The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

Lebron lebroning in this presser

Saying he knew about Carmelo’s retirement last week

Breh

Generational liar, that he that's reasonable to believe.

Melo and Lebby have been boys for over a decade.

Lebron in the press conference

Dying.

I think LA figured out Joker tonight they will be fine?

Is he crying in the press conference? Jordan or Kobe would never.

 

[lawdog1]

Jokic Bros (except Nikola) going all out with some of LA’s finest blow and escorts tonight. What’s Serbian for “Godspeed Fellas”?

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Bron got Haynes to ask him about the roster to stir the pot.

 

[art vandelay]

Jokic to me is what Arvydas Sabonis should’ve been had he not come to the US during his prime.

 

[Nike Jordan]

 

[nelson999]

Malone & Boogie Cousins walked so Malone & Jokic could run

 

[BennyIll22]

Rui defense on joker for GM 5 could be the difference

 

[B Sox]

Interesting that Joker's "pathetic defense" has never seemed to be an issue in the playoffs.

 

[Peep Game]

Time to catch up on Barry and finally start Succession.

Fake MVP Jokic

Jokic MVPs = Nash MVPs

As long as it’s not the fraud Jokic there won’t be any issues.

Still a fraud

What is Jokic doing?

Besides FRAUDING

Jokic doesn't get slandered enough tbh

I just think it's kind of sick to put Jokic in the conversations with Bron, Giannis, KD, Steph.

He hasn't earned a seat at that table. Same applies for Joel.

Jokic is a top 2 player in the league RIGHT NOW?

You're willing to stand on that?

Schtick aside does having a better regular season halfway through make him a better player?

I think SGA is having a better 22-23 season individually than Steph but I haven't said he's a better player yet. I legit can't think of one thing Jokic has done to make me pick him over Giannis, Bron, KD, or Wardell.

Him and Joel tied pick whomever you're feeling better about that day. Better yet if AD healthy I'm taking him over Jokic.

I forgot all about Tatum. Tatum for sure better than Jokic.

Playoffs don't matter in this conversation since they don't matter for Jokic.

Jokic doesn't deserved to be any higher than 6.

I'm sick of this blatant media push for dude. He is not him.

I don't know what makes me more angry Bron not being up here or Jokic Being 1.

Same tier if you're going accolade to accolade.

Jokic doesn't belong in the conversation with Giannis. Their best shot at a chip was in the bubble when he was playing second fiddle to Jamal Murray.

Embiid has been comparable if not better than Jokic in the playoffs in his career. How did you reach this conclusion?

Is it because Embiid catches more heat when Philly loses in the playoffs? If so then I agree he does catch more slander and that is my main problem.

Jokic is 21-27

Embiid 22-22

THEY said I was wrong for comparing Jokic and Westbrooks empty triple doubles

Same COVID cup you use to justify Jokic accomplishing more in the playoffs than Embiid?

Just checking.

You're gunna have to pick a side today, either the bubble is fraudulent or Jokic is. Bubble chip doesn't count for the Lakers but for the Embiid vs Joker playoff comparison advancing in the bubble is a + for Jokic?

All this because y'all don't want to hold Jokic to the same standards as every other "superstar".

Sad indeed.

Jokic MVP conversation ends today.

Jokic winning MVP and being so heavily pushed to win this year has cheapened the award.

I said what I said.

Jokic has been defended by “I get DOMINAYTED” and whatever that front court fiasco Minnesota tried to stitch together all year and now we’re supposed to be impressed .

If y’all don’t stop huffing paint

Nah he's in a RICO.

Case takes longer, once Bron packs up Jokic though??? Boy.

Jokic is bad for the game.

Denver retiring Melo's number 15.

Jokic going to have to pick a new number.

 

[Moheezy]

A sweep man…I can’t believe it.

 

[freeze]

Lol where those weak *** dudes with receipts for us after round 2? Lmaooo suckassssss. Y'all cheeks.

Receipts deez nuts

 

[lawdog1]

There’s a lot of bad sports analysts working today but Nick Wright might be THE worst. Hack.

 

[dman14]

Still confused how anyone can watch jokic play and say to themselves:

"He ain't all that"

cause he wouldn't get buckets at the drew league. doesn't jump out the gym or athletic.

crazy thing is, he plays an old man game and probably will be just as effective as he gets older. very zbo esque

The pettiness…I love it.

 

[Coupé It]

If I'm the Lakers I don't offer anything. I see what the market dictates.

I don't think this will be a DS situation where he goes from 80 mil to nothing...but there is no way he should see a contract north of 15 mil IMO but he might get it just because of the payday folks are getting in the NBA.

There will be one dumb team that pays him close to what he’s asking.

And that’s where the Lakers have to be prepared to walk away.

I take back nothing.

Jokic bad for the game.

Jokic bad for the game.

Not even that Tatum is better than Jokic?

 

[elpablo21]

Siakim = Jokic same tier is Nasty

 

[BennyIll22]

Interesting that Joker's "pathetic defense" has never seemed to be an issue in the playoffs.

Jokic has graded out as a plus defender for multiple years now. It's just an assumption that people have at this point.

 

[Coupé It]

Siakim = Jokic same tier is Nasty

He has to be getting paid for this.

There’s just no way.

 

[freeze]

How long before they change the narrative to the Lakers wasn't pose to be here?? Oh 13th seed to wcf right?? They were always bums? They over achieved? Bron old? AD Also Dumb? Hands in Cargo Pants?

Come here, all of y'all.

Bron been swept 3 times in his career.
