Jazzbros now that the tank is officially over, how good will be next year?
Gotta lock in for tomorrow
>>154910856Whaddya mean by that?

>>154910903I gotchu senpai
Are you ready for the new era of basketball, where the teams that are tanking are competing until the trade deadline before shedding everything they can and tanking for the 4-8 spot?
In what world is this not a flagrant?also>Wemby chimping out with an elbow to the jaw (super dangerous)>Wemby ordering a hit as he's subbed out>this fucking rookieWHY DO YOU SUPPORT THESE THUGS
>>154910978If they're going to call the fouls, the Spurs might as well get their money's worth. I'm in full support of making the refs earn their whistles
>>154910978What happened to the game of basketball?
>>154910978Spurs are simply answering thugball with thugball. Can't believe it took this long for someone to do to the thunder what they've been doing to the rest of the league to be honest
>>154910974>100% the team that adam silver decides will get the #1 overall pick>0% all other teamswtf it's the same
>>154910978They deserve it
>>154910974that sounds far more troublesome than it's worth. The reward isn't big enough. Might as well just see what your team can actually do
>>154910974what do you mean? teams will tank out of the play in for 2.7% better odds at 1st pick?
>>154910999>attack you then cry out when you fight backthis sounds pretty familiar
>>154911012That teams will tank for the 4th to 10th worst record by simply delaying when the tank itself starts. It's an objective fact that the best anti-tank measure is not having a lottery at all.
>>154910978you niggas are soft
Why is chet such a bitch?
>>154911022We need this backNational Basketball Entertainment
>>154911019but why would they tank for those spots if the alternative is play in/playoffs? surely theyll just play in the post season
>>154911034>Caruso asking for a foulDude went from likeable to being a bitch
>>154910974The funniest change in the new rules is they added a clause that allows Silver to step in and change your draft position whenever he wants>Discipline: The league will have expanded disciplinary authority to address tanking, including the ability to reduce teams’ lottery odds, modify teams’ draft positions and impose significant fines on offending teams.
>>154911034his rabbi told him not to stoop down to the level of goyim
>>154911052Because the chance of getting a transformative talent at #1 is far much greater than the chance of being the 2025-2026 76ers. I believe the current system also impacts traded draft picks, so a team could trade for a pick, that pick could then be barred from winning the lottery
>>154911034>Literally the whole bench asking for a foul Pussy
>>154911072tanking in a game to game sense is exaggerated, the issue with the previous situation was that teams were bottoming out for 5 years in order to rebuild. I doubt teams are going to undergo any drastic measures to tank for an extra 2.7% chance at 1st overall pick, while also missing out on the post season as a result. Maybe the flattened odds shouldve included play in teams too though tbf
>>154911114>teams were bottoming out for 5 years in order to rebuildBecause they needed a lottery to go their way. The Wizards wouldn't have been shit for so long if there wasn't a lottery. The Jazz don't go 22-60 this year if they got Cooper Flagg like their record indicated. Thanks will change, because they'll be teams selling hard at the deadline like the Grizzlies did this year
>>154910974This is so bad. What the fuck is Adam Silver thinking?
>>154911133>>154911114Flat Odds will probably end up being the worst part of this. Flat odds is how a 41 win Orlando got the first overall pick after getting Shaq the year before. The lottery only exists as it does because the league itself can use it as a bargaining chip with certain teams (Trade Luka to the Lakers and you get Flagg) as well as a free TV rating
>>154910899fascinating german architecture
this thread is racism
Wait chet is a jew?
The Thunder cry out in pain as they strike you.
>>154911133well no a team would just try to get the number one pick for 3 years in a row, removing the lottery would not end the tanking problem at all
JDUB IS KILL
>>154911171Removing the lottery would make tanking a lot less of an issue, because when a team bottoms out they get the first pick, which is the first step in climbing out of the bottom. The Nets wouldn't be in the situation they find themselves in if there wasn't a lottery. Is there a true blue way to eliminate tanking? No, but every method involving a lottery makes the problem worse.
>>154911169Their fans really do act like that huh. Really makes you think.
If we lose tomorrow,. I better see my boy Dort smash that pineapple faggot Castle's kneecap into dust
>>154910990Fucking this. He's going to take a dive anyway, might as well drive his ass into the ground. And if Carter does get a flagrant, oh well. He plays like five minutes a game anyway. Perfect guy to take the risk
>>154911179>put him in for 10 minutes to test his hammy out>plays like shit on purpose so Spurs will think he won't be played in game 7>drops a 30 bomb in game 7.can't wait for this
