The Official NBA Thread: Lakers Fire Darvin Ham

[jpzx]

NBA doing in game Fan Duel ads and yet they’re mad at Johntay Porter for trying to grift the system

The NBA going in on gambling and a guy betting against his own props are two different things

 

[Brownstone]

So the Magics very first playoff game and you think the writing is on the wall?

I keep forgetting about first round hot takes.

Still think it's not a sweep?

Sit down when grown folks is talkin

We've found this year's BucEm.

We been calling Rudy a fraud since he was tricking ppl on the Jazz and made to look like he's playing twister on a myriad of occasions.

Sixers defense on Brunson has been incredible

uhm....you know porter was actually effecting the outcome of the bets by pulling himself out of games so he could have his friend hit the under (allegedly)

long before online gambling became a thing, players were told to not engage in gambling

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Rudy is the same guy,

the only dif is he doesn't have to cover for a permiter group of Donavan Mitchell, Joe Ingels and Mike Conley anymore.

No one is convincing a Lakers-centric, Primetime game-centric watchers anything about Gobert. The takes thinking Gobert is wildly overrated is laughable when you watch what's going on every game. Terribly off base. This thread been exposing themselves the last 3 years with assumptions about anything Wolves related, tbh. Gobert's impact is significant and filters out. The perimeter defense isn't filtering in to help Rudy. Doesn't take very many games to see that, but Rudy's personality, hatred across the league and soft perception are overruling how great he is on defense. He sets the tone for the entire defense. AD ain't doing that. Gobert disrupted plenty of dudes on the perimeter Saturday, so idk wth yall watching.

If DPOY, is who can hang with guarding 1-5, sure..give it to AD, but that's an extremely vanilla, surface level take. I don't even rock with Rudy like that, but he's on my favorite and he's impressed the hell out of me this season. I respect what he does.

Let's not even get started on the audicity of AD defenders bringing up the playoffs, you know where AD might get swept......again

Nick Nurse is a war time consigliere .

not good at developing young guys, but few guys better and shutting down the opposing star.

only game 2 but I’m confident saying Cavs in 5 . Nothing shows me Orlando has a chance

Your parents tell you not to drink or do drugs too right

Using the podcast to showcase his coaching chops.

I’ve I was JJ, I’d stick with podding and doing TV over coaching the Hornets, but good luck to him.

Magic might not crack 90 again

 

[frshstunna]

I love basketball but I really don’t want to watch this Cavs/Magic series

Just an uninteresting matchup and super nastee ball…And I’m saying this as a Magic fan

 

[ballinsam23]

Knew this would be the Maxey flu game. Kids not missing.

 

[brian8598]

They should play off Tobias Harris like he's Shaq on the perimeter.

Also, I'm never buying a Google phone just to spite this damn commercial. I've seen it approximately 1 billion times in the last week.

 

[8pm at msg]

We gotta start attacking Embiid more

 

[Based Jesus]

Get this thug out of here

 

[antidope]

SVG must think that job is up for grabs with all that caping good lord.

 

[mrswagtastic]

Donte not like that
