>>157480515Peak Warriors before Durant and they were "light years ahead" was so frustrating. They'd be down like 16 deep in the 3rd quarter and Steph would hit a single heat check 3 and my immediate thought we be "oh yeah they are going to win this game" and then they easily catch up and win the game by 10

So, supposedly the Blazers owner was making the team suck on purpose and making a bunch of negative decisions so he could move the team to Seattle. Is there any chance the same might be going on with the Nuggets? Considering the Nuggets is in the middle of nowhere and Vegas isn't that far away...
>>157483822the blazers owner is just trying to buttfuck them on a stadium deal and using the threat of moving as leverage. That's pretty standard. The nugs are just incompetent and cheap out on everything that's not the literal roster. They've always been like that except they used to cheap out on the roster too
>>157483822No. Nuggets are just built using the old CBA method of paying everyone after they win a ring. And now they are stuck with no more productive moves to make.
>>157483888>>157483889Makes sense
In honor of the coming NBA season. I have purchased an Lacoste Roland Garros headband 50% off township wolves for the hard court while walking the sidewalk as a pedestrian.
>>157483822Nuggets and the rest of the West are a victim of the Spurs getting the lotto rigged for them 3 times. No team building can really compete with that since it gives the Spurs multiple undervalued contracts so they have room to make blunders (until the rookie contracts are up) like trading and extending Fox that other teams don't have the luxury to do. So the question of "why don't they improve their team" is tough because they already locked in a team that would otherwise be able to compete. It's like a whole other bar was raised that otherwise wouldn't exist.
The reason why LeBron is ahead of Kobe is because Bron always made the right basketball play. Rarely played hero ball except when the situation desperately called for it.
>>157484025if only they had a decent scouting team
Redditors are crying that MPJ would kill them all for a billion dollars per redditor
>>157484025That's bullshit but I get it
>>157484061Anyone would do that
>>157484047Thats why he a bitch
>>157484056You don't need to scout when you get top 3 picks back to back to back like the Spurs. That's another aspect of team building Spurs didn't have to deal with. When the Spurs were scouting outside of the top 5 like that, they got scrubs like Sochan at #9.
>>157484025the nugs were a sinking ship before the spurs even got good. Everybody called out their shit roster building and the organization itself was infighting over it as they squandered one of the best starting 5s in the league with an absolutely horrid bench because the gm thought he was smarter than everyone even though the coach was a fuck them young dudes kind of guy who ran the starters into the ground. Truth is their run was over before they even fired Malone/Booth and Malone was right to be pissed
>bulgaria now talking about his mother's farts
>>157484148Has there ever been a more devastating aura loss? Bulgaria trully in his Wizards Jordan era. Nigga should have stayed retired.
>>157484117I remember the Spurs early rebuild drafting scrubs like Lonnie Walker and Josh Primo
Bronny James and a second round pick for PJ Washington. Who says no?
>>157484117Tell that to teams that drafted a bust
>>157484117>When the Spurs were scouting outside of the top 5 like that, they got scrubs like Sochan at #9.>who are Derrick White, Dejounte Murray, Kyle Anderson, Devin Vassell, Keldon JohnsonThese 5 alone were in a 6 or so years span. Two all stars, a solid role player, a guy who could probably be a 2nd or 3rd option else where, and the 6th man of the year. Not to mention guys like Jonathon Simmons who came out of nowhere.I'm gonna go further and say that Sochan, Primo and Lonnie could've been decent in other teams with more minutes. Both Lonnie and Primo struggled to play behind guys like DeRozan, White and other stablished role players, and Sochan was playing in every role except the one he was used to, they even wanted him to be a PG lol
>>157484220are the lakers players still pretending that hes one of them
>>157483889>>157483888Most of their major players got paid before winning a ring. Murray, Gordon, Porter and Jokic's deals were already done pre-title, Braun is the only guy who really cashed in solely because of the championship. What's fucked them is those guys ALL underperforming since then. Every single one of them has some kind of chronic injury issue and may be good or even really good on a game-to-game basis but will eventually shit the bed in a playoff series.And there's really no fix for it. The Jokic-Murray-Gordon core *is* championship caliber when they're healthy and proved it by winning a title so it's not like they were completely insane to pay them. But if they can't actually play nothing is going to work. The lack of bench depth and Braun being overpaid *are* problems but they're so conspicuous because the intended rotation just isn't there half the time any more. They won a title with DeAndre "every fucking second I'm on the floor is a net loss" Jordan backing up Jokic. Lack of depth is manageable if your stars can carry the weight. But Murray can't any more and Gordon can't even get on the floor. The team is built around three core dudes, only one of them is actually competent any more, and the other two have marginal trade value so they can't improve in any meaningful way. I can't decide if they're exceptionally fortunate to have got one title out of that core or if the shit luck is Gordon and MPJ crumbling into dust immediately after that. Gordon is only 30 fucking years old. He shouldn't be a useless lump of shit already. He's like 5 years ahead of schedule
I want to see Bronny guard Bron full court
>>157482713You guys misunderstand. LeBron is still mad about the dude banging his mom and him "keeping in touch" is so he can revel in the fact that Delonte's life is shit>Oh hey Delonte>It's LeBron, just checking in>still living in that shelter, eh?>that's too bad>sure wish I could help >nah I can't send you money bro, I, uh...I put it all in that school, you know>nah I can't let you stay with me, uh....my wife says no more house guests>sure wish there was something I could do though

