2016 Official NBA Off-Season Thread: Former Greatness

[shotsrangout]

 

This discussion reminds me how much I hate how my family talk about how much money I make.

My parents and siblings will always know what I make, down to the cent. As far as I'm concerned its their money too.

Aren't you the same dude who said you would never tell your wife how much money you make?

crazy how dirk has outlasted kg , kobe , duncan , i know hes a couple of years younger then kg and duncan but that fadeaway has kept him around and  effective even in old age.  . 

 

[IATT]

Duncan can still play and be highly effective

 

[antidope]

Tim Duncan was still playing effective basketball

 

[aepps20]

Watching Duncan miss easy layups against OKC was hard to watch.

 

[pmatic]

Effective basketball can still be played by Tim Duncan.

 

[a-friend]

What he was playing, wasn't it though.

He checked out sometime last year.

 

[noblekane]

Tim Duncan was still playing effective basketball

until the playoffs came around

the guy is 40 years old

i think he knows his body more than we do

 

[kdslittlebro]

If I had to put my hopes in Aldridge in the paint down the stretch, I would want Timmy back, too.

 

[kdslittlebro]

When you watch the Kyrie comp, then the Steph one, Steph really isn't touching Kyrie off the dribble.

Kyrie on his own stratosphere with the handles

Kyrie is the best ball handler of all time. I've already seen enough. Allen Iverson, God Shamgod, Tim Hardaway, Jamal Crawford. They can't see the kid.

i know there is more to the nba season then one playoff series and im a huge duncan fan but watching him against okc was hard. i know steven adams is a beast and will give most centers trouble with that brute strength so maybe that just made him look worse then he is but he did nothing in that series besides the last game. he looked like he didnt belong in the nba anymore during that series., duncan was my favorite . never was a huge kg fan , when the argument was td vs kg i was always picking td forever . i didnt think the spurs were boring and that finals vs the pistons was one of my favorite finals ever even though the casual fans hated it. always been a bigger fan of the more naturally skilled players then the super athletic players. td ,steph , chris paul , dirk over the westbrook, amare stoudamire , blake griffin type players.
never was a fan of and1.


dirk led the mavs in scoring with 18 per game and also led them in playoff scoring. i know duncans role changed and he became the rim protector/defender , but dirk led his team to the postseason while duncan was like a 5th or 6th option on his squad. going to be sad when dirk is no longer effective . i hope he defies the odds and is still scoring and effective for a few more years.

Kyrie's footwork has always been kinda awkward to me. Not taking anything away from it, just visually it's like he doesn't get full extension or moves too quick or something. Effective as anybody tho

 

[IATT]

^ Spurs had the series until okc went with that Adams/kanter lineup

 

[Quincy McCall]

Free agent guard Ty Lawson has agreed on a one-year deal with Sacramento, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Who won't the Kings sign? I might as well send them a mixtape

 

[casper90403]

good thing Timmy doesn't want to just be "effective."

This should never be something the greats stick around to do. Tony Allen? Sure. But not the greats
