>>157382374Thanks based bob
>>157382431Basketball has become pay to play. Every top high school prospect has a trainer. However the best players don’t pay for anything, and those are the players going to the NBA. It’s the middle ground guys. Mostly guys who play D2 or D1 but don’t make the NBA

I'm not using the (((other))) thread
i guess it's not entirely suprising that the NBA has become this corrupt, but it's hilarious that roger goodell did more to punish deflategate than adam "yes harder daddy ballmer" silver will do to thisguess they needed a literal smoking gun, the fact that a fucking jumbotron company (why the fuck would one of these ever endorse a player?) endorsed one player and never announced it, wasn't enough
>>157392576Silver is in on the fix. The "2nd Apron" is just a tactic they use to cook the books and money launder. If you think the NBA is a legitimate competition in 2026, you are not paying attention. I wouldn't be shocked if the league is getting detailed instructions from the gambling companies for each game
>>157388749There's a reason why it's considered the most laughable HoF, even more than baseball's (which is a monumentally impressive feat).I saw even Doc fucking Rivers got in. Best known as the guy who won one ring when he had the only superteam in the league at the time, then spent the next 20 years going to teams with prebuilt championship-level rosters and made every single one of them uncompetitive
fuck jeanie buss lolthey told her she couldnt be governer and she got the sadz and then sold the team lol based jews screwing the goyim once again
my favourite doc rivers story is when that one black guy got the bucks job doc then went to giannis to undermine him until giannis demanded that the black coach be fired and doc hired instead
>>157392830>Black coach be firedThat's Adrian Griffin
>>157392799jeanie buss doesn't have 4 votes.
Is he the most powerful man in the NBA right now?
>>157392902why doesn't he just buy the entire league and every team?
>>157392879from the last sale the scuttlebut was it was a 3-3 tie that she then decided to vote for a sale to make it 4-3. Its suspected that the two younger Buss kids who she hates were the two votes who didnt want to sell. So why now is she for selling the 17% when before she didnt want to sell? I suspect its because either the two kids she pissed off forced the sale as a fuck you to her or she was told she wouldnt be governer anymore so she decided fuck it we dont need to keep the 17%
>>157392902He already is. His net worth is more than the other 29 owners combined if I'm not mistaken
>>157393058>So why now is she for selling the 17% when before she didnt want to sell?17.8% of $10,000,000,000 is $1,780,000,000$1,780,000,000 divided six ways is $296,666,666 each17.8% of $12,500,000,000 is $2,225,000,000$2,225,000,000 divided six ways is $370,833,333 eachit's called selling high. hope this helps.
>>157382431Yep
Do you gals think I can make my money back or even turn profit if I buy half season sixers tickets and sell most of them? Anyone here have experience ticket reselling?
>>157401600they're taking non-refundable deposits to gauge interest, and they won't tell you the price until your appointment. basically it's gonna be $2,000/seat for nosebleeds for 22 games. do you think you can make a profit on that?
>>157401600Sit behind me anon
>>157401600Sell those 2 Boston, Knicks, and OKC and that'll already cover half
>>157401600Yeah but remember to save up for playoffs. They make you buy every game before the end of the regular season. You'll have to sell most of your games if you want to make a noticeable profit. At most you can go to 1-2 games
>>157401600>>157404019Make sure to buy two seats. If you buy 1 you aren't gonna sell it. Save up for the playoffs now. That shit ain't cheap but that's your chance to make big bucks
LeBron James having 116 playoff wins without an All-NBA teammate is one of the most absurd stats in NBA history.He didn’t just carry teams; he dragged entire franchises to the finish line by himself for a decade. Absolutely unreal.
>>157404069>one of the most absurd stats in NBA history.Until you realize neither did his competition. Only little kids like yourself forget the Leastern Conference was complete dogshit from 1999 until a couple years ago. The entire Leastern Conference except the Cavs at one point would have missed the playoffs if they were in the West

