LeBron was robbed of the 2015 Finals MVP
>>156689052Should've been curry or lebron. Giving it to iguana is such a bitch move
>>156689227FMVP is voted on solely by the media who are known to be bitches.
Everyone who posts “Full Game Highlights” on YouTube should be shot in the head.
Name a random player who sucked but you had an attachment to. For me it was JaKarr Sampson, Process Icon
>>156689848>JaKarr SampsonJesus…
>>156689920Him and Tony Wroten helped carry the 76ers to double digit wins
42 year old Lebron would instantly be the greatest free agent signing in 76ers history by far.1. Lebron-POWER GAP-2. George McGinnis-POWER GAP-3. Paul GeorgeThink about how dire that is
>>156689848
Michael Jordan went just 1-9 in the playoffs without Scottie Pippen, never winning a playoff series. LeBron James, at 41 in his 23rd season, won four playoff games in one postseason before losing to the NBA champion Thunder.
>>156690685>0-3 as a 30-52 team against the 67-15 Celtics>0-3 as a 40-42 win team against the 59-23 CelticsI assume the other 1-3 come from assorted games over the years, but I have a hard time blaming Jordan for running into the Larry Bird Celtics at their absolute zenith. I wouldn't fault Lebron if he went 0-4 against the Warriors in the Finals

My GOAT turned 28 today. He's older than most of this genny
>>156692788One of like, 25 players older than LeBron's NBA career

Holy shit black ppl are fucking annoying as fuck. Rethinking my nba fandom. Fuck is wrong with these people now i know why they all kill each other. Jesus fucking christ man. LeBron is way too good of a person. He got people thinking black people were like him.
>>156689848Daequan Cook
Still really loving this picture of Wallace and Reed, Jr. staring at me right before tipoff yesterday.
>>156695598Here's what they were looking at. There was nobody sitting in front of us at that point.
As a bong I don’t have local connections to a team so I like to have one from each conference. I have no idea how the fuck I’m meant to feel that my teams are the Wolves and the Hornets. Ball is a good get for the Wolves (within reason) but losing Naz sucks - and vice versa. And to make things worse on top of all that, my third pick is fucking Detroit who are staking everything on Ebuka Okurie. I have no idea if I’m back or never been more over anymore
Boomshakalaka!
>Veteran point guard Russell Westbrook, a nine-time All-Star and former NBA MVP, is a candidate to join the Heat but only if they miss out on signing LeBronHeat fan, who do you want more? Brodie or Bron?(There is only one correct answer...)
>LeMickey missed the playoffs then got swept and gentleman's swept the next four years
>>156695757I think the Ball trade is going to be great for Minny in the short term and great for the Hornets in the long term. Minny needed to show Ant they can make measured trades to improve the talent on the roster and Ball will take so much pressure of Edwards. Edwards is gonna feast next season and while losing Ried sucks if you have the opportunity to flip him and some picks for a younger All-star in Ball you do it 10 times out of 10. The only thing I'd worry about as a Minny fan is if Ball can stay healthy.Charlotte is a year but more likely 2 years from making serious noise in the East even with Ball, so they sold high on an oft-injured player while gaining depth from the Ball and Bridges trades. Getting Reid, O'neal and Allen gives them more versatility and a deeper bench, the league today is all about running 10 guys 15+ minutes a game and not being so top heavy and they achieved that in theory with this trade. Coby White can hoop too and I think Hornets fans are going to see he is not going to be that big a drop off from Ball, sure Ball hit the gw but White was the truly clutch one in that Play-in win vs. Miami to get to that point. When Miller and Knueppel peak they are gonna be a scary core to build around. As for the Piatons they scream 'one year wonder' to me like the 14-15 Hawks or last years Cavs, but we'll see. They are smart with how they're handling Duren after he almost lost them the 1st round against Orlando.
>>156696058Has to be Bron, Westbrook is still producing at his age but his 'my way or the highway' playstyle just isn't conducive to deep playoff runs.
What happens to Bronny when James retires?
>>156697140He'll be a free agent... for Major League Gaming
>>156697140I think LeBron is gonna retire after next season, and then when Bronny's contract is up after no one will sign him. A little pissed he's taking up a roster spot on the Lakers, even at the minimum or whatever it is. Hopefully they trade him to whichever team LeBron signs with.
>>156697140He's still under Klutch, wiping him off from a team = no more Klutch free agents
Is Lebum going to drag this out until after the trade deadline?