>>154911179
>>154911192neve rmind just read he's actually out HUR DURRR
poo >>>>>>>>>> angel reese > tranny clark
>>154911201This is like his 6th hamstring injury this season
>>154911181nets also wouldnt be in the situation theyre currently in if they didnt trade kd, harden, and kyrie for a cum sock. Thats the only reason why these terrible teams exist, because they trade away their good players on purpose>when a team bottoms out they get the first pick, which is the first step in climbing out of the bottomeven guys like wemby and flagg and so on cant take a shit team out of the lottery straight away, teams will just continue to accrue assets
>>154911201OKC should have lied and put him as questionable, Spurs players will be hyped as fuck now
>>154911223Spurs don't get Harper and Castle without the lottery btw
>>154911201Ajay Mitchell I'm beggin ya
>you just need a #1 pick bro
>>154911181Dipshit, why the fuck do you think the lottery exists to begin with. If team knew, with absolute certainty, that they could get a Wembenyama or LeBron-tier player by finishing with the worst record we'd unironically see a dozen teams trying to finish 0-82.Teams are willing to throw away entire seasons now just for like a 10% chance at a #1 pick. If the odds were 100% we'd see shit you wouldn't believe.
>>154911230spurs finished 14th in the west in 23/24 and 13th in 24/25
Nuclear hot take: Harden is more influential than Curry on how kids and the new generation play. Retards and uncs think Chucking 3s = Curry but if you actually see zoomers play it REEKS of Harden. Constant iso, stepback 3 spam, P&R abuse. Nobody wants to do all the hard offball work they want to be Harden with the green light.
>>154911014
>>154911255is the food in strip clubs really that good?
Presti about to ship Jdub off for 5 first round picks. Question is who is dumb enough to answer the phone
>>154911244Which is why they have to reform the lottery to fix it every 3 years, right? Because it's a system that works? Let's ask the Utah Jazz how the lottery is benefiting them instead of say, the Dallas Mavericks, who had the 14th worst record in basketball and then got the generational guy
>>154911267It'll be Ajay and picks for Dybantsa
>>154911279the whole point of the lottery was to stop teams from intentionally losing. They've constantly taken more steps to that end. Who gives a fuck about who benefits
>>154911295>dybantsa with sgagrim
>>154911300>the whole point of the lottery was to stop teams from intentionally losingIt failed>They've constantly taken more steps to that endThey constantly fail>Who gives a fuck about who benefitsThe teams that are screwed by the system designed to screw themHere's an idea. Either accept that it really isn't a problem, or implement an actual solution that would work? If you can't do the latter, than the answer is the former. And in the case of tanking, the NBA has tried for 40 years to fix it and only made it worse
do not let the Jazz get Dybantsa otherwise they'll turn into a playoff team
>>154911314>They constantly failbecause they never removed the incentive to be at the bottom until now, the other changes were cope
>>154911331Right, so the incentive is now to be just above the bottom. Meaning that tanking is still there, they just moved the starting point to the trade deadline.
>>154911341And the judge on this case, who all but indicated that Vince and the gang are losing this case. He's wrong?
>>154911341well that will only be the case if teams decide than the 2.7% increase is worth missing out on the post season. Also, its much easier to punish that type of tanking (faking juries, etc) than the bottoming out type of tanking which goes on with the current incentive structure
>>154911279Because teams have no fucking integrity and will be shit on purpose for like five fucking years despite having no guarantees that they get a top pick out of it. Which means that if you DID guarantee the results they would be even more shameless and intentional about it.If the only way to get any draft capital is to completely bottom out then any team on the margins of the playoffs should just lose every fucking game on purpose for the entire season, which is what would happen. You'd have like 7 teams finishing with single digit wins and only one of them would get the best pick and by definition only 3 could be in the top 3 and 5 in the top 5. If enough teams are bad then bad teams will still be frozen out of the actual good picks. A by-the-numbers draft order still doesn't save bad teams, it just encourages more teams to be bad. Again the lottery exists to begin with because they knew what would happen without it. The fact that teams are still embarrassing themselves despite not even getting good odds out of it just proves why it was necessary.
>>154911362injuries not juries
>>1549113622.7% is a big deal. If it wasn't, teams wouldn't have been fighting to go from 12.5% to 14%
>>154911374>because they knew what would happen without itNo, the lottery exists because they needed a vehicle to get Patrick Ewing to the Knicks.