how did the bronsexual find our non-jewish thread
>>157405105Who knows
>>157407555
Only 3 players in NBA history have ever reached 20,000 points, 7,000 rebounds and 7,000 assists:LeBron James, Oscar Robertson and Russell Westbrook.Lower the bar to 20K / 6K / 6K, and you add Chris Paul, James Harden, John Havlicek, Clyde Drexler and Kobe Bryant.But then there’s LeBron. He’s currently sitting at roughly 43,000 points, 12,000 rebounds and 12,000 assists.So technically, LeBron has reached the 20K-6K-6K club TWICE.
>>157410904>So technically, LeBron has reached the 3pts-1ass-1reb club 12000 times.LIKE OMG WHO THE HELL CARES
>>157411309Bitch nigga
Ralph Lawler has been calling NBA games since the 1970s. He watched Bill Russell, George Mikan, Wilt Chamberlain and Oscar Robertson play. After decades in the league, he said LeBron James was the best player he had ever seen. When someone who has seen it all says that, it means something.
Can yall niggas decide which thread to use

>>157413297I'm rewatching the 2016 season right now thoughbeithaps
LeBron James has played the most seasons in NBA history. But in those 23 years, he has never once asked for a trade. Every contract fulfilled. Every obligation met. No one associates him with loyalty, but how much weight does it hold when you honor every contract you’ve signed.
>BREAKING: Cleveland, Denver and the Clippers have agreed on a trade sending Peyton Watson to the Cavaliers, Max Strus to LA, and an unprotected 2031 Cavs first-round pick and a 2032 Kings second-rounder to the Nuggets, sources tell ESPN. >Watson will sign a new four-year, $88 million deal to join the Cavaliers, plus a player option and a trade kicker.What is a trade kicker?
>>157413538>>156417121close enough

>As part of the deal, the Cavaliers are sending Tre Mann, the 2027 second-rounder from the Clippers and cash to the Washington Wizards for Cam Whitmore, sources said. The Wizards also are sending Julian Reese to the Nuggets, who will waive Reese off his two-way deal.>Mann fills a positional need as the Wizards have searched for an additional guard in recent weeks -- while the Cavaliers gain a smaller salary in Whitmore to create optionality under the first apron.this multi-club deal is annoying to track
So the Nuggets are selling? With Jokic on the roster? 10 years of giving our GOAT the worst rosters of often-injured, damaged-goods crap players and now this. Why do they hate our GOATic so much?
Just trade GOATic to my Bullies.
What went wrong?
>Nugshits trying to sign defrozenLMAOOOOOOOOO
>>157413960They won't need to, he's a free agent at the end of the season. They can shed his salary for free!
>>157413955they have no assets nor cap. They did about as well as you could do this offseason given the circumstances. The Murray+Braun deals have killed the team
>>157414124gordon's extension has done more damage than murray'si'm giving braun a benefit of a doubt he was struggling with injuries last season but AG is a lost cause, he's not getting any younger but still contracted until 2029.
>>157413989*hits pipe*
>>157414151AG is fine because it's just good starter money and he's a genuinely irreplaceable position and fit, injuries be damned. Braun and Murray's deals were bad the moment the ink dried. They're probably a bottom 1/3rd backcourt without even factoring in the dollar amount
FUCK THE LEBRON HATERS... there i said it kek
I turn 22 today and I've accomplished nothing with my lifeGo heat!
Braun either needs to become an All-NBA defender or start shooting 40% 3 next season. This is just embarrassing. I would be ashamed of myself if I heard that my contract is one of the worst in the league and that no one wants to trade for me. Do players not have an ego? What's going on
Kobe Bryant has to be the most overrated Athlete of All time. Yall gotta relax, he not like thatRIP tho.
>>157414292Not like Watson really moved the needle either, he is barely healthy enough to play half the season
>>157414302He's the last truly great American athlete: he won his way on his terms. He embodied the American spirit and his death spelt the end of America. If you can't see this you do not know ball.
>>157413648That Mobley contract is hillarious. He's a $30 million a year player, at most.
>>157414302Letting zoomers on the internet was such a mistake
>>157392902>somehow is able to decode which punishments he will or won't accept
Watson gets so much glaze for a guy who played good for 10 whole games his whole life
>>157414420cavs will experience jokicless watson on 22mpy and it'll be glorious
>>157388749Him and Doc getting in discredit the HoF validity and aura. Guy had 3 great years and 1 other okay year in the most broken system even then couldn't stay healthy after.
>>157414291same but 24
>>157414291>>157414454You're both babies: I didn't make my first million in a year until I was 29
>>157414420he has great measurables and irrational confidence. It's the kind of guy you bet on. The nugs straight up made the wrong decision between him and Braun, or at least they could have paid them both if they negotiated better all around
>>157414291>>157414454Happy birthday bros>and I've accomplished nothing with my lifePretty much no one has at this point in their life.
>>157414525Braun can't get moved, no one wants that contract. Ironically he's making more than Watson now.
LeBron James sucked his sons shit off of diddies shit encrusted penis
>>157413648shit is that super Mario the goat
>>157414679allegedly the Cavs are helping out Hezonja by buying out his Real Madrid contract so he can then be cut later and join a dubai team
Hm...
Name a GOAT candidate in any sport that has been as handicapped by his team as Jokic. Mike Trout?
>>157414758Barry Sanders
>>157414758bruno fernandes of manchester united
>>157414528Okay but the difference is that its actually basically over for me, I have no prospects and a ton of debt.
42 years old. Controls the NBA. Controls his own destiny. A billionaire. There isn't much left to prove. At this point, everything else is legacy. The pressure isn't about validating greatness it's about adding to it.
>>157414778Just move to a country that doesn't extradite and restart life there>>157414795Your daddy isn't the GOAT, Bronny-kun. That would be MJ.
I’m so god damned tired of rangz this rangz that when evaluating individual players. It’s a team sport. If LeBron didn’t go team hopping and super team building he’d probably have a few rings less. If KD didn’t go to the warriors Steph might have a couple less. And yet, if those things had happened, they would have been identical basketball players, but people would talk about them in a different light. If Denver put an insane team around jokic for many years in a row he’d probably have a couple more rings, once again people would talk about him differently, but he’d be the same player. It’s so retarded
>>157414778you could always just go back to india
>>157414758Ernie Banks
>>157413648Yeah, harden is most likely gone in that case
>>157401856Kek
You're know remember Jim Robert Butler III
>>157414291Happy birthday. I'm 30 and just about to go back to school for a masters. You have more time