>>156697140shanghai sharks is always looking for new towel boys
>>156697445He dropped 39 in a G league game so he'd definitely get playing time in China.
Lebron at best has two seasons left in him max, why would he end his career in fucking Philly or Minnesota instead of a team he has affinity with like the Cavs or Heat.Basically its between the Cavs and Heat.
>>156693687Man he really is zesty
>>156697140he's gonna shitpost on s pee
fact: the nba should ban nepo hiresfront office, coaching staff and playersthere are many other talented dudes out there but you have the yannis bros and bronny eating up the 12th-15th man space
>>156697850the entire world runs on nepo hires and it's a much bigger problem in more important areas
>>156697571you keep posting these cringe ass images and I don't know why
>>156698042a reporter asked Anthony Edwards what his favourite anime was and he said "I usually don't watch that cartoon shit but I got put on Slam Dunk and it moved me in more ways than I could imagine"and that's how Slam Dunk became /nba/ related.
>>156686558Iso Joe could always get you a bucket
>>156698179For me, it's Ro-Kyu-Bu!
>>156698212except when the games mattered
>>156698179why are you so obsessed with ant? fake demon and not even mvp caliber
>>156689052why do they never give the fmvp to the loser even when he clearly had the best stats and impact? is that bad narrative? tradition? something else?
>>156697571It's Cavs, not even a question. He isn't considering anyone else, he just says he is for the media circus.
>>156698588What's bizzare is like 12 media members vote on it and that's it. They should have all other NBA starters and coaches vote on it because you know they are watching and they actually know ball.
>>156698588You need aura like Jerry West
>>156689848Sasha "The Machine" Vujacic
>>156697850Yeah ban people like Erik Spoelstra, JD Bickerstaff, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Cam Boozer, Tim Hardaway Jr, Jalen Brunson, Jabari Parker etc.
>>156699278I don't remember him having that nickname
29 points is the largest lead in Finals history
How's my magic looking, did we get anyone good?
>>156699008Let's be real, he only got it because he was white and played for the Lakers
>>156699723You got Sean Sweeney, who made even Luka look serviceable on defense.
>>156699723Sweeney is going to do wonders with that roster. I think the roster is super talented but their system was terrible, it was painful watching them play. They should trade Suggs for some frontcourt depth and give Black and Howard all those minutes, Black is better anyway. They just have to stay healthy.
>>156699639Spurs were the better team clearly. Just hungover from their brawl with OKC while the Eastoid team had a cakewalk to the finals. And the spurs did lack depth, they would only play like 7 dudes by the end. People really lack the ability to grasp this shit. The statistical nature of wins and losses and how having an easier path is functionally equivalent to being a better team. We are not wired to ever believe the worse team won. But it happens all the time. It’s like how big 10 teams have been beating the SEC in college football. Harder path to victory means a lot. Especially when there is a lot of parity and injuries often make the differences
>the racist Canadian is starting up againI recognize your posting pattern
76ers are the only team with someone older than LeBron on the roster. He's going to Philly
>>156700008>Worst team won the Finals 4 games to 1The delusion is insane. Anyone watching could see it was two evenly matched teams, the Knicks were just better. The Spurs are probably more TALENTED. but they're younger and not ready yet.
>>156699455You had to be deep into Sasha and Lakers lore to have picked up on the name. I think he said he wanted to be called "The Machine" one pre-season during an interview.It was akin to "DominAyton", as in everyone laughed and thought it was stupid.But every once in a while, when he did a good play or had a good game, people would shout "THE MACHINE!"But it was more in jest than respect, lol.Complete DominAyton tier.
>>15670000829... freaking... points...
>>156700008this is/was how you get the whole country to rook for jew york.arrogant and delusional, even in defeat. griping from a gaped asshole
Tell me why this wouldn’t work
>>156700374>LeBron changes residence to a state with the best ballers
>>156700196All I remember about him is in 2K he had Ray Allen's shot form. And iirc he dropped 20 in a Finals game
>>156700374money and contracts. Why would the nba allow this
>>156700413It'd probably be based on the state you were born in
>>156700428He could ball... sort of, kekAnyway, I loved him.
>>156700464Oh and he also was engaged to Maria Sharapova
>>156700374because there would only be 2-3 competitive teams out of 50 you fucking retard
>>156700374>50 team tournament>removing an entire offseason of rest and recovery>or cancelling a large portion of the regular seasonask /mlb/ how WBC injury insurance is working out
>>156700574My nigga had game on and off the court.
