The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[DLF]

The Denver No Excuse Nuggets better hope they don't run into GSW this spring

Giannis is European

 

[Coupé It]

Jumping to save Jokic like y'all did Rachel Nichols.

EYE see it.

Oh you mean Rachel Nichols who was in the room talking to top chief Klutch advisor Adam Mendelsohn?

Hmmmmmmm

 

[trynafeelmink]

ya'll fighting a losing battle with these dudes, just wait for Steroid Era Vlade Divac to get bounced in the second round again.... and watch as the Nuggets roster goes from best young team in the league, great depth to a bunch of role players & a bad coach.

Like clockwork

Watched Melo get called a career loser for not being able to get past prime Kobe, Duncan & Bron..... but THEY are so understanding when it comes to the 3X MVP & supposed "best player in the league" getting put in the spin cycle yearly

Guess who really saved Rachel Nichols....

Every other superstar catches slander BUT Jokic and I do not understand why. Bron, Giannis, KD, Steph, Luka, Embiid, etc.

All those tier 1 guys get scrutinized for their play in the playoffs and not winning HOWEVER it's supposedly ok for Jokic to continue to waltz away with awards and not win a thing and no one bats an eye?

Y'all can't be that scared of his brothers ain no way.

But I’ve been telling you the nuggets have no excuses not to be there at the end this year. Everyone is healthy. You’re just so thirsty to jump the gun. That’s how you ended up in jail last summer

 

[wavycrocket]

They will probably give it to Jokic again next year too cause why not?

Jokic does not catch the same not winning a chip slander every other player with multiple MVP's would be catching.
Honestly Podcast P takes more heat than Jokic and he told yall this week he isn't even a #1 player on a championship team.

Bron was a 2X mvp, who went out in the second round. In fact, it wasn’t until LeBron’s 3rd mvp, that he won his first championship.

Yall eager as hell with Jokic

And Bron caught absolute h*** until he got 1. Not a single player has caught that type of heat he had to deal with.

But when we try to throw a little TINY bit of heat at Jokic we're wrong?

 

[nelson999]

Looks like if there were a pickup game of a bunch of cloned Dillon Brooks'

 

[DripNick]

I would rather see Jokic not win MVP

 

[addict4sneakers]

 

[Mister Meaner]

The greates Lb4Lb ever never won a ring but his place amongst the greats is solidified beyond measure.

The Answer that is, ofc.

He’s sort of an outlier I will admit as few can say they’ve had nearly the cultural impact as AI.

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

Ironically enough, had my most fire Afghani dinner ever in Beantown too

afghani??
u afghan fam?

assalamalaikum wrorra!

i know the dmv is poppin wit afghan food never knew boston had it like that

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

I dare silver to fine ja. Them hollows are free for commish

legit lol'd at this

 

[DripNick]

Jokic is the #1 seed in the West.

But i thought the West was "so mid". I guess it only counts when it's serving the Nikola agenda

 

[amitt5504]

Yea Embiid has a lot love for Jokic.

Jokic to Philly confirmed. Double C PnR

 

[DripNick]

Watched Melo

Speaking of the King of NY

 

[Benny Hinn]

It’s gonna get nasty in here when Jokic wins another MVP then immediately gets run off the court by the Warriors again. Can’t wait…

 

[addict4sneakers]

3 quarter awards

MVP - Giannis
ROY - Banchero
MIP - Lauri
COY- mike brown
DPOY - twolves front office

[osh kosh bosh]

That stretch of time where Nash and Dirk were winning MVP was filled with dog whistles White people must've been so confused

low key some of the nastiest talk came from white dudes.


I remember some wild sounding sports radio segments, people working through some inferiority complexes.
no one has less respect for white basketball players than a uhm certain kind of white guy.

 

[akajae]

All this because Jokic is white lol

 

[akajae]

Dirk was getting killed when he won MVP and got bounced in the first round.

How many Euro guys are "the man" to be catching heat anyway? Did Draymond give examples?

 

[d3si]

Geez, saw this on discord

 

[DripNick]

Geez, saw this on discord

Thank you so much, was waiting for it since last night. Would you be able to reframe it and focus on the close up celebration?
