The Official NBA Season Thread: Sunscreen and GOAT Talk

[HIM]

My Youtube Algorithm is truly a sicko’s dream (shoutout youtube premium). And I actually watched this little short youtube “doc” on Muggsy not too long ago. I didn’t know he was shot at with a shotgun when he was like 5.

This dude was the definition of proving everyone wrong at every level

 

[WASHED KING]

My guy mugsy was a lotto pick who was drafted alongside a 7’7 guy who shot 3 pointers.

And mugsy played up until the 2000s. Two years before Bron came into the league. Earl Boykin was undrafted and played a decade. IT2 is 5’7 and averaged 30ppg and led the Celtics to the ECF in Brons era.

And then there is JJ Barrera…..you know what…nvm

IT is 5’9. The difference between 5’9 and 5’3 is significant.

Half of the big men in Jordan’s era are playing in China in today’s NBA too. Across the board top to bottom the league is just better and that’s a fact.

Like let’s be real people were impressed Mike dunked from the Free throw line if any of us saw a 16 year old do that now we wouldn’t think twice about it.

Basketball players as a whole are just way better now than they were in the 90’s is just how evolution of the game works. This is acknowledged with every other era but for some reason it can’t be true for the 90’s.

You keep trying to force Kobe into a Jordan vs LeBron discussion.

Change that sign to top 10.

I’m choosing violence today

Nike basketball is basically Kobe inspired anyway.

Look at most of these new Nike shoes, all based off the Kobe aesthetic

On a sidenote....those temples going already

Nike needs to fast track the CC1

IDK who's better, but I think Lebron is the funnier liar

Those Ja 2s looks like a Kyrie takedown model.

I think its a good looking shoe in general, but I agree it does have takedown vibes for some reason.

I think it's the midsole, and frankly that colorway screams for kids that can't afford the sig model.

I like this for basketball reasons but also for basketball reasons I cant believe CP would take this role instead of being on a contender.

I think Cp3 will be great for Wemby. Perfect timing in their careers too.

This is the cp3 that can teach for real.

I agree. Sounds cliché, but my hope is that he is an extension of Pop on the floor. It will also bode well for Devin Vassell, who I think has All Star potential. Get some more spot up threes, and he looks like he put on a lot of muscle too.