>>156700374New York would never do this, because they couldn't handle the hit to their ego that would happen when California beats them
>>156700374Would it be like the World Cup where Wyoming could sign players out of LA and Texas just because?
>>156701000they would have to import them to wyoming first
Statnerds lost the Jokic battle, so they've desperately pivoted to the Jaylen Brown battle. Can they get back on track, or is the spiral unstoppable?
>>156700008>Spurs were the better team clearly
>>156701221Isn't that the guy who wrote that godawful book? Why is he here, in a Basketball thread?
>>156696922>Charlotte is a year but more likely 2 years from making serious noise in the EastYeah I’m holding out hope. Too early to call on Chris Anderson but feeling good about Steinbach so far, he looked pretty great last night. McNeely is getting better and better too. No doubt that Naz is gonna do well for them and Knueppel will hopefully stick around for a long long time. I’m just overreacting as is tradition. I think a lot of the dooming really just stems from Melo being such a personality that it feels like you’re losing more than just another player, but if that means Charlotte’s new brand is gonna be less showy and more down to business/game faced I’m good with that - it just feels so alien having my teams guys trade places at the same time. If Melo’s ankles don’t crumble him and Ant together are gonna get a lot of eyes on the Wolves.My biggest concern with Duren is if he’s gonna become a total bitch after getting snubbed for how much money he thought he was worth. I hope not because he’s got some legs and I like to think he’s got more integrity than that, but either way, Detroit still need a solid 2nd for Cade imo.
>>156700374because more than half the states would be complete fodder
Fuck shannon sharpe and iso joe. I was listening to them cry about wemby "ONLY" taking 250 million over 5 years. These niggers are as tribal as it gets. Every show they have to talk about their oppressed race like they are not the most fortunate fucking people on the planet.
>>156701221Ironic that you post hitler. Who was clearly correct even though he lost. Exactly the same arc as wemby except wemby is still alive and will come back stronger.
>>156700374People fear the Delaware Cinderella run
>>156689848jericho sims. he cute
>>156700374Thats what march madness is. Or was, before college sports became retarded. NIL is the root of this problem btw. Its national recruiting and social media. Back in the day you just played for the nearest big school to where you grew up. Now players decide where to play between every school in the county.
>>156700374States would just take Yuros and ngubus
>>156702030NIL is NOT the root of the problem I meant to say
>>156701868they literally owe us trillions in reparations
>>156702543they is the us government, not the nba, if we're keeping it 100
>>156702543Yall owe white people reparations. For freeing you and for rescuing you from africa. Zero fucking gratitude though because you are a monkey incapable of understanding your situation.
>>156701392>but if that means Charlotte’s new brand is gonna be less showy and more down to business/game faced I’m good with thatThis is definitely part of the equation. A few reports came out stating the Ball and Bridges moves were about long term chemistry and maturity on the roster, sure it's just what we hear and nothing we can prove, but despite their play the fact is both have checkered off the court histories and they brought in guys who just hoop. Even Allen hasn't had a controversy since Duke.>Detroit still need a solid 2nd for Cade imo.I agree, and it should give you some hope that Duren didn't look like he was that guy last year and Detroit seems to agree. He struggled to make any noticable impact offensively and defensively against Wendall Carter Jr. and Goga Bitadze, that shouldn't be happening to your #2 player who wants a max, least of all against one of the worst frontcourts in the NBA. He didn't look any better against Cleveland, and although they have one of the best froncourts in the NBA, if you want a max you gotta show out against them. The other problem is he doesn't really get blocks or steals, can't shoot 3's, and has no postup game. He just gets dumped the ball from all the attention Cade draws. Those are major issues for not just a modern C but any C.
>>156700610So just like this world cup with spain, france and argentina?
>>156701000Maybe if they went to college or highschool there idk
>>156702543GIBSMEDAT MUFUGGA
>>156701000>>156701047>>156701822If the rules are you can only compete for the state you were born in, I think we'd see the nig states dominate first, but slowly the smaller states start developing a talent pool for basketball. We could see new and interesting strategies develop, I think it could have a lot of soul. Group place would be interesting
>>156702916I meant 'big' states, not nig, but I guess 'nig' works too...
>>156702543>usOh, you were a slave? When?
