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

So happy not seeing harden there

Pardon my ignorance, I’m still learning what ALA, MLGA and HiP mean

MFFL = Mavs For ****in Life??

 

[Nike Jordan]

I don't just call him Crown Vic because it's cooler than "Wemby". He's got the crown next.

He played on a team that won a title the second they got rid of him

Kawhi was a huge upgrade over DDR but tbf to him, a handful of things happeened: bron left the east, raptors got Marc gasol who was still good, and pascal started to emerge as a two way player

That said, doubt a demar-lead raps beats the ‘19 dubs, even if they were hobbled

Heat should get Markelle Fultz. They need a backup point guard and they’ll at least do something besides sign Alec Burks

Yup.

Kawhi is obviously much better than DeRozan but it’s clearly a much different situation in 2019. Acting like everything was exactly the same is funny.

Bron eliminated them 3 straight years and now was no longer there

Kangz need to go get another bigger body of some sort. They still have the contracts and picks that can get them somebody. Just not sure who it is.

Feel like they’ve been linked to Kuzma for a while. He’d make sense off the bench.

Raw averages, certainly the best way to compare basketball players in 2024

 

[dacomeup]

This man is talking about how he doesn’t get paid for international ball . he really is all about the bag

 

[moe200069]

Do the kings have cap room for Paul Reed?

Feel like that’d be a mutually good landing spot for players and team

Wemby got a backup career in the circus. Legend in 2 games

Those stats are collected for a reason though. One could argue that PG has never been supremely better than Derozan over the course of their careers.

If the “raw” averages didn’t matter, then, they wouldn’t be tabulated in the first place. Those averages determine end-of-the-season awards, all-NBAs, etc, which determine max contracts and whatnot

This is exactly who Kings fans and media have been talking about acquiring.

Kings still have the MLE and bi-annual exception.

Yea, PG has double the All NBA teams, 4 All defensive teams and a Top 5 MVP finish. I don’t know what “supremely” means to you PG has had a much better career than DDR. The people looking at All NBAs clearly agree