Damn imagine having a game 6 today for the East
>>154911381post season is also a big deal, players want to play in it, doubt players care about finishing 11th versus 12th
>>154910840bruh, bitch should wax that shit
>>154911396Tanking has literally never been telling players to suck on purpose. They're going to do what the Grizzlies did this year. They're going to offload the value they can in an attempt to get into the lottery sweet spot. The NBA has failed 100% of the time to create a solution that even puts a dent in the tanking "problem". If they wanted to solve this, Adam Silver/David Stern would've simply stripped teams accused of tanking of their picks as a deterrent. Instead they created a system that makes tanking (at best) just as prevalent but more convoluted, leading to longer tanks.
>>154911267>ship Jdub off for 5 first round picksmaybe you don't know anything about the nba, because usually you gotta attach your picks to send off a bad contract like that
>>154911420>They're going to offload the value they can in an attempt to get into the lottery sweet spotso you think that a prospective play in/playoff team will actively make themselves worse AND miss out on the post season for 2.7% increase? doubt
>>154911420>Tanking has literally never been telling players to suck on purpose.obviously not i was referring to the injury jewing that supposedly goes on
>>154911433I'm sure the team with the 10th worst record in basketball is chomping at the bit to try and be a 10 seed. Just ask the Chicago bulls this year how that went>>154911441Again, Adam Silver has the ultimate solution to this "problem" and simply refuses to use it
least obvious okc game 7 win
>>154911448i cannot wait for both the spurs meltdown and the nuggets vindication
God bless Adam Silver for solving the tanking crisis. We'll only see 14 teams with 50 losses in the coming years!
>>154911444And the heat in 2023? Teams around the play in are probably not taking their rosters apart for that slight increase in odds, but anyway i think that the odds should include the playin teams if that ends up being the case. The incentive structure should always work upwards gradually, no team should be given a better reason to finish lower than they can
>>154911478Teams didn't have the TV deals back then that they doo now to keep their finances afloat while the searched for their next franchise player in the draft. It's not rocket science.
The only way you can stop teams from trying to get the top pick is to either>Strip the picks of teams who tank>Remove the draft entirelyNo other solution will put a dent in the "problem"
>>154911022I wonder what a modern era compilation would look like
https://x.com/ShamsCharania/status/2060485355921391907
>>154911501Tanking was never a problem in the first place. The league is just trying to convince you that it is so that their gambling overlords have more competitive games for people to bet on and for late season TV ratings to go up so that they can secure more lucrative TV contract deals with networks. Now the league will be filled with perpetually mid teams with bums for franchise players.
>>154911527Adam Silver has done so much damage for basketball. The man saw the ratings and love of the Cavs/Warriors thrillers and immediately said "Nah we need to make sure that NEVER happens again".
>>154911527wise post right here. it's a money problem not a competition problem. the nba clearly does not give a fuck about proper fair competition.
>>154911527You only say that because tanking allows sga to statpad, if every team tried like in the playoffs then he would look like dangelo russell every game and you dont want that
>>154911488Then why not make the season a tournament to determine who gets top pick? Champion gets #1, runner up gets #2, worst team gets #30 etcIt would create dynasties and a caste system but enough players slip through the cracks where it wouldnt be insurmountable
So where to from here?>#7 pick
>>154911567they're going to trade up for acuff
>>154911552Tanking allows small market teams that never get good free agents a chance to improve their team and compete for a championship by hopefully drafting a great player. Now, teams like the Lakers and Heat can potentially draft the #1 pick in the draft without having to be complete shit.
>>154911563That would be too hard to surmount. The issue is balancing the value of a play in/playoff place with high lottery odds, finding the sweet spot whereby teams are rewarded for trying to get into the playoffs but missing out, but the reward isnt so great that it actually beats making the playoffs
>>154911567trade sabonis for something lol
Fun Fact: Daryl Morey once turned down a trade that would've sent Ben Simmons to Sacramento for Tyrese Haliburton
>>154911583>Domantas Sabonis is in the middle of a 4-year, $186 million veteran extension with the Sacramento Kings,
>>154911579Literally all those small market teams have to do is stop deliberately being shit and finish 12th (assuming silver doesnt rig the lottery against them). Maybe they can use some of their picks on a good player or two, like the jazz did