>>156702916I thought of it as a novelty special event but now that you say this yeah this idea may bring a lot of good long term benefits
>>156702916what about people who moved? A guy like Melo is known for new york but was born in baltimore
>>156701374>Double knee bracesGrim as hell>>156702972Sorry, it's just where you were born, not where you 'grew up' in your developmental years. Only way to keep it fair.
>>156702995He was still in his prime during that pic (1976-1977). He would've won the Finals that year had he not been on the most ballhog team in NBA history.
>>156702916I'd rather have a Champions League of international basketball teams.Guangdong Tigers and the Los Angeles Lakers in the same group type of matches.
>>156703047I doubt any upsets would ever happen. Man I wish the nba was much larger and there was relegation, it was already explain to me that the talent pool for 7ft+ niggas is too thin for multiple basketball leagues but man I wish, maybe one day
>>156702916Jaxxon Hayes plays for Slovenia nigga, he can play for Wyoming if he wants to.
>>156703274I'm saying in my hypothetical scenario, it makes the most sense and is most fair if it's just soil you were born on. Otherwise, there are too many technicalities and bending and even breaking of rules to get the best players to your squad. I'm open to hearing alternatives
>>156701899will he also shoot himself when he eventually loses again?
FYI NJ has KAT, Brunson, Kyrie(raised in NJ), Bam, Dylan Harper, Naz, JJJ, Naji marshall
>>156703607>>156703470Just remember that you are seething at THE FACE OF THE LEAGUESit down

>>156703662not sure what the point of being 7'4" is if you can't guard a manlet when it matters most
>>156704164His talent is being 7-4
lol he's so mad he's got little 718x406 clips now
>>156704297
>>156704285The average 7'4" NBA player is fucking dogshit. When you get that tall it's an honest liability. Wemby would genuinely be so much better if he was 6'11
Like, this is the kind of player you get when you get a freakishly tall guy. Wemby is a complete anomaly in the history of basketball by being 7'4" and actually being a superstar
>>156704000yes bro you are spamming gifs. its seething
>>156704364Sorry, this is the CEILING of what kind of player you get when you get a freakishly tall guy. Once you get past 7'2" you stop being a human being
>>156704364quadriplegic now btw, never ride bicycles
Aday Mara is the type of project player that needs 3 years of zero expectations to develop properly. He clearly has good touch and court vision. Hes just not the player the Thunder need, and the rest of the league pretty were gonna let them have Morez or Yaxel (the two guys Presti brought in for workouts) no matter what. Fuck you Masai.
>>156704395Anything over 6'6" is honestly too tall
>>1567044915'0-5'9 and 6'0 to 6'9 are the perfect NBA heights
>>1567044916'6 is such a chad height. Literally perfect to mog everyone while also being healthy
>>156704537nah its too tall. You will be uncomfortable in normal cars or on ariplaines. 6'4 is the optimal height IMO
>>156704596Most everyday things are made for the average range of height which is 5'7"-6'0"
>>156704329Agreed, he'll have advantages from his length but he'll never be in the GOAT convo.He's freaky long, but not freaky big like shaq was. What kind of offensive player will he settle into? All this showy stuff was exposed in the finals.>handles7'4" means you can't handle the ball without exposing yourself to constant turnovers and dropped spaghetti. Limbs too long, window too open, ball too exposed. Alverado poached him on help d all finals>postToo light to assert himself in the post. Can't add weight due to physiological limits on knees and ankles. Made worse by not having any post moves beyond a simple pivot.is hitting the limits on what knees can handle. Needs a hookshot more than anyone in the last 30 years.>shooterProbably his best bet, but also provides the least value. 40% shooters can be found in the 2nd round these days.
>>156704377I'm literally FUMING that Wemby blew a 29 point lead
>5 how high does it go
>>1567046846. I didn't actually make or save that many vids from the finals
>>156704646>not having any post moves beyond a simple pivotThe elbow lock and spin. At his height, that elbow will catch a head more than a chest.Hilarious that it will be called against him for the rest of his career thanks to his chimpout at Naz Reid.
>westbrick is threatening to join the heat
>LeCancer holds the off season hostage one last timeClassic stuff
>>156689848Malachi Richardson, never watched him before until his NCAA tournament with Syracuse where they had a magical run with him at the helm upsetting a lot of higher seeds. Also I pronounced his name like Muh la Chi, but it's Ma la KHI. Thought he had a cool Asian influenced name.
