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

[Coupé It]

Precious Achiuwa really be out there like a Rich Man’s Thanasis.

He’s actually been playing well lately in his role. He turned it around.

But he cannot be out there spotting up for 3s.

Defensive masterclass by AD tonight.

Had the Knicks in hell all game.

How he hasn't won a DPOY award is mind "bottling"

He might this year.

This is why I exit out of every ad conversation now a days. Folks don’t know what they’re watching.

You really going to hang your **** out because he dominated Isiah Hartenstein, Jericho Sims and a bunch of guys under 6’5”?

 

[pmatic]

Who is winning DPOY btw?

Could it be AD?

Matter of fact could it actually be Wemby? Probably not. Too many losses.

Goburr.

Yup. Ad does this every game. Doesn’t matter who’s on the other side.



best defensive player in the world and it’s not close.

 

[Mister Meaner]

HAHAHAHAH THEM BOYS SALTYYYYYYYY

I really hate being classified as more than just fans of the same club as this sucka but realize these are facts.

Salt or no salt.

Can’t speak for any1 but I’m at peace with the streak ending to LeBron in the way it did. Them boys showed up for him & they too had their playoff rotation in.

Spoiler

Knicks started Precious again and had a third string pg subbing for JB & ‘twas was a dogfight until AD shut the water off

 

[Coupé It]

Goburr.

Oh God…

Wemby is already better than him defensively.

 

[lawdog1]

Yup.

[sohi 23]

Dudes in here said they wouldn’t trade Lauri for AD

 

[pmatic]

 

[T0INE]

The irony of Yanni and Harden being the only active players with this statline.

 

[D StaXX]

AD was incredible
Bron was also incredible on Brunson

 

[T0INE]

Chef snubbed

Who should he replace

Was just gonna ask this.

 

[Mister Meaner]

**** everyone I needed to lose won instead.

Sans Philly so thanks X xxpizzo & co

List has Kobe at 9. Not even gonna acknowledge that bs

 

[B Sox]

AD has been great defensively but he’s not winning it on a play-in team.

Goober is probably going to win it again, only to be an early exit from the playoffs while not being nearly as impactful per usual.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

He’s eligible for social security next year btw

 

[B Sox]

You don’t think he should be in the top 10?

 

[getback]

Yup. Ad does this every game. Doesn’t matter who’s on the other side.

He’d probably be more respected if he wasn’t as fragile

 

[Blue Mamba]

Gus calling the game with his shirt off.

Matter of fact could it actually be Wemby? Probably not. Too many losses.

He’s played in 95% of the games and they have the #14 defense. He’s obviously the exemplary modern defensive 5 but I’d be surprised.

It’ll be Gobert

Joker got some of the best defensive splits on the low

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Draymond

Just sad man.

Give it OG than.
