The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[pmatic]

I'll be watching the games regardless, but the stakes really aren't there to stoke excitement/engagement for the tournament. I don't think being casual fans will care about being crowned a tournament winner and players get more money (why do fans care about that?).

He really wifed a porn star. Maaaan. When she said, “you knew what I was”….and insinuated that because he not making the same money anymore, she had to OF….HELL

50 something year old, wilding on social media and putting their business out there. That’s some wild **** man

Old ho’s don’t change, they just get age that’s all…Good luck to the fellaz trying to hold down the online sex workers and strippers for the long run since it’s more acceptable these days

 

[B Sox]

Honestly this wasn’t THAT bad FOR HIM

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Think I'll be skipping the tournament. The NBA is trying to improve its product and that just doesn't sit right with me

Dudes who’ve been in the league 3-5+ years who shoot under 31% from 3 should not be allowed to hover around the 3 pt arc. Boys should be required to cut to the basket.

Dudes don’t even cut to the lane anymore (ironically the best shooter ever, Steph) does it more than anyone.

You’ll have 2-3 guys hover around the arc, while the ball handler is getting trapped. Just standing there not trying to get open.

It’s aggravating. To many terrible shooters are attempting 3s nowadays. Nothing wrong with shooting the rock if you’re “like” that but a lot of head coaches and assistant coaches are imparting confidence upon dudes who can’t shoot.

It’s weird

Brook Lopez had me so hot opening night (even though he’s an exceptional shooter so he’s different) but down the stretch, under 3 or 4 minutes left, Dame or Giannis got trapped. Either by the logo or scorers table and Brook sat in the corner 3 pt spot, the entire time and didn’t move a muscle.

Had he cut baseline or came towards Dame/Giannis, he would’ve had a high percentage shot. He just stood there

Harden's gonna have a hard time convincing Lil Baby to come see him in San Antonio of all places.

 

[pmatic]

We failed as a society for letting kids think Duke is cool.

 

[Coupé It]

They know what they’re doing with Cupper.

Blame USA basketball, Coach Calipari for essentially forcing Coach K, to finally recruit “John Wall types” to compete. That Duke Starting 5 from like 2014 with the cruddy Temps.
