He’s drunk before sundown on a Monday. Nice!

I don't mind his personality/persona as much as other players (like Kat for instance). He really is who he is portraying to be, no make believe or anything, I just don't like his skill-set and I find his ceiling to be quite low for such a tall player (no pun intended). It really grinds my gears how his "soft" persona actually helps him and qualify him for stuff he's not worthy of imo. I'm ready for the next generation of more evolved, complex and less stereotypical western European players and that's why I can't "forgive" him for
1.robbing Wemby, a way more deserving defender/player
2.not stepping his game up and actually be more deserving of his accolades

Regarding your bets and paper, I'm sure you'll be aight and it's at least less money going towards y'all ugly *** glazed Chelseas

Havent worn Chelsea’s since before the pandemic . Every man needs a pair, for ****s and giggles. That or some classic slippery earls. It can definitely go wrong, but feet is feet!

Now to your Rudy G hate…

1. Wemby was not robbed or “way more deserving” than Gobert. 2 great defenders were up for an award. It was given to the currently better defender over the course of the 82 game season. That’s the truth. Wemby is a monster, and none of this will matter.

2. Rudy Gobert is a late 1st round pick by the Utah Jazz. Completely a raw player and project. He’s been an ALL NBA GUY, ALL STAR, and 4X DPOY. Constantly contributing for winning teams. And available. Reliable. He’s improved a whole lot. At his best, he’s a 16/14 guy, with 2 blocks that will shoot 65% from the field. 65% from the FT LINE. And is truly one of the best SCREENERS in basketball, opening up everything for his team.

Every single nba player has weaknesses. Yall were claiming you want defenders…and are mad because a 7’1, raw, French guy is not playing like Paul George.

It makes zero sense . Rudy really a throwback NBA big. I like that he’s versatile in ways unlike the others. Appreciate greatness

AAU critiques have largely missed the mark anyways. It’s really about the US’ professionalization of youth sports and hypercapitalism that has ruined it, like most other things.

Gordon Hayward has so little self awareness. Oldest player on the team and the only one who was negative in the presser and said his role wasnt what he thought it would be but it is what is is and he was unhappy. Dingbat played 48 minutes total and scored the same amount of points in the playoffs as me

That move didn’t make any sense unless Gordon is a “good vet” behind the scenes, but yo never struck me as that type

He been checked out and washed for a couple years now

Damn, that looks tempting. No longer a cheap ticket here in Indianapolis. WNBA Jesus got Fever games sold out for blowouts. Watched some of the Chicago Sky game over the weekend and they're still struggling to fill up the lower bowl in a 10k seat arena.

That brunch wouldn’t be my crowd but it’s good to see successful promotions for the Mystics, at least Leonsis is trying a lil bit this year

These are horrific.

@WASHED KING RustyShackleford

I was looking up the tickets for Mystics & Chicago Sky game the other day, insanity.

But this is going to be a move. This summer going to be a hell of a time

Yo living the life tbh, that’s another level of well off and care free

I think the only approach is kind of what Denver tried to do, keep your core intact and draft players to replace the role players you can no longer afford.

Denver let Bruce Brown go a year early (obviously he outplayed his contract) I think they will be right back in the mix next year. Braun and Watson are the goods.

Braun yes, Watson no. Bro fell off the rotation in this series.

They’re probably going to lose KCP this offseason. I’m not sure if Braun and Watson are good enough for what they need them to be right now. Not getting more out of them was a big reason why they aren’t repeating.

 

[rolaholic]

Likely a reaction to this take earlier

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Well, Ant is only averaging one less turnover a game than Tatum did that postseason. Ant just needs to make it to the finals like him and he’ll be right there with him

The difference between 3.2 and 4.2 turnovers is a lot, especially in the playoffs when possessions matter.

 

[frshstunna]

Nuggets need somebody else that can create offense and just take a whole series seriously again…they can’t play around with everybody like they do the Lakers but hopefully this L showed em that

AAU critiques has a lot of racism in it too.
It’s really blatant.