>>154911234Send him to my Spurs. He'll develop into a nice wing piece.
I started playing the newer 2K and they made it so you have to green a shot to make it now. I give up, I'm turning on real player %.
>>154911603Should go to okc and be jewish twin towers with chet. Both went to gonzaga too
silverGOD has never made a wrong decisionsimple as
>>154911607Before:>Small market strategy: Tank, hope for a high pick, scout players, draft the best that you can, develop young players and hope for the best>Big market strategy: Draft roleplayers , be moderately good and have enough cap space that some stars either sign in free agency or demand a trade hereNow:>Small market teams: try not to be too shit, hope for a top pick, try draft better then everyone else and pray>Large market teams: lol be decent enough to make the play-ins, still somehow score the top pick in the draft, free agents beg to sign with usThe draft is now a complete scam. It always was rigged nonsense but now the fans can't even hope for a top pick if their season was shit.
>>154910978
>>154911669That is racist
>>154911582Warriors got a #1 pick in the middle of a dynasty and it was a nothingburger. Who are the top MVP calibre players right now? SGA, Jokic, Luka, Cade, Wemby, etcMost of those guys are late picks. Only Wemby was a #1 overall pick. Most #1 picks are Riscarcher or Wiseman or even Derrick Rose more often than they're Lebron James or Victor Wembenyama
>>154911646Small market teams won. 3 of the final 4 teams and 6 of the top 8 this year were small markets
they should relegate teams i bet that would solve tanking
>>154911669Not on purpose, not every play like the Spurs thugs
>>154910978>>154911034>Fluka, Chokic, Cantman lost to these faggots
Do OKC niggas really?
>>154911057>>154911083It literally was a foul
>>154911798>Three conethis nigger doesn't acknowledge the bullshit his team gets away with on his videos, so I stopped watching him
>>154911824And?
OKC theme https://youtu.be/z67xXk8aNIk
>>154911396>players want to play in it,they don't care, they make epic money in the regular season, they'd probably rather miss the 'yoffs and get the extra time off work
>>154911702>SGA: 11th pick>Jokic: Late second round>Luka: 3rd pick>Cade: 1st pick>Wemby: 1st pick>Lebron: 1st pick>KD: 2nd pick>Steph: 7th pick>Tatum: 3rd pickMost of the best players in the league were high draft picks. The idea that teams should try to find future MVP's late in the draft is laughable
>>154911619imagine if danny wolf & ben saraf ended up playing with chet sabonis deniJEWISH BASKETBALL would reign supreme over the NBA
>>154910999With how they do dirty little shit I'm honestly surprised Wemby made it to game 7 without an "accidental" foot being placed on his landing spot. Though I guess that might just be because with his mutant height he doesn't ever have to leave his feet to do anything
>>154911798>majored inso uhhh he didn't get a degree, did he?
>>154911831So why shouldn't you ask for a foul after getting fouled?
>>154911882Spurs have been doing it and apparently doesn't work so fuck them too
People calling the Spurs dirty root for this fucking team
>>154911034>BITCH ASS WHITE BOI!!!
>>154911948Ah okay always interesting to see how the hivemind operates
>>154911727No owner is agreeing to play in a lower league
I'm tired of people talking about dirty.Them boys just out there playing ball.
>>154911978being dirty and literally trying to hurt others is much more disgusting than flopping to get calls like how is this even a thing we're comparing
>>154911978Do you think when they practice this they just call it flopping training or something like "selling the call"
>>154911858The last time the first overall pick was a player that went on to become MVP was 2008. And his career wasn't even good besides that.2025–26: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Drafted 11th overall in 2018)2024–25: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (Drafted 11th overall in 2018)2023–24: Nikola Jokić (Drafted 41st overall in 2014)2022–23: Joel Embiid (Drafted 3rd overall in 2014)2021–22: Nikola Jokić (Drafted 41st overall in 2014)2020–21: Nikola Jokić (Drafted 41st overall in 2014)2019–20: Giannis Antetokounmpo (Drafted 15th overall in 2013)2018–19: Giannis Antetokounmpo (Drafted 15th overall in 2013)2017–18: James Harden (Drafted 3rd overall in 2009)2016–17: Russell Westbrook (Drafted 4th overall in 2008)2015–16: Stephen Curry (Drafted 7th overall in 2009)2014–15: Stephen Curry (Drafted 7th overall in 2009)2013–14: Kevin Durant (Drafted 2nd overall in 2007)2012–13: LeBron James (Drafted 1st overall in 2003)2011–12: LeBron James (Drafted 1st overall in 2003)2010–11: Derrick Rose (Drafted 1st overall in 2008)
>>154911978This is the team Silver wants to represent Professional Basketball.
none of the teams who tanked actually turned out to be good, except the spurs and maybe the pistons and if you're stretching the rockets. It has never been a good strategy
>>154912037Rose going to Chicago was just as or more suspicious as Flagg to the mavs tbqh
>>154912027He elbowed him in the fucking face.