>>156705230Hostage? Every trade has happened already. No one gave a shit where LeOld would go LMAO
>>156705230>holds the off season hostageThe only major player without a team is Jalen Duren.The other boomer free agents like Westbrick, Beal, Defrozen, etc. are just going to jump where Lebum goes.

>>156703218You're never going to hit soccer levels of popularity because even aside from body types the barrier to entry for soccer is a ball and some flat-ish ground. Basketball needs a court and hoops and is a lot harder to do ad hoc as a result, which means fewer kids doing it, which means fewer great players.
>>156708398On the other hand, basketball players are probably the highest level athletes in the world. Messi is a bird boned subhuman, you can't get away with that in basketball.
>>156708457>basketball players are probably the highest level athletes in the worldlol no they would die in a decathalon. basketball players are just overpaid retards playing a child's game.

>>156704364Yao was 7'6" and if his feet weren't made of glass, he would have been a superstar.
>>156708543yeah, of course, because you gotta have fast twitch and extreme endurance. that's elite. basketball players rely much more on fast twitch, tons of breaks, and being physical outliers in terms of limb dimensions.
>>156708496Basketball incorporates all types of athleticism you would need in a "declathon" anyway. Haaland is viewed as a genetic freak giant while he's Tyler Herro sized lol
The legendary Professor X once said:" Mutants. Since the discovery of their existence they have been regarded with fear, suspicion, often hatred. Across the planet, debate rages. Are mutants the next link in the evolutionary chain or simply a new species of humanity fighting for their share of the world? "
>>156708582yeah sure let's see some nba players 1500m times lol
>>156708572>fast twitch and extreme enduranceWhich are polar opposites. The more fast twitch muscle fibre you have the harder it is to recover your muscles and overall stamina. >>156708594>Lets see Michael Phelps in a sprint>Lets see Floyd Mayweather doing high jump!!!Great point bro
Basketball players have excellent cardiovascular fitness, but it's optimized for intermittent effort rather than continuous running.Taller, heavier athletes expend more energy per mile.Running economy matters. Even elite basketball players often have less efficient distance-running mechanics than ideal
>>156708659>Which are polar opposites. The more fast twitch muscle fibre you have the harder it is to recover your muscles and overall stamina.glad i could help you understand what makes them more elite than nba players
What if I said Kawhi is innocent?What if I told you the truth is beyond anything you could have ever imagined?
if you think prime westbrook wouldn't smash a decathlon then you don't know shit about basketball
michael phelps basically had the specialized body dimensions combined with balanced fast twitch and endurance, a phenomenal athlete but i'd put him closer to a basketball player
>>156708681You didn't prove shit dumbass. In the NBA you have to have explosive power or next level footwork while also having the requisite endurance. If you're missing any one of athleticism, size, or endurance required, you're never being more than a 7-10th man in a rotation
I just saw Wembanyama dunking on fools at the public basketball court a few blocks from me while walking home
Is toronto gonna get raped by the nba if they sign kawhi. Why has it taken a year to dish out a punishment.
>>156700060nigga looking like KATs dad
>>156708724I didn't know Wemby did anything that wasn't on film or photographed
Opinions on Luka Dončić's athleticism are divided. He is not traditionally athletic, lacking the vertical bounce and explosive burst associated with players like Ja Morant or Anthony Edward
>>156708717there's no fuckin endurance in basketball lmfao they play 38 minutes over a fucking 2.25 hour game.
imagine an athletic competition where you only have to run 25% of the race, that's a fuckin relay what a joke
>>156708755This might be one of the most retarded things ive seen on this board and that's saying a lot
>>156708750Luka is like 31 in basketball years, his athleticism has diminished.
>>156708781i saw a guy shit his pants last year so fuck you buddy
>>156708755Only 34.1 minutes per game for Wemby this last playoffs College is even worse. #1 overall pick A. Dybantsa only played 25.5 mpg last season for BYU

Heero did nothing wrong

is it true wemby choking caused multiple losses in the finals
>>156715991If they choked only 80% as hard as they actually did they wouldve swept this series
I dont think people realize how insane Jaylen Brown is gonna be with VJ and Maxeys spacing.This is gonna be lethal, NO ONE can stop the Sixers this year with Embiid healthy.Sixers>Knicks for 2027.
>>156716354>with Embiid healthy.
