The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

The Rudy Gobert hate is so hilarious. From lively to Shaq, that **** is jokes.

It’s def swung too far the other way but that’s what happens when the media and the nerds hype up and reward Gobert with accolades like he’s a top 75 player all time. If he didn’t have those awards the hate would be 100x less harsh.

Let's see if he can keep up that cut over there. NY blessed him.

Might get me in trouble but I feel like his modern comp would be Brunson

Stylistically very similar but Brunson is a few levels above offensively as a scorer though

Yea, you just used the light skinned, left handed police sketch because I would say they played nothing alike. No disrespect.



Yes disrespect here though.

True story!

True story!

Everyone who stepped on a NBA court is a legend. Agreed.

And I respect Theo Pinson, but when these dudes who are literally only like a year or two removed from playing and talk like vets it just comes off as cringey. Theo could still be playing right now. I respect the hustle though.

He has a quality podcast as well. Love how much time he talks about folks HS years.

Damn at least say Sprewell or somebody like that lol

 

[DCAllAfrican]

It2 said he modeled his game after Mighty Mouse, and learned from him. I see it

That was a great listen.

Please let us know if you were inspired by his journey BIG LEEMELONE

Yall need to leave dangly earrings, black turtlenecks and chelsea boots out of things. They never harmed nobody.

Hard for me to believe a guard really deserved DPOY twice, but taking a glance at some of the team results. he was on some really good defenses,

Alton Lister was a good rim protector but didn't play that many minutes.

he might be the rare gaurd that deserved DPOY.

Shaq be extra hating on other centers.

That 2nd bit was all directed to Ben though, dont think Rudy was part of that quip.

Gary Psyton probably could have had two (he got it in 1996). He was a menace, and could even take small 4s at times. He was 6'4" with long arms. He just made life miserable for everyone he guarded.

Derick McKey??? Really??? That dude was a punch line half his career. His only notable moment was stealing an in bounds pass from the Suns and laying it up and the Sonics beat them.