>>154912519>11.5 ppg this series he already the next duren
>>154912037Meanwhile, look at some of the #1 overall picks since 2008:Zion - bustAyton - bustFultz -bustSimmons - BustBeing a smart organization, managing your assets well and drafting smart wherever your pick is is more important than just getting a high pick to begin with. Becoming a dumpster fire on purpose while assuming you will not only win the lottery to begin with but will get an actual franchise player out of it even if you did is the sort of simpleminded logic shit-tier organizations abide by. It reduces all variables down to just draft position as if that solves everything. It doesn't.
>>154912125>(((accidentally)))
>>154912669Good. They deserve it.

>>154912028Years ago my university hired a new coach and as a PR thing they had a practice open to the public to watch the new coach teach. The first thing they did was flop drills and yes they had a different name for it. At that moment I knew we had hired the wrong coach.
how do players flop? it hurts when i fall on the floor :(
yall niggas playing. The triple tower jazz+peterson/aj gon make noise
>>154911646>fans can't even hope for a top pick if their season was shit.You can still get a top pick even if you're shit, you just don't get special double bonus probability points for being shit any more. And why should you? That system never really rewarded actual terrible teams anyway, just made mid teams larp as terrible teams. Now no one's ever going to finish in the bottom 3 again unless they're *actually* that bad, in which case get your shit together, fire your GM and coach and stop being pure ass.No one's saying you have to bootstrap yourself into title contention without ever getting good picks again. Just show enough competency to get yourself out of the gutter and you'll be back in the normal probability range again. You might have to move in the general direction of mediocrity and just be bottom 5 instead of dead last before you get your lucky break. So get better. Win a whole 20 fucking games in an 85 game season. Finish 8th instead of 10th.If you spend years consistently in the bottom 3 you have no right to cry about your lottery odds because you're just a d-tier organization and anyone going to you would just be wasted anyway. If teams like Washington spent a decade in purgatory it would be a self-inflicted wound and perfectly fair. Maybe stop making retarded decisions for a few years.

