The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[finessence]

what do the knicks have to do with any of this?

I just like seeing the Knick’s fanbase and organization in misery

 

[elpablo21]

People don't do the same song and dance about Zion's weight every single year?

That's news to me

 

[HIM]

That twitter dude wants us to celebrate zion being better than Julius Randle and Derozan?

weirdo behavior if you got a team of your own you can choose to support instead

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

All those guys on that list get clowned too lol

Bruv. That tweet didn’t accomplish what it set out to do

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Stick to your plan.
Anticipate, don't improvise.
Never yield an advantage.

Knicks have been playing ~.600 ball for about a year now.

I am miserable. The organization is in disarray. You must be enjoying all of this.

if lebron didn’t want the in season tourney title so badly nobody would be talking about Zion’s weight

I think a 4x NBA champ being hungrier than a guy with zero playoff appearances underscores the lack of professionalism discussion that everyone has been having.

All of his major stats are around his rookie year (career lows.)

He hasn’t been a superstar consistently. I support the bullying

 

[HIM]

He was hiding sodas in his toilet tank like it was dope. He needs an intervention.

 

[dacomeup]

Zion is supposed to be a clear Top 10, maybe Top 5 guy in the league at this point. That’s where all the frustration lies.

I just want this young man to be happy and healthy. He ain't bothering anyone so I don't know what people want.

Bruh...



Dude's a lunatic.

This is ridiculous.

Do they think they’re gym teachers or refs?

 

[N41D]

This is ridiculous.

Do they think they’re gym teachers or refs?

That's basically what he said in the presser after the game...

"we were talking **** all night, now he's mad and throws me a T?"

I think him and Williams got double techs last week for talking ****...

It's just goofy when it's not escalating.

 

[Based Jesus]

Years of refs handing out techs for fun and the league aint done something about it yet

 

[moonman818]

He ain't bothering anyone so I don't know what people want.

But then how would we feel better about our regular lives if we can't call a guy in better shape than 99.5% of America a fat ***** on the internet?

Just watched the Zion highlight package from last night. Many of the people in this thread are spot on, 5 years in and no semblance of a perimeter shot at all.

 

[don ramon]

why is the ref regulating the flow of the game and alllowing the defense to settle before the inbound?

nba refereeing needs an entire makeover. too much time wasting going on from refs making it about them and their control over players, coaches, etc.

every video review and decision has to last at least 4-5 minutes now with the refs scrambling back and forth between secaucus and one another like a ******* security blanket. and they still find a way to do it wrong

20 seconds and momentum wasted just to inbound the ball

Weight concerns are valid but he doesn’t need anything outside of the paint. 58% on 2s with a high foul rate. Only thing that can stop him is himself. Ask the twolves last night.

 

[datznasty]

This is the most important election of my lifetime, perhaps slightly edging out 2008. Results in 4 hours.

This right here should be $250k fine on refs.

You’re ******* with the game now.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Sheeeeesh

 

[dacomeup]

Literally right after he has a good game
