The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[Based Jesus]

Look man. I know yall just got your guy. He’s been great. Feels good not to have to root for elfrid Payton

But he’s a foul grifter too. Great player but let’s be honest with ourselves. The same stuff yall hate Trae young for, he gets away with. Low swoop drives like Embiid and harden. It is what it is.

I'm not saying he doesn't hunt for fouls, everyone does. I'm saying it's dishonest to suggest he's as prolific as Embiid, Trae or Harden. When the hell would any of them score 60 on less than 10 FT? It wouldn't occur to them to try.

Some of the best perceived matchups we've had across the board 1st round in a while it feels like and the Knicks and Sixers is the only viable one left

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

2 annoying fan bases with the biggest grifters in the league complaining back and forth about the same stuff is the worst

Then you got 1a in that annoying fan base group instigating

This **** sounding like a NY home game

Kawhi’s days are numbered
Only a matter of time before he calls it quits

Bucks had a horrible season. Inconsistencies, coaching dysfunction, injuries throughout. Wasted year for Dame/Giannis

They should have never fired Bud. Probably should’ve just kept the core they had in place with Chris, Giannis and Holiday. They probably would’ve been a decent matchup with the Celtics. Dame brought nothing. And Doc ain’t it coaching wise.

He fleeced Ballmer with that contract yikes

Wonder what they do with PG? They sorta gotta keep him now. Also, PG3 was the more available of the two and probably should’ve gotten the bag.

One of the game's legends also hangs it up...

I felt like she came in 2008. Had a big crush. She’ll miss the game as it hopefully grows and blows up.

Dante gonna give me a heart attack wit these misses

This is the only series worth watching. Bucks/Indy is a distant second

High level hoops from both teams.

Officiating has been fine. Play ball.

You see what cheaper prices can do for a fan base

Tix were damn near 50% less than the Garden