Should small markets have a slightly higher cap space?
>>157484265MPJ and Murray were overpaid to begin with, but that's just how business was done back then so it's fine. The new cba fucked them in that regard and one had to eventually be moved. There was no excuse whatsoever to give Murray and Braun those contracts 4 years into the 2nd apron era which is why the team is dead in the water going forward.Back to their actual viable window 21-25, it was already cut in half with the Murray/MPJ injuries, but they were internally sabotaged in the title defense and following year. Their championship roster had steady hands up and down while being at least 8 deep for the playoffs. They then gutted all those guys, except DJ and Jackson (agent deal), and didn't even try to replace them with ring chasing vets because some genius thought a bunch of late firsts, 2nds, and undrafteds in their 1st/2nd years could contribute on a title team. They ran their starters into the dirt that year and legit had a 6 man rotation for the playoffs because you can't actually play the Picketts, Nnajes, strawthers, etc. vs serious teams. Can't play the Reggie Jacksons or DJs either as Malone quickly found out. They were 1 more quality bench player from beating Minny and who knows what happens afterThen the next season they double down on muh youngins, though they did swap out RJ for Westbrook, and the same shit happens up until Malone/Booth get fired. They squeak past a fraud clippers team and go toe to toe with a wanting to choke okc team but they had bad injury luck and continued to get nothing from the bench outside the 1 strawther game. Last season was bad injury luck and poor coaching so there's not much to say there
>>157484660As much as I agree with this entire post theres a bit of revisionist history going on.>They squeak past a fraud clippers team and go toe to toe with a wanting to choke okc team but they had bad injury luck and continued to get nothing from the bench outside the 1 strawther game.I remember how high people were on the 26 nuggets because of this fraudulent playoffs in general, not just for the nuggets but virtually everybody, the west was so fucked this year. The Wolves played a garbage Lakers team with an injured Reaves first round, and then a garbage Warriors team with an injured Steph the next round. The clippers were just bad because they had no winning players despite their record suggesting such, Kawhi is just incredibly flawed when not surrounded by a good defensive team and a good decision maker (Harden is a good passer but not great decision maker, and also very one dimensional).People were so high on 26 nuggets because they went to 7 against OKC. Now I can't explain OKC being shit in the playoffs as easily, as I don't remember any major injuries aside from Chet? (But chet basically rested the entire season). But people thought the Nuggets basically only lost due to injuries, coaching and depth. So everybody thought the nuggets would make some noise in the 26 season, which ended up a disaster despite Murray's healthiest and best regular season yet.You can cope that the AG injury and Jokic coming off resting nearly entire month injury is why they lost. But the Wolves were equally decimated by injuries, and Randle played like unironic fucking garbage that entire series. The excuses start getting hard to rationalize.All I want is people to reconcile their optimism for the 26 nuggets with their doomerism for the 27 nuggets. Nobody even expected Watson to be a contributing player before the 26 season, so you cant use the Watson cope (also hes shit if you know ball)
>>157484825trvke those white boys said Jokic was gonna win because he got Cam Johnson/Tim Hardaway Jr (search ‘Jokic buff’ in the archive for 26 Nuggets optimism)
>>157484825the 26 nugs were better than the 25 nugs in a vacuum, but the circumstances were worse. They had untimely injuries to both of their defensive anchors and frankly were lacking the execution that they've been known for. They went from clutch gods to one of the worst in the league and their defense was the worst it had been in years which indicates coaching problems. Them losing to the wolves and how they lost was a sobering moment because it shined a bright light to all of their major problems and up to this point they've literally addressed none of them. They're old, expensive, unathletic, don't play defense, and nobody on the roster except Jokic/Murray can create a shot for themselves (maybe Derozan now but he creates bad shots). To date they're straight up worst than last season. Also, Watson was always expected to become a significant player for them and filled some major holes in their roster yet he walked for almost nothing with nobody to fill his roles
But Kobe never had or recruited a super team. Let you people tell it . LeBron is the one who started it and always was in search for it lol. I guess y'all must've forgot . people like dreamingradicaldreams
>>157484825At the end of the day it all comes down to how Jokic and Murray play and for some reason both of them struggle so much against the Wolves. It's like this team has no dawg left in them, they fucking let Jaden McDaniels and Ayo Dosunmu beat them. And their biggest move in the off-season after this embarrassment is getting DeFrozen, you can't make this shit up