The nuggets really just gonna let Watson go
>>157416635Gotta get below that luxury tax!
>The state of the Denver Nuggets.Pfft HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA.
so wheres Jokic going next year? No way he goes back if management doesnt improve the team?
>>157416817He doesn't care anymore. He's going to sign the 300+ million extension and cruise to retirement.
>>157416418That nigga been on my mind....
>>157416817he'll be back at euroleague
>>157416860Maybe I just have the wrong attitude it is much rather just chill in a smaller market and make insane money esp after already winning one. The fans and media are generally just happy you are there, there’s less pressure. His team is ass so no one’s gonna be blaming him for shit. Less fame after retirement which I consider a good thing.
now that the dust has settled, how can we evaluate lebron james's lakers tenure?i feel like it's hard to look at it as anything except lukewarmapart from the bubble ring (which many perceive as a mickey mouse ring but thats a separate conversation) the lakers really failed to put together a decent roster around himreally the two best players he played with were AD who never played because of injury and luka who came in way too late to make a differencesurely with eight years on the team you would've hoped for more than one finals appearance?and he was still relatively young and playing well for most of it
>>157416933Jokic is a generational player. Imagine if he played for a team like the Lakers, Knicks, Bulls, Rockets, Mavericks. Dude would be a billionaire in a few years
>>157417090I'd say its barely a success story and that's being generous.
>>157417090LeMickey missed the playoffs.
>>157417090>the lakers really failed to put together a decent roster around himLeGM was washed by the time he got to the Lakers. First he decided that an injury prone soft big was gonna be his superstar buddy. Then, after winning the biggest asterisk known in sports history, got rid of important role players that helped him win said asterisk. And finally he reached his peak of retardation when he traded for WestbrickBy the time the Lakers managed to get rid of him and bring in some decent role players he was washed on the court too. In 2023 he was completely responsible for the Lakers losing to the Nuggets. Every game was close but he was so fucking garbage in the 4th quarter they couldn't win one gameAfter that conference finals he realized he wasn't gonna win anything ever again and just wanted to statpad
For those saying LeBron’s Lakers tenure was a failure… he has as many Conference Finals appearances (2) and Finals appearances (1) as BOTH Nikola Jokic and Giannis’ entire careers. Winning in this league is hard. The standards for LeBron are just different.
>>157417467What makes LeBron’s Lakers tenure impressive isn’t just the championship. It’s that he arrived at 33 years old to a team that had missed the playoffs for five straight seasons and wasn’t a contender. Most Lakers legends either joined an existing contender or spent their entire prime building their legacy in LA. LeBron didn’t have either advantage. Despite that, he won a championship, Finals MVP, made 7 All-NBA teams, and remained an elite player well into his late 30s.
What LeBron, Diddy, and His disciples did to Bronny was disgusting and wicked. Evil people.
>>157418276There's a reason he's called Bummy. And it's not because of his hoop skills...
>>157418276#justice4mamba
Thoughts?
>>157419073I've seen this being meme'd on twitter about 10 million times.
>>157417756>The standards for LeBron are just different.thats true and thats not his fault but at the same time when you are in the GOAT convo it's something that needs to be mentioned because everything about your career is scrutinized
>>157419073he strikes me as a pseud but what do i know, maybe he knows what he's talking aboutalthough anyone talking about>social justiceraises an eyebrow because its a pretty meaningless phrase
its misogynistic that this is called nba and not mnba

