⭐ OFFICIAL 2020-2021 NBA Off-Season Thread: Olympics begin 7/23; NBA Draft 7/29⭐

Chris Webber making run-on sentences instead of just saying a player's name will never not be annoying.

It's a business, but name a team that betrayed a player more than Clippers did Blake Griffin.

This will never sit right with me. They didn’t have to do LO like that

Was Blake Griffin ever on the verge of death in a Nevada ***** house after he got traded? I can’t remember.

Oubre looks like he could be Lavar’s long lost son

 

[Cashflow]

LeLuka James always complaining to the refs

 

[atlsfinest]

I give Steph a lot of credit. I was clowning him early in a season for his poor play (cats in the thread were saying he was washed and passed his prime) but he's really stepped it up and he's carrying his team. If they had Klay Thompson I could see the Warriors being a legit contender, probably the third team after the Lakers and Clippers.

The worst part is that they have this reductive, anti-analytics view on top of not actually watching an understanding the modern game.

I remember a couple years back Charles Barkley said that Houston can't be considered a good defensive team because they give up 110 pts per game. He doesn't bother to understand the difference in pace of play pace of play over the years and why offensive and defensive efficiency might be better metrics than just points per game.
