exactly what the league needs. It's refreshing. He doesn't make excuses like embitch nor throw rocks and hide his hands like zestygay/okc in general. He's throwing shots with no subliminals. He may fall short but he's forever based as long as he doesn't make excuses later
The reality is, the reason that the lottery exists isn't for some hypothetical fairness reason, but it's so they can make deals with teams using the first pick as a reward (See: Ben Simmons for Firing Hinkie and hiring Silver's friend Colangelo, Mavs trading Luka to the Lakers for Cooper Flagg)
>>154021215He's setting himself up for a massive KWAB though if he gets bounced
>>154021221Retard
>[Vorkunov] The Connecticut Sun are being bought by the Fertitta family, the owners of the Rockets, for $300 million and the franchise will be moved to Houston, according to sources briefed on the deal.lol
>>154021202But the Sixers are still trying to get a star.
>>154021221it's strictly because houston tanked 2 years in a row to get Sampson/Hakeem and it made people seethe because they thought they'd run the league for a decade. The real answer to end tanking is entirely decoupling it from draft picks or better yet, punish losing teams but both aren't popular for most owners because the league is inherently socialist with built in protections for shit franchises
>>154021234This. If he plays well and gets bounced in the conference final or something then fine. But if he pulls a hamstring in round 1 and goes nowhere then he needs to stfu for a while
>>154021279Nah they got a first ballot Hall of Fame MVP winning superstar that every single NBA player past or present agrees is one of the best ever
Why not just make the draft completely random regardless of record?
>>154021202>If the 76ers hadn't been allowed to make a laughingstock of themselves and the entire league for years they wouldn't have been able to draft that guy who never made it out of the second round, won nothing besides a fraudulent DEI MVP and is currently crippling the team with his albatross contract.What part of that is supposed to be the problem
every night I pray for a career ending injury for OKC players
>>154021346A 50-60 win team getting the #1 overall pick would just be stacking the deck. You want at least some semblance of competitive balance.Easiest just to exclude any of the final 8. No legit team is going to throw a playoff series just for a 4% chance at the lottery and if some shitter does roll over in a first round series, well, those series are usually lopsided ass kickings anyway so what's the difference
>>154021346the correct answer is the draft wheel. Also introduces a more strategic element with trades. Imagine literally knowing the picks you have years out and how much that would effect the evaluation of trades
>>154021273Texas really gonna have 3 wnba teams
did you guys know Isiah Joe and Jaylin Williams went to the same high school and were teammates in arkansas
>>154021537Yes. Did you know Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander are cousins?
>>154021547damn thats crazy
Silver should ban shitty teams from raising ticket prices. Vivek is raising prices like 25% as the kings go into ANOTHER season of tanking. Silver should fire the jeet into the sun sterling style for that
>>154020963>Dude hasn't even sniffed a playoff series yet>hasn't even sniffedwhat team didn't make the playoffs with 55+ wins
>>154021060>>154020963It’s a regular season award thoughbeit
Team win% without them this season:1. Wemby — 66.7%2. Shai — 66.7%3. Jokic — 62.5%4. Luka — 50.0%5. Jaylen — 85.7%6. Cade — 75.0%Why do they discriminate against him?

>>154021950This is what the NBA deserves. All these retards talking about "impact" did this
>>154021953I mean the knicks and Bulls raised prices even during their tanking years
Dray was really in talks for DPOTY last season because he said he wanted it
>>154021995People who continue to pay for that garbage deserve to get ripped off. Until people learn to walk away and boycott, these greedy owners are going to continue to price gouge
>>154021818If Luka doesn't win this year, I fear that he'll never win an mvp award ever because wemby is gonna dominate the league and he's the media's favourite kid