>>156689052Finals MVP is such a meme reward because of shit like thisRegular Seaosn MVP is a meme because of players like Harden winning itIt should be Playoffs MVP, or even better, a full season MVP combined both RS and Playoffs
>>156716354i'm thinkin 2nd round exit
>>156689848I don't think I ever liked a player that fully sucked but Jonathon Simmons was one of my favorite players despite having a limited game and only having like 2 respectable seasons. I just liked his playstyle and he brought a different style to SA back then.
>>156716503The older i get the less of a shit i give about all these awards.Same with football and the ballon dor. Why the fuck did i care about what a bunch of journalists think whos better between messi and ronaldo.Individual stats and trophies are all that matter. Jimmy Butler has no 1st team selections and only one 2nd team but he led his team to 2 finals, I rate him higher than many on the 75th anniversary team
>>156716354Shitgoon playing basketball like he landed in the Normandy 80 years ago
>>156716582Yep, same.>Same with football and the ballon dorTo be fair baboon door never really mattered, only Penaldo and Riggi fans cared about it>Jimmy Butler has no 1st team selections and only one 2nd team but he led his team to 2 finals, I rate him higher than many on the 75th anniversary teamCorrect and Based. I can't take anyone who takes PG over JB seriously
>>156716354>Embiid>healthy
Who's the best hypothetical player of all time?
NBA STREETS REMAKE WHEN
>>156716795Len Bias or Wilt with modern training
>>156716942My Interest in basketball started with NBA street and died with NBAS3. Seriously why does no one cater to the arcade style sports "fans" any more? I guess that's what happens when literally every new game costs a south American countries annual GDP to make.
>>156716795Michael Jordan with an elite 3 point shot
>>156717345not bad but i would go with shaq with steve nash's free throw %
>>156716354This just tells me JB has awful shot selection
>>156716354Embleed and brown dont fuck wit each other
Are there any more white free agents for the Snowtime Lakers?
>>156717916why would tracy mcgrady know anything about what's going on
>>156717916This is now the second time a nigga embiid hates joins his team
>>156716354yeah can't wait to see what Brown can do on a team that shoots threes
>>156717916These niccas proving Jaylen Brown right.
>>156717916mfw Embiid dives into Brown knees and end him forever
>>156717916Desu Jaylen should be the #1 on that team, Embitch hasn't been to the ECF or the Finals for that matter and he came around the same time as Brown.If he or any other Shitxer starts bitching, trade them.
>[McMenamin] Austin Reaves on Luka Doncic: “He’s one of my best friends on this planet. I talk to him almost every single day. He sends me videos of his golf swing and asks me what he can do to get better and I tell him I’m not a coach”Did Reaves just leak confirmation that alien life exists on other planets?
>>156718098if i was a reporter i'd press him on this
>>156718098can't believe these two white bois run the Lakers now
>>156718092Nah JB the new nigga on the team. He has no clout. He has no pull. Embiid will want a gatorade and JB will say "Yes sir! Which flavor?" every single time.
>>156716659Didn't Donte get into it with Brunson's dad before he got traded? What ever happened there?
>>156716795manute bol with AI handles
>>156704646he is already the best player in the league because of his defense. if he can fix his conditioning and harper learns how to throw lobs he will end up the GOAT.
Why doesnt jokic share his new ozempic prescription with luka
>>156718098These two are the least obvious gay lovers in the league
>>156719247he is afraid he will be better than him if he loses weight which could be true to be honest
>>156700374The off season is when they do their steroids
Hypothetically, now that Bron is gone, how many years of no rings before Lakers fans would turn on Luka? 2? 3?
>>156719247ozempic is bad for athletes
>>156717976Because apparently he's close with brown
Watching the media desperately try to keep LeBron out of Philly is hilarious. With the exception of Charles Barkley, they're all saying>Going to Philadelphia minimizes his chances for ring #5But the moment he signs we all know they'll pivot to>Lebrons legacy is tarnished because he joined the superteam in Philly
>>156719932philly is going to be a trainwreck and people are just trying to save Lelegacy from it
>>156719975Right, just like I said. And if he signs there the pivot will be to the superteam, as I already said
>>156719751if you look past the content of their character, it's pretty obvious the lakkkers aren't even trying to compete
>>156719975>a trainwreckthey'll make it in the schizophrenic eastern conference
>>156718098we kinda already knew, but to hear verbal confirmation from such a high level figure does give it more credibility against the nonbelievers
>>156717916>Embleed and brown dont fuck wit each otherNot a problem, consider this very positive trade for both the 76ers and the Nuggets. It is a bit negative for the Spurs since they are losing the 2022-23 NBA Clutch Player of Year award winner De'Aaron Fox but salary and all that haha...