>>157419296then why arent they 50% of the players
That LeBron hate be sooooooo crazy fr what did he do to yall? Is it that he’s the greatest basketball player ever? Is it that he add more attributes to a team? What is it?
>>157419335We raise our girls to think they can't play in the NBA. We need to start reinforcing positive stereotypes.

Ibaka is traded instead of Harden. Keeping the Russ-KD-Harden core intact.What changes?
>>157419915was he the original zestlord?
>>157420077they win, they could have won more despite that anyway. if KD didn't leave that summer, al horford was going to join OKC as a free agent.
>>157420077The Nuggets of the 80s. They score alot but cant play defense so the opponents also score alot
>>157420124Could they beat 2017 Spurs and Cavs? They beat the 2016 Spurs, but that was the season Kawhi was being held back on offense to make LMA comfortable. 2017 Spurs was another beast. That was probably the best Cavs team of those times tooThere is the 2018 Rockets too
>>157420137>There is the 2018 Rockets tootheres no 2018 rockets if Harden stays
LMAOOOOOOOOOOO
>>157420170Thats actually cheap when guys like Lavine are making 50 mil
>>157420156Sure but anon said>they win, they could have won more despite that anyway.So I was already asking about the actual Thunders+Horford>>157420132I wonder if KD would have eventually made the move to the 4 or small ball 5 in the Thunders too. Something like>Russ>Harden>Andre Roberson>KD>Ibaka/Adams/Enes Freedom (he/him still)
>>157420170> We want James to return so he can retire at home> W-We already have James
>>157420137OKC in 2016 had GSW on the brink and were 3-1 up until choking, they could go toe to toe with them and if they could go toe to toe with GSW, it literally took klay thompson setting a record for made 3's for GSW to beat OK. a cavs series was very possible to winthen KD to GSW changes everything and it's hard to predict. I think a retooled OKC with horford could beat GSW in 2017 and against the finals, a good chance to beat the cavs 2018 rockets is hard because they literally deserved to win that series and again set that impossible record for missed 3s, bro GSW had some kind of voodoo damn
>>157420199replacing Ibaka in his prime with Horford wouldnt changed anything
Nuggets will sign DeRozan and Ben Simmons, just watch
>>157420207feels like if they sign them Jokic might just leave before the season starts
>>157420170The Cavs will never achieve anything because of the money they're wasting on this dude
the cavs are really good on paper
>>157382374Watching this. The commentary is much better than it is now. Only Tim Ledger knows what he’s talking about now
The Nuggets giving Braun that god awful contract really killed the Nuggets.fucking beautiful.
>>157382374Everybody laugh at the Denver Nuggets. From first round exit to dumping their bench for picks and doing nothing with them. lmao another wasted season of Jokics prime. Chokic fans, do you understand now why Lebron kept team hopping?
>>157420362That contract closed their window.
>>157417090>how can we evaluate lebron james's lakers tenure?He was the Lakers savior. If it wasn't for Lebron your bum team still would have had a core of Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram and Kyle Kuzma. Lebron got you a ring, AD and Luka.
>>157420170is it fully guaranteed though
>>157420199Fair >>157420205Eh, Horford adopted the long ball before Ibaka, so maybe that would've been a plus for them

