The Official NBA Season Thread: Rank the NBA Cities

[fluid hips]

tbh the only (active) soccer stars who are globally known are ronaldo and messi
but globally i don't even know if lebby is known like that.
soccer influence is different

 

[getback]

Agreed that he and Jaylen can do more. But I can't fault them for not doing more right now either.

Leave Jaylen out of this. He has a rap beef with Nike to settle.

For a city with the highest rent in the country, seems like NYC has turned into a cesspool of immigration-influenced violence and retail theft so bad all the stores have closed/left. At least if you let some of the MAGA-ts tell it

Mbappe is definitely there at this stage

i highly doubt that

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

Bron bigger than Messi.

Don’t ask me to explain my position either.

 

[rolaholic]

i highly doubt that

How come?

He's the best player in the world playing for the biggest team in the world

His name recognition/fame is 6 continents deep at this point

he has no cultural or societal impact
people were getting the ronaldo haircut back then

does mbappe have any of that influence

You initially said 'globally known' though which I what I replied to, nothing about influence

He's been in Time's 100 for a few years though

Josh Jackson

Kevin Knox

Yall Knicks dudes were loving some damn Kevin Knox.

A lot of us didnt like the pick. Especially with MPJ falling, SGA, and both Bridges right there for the taking.

Then he'd show some flashes once every 10 games and we'd be pulled back in overrating our young player per usual.

These "scouts" tricked us

 

[frshstunna]

I thought Knox could be solid…Doesn’t have that dawg in him tho

 

[wavycrocket]

Blast from the past. Darrell Armstrong used to play hard all time time

 

[JMB10215]

To this day I still dont understand how Josh Jackson became a bust. 6'7, athletic, and could create his own shot. Dude really dissapointed me. I remember watching his Mcdonalds All American game and he looked better than Tatum to me at that time. They both were top tier wing prospects

BIG LEEMELONE This was a solid listen. He really pulled himself up by his bootstraps to make it to the league.

What are your thoughts on DA?

 

[MajinZuub]

Jackson had 0 moves and didn’t work on developing his game at all.

He went to the same hs as me and my little brother knows people that were cool with him and it didn’t seem like he had the best head on his shoulders either.

Got to see him play a couple times in hs and nothing stood out to me. Ayton on the other hand I was wrong about. Dude was way more agressive/played mean and it just disappeared

To much tree. I too, thought he’d be good. Mans just couldn’t stay off the dope

He reminded me of Josh Childress. Ended up being Josh Childress

 

[akajae]

huh?

*googles

ooooh
using racialized insults on the sneaker forum over Kyrie iriving.

Not gonna lie…thought it was a reference to a villain from those nerdy superhero movies lol

Just finished watching. What are your thoughts on the comments he made at the 55:59 mark? Would be interested in getting your perspective

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Luka look like he actually working out now.





MVP season loading

 

[Moheezy]

Leave Jaylen out of this. He has a rap beef with Nike to settle.

alright, I’m backing off Jaylen until he signs with Anta.

 

[wavycrocket]

Speaking of New York Basketball…..Kiyan Anthony really is looking like a first round prospect .





When this ***** start windmilling?
