The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[QU!K]

On a broken leg/knee and no excuses

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

When was he ever called an elite defender?

Jokic is the best offensive big of all time, best passer of all time, best dressed Nba player, elite defender and back to back to back MVP. He should be on everybody's radar. He's that good.

I'm sure this is due to the Lakers leading the league in drives & paint touches per game and nothing else.

Embiid telling truths. Society won’t like that.

Kawhi's been averaging a ho-hum 28-7-4 on 50/40/90 splits since mid January...

Actually been shooting almost 50% from 3 in that time

Man if Harden walks, I’d LOVE Kawhi next to Jo

Joel spends a ton of time poppin off about other guys accomplishments for someone that ain’t ever won anything.

And he’s had a couple of off nights - for him - over the last week or so. Think fatigue may have been a factor. His workload is heavy.

"I never won anything so why do people have expectations of me?" is certainly an interesting way to advocate oneself for an award

Think that’s just who Embiid is, but having people like Morey and Hanlen in his orbit probably makes it even worse.

Yea he's never really been shy about it either

This **** really grinding Embiid's gears

Jokic enjoying some Serbian roast in the morning minding his business reading The Athletic

 

[Maximus Meridius]

If Embiid really got that dawg in him he would cook that man again tonight. If Jokic is really the alltime great they paint him as he would redeem himself. Legacy game for both.

I hope Embiid wins MVP so everyone can shut up about it already

[Mister Meaner]

Dallas in a precarious situation with the games left.

Should the MavKnicks trick tonite’s game off, 1-6 to finish ain’t a stretch.

Spoiler

5-3 I’m hoping for.

Already close to my preszn prediction of 45 so I’m getting a lil’ greedy.

26th in drives, but #1 in free throws?? So when are all these fouls comings if they ain't driving. Math not mathing. Dudes told me warriors aren't getting fouled because they don't drive enough..

 

[sneeker]

They won their fourth last year, it’s not like this the big 3 Celtics. Might be annoying but he has the right.

he doesn't have the right since those championships were due to Curry and KD. he got lucky that he rode with the greatest 3 point shooter of all time. put Curry out of the equation and he won't have any of those.

I picked Luka to make the finals this year