I just think it's really funny that Wemby is somehow so influential he convinced his entire time to just relentlessly bully this one guy for no reason

>>154913922This, fuck the media industrial complex
>>154910840so who does silver's script have winning the finals? assuming it's gotta be the spurs over the knicks barring unexpected injuries. maybe silver realized nobody liked his stupid ref propped superteam? or is he going to keep trying to convince us shai is the face of the league for one more year?
When do we find out who the refs will be?
>>154914163I already told you that LeGOD was the top in this situation. Stop slandering him.

if Shai has another dogshit game in g7 do they strip him of his MVP title? is there an nba mechanism for that

The last time these two teams met, Jordan left.Now these team will meet again, and LeBron is leaving.But this time, there's no question about the future of the league.
>>154910978that's a draymond screen

>>154914832Silver has ordered the dumbing down of all logos and all will have the circle theme. it's ugly and soulless just like Silvers nba. 1996-2008 is peak. it even has more than 3 fucking colors imagine that.

>>154914358I respect the spurs because they are a competent org without too much bullshit. Much more preferable than perpetual clownshows or cheap asses who luck into stuff. This time around I actually kinda like them because wemby and lowkey Castle are on some young hungry nigga shit and I'm here for it. Usually they're just hoopin but they're down for matching energy like vs minny/okc. They're fine with keeping it regular like vs portland but they'll get in the mud too

So Jaylen Williams is getting traded this off season
>>154911497Education. Wow! Every once in awhile
realistically if Knicks don't show out in the first 3 games of the finals then its over trade everyone get Giannis and maybe some more wings and try to make a greek the face of the league lol
>>154916645NY is one of his preferred destinations so the knicks can probably fleece them

I just want the outcome that will cause the most seethe, my rapturds lost and i am unhappy.
Unlucky for the Spurs OKC isnt a top tier retard team that forces star players to play through injuries. Jalen Williams was about to drop a vintage harden performance
>>154910978I support them precisely because they are fighting foulbaity semen-slurping with increased levels of violence.The only appropriate response.Oh, you're trying to get somefouls ? I'll give you some fouls alright.

>>154917677Chael Sonnen said only about 10 guys in the league are juicing (a few years ago)Most guys look natty. Lebron and Wade definitely seem like they were on some shit. Probably Vince Carter, maybe Melo, probably Giannis. It's only a few guys and not the majority, supposedly

>>154917324My nubian queen.
>>154918600Spurs defense is Wemby, you can already see it nosedive when Kornet comes in for himAnd Magic should've gone for a more offensive coach, they can't score for shit
>>154918669coaches can influence defence much more
>>154914721this is how every man looked like before processed food became a thing
>>154918600magic wont be saved until they trade paolo
>>154918776Coaches can only work with what they have, the greatest defensive mind in the game can't make Jokic the dpoy. On the other hand, it's easy to make a coach look like a defensive genius when you have Wemby
>>154918793>>154918776>>154918669>>154918600Modern NBA coaches are 95% ego managers and 5% Xs&Os.The real heavy lifting are carried by assistants, this isn't the 80s-00s anymore where coaches are allowed to coach.

I need wemby's pussy in my bbc
guys please tell me westbrook will still be in the league next season
>>154918994whats even the case for this
>>154919191>whats even the case for this"""""""""To reduce injuries and load management""""""""", or to make the games even shorter so they can keep selling it as compilation of highlights on social media.And it doesn't even address back-to-backs...
You can cheat in this game. I moved Adrian Dantley to the 2 by switching LeBron to the 3, then moved LeBron to the 1 allowing me to add Dominique Wilkins despite him and Dantley only being able to play the 3 (in this game)Still lost though
>>154919207they should probably reduce the number of games somewhat but not length of games
I'M GAY IF SPURS LOSE TOMORROW
>>154919279I agree. It spreads games out, it ends most back-to-backs, gives these fags more rest, makes the games more important and it's much easier for the NBA to recover from the financial loss.
Still relevant>>154919291Saved

