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

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I remember trying to tell clipper fans that Morris was a bad idea. Knicks got Quickley with the pick from that trade

I thought the Clippers weren't closing out with Russ.

Mann getting thrown out might have cost them that game.

That was a terrible ejection. We came to watch the players make impacts on the games not the refs.

 

[ill steelo]

that was unbelievable from Kawhi

Another MVP article. For me a lot of the pushback on Jokic comes down to this intangible, unquantifiable idea that "Jokic is going to achieve something that Michael Jordan, LeBron, Magic Johnson, Shaq, Kobe didn't achieve yet no one *actually* believes Jokic is the best player in the league". There are a lot of people who don't want him to win for this reason alone.

Embiid is having a better season though.

I been saying the Grizzlies as a whole a bunch of chumps. I like Bane and Adams tho...otherwise, I'll stand in solidarity with my Dubs brothers. We weren't the only ones, but let em pin it on us....chumps!

Good stuff, should give FVV some of his money back too while they're at it

 

[don ramon]

They need to do something about these refs man

nba refs are the worst. this has nothing to do with basketball and all about the tremendous egos of these characters. no one's paying any money to know the names of any refs in the league so why are they forcing their will on the game itself? been saying this **** needs a full makeover, but the league is too soft to do it

Good morning family

This is it, this is all I have to post.

 

[ballinsam23]

Good to see a ref get some punishment.

Even more thankful for the Clipset

I believe the maximum fvv could have been fined was 50k so it was a little telling he “only” got a 30k fine

Haven’t seen the PG13 injury.

And never will if I can help it.

Wishing dude a speedy recovery tho

 

[lawdog1]

I’m expecting it to be something bad. Like out for the rest of the season, including playoffs, bad.

 

[getback]

Yeah that looked too severe too be just a regular hyper extended knee unfortunately. Hope I'm wrong.

 

[Based Jesus]

Clippers have absolutely terrible injury luck

 

[ill steelo]

Hopefully this guy isn’t anywhere near the playoffs.

Blowing the reach is bad enough, then you get mad that the player is mad that YOU blew the call

Emotions only run higher in the playoffs

 

[don ramon]

means nothing. people like this need to be reffing in the philippines

 

[lovehateself]

I understand not wanting OKC to get the ball last, but you're down. There's no need to wait until the last second to fire up a game winner.

Clippers have absolutely terrible injury luck

is it the clippers bad luck or injury prone players ?

 

[noblekane]

they need to demote the guy who was standing there and looking at lebron being fouled that cost them the game vs the celtics. old man didnt even admit he was wrong.

 

[Based Jesus]

is it the clippers bad luck or injury prone players ?

Yes

 

[lawdog1]

is it the clippers bad luck or injury prone players ?

Both.

And just goes to show that you can load manage and minute restrict guys, but it doesn't control for plain old bad luck. So, just let guys play when they're healthy.
