Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[P C H]

The actual team (Jazz) is kind of irrelevant to his example.

What he's saying is, if a team all of a sudden wins a ring a year after being bounced in the first round, and that team spawns a league MVP, multiple all stars, etc. and those players didn't have those accolades before said ring, would you consider that team stacked

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Maximus Meridius you gotta be on some high grade grass right now man

Or you simply are refusing to read and comprehend. It's pretty clear what dude said/was saying.

I'm on the same stuff you was when you told us Steph was better than Lebron.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

I got you. Before that season that wasn't looked as a stacked team. Your example is just off cuz right now the Jazz have nothing the Warriors had DURING the 2015 season. The Warriors were looked at as a great team DURING that 2015 season. The Jazz are not.


You acting like the Warrios was some 5th seed that nobody saw coming and won a ring.

Uhh....yes that is EXACTLY what I'm acting like because that was the case 

. As a matter of fact they were a 6th seed the year before. They didn't make any crazy pickups in the offseason either. The core was exactly the same, only with David Lee and Draymond swapping roles.

I dare you to find me a single post on here or anywhere else on the globe that had the Warriors pegged as a legit contender going into the year.

As a matter of fact...when is the last time an NBA team even made the finals that wasn't considered a contender going into that year? Maybe the 07 Cavs and that's about as close as I can think of. 

 

[MVP]

That's irrelevant to me.

Tim Duncan was the best player on the 2014 Spurs. Kawhi got Finals MVP.

Team game man.

Also, Kobe wasn't the best player in the 2010 Finals. Pau was. But that doesn't matter . The voters gave Kobe the award.

Not today Satan!

forreal bruh

 

[freeze]

you definitelty don't wanna go there b

Pppssshhhh in what way is Draymond Green better than Blake besides being a better defender? He does nothing else better.

Like it's lowkey not even close.

Muuuuuuuuuuch better playmaker. Damn near a point guard. Blake still wonky as hell when he dribbles. Doesn't crack or disappear under pressure. Way tougher mentally. Heart and soul of his team.

And hes not just a much better defender, he's a transcendent defender.

 

[geno90221]

Blake fell off.....

He should go to OKC 

 

[MVP]

no he isn't.

Russ team isn't as bad as people try to portray it. Far from Kobe with Smush Kwame and Luke in the starting lineup bad. Kd had the same team cooking and won mvp with a much higher seed, then Russ does having to put up historical usage and triple doubles every night. Trade Russ and Curry. Gs is worse and okc is better.

Don't think this is true at all if you're talking about this year's squads. Gravity means zilch when you got Roberson and Sabonis to kick out to.

Russ with KD is already proven to be great, you add Klay and Draymond? LOL.

26/6/5 in the finals......and your team wins the championship.






Averages 28/6/5 for 21 games in the entire playoffs.

But because some voters decided Iggy deserved Finals MVP because he defended LeBron well (and scored on him)....


"Steph didn't show up"

my dude! Spitting out facts.

Sorry but triple doubles ain't on Curry level. Curry been the point guard king 3 years and counting.

 

[Proposition Joe]

Not today Satan!

You should've bolded the Spurs part too

Yeahhhh nope. I'm not with this "heart and soul" BS that you can't quantify or measure and it's easy to not crack under pressure when you're not the guy for your team

He isn't a better playmaker either. Blake at over 21 a game and still making plays for others at an elite rate for a Big.

You all over the place. I'm sticking with the end of the 2015 season since you wanted to use the Jazz. Don't run from your own example. You can't use the Jazz right now then flip it and say "Well BEFORE 2015 nobody believed in the Warriors".

 

[Proposition Joe]

NT = curry circle jerk

 

[VARNELL HILL]

I'm all over place. But several other people seem to notice you not making ANY sense whatsoever right now. 

Keep fighting that good fight tho.

 

[VARNELL HILL]

NT = curry circle jerk

Guess it'd be better to be in a Lebron or Jay Z circle jerk huh?

 

[Proposition Joe]

Y'all dudes bring up Jay way more than I do,it's quite funny actually

you can't quantify or measure gravity either...but Isreal.

Blake not even the guy on his team. CP3 is. and you're making excuses why it's reasonable blake cracking? Then that means he shouldn't be the guy. Dray is a much better playmaker. It's not even close.

 

[wavycrocket]

Maximus Meridius learning from the Ninjahood deflect, never concede, be illogical, refuse to read, and move goal post playbook.

Bravo man. Bravo

Did iggy deserve it?

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Maybe I'm missing something but most of Draymond's assists are him standing around the perimeter waiting for the team to get into their set and someone to get open. He doesn't even drive and kick that much from what I see. He's kind of a system playmaker

True, I feel the only time he drives and kicks is if it's fastbreak and he has a trailer.

You can't quantify gravity but you can depict it, and it's been depicted a few times in this thread

There's no way to depict heart and soul lol

And I'm not making excuses for Blake cracking under pressure but to say draymond doesn't, when he doesn't have nearly the amount of responsibility as Blake does in the clutch is foolish

And finally you're off the mark with pronouncing draymond as a much better playmaker. He's at over 5ast a game with almost 22 a game. That's not a "much better playmaker" if at all.

Blake's the better shooter, (much better) scorer, playmaker, much higher PER, I mean...

 

[P C H]

Bro how can draymond be a "much" better playmaker when he's barely a threat to score this year

 

[geno90221]

Better than Steph

I disagree completely here.

You are REALLY trivializing his passing ability here.