>>154918994I have also thought about if instead of shortening the season they just play 40 mins.
>>154919809what will that do besides make bench players play less
>>154918994Retarded
>>154910978Let's be honest, someone from OKC was going to end up on the floor anyways. Might as well make sure they actually earned the trip.
>>154919760Almost all coaches were pro/college players. I think Chuck Daly is the only one who never touched a basketball at that level.
>>154911022>imagine OKC playing the Bad Boy Pistons with 80s referees Those faggots would fold like a fucking lawn chair.
>>154914671Wilt is a cheat code. Also some seriously favorable rolls got me to 82.I hope you all are playing /nostats/ and no re-rolls. That's pussy shit.
>>154914832Late 90s KG jersey was sickSo was the purple Raptors Vince Carter jersey
Lmao this bitchass sport. Do individual refs affect any other sport the extent they do in the nba?
>>154919521>>154919764So THAT is where the flopping comes from. >The jew cries out in pain as he strikes you
Is he the zestiest referee?
The NBA Cup should be played in a Bubble-like scenario.Lock all these faggots in huge commie blocks and force them to play basketball without any contact with the outside world. And allow anyone to pay x connect with a webcam to watch the game like they did back then, but with a mic so we can scream "D! FENCE!" from home
>>154920123It’s called hoops IQ poseur
>>154910978Shai and his fellow bitches had this coming since last season. Spurs have the personnel to retaliate and enough popularity for Silver to let them do it.
What's the best nba 2k game? My favorite is 2k14 on ps3!
>>154920429I haven't played all of them but 2K16 > 2K14 > 2K11 > 2K20 > restEssentially the game gets worse with every release ever since 2K16 or so.A lot of people will answer 2K11, but for me it felt a bit too clanky at times, 2K14 for me had the best difficulty progression, 2K16 was the perfect balance for me and had much better graphics. Everything else that came afterwards had too much gay stuff in it and it felt like the players were playing on soap.
>>1549204292k14 on pc was goated for me, my cousin, friends hang out on my home to play it, it got massive amount of mods as well

>>154921513hopefully spurs
Looks like they're gonna let them play physical.
>>154921513Knicks and Spurs don't need him
>>154921591Why? Unless he's doing a vet min and allowing the Spurs full control of what his role is then it's a recipe for chemistry fuck up

Also they should look to build around maxey and my edgecum>WarriorsMost likely. They won't win anything, but it'll be a fun retirement tour>>154921641Take a sick leave
>>154921641OKC wins it anyway champ
>>154921513Warriors makes the most sense, but they could get Giannis or Kawhi instead
>>154921606So the plan is for refs to force a game 7 by forcing 3 blow outs to both sides, then let the game 7 be an actual game....... I fucking hate Silver
>>154921625exactly it would be hilarious to see bron fuck it all up
>>154919521He's gonna get 6 million free throws, which should be statistically impossible since that means he's have to get fouled 62,500 times per minute for 48 straight minutes, and Silver says it's illegal to review any of the calls
>>154921641There was a site where you could watch full NBA games right after they finished. I used to turn my cellphone down and hours after the game was over I would just watch the game pretending it is live, making damn sure I never opened social media or news stuff. I forgot the name but I doubt it still exists.

Tonight will be revenge for WWII. Read into that however you want.
I was quite neutral on Wemby before the players mostly leaning into respecting what an elite player he's going to be but these playoffs just showcased what a vicious disgusting thug he is.- Intentionally elbows Naz Reid in the windpipe.- Flopping in nearly every play off game.- Telling the G-Leaguers to purposefully injure some of the OKC guys.- Gets glazed by everyone in the media despite doing these things.Therefore I must ask OKC to win tonight for the good of the Sport.

>>154925048SGA's foul call treatment was an attempt to monetize leaf viewership and it has run it's course. There's more money to be made backing wemby's ascension. No more refball for okc.
