The Official NBA Season Thread: USA Setting Up for a SFA

[WASHED KING]

Oh my god how dare Lebron play basketball while he's on the court.

 

[shogun]

Weird how most people on espn were saying scumbag draymond put gobert in a headlock. Are they blind? It was obviously a chokehold.

Oh my god how dare Lebron play basketball while he's on the court.

Word…that whole notion of stat padding is wild. If a guy is on the court is he not supposed to get a rebound or score a bucket?

 

[headdetective]

Crying to refs, not playin d ain’t basketball bro

If that’s acceptable to yall and yall call that hoopin, u win.

[getback]

Know what it means, man. Was just surprised to see it. But yeah, the nba thread is going to always be filled with nba related stories. Having one of your well known players trying to choke someone out isn’t good for the nba.

Choke him out? Lol.

It was just a little scrum. Not a single punch thrown either.

 

[WASHED KING]

I forgot Jordan never said anything to refs my bad.

 

[headdetective]

Irrelevant and you reaching

 

[headdetective]

Mike played D and was on the defensive first team majority of his career.

Cats bring up Mike when they have no legs.

 

[WASHED KING]

Jordan's defense is the most overrated thing about his game.

 

[headdetective]

You got it bro

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Look like he was doing a tik tok dance

Kangz script hits again.

Sabonis bodied AD all night

leaving AD off is the funniest part of this

 

[ill steelo]

Lmao wild man

Big O taking work off his block and it was a b2b. Rookie

 

[aepps20]

The most disappointing thing about Dray's mess to me is for a guy that is supposedly all about the team and winning he sure does a ton of selfish things that cost them wins. As his skills diminish the strategy of letting Dray be Dray isn't working and is turning into a net negative. Easy to yap when you have Steph on your team. Part of me believes that Dray's antics with Poole were premeditated to hopefully secure a long-term last bag. The Warriors handling of Dray as his skills decline has been downright awful. Say what you want about Poole but he was a huge reason they won a chip a year ago. Warriors are talented but they no longer have overwhelming talent where they can afford to lose games because of Dray being selfish.

 

[addict4sneakers]

It’s wild AD with all his ability had a 9 point game. WILD

 

[Mister Meaner]

 

[D StaXX]

I have no words for AD. It's really unbelievable that a 39 year old Bron is still the best player.
If he's hurt, he should sit cause games like last night just aren't acceptable for a player of his caliber.

 

[ill steelo]

I wouldn’t even care about AD playing like **** in b2b’s but he also had issues playing on 1 day of rest in the playoffs.

These injuries have aged him like milk. He was the most reliable box score guy in the league once upon a time.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Terrible game from AD. But it always gets blown out of proportion. He's really only had 2 bad games this season. Having a monster year besides that

 

[xxpizzo]

not many positives last night besides maybe Springer ?

Sixers need a secondary ball handler ASAP for those non-Maxey minutes

everytime we play the Celtics it seems like the game plan for them is to get those 3s up with drives and kick outs - Whole damn team can shoot them lol ..

50 3 point attempts to Sixers 30

Embiid also been playing like dookie once again at end of games also dont help

its been what 7-8 years an my MVP still cant figure out a double team

 

[nick.]

If he's hurt, he should sit cause games like last night just aren't acceptable for a player of his caliber.

Last night is probably a game he sits in the past but he has to his the 65 game threshold now to be award eligible

 

[pmatic]

AD has the first bad game since Opening Night (not counting the game he had to leave early) and everybody is killing him.

Poole pushed him first after talking crazy and Rudy had his hands on Klays neck. You guys truly hate this man

He’s not winning any awards if he keeps playing hurt tho but we’ll see