Michael Jordan didn’t play against elite athletes. He played against an unathletic, expanded league of 90s role players on a shortened 3-point line.The 6-0 Finals myth completely falls apart when you look at the actual data from that decade.

>>157484825>Now I can't explain OKC being shit in the playoffs as easily, as I don't remember any major injuries aside from Chet? (But chet basically rested the entire season)You don't recover from a broken hip that fast. Chet STILL hasn't looked the same since. Jdub also tore his wrist and him losing his shot because of it was a big reason the Nuggets series even went to 7 in the first place.
>>157485073Well the wolves front court has been neutered so now they can't throw endless bodies at Jokic and they are at the mercy of Ball's mercurial play and health

Why couldn’t the clippies sign MathurynCrazy He was like their best player
>>157489775I'm so glad none of my Minny Wolves important players are signed to this fucking idiot.
>>157489775Rich Paul is so insufferable. He only got an agent job in the first place because he was friends with Lebron when he got drafted.
>>157489775HAHAHAHA TOTAL BAWB DEATH

>American Gladiators" star Debbie "Storm" Clark dead at 61.Which nba player is next?

>>157489775This is just cope because his client is a bum who got nailed to the bench. Rich Paul is done the minute Lebron retires.
>>157488744one of my favourite jerseys ever, i will never understand people that hate the sleev jerseys, just too iconic especially here
>>157489051whats confusing you? there are 2 conferences, in the modern day there are 15 teams per conference. Conferences are broadly defined by east to west, so east teams like new york, celtics, 76ers, and chicago bulls are in the east, and the lakers, rockets, phoenix suns, spurs are west.Rules change from era to era, and I honestly dont remember any specific rules about the 80s and 90s besides zone defense, which basically means, you cant defend the space inbetween players, you have to either commit to a hard double, or defend man to man. Im sure euro football has the concept of man to man if my memory serves right.They also shortened the 3 point line mid 90s, so shitty 3 point shooters got a boost from that.
Mathurin 8M a year, Pacers fucked up all their big decisions, at least they got Oubre
>>157490536Thanks, I have two main questions, how does the draft works, I've heard from watching games that it was changed and why the fuck can a team move cities or conferences.
Enes FREEDOM Kanter suing the WNBA for his price of admission ticket, can the WNBA afford the $50 for the courtside seat?
>>157491105the way the draft works is if there's a very high demand player in it then a specific team wins the totally not rigged lottery and if there's not a good player then one of those shit teams who cries about how it's rigged gets the #1 draft pick, unless it's indiana because fuck them
Why did no one talk about the big moves the Warriors did yesterday?
>>157491245I hope this faggot gets beaten up, Some NBA players should twat the fuck out of him.
>>157491677>i want a bunch of men to beat a woman for speaking her mindwon't this get u arrested over there lil bro