>>157421028ThanksJokic still looking fat
Canada would beat both these bum teams
wembitch is scared to shoot or put the ball on the floor being guarded by jovic kek
>>157420901he had bad injury luck lately. It happens. The point is you can't easily replace his role or fit so you just have to deal with it because you can't contend otherwise. This is different from a Murray who is one of the most easily replaceable kinds of players in the league, while also has notable injury history, or Braun who anybody with eyes can tell is a 6th man while getting the freest shots in the league and visibly shits himself when the lights get bright yet they gave both of them ridiculous contracts that they've had to gut what was left of the team for. AG's health is a distant 3rd at worst problem
>>157421011nigga moves like a baby giraffe why the fuck would him becoming even more unbalanced scare me lmfao
>>157421011>inb4 he never stops growing
honestly Im watching this france serbia match, and its possible jokic is better tham wemby next season, jokic is simply so much more diverse and better of an offensive player, and once you dont let wemby camp the paint, his defensive value goes down specifically, and he cant do anything on offense but shoot the 3 and finish lobs, but against enough size you can make him play from the perimeterobviously jokic has his weaknesses too, but you can make the argument that the nuggets shooting was outlier bad in the wolves series (kind of a stretch honestly, jokic was just genuinely bad against rudy) the point is i forgot how good jok is
this is why i appreciate the nba because these niggas are just bricking free throws, bricking open shots, going absolutely wild losing the ball

Wrong vid >>157421742
>>157421748shot wasn't quite open that's why wemby pump faked because the dude was right there and all he needed to do was put his hand up and jump but wemby also knew that and that it would get him wide open if the defender did that. his pump faked have also been working all game. the problem is that this time the defender was incredibly disciplined and didn't jump at the fake
>>157421777He had plenty of time to shoot over him plus he is 7ft6 plus he could get the foul. He also had 9s on the clock, could've easily reset and found a better shot. Just low IQ play overall.
france has terrible roster construction and shitty coaching and serbia could barely hold them off

Big Dicks are overrated. Obviously you don’t want micropenis either, but anywhere from 5-7 inches is solid size. What really matters is character. Is there some shape to it? Is it circumcised (the way I prefer) ? girthy shafts are a big bonus. Or if you have a cute little birthmark or even a scar on your cock that’s really hot too and adds a lot of character.

