**NBA FINALS THREAD - RAPTORS DEFY GRAVITY**

[Based Jesus]

He played that **** up too I remember the line he dropped in a throwaway that said something like "I'm the proud new owner of the Nets". Called himself "the black Branch Rickey" in another song. Rappers' ability to sell ideas to the public is incredible. *****s would legit ARGUE you down when you tried to explain that he owned less than 1% of the team.

"you *****s hatin on jigga man. how many teams you own"

Tryna tell people he literally doesn't have enough money to be a majority owner while they're showing some photo of him on a rooftop looking out like he built the **** brick by brick

My guy addict4sneakers grades on a curve


Defense doesn’t matter for guards
Turnovers are the same as missed shots
30% 3 pt shooting isokay for Joel Inbed
Giannis is better than AD

They just keep comin

 

[addict4sneakers]

I know a team that started 3 guys shooting around 30% from 3 but they were supposed to be a WCF team

Are they in the playoffs? If not, wrong thread.

Name another player in the league shooting an acceptable 30% from deep. I'll be waiting..

As long as he’s taking 3 attempts a game, it’s ok. Make a 3, defense forgets your a 30% shooter from there and they bite on the pump fake. Rinse and repeat

All you need is your all world center to be a threat

You stay ducking the question

 

[addict4sneakers]

Giannis

 

[champcruthik]

Don’t know anyone by that name

OK, you’re welcome for athletic Theo Rossi.

 

[addict4sneakers]

You stay ducking the question

Jokic

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Giannis

Not really the popular sentiment on here tho

Jokic

Certainly not

Certainly not

Jokic shot 30% from 3 this season and it got his team HC. For whatever reason, MLGA hates the Nuggets though.

If you’re an all NBA big with a toolbox of skills, it’s ok to shoot 30% from 3. We just need you to keep the defense honest, not be Steph curry

Denver is the youngest team in the league right? This season has been wildly successful even if they lose the series

I love how ya'll _'s move the goal post constantly

 

[addict4sneakers]

How is it moving goal posts? In what fantasy world were the Nuggets contenders or e en predicted to finish 2nd in the west?

Y’all boys living fantasies and I reject your deposits

They supposed to have this great group of young players led by Dirk Gasol but they can't get out the 1st rd?

Finishing 2nd in the west and going home in the 1st rd is "wildly successful"?

 

[B Sox]

At some point #YALL are going to learn that regular season and post season are a bit different.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

And that y’all basically think the west is trash outside of Houston and gsw

Houston and gsw are just that much better. The rest of the bunch are pretty even

The youngest team in the NBA wins 50 games in the west while gaining playoff experience is a successful season. When’s the last young team to strike gold the first time in the playoffs?

Still rejecting your deposits

Watching the Nets game last night, something that always bothered me all year continues to rear its head.

That’s Kenny Atkinson’s minutes distribution.

76ers clearly have the more talented players.

Simmons & Butler 38 minutes. Tobias 36 minutes.

Kenny out here playing DLo 30. 28 for Dinwiddie. 26 for LeVert.

You’re outmatched. Why the hell are you managing minutes?

Like I said moving the goal post. Now that they might get embarrassed in the 1st rd it's

"oh they're so young, they shocked the world to be here!!".


But before it was


"Real young core Magic Dirk Gasol "


I got it.

It’s a similar situation to the clippers. Best players aren’t starters

It is purely unacceptable for Lavert to play so little even more so that he’s been putting up numbers

Jokic going out in the first and nobody bites on embiid's fakes in the playoffs

'Acceptable'

 

[blakep267]

Ben would fit much better with a floor spacing 5 like Porzingis (or even Brook Lopez) than Embiid.

Been Saying that. The future of this team is more shooters and another big.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

First time in a long time that the top 4 in the East (Bucks, Raptors, Sixers, Celtics) imho are better collectively than the top 4 in the West (Warriors, Nuggets, Blazers, Rockets). But barely.