horiffic
>>157491854they make dogshit every year but damn if i dont want to buy it just so i can autistically play franchise mode
>>157491826is that a man or woman in the bottom right
>>157491105Player's who have declared to go pro all get put into a draft rather than be free agents. Teams then draft players one at a time for 2 rounds - each round a team picks 1 player (ancient times had more rounds fyi). Drafted players get a rookie scale contract for a few years to the team that drafted them and have to play for them. Undrafted players become free agents. Historically, the draft order goes in reverse order of how bad the team's record was the prior season - the worst team gets the #1 pick, the 2nd worst gets the #2 pick. This created a huge incentive for a team to be really bad so they can draft the best prospect to their team because in the NBA the best prospects are a lot more predictable than other sports and a single star can have a huge effect on wins and losses since teams only have 5 players in play at a time. So the league has steadily made the draft order more and more random each era to the point where it is literally a weighted lotto system now in the hopes that teams will stop sucking on purpose. There are rumors and conspiracy theories that the lotto is often rigged and it is harder to argue it isn't rigged every year.
>>157489009There are 6 divisions of 5 teams, and 2 conferences of 3 divisions and 15 teams. They are sometimes influenced by culture, proximity and logistics, but not always. NBA teams play Summer League (it's like a junior tournament before the season), Pre-Season (friendlies), Regular Season, Play-In and Playoffs. RS is 82-games long, teams play 4 times against others from the same Division (16 games), 3 times against the other 10 teams in the same Conference (30g), and 2 times against everyone in the other Conference (30g). That's 76 games, the other 6 iirc vary every year, but it's usually a 3rd or 4th game against teams from other divisions, sometimes but not always in neutral venues like in Europe or China, or some neighboring city from an NBA city.After the RS, the top 8 teams qualify to the Playoffs, but before that, we have the Play-In, where the winner of a single game between 10th vs 9th plays against the 8th best team, and the winner steals their spot and plays against the 7th best team to define the seeding for the playoffs. This happens in both Conferences.The Playoffs is split into 2 brackets based on the Conferences. There are 4 rounds of series of 7 games, meaning if you win 4 you win the series and move on to the next stage. The 1st placed team faces the 8th from the same Conference, 2nd vs 7th, 3rd vs 6th, etc. Only one team gets to come out of each Conference and they face each other in the finals for the championship.Recently the NBA added a Cup tournament, but it's completely different from the ones we see in footy. Essentially people didn't really care about the beginning of the Regular Season that much, since 82 games is a fuck ton of time to recover, so they tried to copy cup tournaments by... using league/Regular Season games. So games are worth double, both for the RS and the Cup. Teams are split into 6 groups of 5, best 2 and 2 best 3rd places qualify, and they play a single elimination bracket. Final is on a neutral venue.+

>>157489009>>157492125The Cup is like 4 years old I think, so it's not given enough importance, but imo it has been a success because the energy for these games are higher than normal RS ones, and some a very Playoff-like. The award is like 500k for each player in the winning team, so for role players it's nice.Tranfers in the footy sense don't happen much, you don't just wallet bully others, you have to trade for them with something of similar or equal value, or wait until their contract ends so you can sign them as a free agent. There is a salary cap in the NBA, and things like the 1st and 2nd apron, which are kinda like a soft cap that taxes you based on how much you surpass it, and a hard cap with a fuckton of restrictions. I don't know much about it but that's the idea more or less. Drafting is how you get new players in to the league, usually, although they can also just be signed or go to the G-League, which is the NBA development league. The Drafting order is based on the ranking of the teams based on the last season, but there is a thing called a lottery, where the worst teams don't just get the pick based on their position, but they get higher odds to get them. Essentially, teams were playing bad on purpose, so the NBA had to add some randomness to it. So instead of the last placed team getting the 1st pick, they get the highest odd in the lottery to land it. However... Recently the NBA did some changes to punish teams who were still trying to tank, and it kinda changed all of that. I don't know much about the details, but certain situations, like a team being in the bottom 5 for consecutive years, will remove them from the top 5, and flatten the odds of everyone else in the lottery or something like that. You better off watching a good video about this part.G-League is like a talent showcase league for the NBA, most players aren't really trying to win it, just get the attention of affilliated NBA teams.

Aside from 2011 can anyone name a finals LeBron lost where his teammates were healthy and clearly better than the other team?
>>157492227pretty sure everyone who isnt an attention whore retard thought the same thing
>>157492227AVRA
>>157491963>>157491390Thanks, very useful info
>>157492227Kanter is/was just trying to prove a point and be an attention whore. Multiple things can be true at once. It's ridiculous that all of these "women" discussions are even happening at all and Kanter is a shameless grifter who loves the spotlight like many others

>>157492125Never post here again
>>157489009>>157492206As far as awards go, you have the MVP, which could mean one of these, depending on the narrative going on that year> actual best player in the league> best player in the best team> player that carried the mostThen you have other awards like Defensive Player, Most Improved, Rookie of the Year, Clutch Player, 6th man (best bench player) etc.You also have All-NBA teams and All-Defense teams, they are usually a pretty solid way of judging a player that year if he didn't win any other award or ring, but there are always some players getting snubbed.All-Star is merely a popularity context, it doesn't really mean much. Ah, yeah. The RS usually starts in later Octobers, but people usually only start caring about it in the Christmas games, or after the All Star weekend, which is usually in early or mid February. NBA Cup final iirc happens a bit after the ASG. Play-in and Playoffs usually start in mid April.