>>157426532Damn no wonder the raptors couldn't keep neither OG or Pascal
Losing Watson doesn't really matter. He had a 1 month hot stretch but $90 million is a lot of money for that, also recalling he had inflated stats when Jokic was out: someone 'had to score'. It's a little like Beal averaging 30+ two straight seasons because his other teammates were g leaguers so he was the only one scoring, or Lillard the year before the Bucks trade when his teammates were hurt and he had the unlimited green light. How did that work out for the Suns and Bucks once they traded for them off of ccareer years'?Watson also suffers the same problem that a lot of the Nuggets do: not available when they need him. Braun, his replacement, had a down year last year and struggled through injuries himself but had really great year before. That unprotected 2031 1st from tha Cavs could also be flipped for a star if they become available. Overall I think it was a great trade for Denver.
>>157426532The Mobley one is the worst, $50 million a season for an 18-9 tweener who is afraid of contact.
>>157426532In context those Paolo and Wagner contracts don't look too bad.
>>157428046Butler? AD? Murray?
>>157426579Lmao that AR used to be in Chobley convos
>>157428122They've all shown at their peak they are worth it, it's just a matter of injuries with AD. Butler has almost always been healthy until the ACL tear last year. And I know this general hates Murray but he's a hooper.
>>157428152Availability is the most valuable trait
Lebron has so much more longevity than MJ it's not even funny. Some people think longevity doesn't mean much when comparing players. Well, look at it from this perspective. If you could hypothetically add one of two players over the duration of their entire careers onto your team and you KNEW what you were gonna get, wouldn’t you choose to have the guy on your team that had 15 GREAT seasons instead of the guy that had 11 GREAT seasons?
>>157428035This team is so unbelievably fucked it's not even worth analyzing anything anymore. After Watson left the available players on their bench now are Spencer Jones, Julian Strawther, Marvin Bagley, DaRon Holmes, Tyus Jones and Zeke Nnaji. That's it. And this team not only doesn't have a top 5 starting squad they are also the only team in the entire league that is in the second apron right nowThings are so bad that both Jokic and the Nuggets should ask for a trade to happen before the season even starts
Jokic will sink with the Denver ship till his last breathI kind of respect it.
>>157425965https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wd0ZTT4n9U
>>157428294I don't think it's respectable at all if he just stays for the 360 million dollar extension he can sign next season. That's probably the cheapest and least respectable thing he can do. If he takes a huge paycut or signs with another team then that shows he doesn't just care about the money and still wants to win another championship Honestly I don't know even know how he can sign that extension anymore. They would have to let Cameron Johnson go who is like one of the last decent players this team has left. If that happens I won't even feel bad for him anymore and would even laugh at his downfall
>>157428413He won that sorry ass organization their only ring.Been with them since he got drafted and he'll retire like a king in Denver.That's how the game is supposed to be played, not team hopping like Lebron.
>>157428174I agree. It was pretty frustrating watching AD play half the season and usually miss most if not all of the playoffs while taking up 35% of the cap on a supermax. I'd of rather had Mobley or even Murray on their max over AD, they at least suit up. I think the issue is gauranteed contracts. Make only the first year gauranteed, 2nd year partial, and then any years after that non gauranteed. Because if they're on fully gauranteed they have no incentive to really take their craft seriously, get their body right to play, or adapt and re-invent their game to not get hurt as often. Also gauranteed max contracts kill teams since they hand out a max to a player who may theoretically be worth it some day, or to someone who was worth it so you retroactively pay them what their value should have been but isn't anymore.
>>157428276Yeah their roster is pretty doomed, and with Gordon barely playing these days it's even worse. Losing Brown and Hardaway is gonna sting because they were max value vet minimum guys. I don't think they'll be able to replace them.
>>157428425I don't think anyone would care if LeBron left the Cavs as long as he wasn't making superteams in his prime every 4 years
>>157426532i wonder which contract was the one that broke the league and made it the standard to pay bums 60 milthere's always a>"that guy is getting paid x and he sucks ass so i should be getting paid x+1!"contract

>>157429827Nobody else is taking the 07 Cavs to the Finals. Only so much one man can do in the face of such organizational incompetence.
I will be 66 in February 2nd I've seen MJ different eras but in comparison Bron IQ and skills are much better than MJ
>>157429935>66 years old and still hasn't seen Embiid reach the conference finals
>>157428122>>157428174nta but like he said you can at least rationalize them, at one point butler led the heat to 2 seperate finals, AD was runner up for DPOY twice and nearly won FMVP, and murray was the perfect robin to jokicmobley has literally given the cavs the same 18 and 8 that he did in his rookie year, him making 50 let alone 60 mil before even averaging 20 is highway robbery

>>157432816>mid range out of prime chucker is....good
>>157432827>leading a bench
>>157432816Yeah I think I agree, but it says a lot about the Nuggets cap and player outlook that this is the best move they could make. Like how aren't they able to snag Klay? Think how many wide open 3's he'd get playing with Jokic but he'd rather team up with aging basketball blackhole Giannis and Bam instead? Unreal. Maybe he just wants to live in Miami. But short of off loading Gordon and Brauns contract the Nuggets future looks pretty bleak. They couldn't even clear the Timberwolves, last year, and their roster is worse now. How they gonna clear OKC and the Spurs?

>>157432874>He was basically the difference in that 1st round Clippers seriesaaron gordon
Hang it in the louvre.
>>157432850Giannis has more gravity than Jokic and will give Klay more wide open shots. We literally saw THJ shooting get nullified last playoffs because the Wolves could just stick Rudy on Jokic without doubling and it worked. You can't do that shit with Giannis.
>>157432868The irony is that they're the only team in the 2nd apron rn
>>157432868they haven't really been cheap. This is like their 4th straight year in the luxury tax. It's just bad GMing ever since the title especially around the margins and now they're doomed with those Murray and Braun contracts. Bucks west
Murray getting 46 mil a year is just shitty management
>>157432891theyre quick to sign anyone to big money who they think isnt a headache
>>157432887Nahh you're trolling, no way you just said old, half step slower Giannis has more gravity than Jokic. You're either trolling or retarded
How many infant brains need to be harvested and injected into LeBrons shoulder and hips before he decides to finally fuck off?
>>157432868They're cheap at things fans want, they obviously are not cheap paying players with how shitty their salaries are
>>157432883The 1st year of this contract he was almost a 50/40/90 player, crazy to think
>>157432912I don't know why retards like you think Jokic has any gravity, let alone more than Giannis. Fucking Murray has more than him