>>156720134the east is good. Damn near every team got better except the knicks and boston. Philly is also cursed
>>156720475No one is trading for Fox after the unbelievably shit playoffs he had
>>156717916This of course, after 76ers president Mike Gansey said Embiid was on board with the trade and excited for the season ahead
>>156720475If the Celtics can't land Jamal Murray with Jaylen Brown what makes you think the Nuggies will accept Embitch's broken body and Fox?
>>156720585>>156720720Obvious bait bros...
>Carter "Handsome Gentleman" Bryant
>>156716354If this counts layups it's a worthless statistic.
>>156716354Brown played 90% of his career with a 5 out lineup.
>>156720475Damn Brasil you actually cooked with this one
Dirk but black
>>156721632Rasheed Wallace, but he was way lazier and hood than Dirk.
>>156689848Andy varejao, Matthew delivadova, and delonte west (for obvious reasons).. likes Andy and matt because they were shit, but had the most hustle out of everyone on the team. They were the soul of their teams for Cleveland anyway
>>156704537I disagree. I'm 6'6 320 lbs. I ain't healthy at all nigga
2011 game 4….Kobe got swept scored only 17 with 5 turnovers and a -29 and Jason Terry dropped 32 and NOBODY talks about this shit
>>156722155lose weight you lardass
>>156722374Make me faggot
>>156708556That's like the most common flaw with freakishly tall people, right after sucking at basketball because they're an uncoordinated 7'4" jabroni
>>156709033candace parker be like, hol up
>>156721140He should teach all the spurs players sign language so that their opponents will never know what their gameplan is
AVRA
Why does he look like kerr
>>156723090Don't tell Steph that I said this but Ayesha looks like she would be the biggest slut in a party
>>156723123She looks like one of the fun sluts too, absolute semen demon
>>156723123she just looks hispanic
>>156723025is this the punished Shai arc?If so, could be kino
>>156723025Wemby really made this nigga shave his head
>>156717082They do, it’s just nothing too great anymore. NBA The Run, Mario Sports games, a handful of futbol ones. There might be some decent indie ones out there but I’ve not bothered to look because the licensing makes up at least some of the fun I think. Either way, the stuff that does come out is jank or just plain soulless.
No disrespect to Tyler Herro but the numbers don’t lie when it comes to who’s more valuable to the Miami Heat organization.

>>156723963>No disrespect to Tyler Herro It's okay, you can disrespect Tyler Herro. He literally hasn't done shit, he doesn't deserve respect
>>156724106This. Fuck him. I'm glad Bam went upside his head. It was a long time coming.
>>156724106Tyler Herro is an NBA All Star.

I just want the season to hurry up and start so I can watch Melo x Ant post-game interviews
I actually like summer league. Feels like players want to be there and the games are more important. The play is higher than college, so its not that bad to watch. I wish I could catch some games in person.
>>156725257I went to a pre season game of the raptors in 2018 in hongcouver, was surprised kawhi actually played. Got really lucky

Lebron James Jr is already making GM moves now that he took over the squad and kicked his dad off the team.
Bronsexuals, how are yall feelin?
>>156726887Feels like he's doing a tour with the teams he's "considering". I bet he hoped this would get more coverage and he could take hostage of the offseason.
>>1567268870 chance lebozo goes to the 76ers and lives in philadelphia, i think the going back to cleveland shit is overrated, he's probably going to warriors or heat
>>156726688me and lebron only got 1 thing in common, and that's growin up with penny as our favorite player, so sybau
>>156726688A while back I was reading abt Drake getting robbed in like 2009 by a guy named "Soccerties" I was like wtf kind of nameI realized later the parents were probably trying to spell "Socrates"
>>156727077kek
>>156727077it would be funny if he ended up being the best player on USA's soccer team
>>156726887We can complain abt him milking this but every cocktease post about where he goes is another bump that keeps divegrass from burying us
>>156727165divegrass vs divewoodrare w for the NBA when divegrass makes the nba look physical and makes the flopping and rigging look less bad
>>156727165he's just like me fr fr
>>156727165lebron is such a meme
>>156727077We take spelling for granite in this doggy dog world
>>156727404Kek ngl footballers' flops are oscar level. First time i saw it, i thought the guy tore an acl or something. 1 min later, he's running and jumping like normal. And then on the replay, it's just a slight bump on his foot.
