The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Begins | Embiid Debut | Klay Return

Cali and Florida is full of nothing but fair weather fans for all sports

Outside of real dudes on NT like tupac003 nako xl MVP my only personal encounter with fans in those places has been negative. Makes me mad because teams like the Lakers and Warriors have such strong traditions of winning and success that they should have better fans at their games or not price out the real fan. Watching Kim K eye down LeBron in the Warriors series made me legit want to throw up. No one wants to see these celebs that don't care posting up at the games for likes on social media

i remember watching that game. if i recall, klay who had already been sidelined visited him and gave him some encouraging words.

why say it’s the first time if it already happened in 2021? why not just say it’s the second time? These low iq tweeters sometimes

Basically #ESPNstats. He listed off the biggest superstars of the last 20 years lol

I was trying to ignore it in my mind but, like yeah, it happened in 2021 so the stat becomes moot lol

This ratings concern trolling is weird. Who cares? Do you work for the league office?

Correct. They talked about it during the broadcast tonight. Said Murray really appreciated what Klay said to him.

Just being negative to be negative, one of the core values of this thread lol

I would usually ignore it but the way dude worded that tweet made me so irrationally annoyed

 

[aepps20]

I know ratings are important but I want the teams playing the best ball in the playoffs going at it. I don't want medicore teams with big names playing for the championship

 

[dman14]

Watching this series, you gotta believe the bubble was fake. This just confirms it.

KCP playing with urgency. he trying win a legit ring and get a parade

I can’t wait to watch it.

Full Basketball will be on display.

It just saddens me that others won’t watch it.

That’s was my point about the ratings.

ESPN will make up the dumbest stats so it’s the “first” time something happened. Baseball is the absolute worst. “First time on July 13th that a left handed batter hit three pop flys to right field at 5:18PM”

Exactly.

I just care about the BEST playing the BEST.

That’s what should matter.

Was talking bout the few posts that were like a drive by

"Nobody cares about that ****"

etc.

NBA NT thread is as principled as they come. even when we know we're wrong, we'll still double down

are you serious? it affects future storylines and how the nba presents themselves. it takes a real damn good squad to be able to overcome the nba even if it draw low ratings (spurs). if this draw bubble level ratings, nba going to be concerned.

why do you think certain cities/teams do not make the finals? you think it is just because of their play?

 

[akajae]

Dub Nation only celebrates rings & parades


Winning against the Lakers would have meant nothing without the ring b

So you only started celebrating

My oh my how I miss them Spurs

 

[Coupé It]

S*** - I was watching the first half Real Madrid vs Barcelona Final four yesterday at work.

RM came back but I couldn’t watch the second half.

If you love the game you love the game..
