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

[getback]

Kyrie so talented that with all his flaws he's still easily a HOF'er. Had a chance to be so much more. Sad.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Whatever more details emerge from this gonna be weirder and grosser

 

[lynchpin33]

Those poor ticket buying fans.

Wonder if Pop told Kerr the science says rest your players again?

Kyrie definitely a HOF calibur player.

But he is definitely not getting in due to all the *******.

 

[DLF]

I think Bomani asked the question.

Are we sure Bron still even wants Kyrie?

After have to scrap and put out a statement on the Shop episode with Kanye, Kyrie is getting that same type of bad rap. We know Bron cares about his brand above all.

On on the basketball side of thing, Kyrie really has been playing basketball part-time at the same rate as AD for the past 2 years.

Tsai saved the lakers

 

[WASHED KING]

Tsai saved the lakers

And the Warriors.

 

[lawdog1]

******* weirdos.

 

[Coupé It]

Didn't think it would happen this early but the Warriors are making the right move. You don't find a talent like Wembanyama every year

Don’t even joke about this.

You want the Warriors to be a juggernaut for the next 20 years?

2032 draft lookin tough

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Mitch Richmond played on mid teams his entire career. We can’t discount Kyrie’s team success in a team sport because he played with the greatest player of an era.

Thinking about it more a better counter arguement is Pete Maravich.

Pete Maravich very talented.
Didn't really contribute to winning.
Teams didn't play worse without him.
And was injured all the time.


So if Kyrie is a rich man's Pete Maravich, and Pete is in, I guess Kyrie has to get into the hall.

It just feels silly that you can kill your team half the time, and not play the other half

And get in the hall.

Lowry being called Thiccgod is unsettling

2032 draft lookin tough

Always impresses me that kids play on the same courts adults do for the most part. I know they got energy for days but them little legs do alot of running and shooting.

 

[akajae]

antidope were you feeling the sample on Circo Loco?

 

[DripNick]

Lowry being called Thiccgod is unsettling

This guy sick


Soon cancer free tho

 

[a-friend]

I don't think his body will allow more minutes than he's been playing season to season

Is it still with the HIP from his ROOKIE year?
Thought that was a thing of the past and GSW just preferred "small ball"
His value spoke for itself last July, so even if he wanted more minutes his body couldn't handle it is why?

Other than the hip surgeries, he was diagnosed with neuropathy a few years ago. I think his body is pretty f'd up

Kyrie will make the HOF at some point.

With that being said, T-Mac averaged 32/7/6 on 46/39/79 in a dirt-slow era, won back to back scoring titles, but his team was a disaster when he sat (-9.8/100 poss.) Didn't have the luxury of playing alongside LeBron.

Peak T-Mac >>> peak Kyrie

I’m listening to this.

Man…the agenda. In this case, let’s separate the player from the man. Some of the things Lowe is saying is downright harsh (and it sounds like he’s doubling down according to Vince on TV).

 

[Kierris]

It's wild the weight we give to a dude who's only redeemable talent is putting a ball in a hoop. Kyrie is no different than you or I. The **** does he need to meet with Jewish leaders for? What does that solve? Jesus I'm over this ****. Either fine dude, suspend him, or don't. **** outta here with this make believe kumbyah ****. The dude who gave no ****s about COVID is now gonna listen to a rabbi?

It's so strange how anytime instances like these occur people are quick to rush out and loudly proclaim how antisemitic less than 15% of the population in America is. How does such a small group of people with next to no economic, political, or social power have the ability to subjugate and discriminate an entire group of people? How does that math work? What the **** is going on man?

 

[Based Jesus]

Kyrie should get royalties

 

[waukeganwill]

kyrie HOF status being questioned is pure madness man

Again, Mo Cheeks is in the Hall of Fame....just let that sink in.

The basketball hall of fame is very lenient...
