THEE OFFICIAL 2019-2020 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: VICTORY LAP

[Based Jesus]

Just look at this superior spacing

 

[ninjahood]

Are the players still getting paid?

they thinking of clawing back salaries if this ish goes beyond indefinite to cancelled.

 

[darthska]

nah, thats describing what was going down..... that's like trying to describe a robbery suspect on a 9-11 call and acting reticent when da operrator asks you what he or she looks like.

*operator* "ok stay calm sir, what does da suspect look like"?

*you* ummm............ "

to think da kobe tragedy couldn't be topped....boy was we all wrong

That would be true if it weren't for the fact that your explanation is hinged on the very opinion you have that's in question. So running with your hypothetical narrative:

- you (as Da Ninja*): This Asian MFer robbed my place!

- operator (as Meth): Well, maybe. Let's not race bait. Tne nationality is less important than the tragedy, which is the robbery. Tons of other places have been robbed, too (similar to tons of other countries having a pandemic).

- you: WHAT?! Da MFer was Asian! That's just fax!

- operator: Please stop calling.

- you, at the bar describing all THAT (do you even drink? I don't know. Maybe you're just there to pick up chicks. Run with it): So anyways, that operator was on one. Tombout 'The tragedy is the focus, not the race..FOH!'

- me (I don't drink, but I'm definitely tryna smash): Sounds like it's pretty important to you that the robbery is pinned on an Asian, because you're still carrying that with you, even outside of that phone call.

- you: Nah, I'm just describing what happened.

*scene*

See? The narrative you've created is hinged on the opinion you have that's in question and got you banned. It's not like you're just describing that it was 2:00 in the afternoon and a blue car had just passed by. The fact that it's still raging in Wu Han is a fact, but placing so much emphasis on the opinion (not fact) that the origin has to be Wu Han since it's still raging there, that's a flawed correlation… and also unimportant to dealing with the here and now. Regardless of where it started, good ol' US of A is now #1 in the world in confirmed cases. So even if it didn't start here, which it could have, we're #1 now and that's the most important thing.

Just not in the NBA thread.

*I mean no disrespect on 'Da Ninja.' Just running with something you're known for, and the s/n you're known for.

P.S. If anyone needs a screenplay written, hmu.

THEY kill James harden for dribbling too much but eye see Stockton pounding the rock while his teammates stand around.

 

[HIM]

Just look at this superior spacing

yea P C H and addict4sneakers are offbase with the Stockton assist trutherism imo

I’d say CP3 and Kidd got more assist home cooking.

THEY kill James harden for dribbling too much but eye see Stockton pounding the rock whole his teammates stand around.

THEY?? You hated on CP3 for that for years until Harden started doing it for 20 seconds every possession

 

[darthska]

Oh, are we doing the whole 'It wasn't even good basketball back then' thing? How long till we push it all the way back to 'Wilt was playing against plumbers but today's players are playing against everyone in Avengers Endgame'?

THEY say Stockton juiced his stats but protect Bestbrook.

 

[MVP]

 

[Based Jesus]

THEY say Stockton juiced his stats but protect Bestbrook.

THEY say Stockton is just a glorified TJ McConell

 

[pmatic]

I remember when CP3 went down with injury in 2009 and Darren Collison came in and was still putting up big assist numbers as a rookie. I couldn't tell if it was the New Orleans stat keepers or the system juicing up the numbers.

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

THEY say Stockton is just a glorified TJ McConell

I never said that . I said if he played now he would be a notch better than TJ .

 

[ballinsam23]

THEY gonna say Larry Bird was just a notch better than Doug McDermott

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

THEY gonna say Larry Bird was just a notch better than Doug McDermott

On the college level it was close

[darthska]

Bruh, 'a notch better' = 'glorified'. It's 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other.

 

[Based Jesus]

Funny how the barbershop decides the black greats would always be better in the current era but the white greats would be coming off the bench. What could be the difference?

35/8/5 on 56/47/93

STOP WITH THE BISTEPHUAL PROPAGANDA!

Wardell was the 3rd best player on the floor at best that series.

Steph was better than Bron in the ‘17 finals. KD went nuts. Best 1-2 Punch ever.

 

[darthska]

Nah, not Doris.

 

[addict4sneakers]

 

[pmatic]

Have to wonder when the lease ends...

 

[B Sox]

I remember when CP3 went down with injury in 2009 and Darren Collison came in and was still putting up big assist numbers as a rookie. I couldn't tell if it was the New Orleans stat keepers or the system juicing up the numbers.

My son General Greivis led the league in assists for New Orleans in 2012-13.

 

[darthska]

Quote me right punk

I ain't said you said this, that, or the third.

I'm just saying 'a notch above' = 'glorified'.

 

[SpittaJetLife]

Bring them to Vegas

 

[darthska]

St. Louis Grizzlies.

(I'm an hour and a 1/2 from the Lou, and it's a great sport city.)
