I wonder if Giannis is regretting not going to work out with LeBron

 

[Hank Scorpio]

But the casual fan and nba media constantly hates and ****s on the game. The state of the big man. The fact that big men “shoot 3s” etc.

When in reality, this is the most diverse and talented set of bigs since the 90s.

ESPN….ran an ENTIRE series about the “decline of the big man” in 2020. And had the nerve to have Roy Hibbert chime in on it

When are we going to admit the Big Men are back because the Warriors are not involved in the playoffs or contending?

 

[VARNELL HILL]

I forgot the freaks come out during playoff time in here

This captures most of the general sentiments for him. Personally, I think the game is better WITHOUT big men. I'd be OK if we got rid of big guys in the NBA.

Of course, this doesn't apply to agile big men. They should phase out big guys, and allow more perimeter physicality in today's game. Guy's like Trae Young will eat in the next few years.

I couldn’t disagree more, I think big men are basketball and I hate how refs have tried to take them out of the game. But I think your perspective is probably representative of many fans. Lots of trash small players like Nate Robinson are beloved because even though they can’t play they’re “pound for pound” good (this ain’t boxing). But great bigs get hated on for not being able to move heaven and earth because of fan resentment/envy.
“He’s so big he should be averaging 18 rebounds a game!” And that type of nonsense.

[yobyellav]

Bam is the secondary (sometimes primary) playmaker on his team and he shoots and makes jumpshots

I never not chuckle at these. I used to hoop all the time, but yeah I work in quality improvement in health care most of the time.

Nate was trash at boxing as well

One day we're going to talk about noblekane and his CONSTANT homoerotic "jokes" about NBA Players. He one of the ****** on here that became fake woke after 2016 too...so I always find irony when he get into that mode...but be calling ****** **** like "Russell Bootyhole" or talking about two players having sex or some ****. If he was a white dude...I wonder if ya'll would let him get away with that.

I got a lot going on but i commented on how he types. But not today. Peace and blessings

We need this game to start.

can someone explain to me this debate?

There's someone who just started posting in here once the playoffs started and pretty much everything I have seen has been nonsense.

The difference between Capela and Gobert is?
Good defender that can be exploited. Nerds doing statistic gymnastics to call him the best defender ever


Then you got guys like @wavycrocket saying he’s the best player on the jazz.

All around poor.

Embiid is avg a good 39.5 on a torn meniscus against Capela. Exploited is an easy term to use

He’d do that to anyone as long as he doesn’t have bubble guts.

 

[lawdog1]

I’m going Nets tonight. Gianny will be fine, but I don’t think the other Bucks step up enough to compete with the Nets. Only chance is if Brooklyn has an absolutely awful shooting night.

 

[pmatic]

He’d do that to anyone as long as he doesn’t have bubble guts.

And his girl leaves him alone the night before.

 

[ballinsam23]

No one expected Blake to shut down Giannis. Garbage defensive team all of a sudden playing defense.

It might be a wrap for the Bucks.

Related to this point - besides being a racist, sexist douche, @beach em was just plain weird

@ him

 

[dman14]

think bucks take this in a close one. the stars will get theirs, but i think the role guys play better for the bucks at home

 

[getback]

these are hilarious. It’s a highlight reel of passes. You can likely find one on any starter in the league.

Just youtube'd "Nerlens Noel pass" "Nerlens Noel passing" and there was no highlight reel. Same with Gobert.

 

[Figured it out]

quavo from migos had a song years ago where he said something like “you ain’t getting no playing time like Kendrick Perkins”

new migos song came out , Kendrick called quavo trash.

kendrick saying he wasn’t playing at that time because of injury , quavo is saying it doesn’t matter the reason . He wasn’t playing so he made a line / joke in a song and kendrick shouldn’t be mad

summary - migos album drops tonight and this is all promo for that

 

[atlsfinest]

We’ve seen golden state and Houston run Gobert off the floor.

And then we saw Murray have a historic series on him.

he ain’t Draymond. He ain’t AD. He ain’t Giannis. He ain’t Bam. And he ain’t my DPOY

You can spin it however you want but the numbers speak for themselves. He's easily the most impactful defensive player this season