If a player really wants to leave a team they can work on a buyout too.>when you look at the list of the teams that have a ring, it looks heavily weighted to LA and Boston, it looks like those teams are the "big money" teamsWell, the NBA didn't always have 30 teams, and most of these rules were added much later. So in the 50s~70s, Celtics and Lakers dominated everyone. So that's why they have a lot of old rings. But they did win again eventually. They are also considered strong markets, so players do favor them sometimes.

>>157495862pippen is like prime 2004 ron artest if ron artest could play the point
>>157495862Kawhi led a team to a title. Poppen couldn't do that with a loaded blazers team that was winning by double digits on a possible series clinching game

>>157495879pippen was a role player at that point kek thats like saying richard jefferson couldnt lead the 2003 nets to a title
>>157495891He said it himself. He wanted to prove to people that he wasn't just another side kick
>>157495895players are always going to be hard on themselves. I think he was the 4th scorer on that team after sheed, steve smith, and damon stoudamire. No 4th option is the man on the team, unless youre like ben wallace or bill russell

>>157496225I feel bad for Yaxel. Warriors haven't developed a front court player since Drayboon became a starter and used his machiavellian machinations to ensure no one could ever take his spot.
>>157495938I will be very impressed if they can win over 50 games.
>LeBron signed a minimum
>>157495843He might have been the second best wing in the league, behind Jordan
>Ron Harper's kids are actually great NBA players>Jordan and Pippen's kids washed out
>>157495938Mamu should come off bench
>>157492627>wake up >We got Kuminga.I'm actually surprised he chose us over the Lakers since the Lakers could have offered him better more but I guess the duo of Ant and LaMelo is just much more swaggy than Luka and Reaves.This is a DANGEROUS team, we're better than the Spurs and on level with OKC, It's over for the NBA.
>>157496487Scotty Pippen Jr is legit, he was just injured all last year.
Heat getting Klay was such a good idea. Even if he is washed every defender will respect his shot. If I was Spo I would have him as a starter and play around 30 minutes and always with Bam and GiannisAlso Drayboon is a fucking loser
>>157496647Pretty sure that is the plan. Have him stand in a corner to make sure defenders don't double or triple team Giannis

How are we feeling about the Wolves? I'm impressed they found a few compelling moves. I had no idea what they could do to get better at the end of this last season. I always felt like that KAT trade was lop-sided and they lost that trade.

>>157502935>good
>>157502935He couldn't even start for the Hawks. He doesn't rebound, defend, or shoot the meme. He has small hands. He's not a good decision maker.
>>157488638Kobe? Do you watch basketball with a seeing-eye dog? Kobe doesn't belong in the GOAT conversation. Look at his numbers. He's a career 44.7% shooter and a 32.9% three-point shooter. That sucks! Kobe played 40% of his career with Shaq! Shaq was the Finals MVP in all three Finals. Kobe is a 41% shooter in the Finals. LeBron is a 50.7% shooter! That's much better than Kobe! Kobe never shot fifty percent in a season. LeBron has shot fifty percent fifteen times! He's a better at 3s too.
>>157503412Oh god the Turks found basketball
LeBron > Jordan.• More points.• More assists.• More rebounds.• More All-NBA selections.• More All-Star selections.• More seasons as an elite player.• 40,000+ career points.• Dominated three different decades.• Won Finals MVP with three franchises.• Beat a 73-9 team after trailing 3-1.• Longevity no one has matched.

