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

[xxpizzo]

Locking up Brunson whenever he tries to force that switch but I digress. Mans been going with the motions on offense but his activity is there on the defensive end

Luckily you noy the coach lol

Nurse got that short leash on em hence why he continues to bench him

Tobias is the one who has to step on when non embiid mins come into play and he dont at $40M

Cant even give us 10 points

 

[Based Jesus]

Its funny seeing yall say he had 21 FTs

Maybe if yall werent down in the final 2 mins he wouldnt have been awarded 6 FTs (made 5)




21 FTs though
THEY not used to a Center wanting the ball end game to ice FTs

What's funny is seeing you put your faith in a man who we all know is gonna let you and your wallet down again

I’m not dismissing his play but it’s concerning. It’s not even a short leash, Nurse just going with the hot hand between Batum/Oubre/Tobi.

Oubre was efficient scoring even though he was a hot mess on defense. We only had like 2 made buckets the last half of the 4th. All our points came from the line. On the other end, Oubre kept fouling.

In Game 2, it was oubre who was benched because of his passive play on offense. Tobi hit a few 3s

In the end. I don’t mind it because we finally got options when one guy is struggling. Now with Melton hopefully back for good, it’s another person who can slot in

I can’t lie I couldn’t see the Lakers being down 0-3 again to Denver

I thought another year of being together would help and I thought Rui could be a legit X factor

 

[Kierris]

Lebron is the goat of losing in the finals lol..

Why don't you like King James, brother?

Yeah I've been in the camp of supporting Rui in hopes that he puts it all together consistently but he's a bum too.

Doesn't give him the excuse to intentionally injure Mitch.

Playoff basketball. Y'all prop up the 80s and 90s players for clotheslining people mid-air but then turnaround and try to vilify Himbiid... Knock it off.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Kyle Anderson??

Yes

 

[Based Jesus]

Someone sounds mad

I literally said it was funny

 

[ill steelo]

Aaron Gordon & Kyle Anderson are THE best “role players” in the league. Definition of stars in their roles. Difference makers

You gotta put AG on his own tier He’s reinventing a position. Reimagining what it means to be in the corner/dunker.

Even if you have a legit 5 you still have to show Jokic a crowd, so you have to leave AG’s body (or lose him because you’re ball watching like Bron ) and he is an agent of chaos.

Same exact role as Jerami Grant, COMPLETELY different impact

Draymond Embiid

Lebron: It's the score keeper's fault.

He can do everything except make a 3 and really that doesn’t even matter. Easily up there with Iggy as the premier role player

NBA/ESPN really got the Pacers v Bucks tipping off at 5:30 today lol.

 

[millzszn93]

I bet the lakers are kicking themselves for letting go of kcp all Ls for them since then

 

[sneeker]

Imagine tattooing yourself "the chosen one," chasing the ghost of MJ, self-proclaiming yourself "the King," and later "the GOAT," breaking the scoring record, nearly becoming a billionaire of basketball, and then when you lose, admitting it's just basketball? I

t's reminiscent of when he lost in Miami and said, "you broke dudes are going back to your problems, and I'm going to continue with my lavish lifestyle."


And contradicting a previous statement in which he said, it hurts less and he'd rather not make it to the Finals than lose at the finals.



So, what is it?

. Lebron now feeling how old superstars felt when they can't keep up anymore. Only difference is Bron can't admit that he is a has-been. No matter how part of the media trying to boost his ego or hype him up to be doing the same thing, he can't. Jokic and Gordon are just bullying him and not afraid of him.

5:30 est ?

why its a damn friday

 

[sneeker]

I agree... Ad is great but overrated. He's a very good 2 but we're deluding ourselves if we think he can carry the team once Bron is gone.

Both AD and Bron can't carry the Lakers. Lebby will restart his recruitment agency again.

Maga Porter Jr shooting damn near 60/50/100 this series

 

[addict4sneakers]

Yo 4:30 CST is wild

 

[sneeker]

If you consider MJs age you also have to consider Lebrons. This isn’t 2013 Miami Lebron he’s 40.

Neither would have been in their primes when it occurred

But but but people said that Lebby is still strong and keeps on improving. Are those statements A BIG LIE?