>>157433025Chetty.......needs more time........
>>157432959>My chart said it, and although it didn't define something as obtuse as 'on ball gravity', my chart is infallibleHoly never touched a basketball in his life. I don't know how stupid you have to be to think Jokic, who can shoot any shot from anywhere and can average a 30 point triple double with basically any team, has less on-ball gravity than Giannis who is only really a threat to score withing 5 feet of the basket, and even then has to rely on his freakish athleticism to get that close, athleticism which is deteriorating.
>>157433025>let's give him a max
>>157433025hows he getting blocked by randos in a gym
>>157433100It's pretty clear where his lack of on-ball scoring confidence comes from, if he can't even score in pro am runs.
>>157433025>Getting paid more than the actual star player SGAYSay what you want about Wemby but at least he actively tries to improve himself as a star player. This is utterly weak
>>157433091>who can shoot any shot from anywhere and can average a 30 point triple double with basically any teamAnd yet the Timerberwolves guarded him in the single coverage with Rudy where he shot an abysmal 20% from 3 and only got his triple dubbies in the 2 wins he had out of 6 games. >, has less on-ball gravity than Giannis who is only really a threat to score withing 5 feet of the basketHilarious you're saying this as a Lakers fag. Did Shaq have no gravity either retard? You put 1 defender in front of Giannis and the basket and he's scoring. It's the entire reason the "Wall" strat for him became a thing, he demands 2+ defenders.What is it with Lakersfags and not knowing basketball? Or is it just the brain worms you've gotten from being a homosexual tranny fucker?
>>157433149Your whole argument is around Gobert 'locking down' Jokic but put Gobert on Giannis and it's an even worse outcome. Giannis hasn't gotten out of the 1st round on the East since his championship run. The Pacers put Myles Turner on him and he crumbled lol. As for your Shaq example, I'm not saying Giannis lacks gravity, but you can't compare current, past his prime, injury prone Giannis to prime Lakers shaq. Giannis has grabity, but nowhere near the amount Jokic has. Any reasonable observer of both could tell you that. And Jokic had a career worst 3pt outing ahainst Minny, little of that was due to Gobert. He just went cold, it happens.
>>157433149>It's the entire reason the "Wall" strat for him became a thing, he demands 2+ defendersGiannis hasn't 'demanded' two defenders in like 3 seasons. Meanwhile Jokic touches the ball and all 10 eyes from the defense are glued to him.
Damn, this is honestly pretty impressive. I didn't know he was this close. He is gonna shit on this record by the time he is retired
>>157433207Can you really call Shai a PG? These days positions don't really exist like they used to
>>157433207This is like all the fake blocks recorded at home
>>157433217True, but you can say the same about pretty much anyone in that list
>>157433184>Giannis hasn't gotten out of the 1st round on the East since his championship runBecause of injuries and Jrue being a bigger playoff dropper than even Murray.>The Pacers put Myles Turner on him and he crumbled lol??? They lost because Dame tore his achilles and his next best players were fucking Kuz and Gary "butterfingers" Trent Jr, playing against the demon time Pacers. >>157433194>Giannis hasn't 'demanded' two defenders in like 3 seasonsPacers literally had Siakam and Turner doubling him all series.> Meanwhile Jokic touches the ball and all 10 eyes from the defense are glued to him.Yeah, so he can't make his silly meme passes that only work in the regular season. Nobody is moving to double him since he's not that caliber of a scorer. Literally all of his highest scoring games have been from the Wolves leaving Rudy on him in single coverage and refusing to double him, and it fucking works, even when Rudy fouls out and they had to put Naz or Randle on him like in the 2OT Westbrick game.
>>157433217Pass first run the offense PG was an invention of NBA2K as much as reality. There's only been a handful of them and they stick out because they are mostly stars
>>157433223You think? With Magic and maybe Russ I could see that, but Kidd and Wall played the PG position in a very traditional way.
>>157433272Kidd was pretty big for a PG no? IIRC he was like 6'5 and pretty built. John Wall is a bit of a stretch I admit
>>157433285kidd is 6'4 and strong. he was average 2 guard height at the 1