Wilson is a freak
Gotta love seeing kids get stretchered off the concrete floor of the las vegas gym after suffering life-altering injuries trying out for an NBA team they 99% would not have made in the first place. I hope the NBA takes care of them.
im watching a g-league basketball game to fall asleep to, between “CHI” and “UTAH”, and some guy had a heart attack and the game has been stopped for 15+ minssorry not a basketball fan but thought id mention it here
>>156727925What happened I did not see it? Did he run into the back?
>>156727933saw this too. he got wheeled off and they are deciding to finish the last 2 minutes of the game
>>156727935No idea. They obviously don't want to replay it and it's the summer league so I doubt anyone clipped. Seemed like they were treating it like a head injury.
>>156727925>>156727933sad stuff. hope hes gonna be alright, just saw a replay and he grabbed his left side and crumpled to the floor. wonder if his lung collapsed
>>156727933looked non contact. he did take a slight bump while driving but nothing major. probably an internal/organ injury
>>156727982They did replay it once but twice the Jazz player had a horrible collarbone injury. That Bulls player might have bumped him and felt something in his body.
yns our response?
>>156728048didnt Furphy get AIDS after this or something?
>>156728048>eurowe don't claim that nigga
>>156727933brutal
nuggets' roster as it stands
>>156728224might be 50 wins first found exit
>>156728224>not even at the minimum players yet
>>156728224the n*gge*s are cooked. It's hilarious that you can directly point to the 3 spots they fucked up at. One of them shouldn't even be in the nba
completely forgot bruce brown is no longer in the roster and no team has picked him up yet. he wasn't as good compared to his championship year but for vet min you can do a lot worse.
>>156728224They traded MPJ just to still have one of the shallowest rosters in the league
>>156728277ben simmons is a sad player
>>156728299>By waiting until the 2027 offseason, Jokic aims to forgo a four-year, $278 million deal in favor of a groundbreaking five-year, $359.5 million supermax contract extension, as reported by ESPN’s Dave McMenamin.it's even wose if they want to keep jokic they have to pay him like 72mpy for 5 fucking years as if their salary bill isn't bloated enough already
>>156728224Has bringing over a Europeana vet ever made a substantial difference in a team's season? The best in recent memory was Teodosic, and he was just a good 6th man.
>>156728329Naw he's living his best life
>>156728224You either trade Gordon or Cam, the two players who actually have trade value and get back some draft capital, or tank for the next 3 years until you can resign Murray to the 30m or less he's worth (which has a high chance of backfiring since their next 3 or so picks are top 5 protected or OKC).Or you just trade Jokic at his peak value and restart the rebuild, or hope he takes a paycut during his extension next year ( he won't ). In pretty much all cases the team's window is closed and they have pretty much zero hope of competing against OKC or the Spurs.
>[Charania] Free agent forward Ziaire Williams has agreed on a one-year, $3 million deal to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers, sources tell ESPN.WE GOT SOMEBODY
>>156728400Team has been mismanaged so badly, it might indeed be the shrewd move to trade Jokic. They're lucky they got one.
>>156728390I think he's a scumbag though, he already scammed the league for years and now he's saying he wants to play so he can continue to scam someone. Bro really wants to extend his bench street clothes fashion tour
>>156701374i done been read that book nigga shitmein kamp? fuck nigga i read that bitch and i was like shit we finna gone campin and i called up errbody to go campin and kyrie ghosted our ass and that nigga mosgov dodged because somethin bout the author bein his country's mortal enemy idk bro it's just about campin what a bitch ass nigga then he lied and said we didn't call him fuck that

Been playing Witch on the holy night and shit has been great. Carry the hell on...
>>156691618This is so embarrassing. Like how
>>156728803>>156691618The dumbest most awful coach imaginable. This is what happens when you DEI hire some 35 year old black guy who "vibes" with players.A high school coach could figure out you burn the clock instead of chucking 3s immediately.
>>156728803KAT subbed back in and the refs forgot to keep calling fake fouls on him
>>156728803wembgassed somehow managed to play 40+ mins in a game where they were winning by 20 for 90% of the time. It's honestly kind of shocking how much of a pass the coach got for that series