>>157504953Just saying, there isn't an NBA player in history who was winning anything with the decisions that Cavs front office made. I don't care who you put in there, make it Wilt Chamberlain with a 3 ball or 6'6" Chris Paul, those teams were ordained by God herself to not win.
>>157501904I honestly wish he would. He needs to somewhere where he's not wasting the rest of his prime waiting for Murray and Gordon to recover from their terminal pussy-itisWould Denver fans really even be upset at Jokic if he left? He brought them their only title and carried the team for years while his shitter teammates kept flaking out. If he finally decided to just move along that seems fair enough at this point
>>157505059when was the conversation about who could hypothetically win with the cavslebron formed the heatles, then he got kyrie (#1 pick) and klove (bought for a #1 pick), then he went to la where he used their assets on ad (and westbrick), and now he's in philly on a min with 50 all starsyou are smoking pcp if you think lebron was shortchanged on competitive years and chances at chips, all out of his control. imagine how seriously you would take an mj fan who complained about his time in dc+retirement and said he never got a chance to shine. lebron spent 15 years pressuring front offices to mortgage their futures for his time there, then leaving town when the good times ended
We got Kelly Olynyk and the Scrubb brothers playing vs Panama

>>157505690him being insane means he's probably not lyingall the sane people say "i've got dirt on these people that i'm gonna reveal in two weeks" because they think they have a chance of revealing the info and living if they do that, then mysteriously die
>>157510931Him coaching a godawful team to the playoffs in Orlando carried him to Boston, and his title in Boston will carry him to Valhalla.

>>157512953I'm a jordanbro but there's no way to make this comparison. jordan entered the league at 21, lebron 18, but lebron at age 21 had 3 years of nba reps so that's not 1:1 either
>>157508972That nigga gonna drink your seed and steal your heart
>>157512953>casually mogs most of these hall of famers rookie seasons while jumping over cars
The only argument against Wilt being the goat is he didn't form an unbeatable superteam (that he still beat)
>>157513587>ends up behind Harden, Steph and Defrozen
>>157512990AI24-4-8

Biggest KWAB of the offszn?
>>157517297The fans. Always the fans.
>Jalen Green and cash trade from Minnesota to Utah for Cody Williams and John Konchar
>>157517428Finally got rid of Green's shitty contract for a dude who would barely play.Konchar is getting waived but we're keeping Cody.Some people said he's aight and some said he's the worst player they've ever seen.

>>157517428>Jalen GreenJosh green
>>157512953>Flagg>LukaThey get like 3 extra baskets just off of all the spacing, so -5 points, and at least -3 assists are 2K assists (the scorer does 90% of the job). So, their real, adjusted, accurate, actual stats are:>Flagg 17p 7r 1a>Luka 17p 8r 3aWilt's stats are also heavily inflated due to usage and center centric offense.
>>157515521Well he is one of the greatest 3pt shooters ever
>>157480424so uhh my son was born today. august 29th at 2:18 AM. ill try to raise him to be a basketball player
>>157517074lebum in his defensive stance
thinking of getting into the nfl this szn
>>157522299So you will raise him to be 6'9?
>>157523031im 6'4, his mom is 5'6. so expect him to be around 6'2 - 6'4. good height for a guard
>>157523088>his mom is 5'6thats your first mistake. you should have married a girl whos over 6 feet tall. wasting your genes on a manleta
We found the new G.O.A.T
>>157517240hornets could unironically use either of them. their point guard options are trash.
>>157523694dude im not into eugenics. marry who you love
>>157523816How many of those 8 titles was he the undisputed #1 offense and defensive player on the court?
>>157523088>his mom is 5'6you did your son a terrible disservice
>>157523816In the playoffs MJ averaged 33 points per game and Havlicek averaged 22 points per game
>>157523088THE TRUE HYBRID™ FROM /nba/hopefully you have a better outcome than that other nigga that got a white girl pregnant but she has like 6 former names and went by they/them
>>1575243470, same as Jordan
Knicks feel like the Nuggets more than the Thunder. a team whose window closes as fast as it opens.
>>157526851Knicks are more likely to build a dynasty than any other team because their players don't get injured every other week
>>157526851the nugs self sabotaged but the knicks just straight up aren't that good. They hit a groove at the right moment and got a lucky matchup that they still should have lost
Healthy OKC are sweeping the Knicks and the Spurslets keep it 1hunna
>>157526007dude that was so long ago. kid probably started kindergarten lol
>>157526851>Cody Williams3rd worst VORP in the league last season I'm afraid. Neck and neck with the likes of Bub Carrington and Nolan Traore and Nique Clifford
>Its not about whether you win or lose. Sometimes its about how many pages you add to the rulebookReminder, the league changed the rules to slow down Jordan, they changed them to help Lebitch
>>157528596Illegal defense only helped MJ and the league got rid of it when MJ left. The real god of rule changes designed to limit his power is Harden.