>>157433207>>157433217Yeah it's kinda meaningless. He's probably gonna pass up Kobe by the end of his career, but I'd only really be impressed if he passes MJ or Dwade in the 900s.
>>157433100nicca thats daniel gafford
>>157433299>Jason Kidd is listed at 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 meters) tall.Huh true true>>157433309True, he has played for 8 years and he is barely halfway to reach them. Unless he plays like 22 years still at a top level, but I doubt it
>>157433264>Coupdn't even take the Pacers to 6 gamesGrim as hell. I guess we're also going to ignore that dreadful performance from the FT line that lose them that series and his bizzare rant at the podium after. You also don't think his injuries aren't tied into his waning athleticism? He isn't 24 anymore but he's trying to play like it, that's why he keeps getting hurt. As you age your cartilidge and joints harden more, they're less elastic and can't take the strain like they used to, which leads to soft tissue and muscle strains. Giannis just refuses to re-invent himself like all the greats do. Kobe early in his career was windmill dunking and driving all the time but became a shooter as he aged, he understood the aging curve and adjusted his game accordingly. Giannis either isn't capable of doing that or doesn't care to. Jokoc will average 30-10-10 until he's 40 because he's never relied on overpowering opponents with athleticism, although he does have the best footwork in the NBA and agility for someone his size.
>player: on the kingswashed up. bum. what is sacramento DOING???? this is why theyll never contend>signs with another teamYOOOOOO THIS IS THE MISSING PIECE! BIG MOVES!!! WOJBOMB!!!
>>157433341AI garbage
>>157433345Cope
>>157432408Derozan off the bench as a 6th man would be his ideal position. Especially now that he's on a vet min.
>>157388749As a Knicks fan I always remember his most iconic performances of punching a fire extinguisher in Miami and thus removing himself from the playoffs, bathing in red wine like insane Roman emperor, and choking his own kid out a few years ago.
>>157432408Sabotaging Vorpic with this shit. He needs to be traded ASAP
>>157433457nah nah let that bawb go out slowly and painfully
>>157433457killed the man but not the idea
>>157433472this dude blew up everything
>>157433460
>>157433502yea im afraid of the worst defender of all time
Jokic to the Bucks for Herro, Ament, Ware and 3 1sts
>>157433525Bucks deserve nothing fuck them niggas
>>157433543They have the picks and Jokic obviously wants to start fresh
when the lakers win the chip with luka, joker will win finals mvp
>>157433567What assets do the lakers have
>>157433603Full taxpayer for Jokic right after he gets cast as Gru in the live action Despicable Me retarded faggot
>>157433549Jokic is a Laker in 2 years for Reaves, future all NBA Center Kessler and the 1st round picks they can offer then.
>>157433549>fresh start with the milwaucke bucks
Jokic is never going to the lakers and if he does (he wont) I'm nullifying his ring.
>>157426532no shit contracts on our books
If LeBron retired today, the NBA wouldn't be the same. When MJ left, there was a next up. But with LeBron, there's no clear savior in sight. The league would crash and burn without the King. Who's really carrying the torch after him?
S on NuggetsS on Denver S on Mike Malone
nash and joker are the 2 worst multi time mvps of all time not even close
>>157433943>But with LeBron, there's no clear savior in sight.thats how unpopular the league is
>>157434542Meant for>>157433123
>>157432891>it's jst bad GMingThis. I still don't understand how the fuck you don't pay Tim Connelly. It wasn't the results; his roster is the one that won the title. He had beef with the coach? Well, you fired the coach, so that wasn't going to be a problem going forward. He cost too much? How much would you have paid to not be eliminated by the Minnesota teams he built specifically to fuck your shit up once ne left? Shit, just the extra revenue from not being eliminated in the first round offsets whatever salary demands he had. A terrible, inexplicable decision that continues to haunt them
The Lebron James hatred needs to be studied. People are not obliged to love him, but to hate him is crazy. It’s hard to pin down the hatred to one specific group. Trump and MAGA hate him because he’s used his platform to address important social justice issues like Black Lives Matter and educational equity. Michael Jordan fans hate him because he’s the first player since who has a legion of fans who argue that he’s better than Jordan and have some receipts to show.
